Introduce extension points in the existing Java EE commands ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: FORGE-2752 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-2752 Project: Forge Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Java EE Affects Versions: 3.7.0.Final Reporter: George Gastaldi Fix For: 3.x Future JPA and REST commands are used in the Java EE addon but could perform differently when using another technology (like Spring Boot, for example). Example: JPA: In Spring Boot, there is no {{persistence.xml}}, but an {{application.properties}} file that contains the necessary information. REST: Even though JAX-RS is not used, the generated REST endpoints would need extra annotations to perform correctly. This is accomplished now Right now the JPASetupWizard for example delegates the action to a PersistenceOperations class directly. It would be nice if we could introduce some indirection (or even extract to a common addon) in the commands.execute() method. One idea is to have a Command -> Facet -> Operations sequence, so other technologies (like Spring Boot) could reuse the same command by only implementing a different facet.
