[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-12076) Ability to define the Cache template in yaml in the operator

[Vittorio Rigamonti (Jira)]

    [ https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ISPN-12076?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14197689#comment-14197689 ] 

Vittorio Rigamonti commented on ISPN-12076:
-------------------------------------------

I agree that xml in yaml is not cool, on the other side it provides a complete solution for the user:
 * xml is well document in Infinispan docs
 * no additional constraints are added
 * no lines for xml->yaml mapping needed

I would add a yaml-only syntax for very common cases, but leave xml template for user that needs specific configuration.

> In infinispan operator 2.0, there is a way to define caches with kubernetes CR. However, defining the template for that cache should be done in xml: [https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan-operator/blob/master/documentation/asciidoc/topics/proc_creating_caches_xml.adoc]
> However, it is not ideal to use xml in yaml files. For example, instead of:
>  
> {{name: mycache}}
> {{template: {color:#ff8b00}<infinispan><cache-container><distributed-cache><mode>SYNC</mode><owners>1</owners></distributed-cache></cache-container></infinispan>{color}}}
>  
> It will be better something like:
>  
> {{name: mycache}}
>  {{template:}}
>  {{{color:#00875a}  distributed-cache:{color}}}
>  {color:#00875a}{{    mode: SYNC}}
>  {{    owners: 1}}{color}
