Integrate jar-Library

If you don’t want to use the provided IS package but integrate the functionality with one of your existing packages you need to

• copy the required jar libraries into your package
• create the service you want to use and implement it based upon the service from the package farsightwm.switchpipe.

Extending switchpipe

Custom Sources and Stores

You can implement Sources and Stores by providing a java class that implements one of the interfaces:

• farsight.switchpipe.datastore.DataSource
• farsight.switchpipe.datastore.DataStore

To use a custom store configure a store (e.g. myStore) and set:

stores.myStore.class = <fully-qualified-name-of-your-class>

Custom Activation Policies

You can implement your own Activation Policy. Implement one of the interfaces:

• farsight.switchpipe.activation.ActivationPolicy
• farsight.switchpipe.activation.ConfigurablePolicy
• farsight.switchpipe.activation.PersistablePolicy

And configure:

activation.class = <fully-qualified-name-of-your-class>
