Make default resource filter configurable using metatype #86

Closed evra closed 9 years ago

evra commented 9 years ago

Default implementation of the ResourceFilter interface (AllResourceFilter) has a hardcoded service filter (&(objectClass=*)(!(com.eclipsesource.jaxrs.publish=false)))

It would be really helpful to have this filter as a configurable property. For example it will help to register services from a certain java package, don't register admin services which have a certain property enabled, etc

Currently all OSGi services are being tracked by the resource service tracker which creates a lot of dependencies in runtime (you can see it for example in felix web-console). Having the filter expression configurable will filter out services on framework level. This will also cover many of the uses cases where custom implementation of the ResourceFilter is necessary.

I would propose introducing a WebService interface with no methods and changing the objectClass. This would also better enable extensions such as providing a swagger model for the API.

hstaudacher commented 9 years ago

The requested feature is already possible. Just implement your own ResourceFilter and register it as a service before the connector starts.

Will close this issue now.
