[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-1328) API request: Programatically modify the VDB

[Steven Hawkins (Commented) (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-1328?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12643748#comment-12643748 ] 

Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-1328:
---------------------------------------

The remaining issue here is whether/how to support adding/removing source metadata.  The JCA datasource is easily added via admin api, but currently the closest we come for metadata is redeploying an updated dynamic vdb.  Mark to clarify are you requesting:
- to add/remove source models to a live, possibly non-dyamic, vdb
- and expect the effects of the add/remove to be persistent

This is a thornier issue also if view layers are involved as we have to do more work to ensure view integrity.

> I'd like an API to programatically modify the VDB.  It would be ideal to modify the VDB using DDL through Teiid.  Our primary use case is accessing a dynamic set of datasources through Teiid.  When a datasource is added, we would INSERT the appropriate entries into MODEL, PROPERTIES, DATASOURCES tables.  Teiid would reread the appropriate metadata from the associated translators.
