[keycloak-dev] ProviderFactory::postDeploy?

Hi, At the moment, the ProviderFactory::postInit() method is not called during hot (re)deployment of providers, only during server startup. This is considered a bug (see discussion in keycloak-user, KEYCLOAK- 5131 and PR #4282). Meanwhile, Marek and I have been discussing the problem of accessing data model from postInit (see the keycloak-user post). Turns out that the semantics should be significantly different depending on whether postInit() is called during server startup or hot deploy. In the first case, one should listen for PostMigrationEvent. In the second case, the event is not available and thus shouldn't be listened for. However, the provider should be able to somehow distinguish the cases. There are some hacks like analyzing current thread name, querying JNDI or Resteasy, but maybe we can come up with something more clean and simple? Marek has suggested that the new method should be introduced on the ProviderFactory interface, with empty default implementation (in order not to break the code). What do you think? Dmitry
