The Keycloak server is currently configured via a keycloak-server.json
file.  We are converting this to configuration through
standalone.xml/domain.xml.

To automatically upgrade, I need to read keycloak-server.json and write
back to standalone.xml.  I can easily add the operations to do this at
parse time.  The parser has this method:

@Override
public void readElement(final XMLExtendedStreamReader reader, final
List<ModelNode> list) throws XMLStreamException

Reading an external resource from the subsystem parsing doesn't feel right to me. Is the goal to move away from the keycloak-server.json to using the management model?

If that is the goal then a better solution might be to have some sort of migration operation that would read the file and create the subsystem model. Then after that the keycloak-server.json is ignored and the *.xml file will be used.
 

So one way to do this is to parse keycloak-server.json at this time and
add operations to the list.

That puts everything into the management model.  But nothing will be
written to standalone.xml unless someone manually does a write operation
from CLI.

A write will be triggered if you make a change to the management model.

I need to correct myself here. Persistence won't happen during a boot. So when I say the management model needs to change what I mean is after boot it needs to change for the write to persistent storage will be invoked.
 
 

So my question is, what is the best way to accomplish this?  Is there a
good, safe way to manually trigger a flush to standalone.xml at this
point or at some later point during startup?

Not really an answer, but I hope there is not a way to trigger a write :)
