ppkarwasz opened a new issue, #214:
URL: https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j-transform/issues/214
The `log4j-converter-plugin-descriptor` module serves a very specific and
niche purpose:
* Converting `Log4j2Plugins.dat` files to and from JSON.
* Filtering GraalVM reachability metadata to align with the content of
`Log4j2Plugins.dat`.
Given the narrow scope of this functionality and the already crowded
`org.apache.logging.log4j` namespace, it may not warrant being published as a
standalone artifact.
### Proposal:
1. **Move functionality into `log4j-transform-cli`:**
The ability to convert `Log4j2Plugins`.dat files to and from JSON is
unlikely to be useful to external Java applications. It would be more
appropriate to house it within a dedicated internal package or subcommand of
`log4j-transform-cli`.
2. **Rename `log4j-converter-config` to `log4j-config-converter`:**
The current name was chosen for consistency with
`log4j-converter-plugin-descriptor`. With the latter being moved, renaming the
former improves alignment with Log4j Core 3’s configuration module naming
convention (e.g., `log4j-config-properties`, `log4j-config-yaml`). The new name
better reflects its purpose and improves coherence across the configuration
ecosystem.
