Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-9853:
--------------------------------------
Another thing we should consider is to do the new API methods, which will
receive a Context object, rather than a bunch of individual args. Adding new
args to methods will be much easier this way.
> Edit the CP API: Make 'plugin's Interfaces for admending behaviors

> Key: HBASE-9853
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9853
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Umbrella
> Components: Coprocessors
> Reporter: stack
>
> Current CP API has deviated from original intent allowing Observers observe
> (and on occasion amend data) and Endpoints for adding custom query handling
> over hbase data. CP API has evolved to include a raft of APIs that allow
> modifying base behaviors -- how we do compactions, flushes, etc -- that are
> not 'coprocessor'-type functions.
> This issue came of devs discussing figuring how to stabilize the CP API. The
> thought is to return its scope to that of the original intent and to add new
> plugins Interfaces whereever we want to allow changing base behaviors (WAL
> writing, etc.).
> This is an umbrellas issue. The redo would happen as subtasks.
