[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-2042) Improve query operation for nested child resources

[Lin Gao (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-2042?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13416641#comment-13416641 ] 

Lin Gao commented on WFCORE-2042:
---------------------------------

Thanks Michal for the comments, adding the +from+ parameter maybe an option, but it may confuse the user because we have the +select+ parameter which sounds similar.

I think it would be better to solve the problem that the filter cannot be applied to nested attributes instead of adding more parameters.

The dot notation may be used to split parent and sub resources, the wildcard notion may be used to apply for filtering on multiple resources(like Brian's comment above).

> It would be good if the 'query()' operation can filter the resources by specifying value of attributes which are +inside of  nested child resources(not only by the first level of child resource)+, so that, for example, the following command can work well as expected:
> {code:}
> [standalone at localhost:9990 /] /subsystem=security:query(select=[security-domain], where={security-domain.authentication.login-modules.code=RealmDirect})
> {
>     "outcome" => "success",
>     "result" => undefined
> }
> // here the expected output are the security-domain resources which have the loging-module RealmDirect defined.
> {code}
> The {{security-domain.authentication.login-modules.code}} in 'where' parameter is proposed attribute name in enhanced syntax, other options maybe possible.
> The different requirements between this WFCORE-2042 and WFCORE-2041 are:
> * WFCORE-2041 focus on complex attributes in one management resource
> * WFCORE-2042 focus on nested management resources with or without complex attributes
