[jira] Created: (GERONIMO-2757) Enhance plugin schema to allow for multiple versions of a plugin
Enhance plugin schema to allow for multiple versions of a plugin Key: GERONIMO-2757 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2757 Project: Geronimo Issue Type: Improvement Security Level: public (Regular issues) Components: Plugins Affects Versions: 2.0 Reporter: Paul McMahan plugins-1.1.xsd currently allows for a single version of a plugin to be described from within a element. For example, if there were a different version of plugin for each version of geronimo then the plugin catalog would like something like: org.apache.geronimo.configs/ca-helper-tomcat/1.1/car 1.1 http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-1.1 [...] org.apache.geronimo.configs/ca-helper-tomcat/1.2/car 1.2 http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-1.2 [...] org.apache.geronimo.configs/ca-helper-tomcat/2.0/car 2.0 http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-2.0 [...] http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-1.1 http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-1.2 http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-2.0 Plugins are usually not compatible across versions of Geronimo for various reasons, probably the most prominent of which is Geronimo's reliance on serialized java objects in CAR files. Browsing a catalog that contains a element for each version of Geronimo's plugins from the admin console or from the CLI would be confusing because of the many (seemingly redundant) entries. Therefore the collection of Geronimo plugins is distributed across a set of catalogs, one per version of Geronimo, and each version of Geronimo points at a version specific plugin catalog. Modifying the plugin schema so that a element can allow the plugin's module-id and source-repository to depend on the would allow there to be much fewer entries in a consolidated plugin catalog. A plugin catalog that is created using this modified schema might look something like (this is just a sample) : org.apache.geronimo.configs/ca-helper-tomcat/1.1/car http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-1.1 org.apache.geronimo.configs/ca-helper-tomcat/1.2/car http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-1.2 org.apache.geronimo.configs/ca-helper-tomcat/2.0/car http://geronimo.apache.org/plugins/geronimo-2.0 [...] Also, for this to work a customized list of elements would probably have to be supported inside the element as well, since those might also be version specific. Once this improvement is in place it will be easier to maintain Geronimo's plugin collection since each version of Geronimo won't require a separate catalog. Also it will be easier for end users and other external sources to refer to Geronimo's plugin catalog since the repository URL will no longer be version specific. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
