Break out applib and JDO services into modules

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    • Improvement
    • Status: Closed
    • Major
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • objectstore-jdo-1.5.0, core-1.5.0
    • core-1.6.0
    • Core, Persistence JDO
    • None

    Description

      ... so that in future these can be released independently of core; and to reduce configuration (isis.properties file).

      Some principles:

      • minimize the amount of configuration required; by exploiting @DomainService annotation, in many cases it should be sufficient to simply add the appropriate module to the classpath, and let the service be auto-reigstered.
      • "on the other hand", don't (without some safety checks) want to start automatically registering services that might substantially change behaviour of the system. For example, the JDO services - audit, command, publishing - all require explicit configuration in isis.properties. Automatically registering these might be "too much, too soon".

      Thus:

      • In services containing only programmatic or hidden services ("system services, repos") then these should be annotated with @DomainService; thus they are configured and registered automatically if added to the classpath.
      • In services containing only "contributions" can (probably safely enough) be annotated with @DomainService; thus they are configured and registered automatically if added to the classpath.
      • any menu UI services should NOT be annotated with @DomainService, because the developer may want to have more fine-grained control on how the UI appears.

      ~~~~~~
      No change for the following services:

      core request-scoped services; already annotated with @DomainService, and so always available

      • CommandContext (no UI; applib implementation; populated by runtime if available) - UPDATED JAVADOC
      • Bulk.InteractionContext (no UI; applib implementation; not used by runtime) - UPDATED JAVADOC
      • Scratchpad (no UI; applib implementation; not used by runtime) - UPDATED JAVADOC
      • QueryResultsCache (no UI; applib implementation; not used by runtime) - UPDATED JAVADOC

      core singleton services; already annotated with @DomainService, and so always available

      • MementoServiceDefault (no UI; runtime implementation; used implicitly by runtime for commands) - UPDATED JAVADOC
      • BookmarkServiceDefault (no UI; runtime implementation; used implicitly by runtime for commands) - UPDATED JAVADOC, now non UI, separated out out contributions
      • XmlSnapshotServiceDefault (no UI; runtime implementation; not used by runtime) - UPDATED JAVADOC
      • ClassDiscoveryServiceUsingReflections (no UI; applib implementation; not used by runtime) - UPDATED JAVADOC
      • ClockService (no UI; applib implementation; not used by runtime) - UPDATED JAVADOC

      ~~~
      These services should changed to be annotated annotated with @DomainService (because JDO is now core):

      • IsisJdoSupportImpl (no UI; not used by runtime) - NOW ANNOTATED; UPDATED EXAMPLE APPS (isis.properties, *SystemInitializer for integ tests
      • EventBusServiceJdo (no UI, used by runtime if available) - NOW ANNOTATED; UPDATED EXAMPLE APPS (isis.properties, *SystemInitializer for integ tests

      ~~~
      IsisJdoSupport API should move from the jdo-applib to applib; - DONE.

      ~~~~~~
      The following are new (Maven) modules.

      Some notes:

      • If a service can be used by runtime, then its API is defined in applib; the module therefore contains only the impl. Most of the modules below fall into this category.
      • If a service is completely standalone from the framework, then it defines its own API (in an "applib" submodule) and its own impl. An example of this is isis-module-settings, which defines AppSettings and UserSettings.

      isis-module-wrapper (used by integtestsupport)

      • WrapperFactoryDefault (no UI; already @DomainService; rename core-wrapper implementation); DONE, UPDATED pom.xml in example apps;

      isis-module-command-jdo - MOVED, UPDATED.

      • CommandServiceJdo (used by runtime if available, so API in applib) - DECIDED NOT TO MAKE INTO @DomainService FOR NOW.
      • CommandServiceJdoContributions (UI, not used by runtime)
      • CommandServiceJdoRepository (no UI, supporting service for ...Contributions); - NOW ANNOTATED AS @DomainService; UPDATED EXAMPLES
      • BackgroundCommandServiceJdo (UI visible, not used by runtime but prereq for background service) - NOW ANNOTATED AS @DomainService; UPDATED EXAMPLES
      • BackgroundCommandServiceJdoContributions (UI visible, not used by runtime)
      • BackgroundCommandServiceJdoRepository (not visible, supporting service for ...Contributions); - NOW ANNOTATED AS @DomainService; UPDATED EXAMPLES

      isis-module-audit-jdo - MOVED, UPDATED.

      • AuditingServiceJdo (used by runtime if available, so API in applib) - DECIDED NOT TO MAKE INTO @DomainService FOR NOW
      • AuditingServiceJdoContributions (UI, not used by runtime)
      • AuditingServiceJdoRepository (not visible, supporting service for ...Contributions); - NOW ANNOTATED AS @DomainService; UPDATED EXAMPLES

      isis-module-background

      • BackgroundServiceDefault (used by runtime if available, so API in applib; requires BackgroundCommandService); CAN'T SAFELY BE A @DomainService BECAUSE OF DEPENDENCY ON impl. of BackgroundCommandService

      isis-module-publishing-jdo

      • PublishingServiceJdo (used by runtime if available, so API in applib)
      • PublishingServiceJdoContributions (UI, not used by runtime)
      • PublishingServiceJdoRepository (not visible, supporting service for ...Contributions); - NOW ANNOTATED AS @DomainService; UPDATED EXAMPLES

      isis-module-publishingeventserializer-ro

      • RestfulObjectsSpecEventSerializer (not visible, used by publishing service); - NOW ANNOTED AS @DomainService; UPDATED EXAMPLES

      isis-module-devutils (not used by runtime, standalone); DONE

      • applib
        > DeveloperUtilitiesService
      • impl
        > DeveloperUtilitiesServiceDefault (metamodel impl)

      isis-module-settings (not used by runtime, standalone); DONE

      • applib
        > ApplicationSettingsServiceRW
        > UserSettingsServiceRW
      • impl-jdo
        > ApplicationSettingsServiceJdo (UI, not used by runtime)
        > ApplicationSettingsServiceHidden (not UI, not used by runtime)
        > UserSettingsServiceJdo (UI, not used by runtime)
        > UserSettingsServiceHidden (not UI, not used by runtime)

      in addition:

      • move IsisJdoSupport APi into core-applib *; DONE; HAVE REMOVED jdo-applib completely... updated pom.xml for example apps.
      • EventBusServiceDefault can be deprecated, since its subclass EventBusServiceJdo is always available; DONE
      • have decided to leave ExceptionRecognizerCompositeForJdoObjectStore to be explicitly registered; likelihood that this will require customisation in some cases. (used by runtime if available)
