------------------------------------

             Summary: specify format and semantics of 'filter' parameter in 
MicroKernel API
                 Key: OAK-75
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-75
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: mk
            Reporter: Stefan Guggisberg


the following MicroKernel methods contain a 'filter' string parameter:

- getJournal
- diff
- getNodes

through the filter an API client could e.g. specify:

- special 'meta' properties to be included (e.g. ":hash")
- glob patterns on the names of properties/child nodes to be included/excluded
- path filter (for getJournal and diff)

format/detailed semantics TBD, here's an initial proposal (json):

{
  "path" : "/some/path",
  "incl" : [ ":hash", "*" ],
  "excl" : [ "tmp*" ]
}

name filter patterns should ideally be the same 
format as specified for JCR Node.getNodes/getProperties.
