Key-Value Pair Property Bag Extensiblity Mechanism
Introduction
- Simiar to the GLUE2 extensibility mechanim, the core GOCDB entities (NGIs, Sites, Services, ServiceGroups, Endpoints) will be extended so that they can define an optional set of custom key-value pairs.
- In doing this, additional parameters could be supplied to the PI for selecting entities that define a particular set of properties. For example "select all Sites/Services that define the 'MPI=true' property."
PI Examples
The URL query could be parameterised with a known GET request paramter (e.g. 'properties') with a simplified LDAP style query string for a value, eg:
This query would return all <SERVICE_ENDPOINT> elements that support the 'MPI' property with a value of 'True'.
This query would return all <SERVICE_ENDPOINT> elements that support the 'MPI' property with any value.
This query would return all <SERVICE_ENDPOINT> elements that both support the 'MPI' property with any value and the 'somekey' property with a value of true.
The extent to which the logical ldap query syntax would be supported will have to be explored. A simplified version may cover most of the use cases.
