Yes I agree it should be the same name but I don't like Persistable
actually (for me Persistable is a quality and doesn't represent an
entity).
I'd prefer Resource over Persistable if I had to choose I think but
there might be better names too.
Thanks

Another idea: PersistableReference since all theses are implementing
Persistable interface in your current model proposal, seems logical to
me or it mean Persistable is not the right name for this interface. Hi devs,
We need to decide if we want to keep the current:
ResourceName, DocumentName, SpaceName, WikiName, AttachmentName
or instead use a variation.
There are 2 things to decide:
- The prefix for the base object (Resource, Item, Model, etc)
- The suffix (Name, Path, Reference, etc)
Proposal
=======
I'd like to propose ModelReference for the base object and then
DocumentReference, SpaceReference, WikiReference,
AttachmentReference.
I'm not sure about ModelReference. We also need to think about the
Type, which would be ModelType.
Model isn't such a good name, since a Model doesn't represent an
"object".
So either we keep Resource which isn't too bad (even though I was
feeling it's a bit too generic since we could the notion of Resource
in the REST API too and in other APIs) or find another better name (I
couldn't find one). Item or Node would be the JCR way of naming it.
Thanks

http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs Note: This is different from Identity which is
unique (a UUID).
References do not point to unique objects.
Reference makes sense to me since it means what it means... :)
For example the API: Document getDocument(DocumentReference) is
pretty clear IMO.
Path is too physical to me. In JCR it's called getPath() but it
returns a string with a path, for ex "/wiki/space1/space2/document".
This is not our case. IMO our Reference would transform into a path
when serialized only.
Name isn't too bad, it would be my second choice. But it doesn't
show the fact that it's a ... reference... ;)
WDYT?
Thanks
