I'm not sure on this, we need to decide.
Not sure how it will work, what would be $services.<modulename> ?
For ex for the office importer asiri has a OfficeImporterVelocityBridge (which is the object that $services.offcieimproter would return)
I think Velocity stop at the dot and will not try to call $services.get("rendering.syntaxFactory") but $services.get("rendering").get("syntaxFactory") but I'm not 100% sure about that.
I'm pretty sure it's fine: $services.moduleName.whatever() is equivalent to $services.get("moduleName").whatever()
I know and that's exactly what is said but that's not what I'm talking about here, in your proposal you have $services.module.submodule.whatever() ($services.rendering.syntaxFactory.whatever()) and not $services.moduleName.whatever() so I'm asking what java object will represent will be $services.module ? since $services.module.submodule will be the registered service component.
$services.module.submodule.whatever() is equivalent to $service.get("module").get("submodule").whatever().
Sure but again that's not what i'm asking: in your proposal what is $service.get("module")
ScriptServiceManager has a get method that does a CM lookup on ScriptService with "module" as the hint.
So $service.get("module") will give you an object implementing ScriptService and that can implement any business methods too.
Ok what you said in Note 2 was confusing, i did not understood that "modulename" was in fact "servicename". So what you say basically is that each top level module has only one service ?
and what is $service.get("module").get("submodule") ? Is the module will register a unique ScriptService which internally has sub services or is there a ModleScriptService and ScriptService to differentiate module and service ? Or is ServiceManager emulate a module object in $service.get("module") by putting in it all the ScriptService with hint starting with "module." ? Theses solution are very differents things from module developer POV, that's why i'm asking.
So $service.get("module").get("submodule") would mean calling a get method on the Script Service object.
I've just committed a first version. Let's continue our discussion based on what I've committed.

IMO we should leave them in the velo context directly since they're not Script Services (they're only specific to velocity).
+1, it's very specific to velocity it should keep velocity tool style (i.e. as direct binding)

To do this in ScriptServiceManager.get() we use a Dynamic Proxy to implement MyModuleBusinessInterface (we probably need a ScriptService.getInterface() method to make it unambiguous).
