[Yanel-dev] Displaying website at a specific point in time

[Michael Wechner]

Hi

I have recently refactored the Yarep method getRevision(Date) in order 
to retrieve a revision of a node for a specific date, so called point in 
time.

It would be nice to be able to do/use this also on the resource layer. 
At the moment we have the following methods/interfaces

http://www.yanel.org/javadoc/org/wyona/yanel/core/api/attributes/VersionableV2.html#getView(viewId, 
revisionName)
http://www.yanel.org/javadoc/org/wyona/yanel/core/api/attributes/VersionableV2.html#getRevisions()

whereas getRevisions() could be re-used in order to find the revision 
for a specific date by stepping through each revision
and comparing/checking the creation date and hence get revision and 
inside the resource call node.getRevision(date).

Would it make sense to introduce a new method

http://www.yanel.org/javadoc/org/wyona/yanel/core/api/attributes/VersionableV2.html#getView(viewId, 
date)

?

WDYT?

Thanks

Michi
