Re: [keycloak-dev] Need to remove built-in themes from standalone/configuration/themes
Putting the themes into a module jar raises two usability issues:
1) They have to be extracted and the re-jarred
2) Modules live many, many level deep in the directory structure and are
therefore hard to find.
I'm not familiar with the limitations of the patching tool, but is seems
that we could do this:
* Don't put themes in a jar. Plain files can also live inside a module.
* Create a second module directory structure. JBoss Modules lets you
have multiple paths for modules. So we just have a <KEYCLOAK
HOMe>/themes path that is a known module path.
The question is, will the patching tool be able to deal with that? If
not, we need to fix the patching tool.

This is due to patching. The patching tools only supports patching
modules, not files. If we need to patch the theme templates (quite
likely we will) we can then only patch the jar. As the extracted
themes override the jar it won't work unless we remove them.
The main problem with removing the extracted files is that they are
useful for someone that needs to modify the templates. I think the
best would just be to give people instructions on how to extract these
from the jar. It's just a zip after all.
Thoughts??
