[xwiki-devs] So what is an extension flavor exactly ?

Hi devs, There is many ways to make an extension a flavor and we need to chose one. Here are a few I have in mind: 1) Extension of type FLAVOR (compared to XAR and JAR types for example) 2) A Boolean indicating if an extension is a flavor 2) A tag "Flavor" (or some of the name to be decided later) 3) A unique category "Flavor" (or some of the name to be decided later) I don't like 1) because a flavor does have anything special and I don't see the point of reimplementing a new extension type handler just to make an extension a flavor. I'm really not a fan for 2) either since it would makes this part of the core of extension API which I really don't like since flavor are XWiki runtime specific while you can use the xwiki-commons part of Extension Manager for many use cases that don't have anything to do with XWiki right now. So I'm hesitating between 3) and 4). When I started thinking about it I was more into 3) since we already have tags in XWiki Repository but since I saw that in both Android and IOS each application is in a unique category I'm tempted to change my mind and give my +1 to 3). Plus exposing categories is a nice new feature anyway. -- Thomas Mortagne
