Web UI mainly uses declarative way of defining UI structure. When a new object type is created it is often required to create a new builder which would build the objects from spec file. The builders' logic is mostly the same. This patch adds a general builder with some extendability capabilities. Now it is possible to: 1) define spec for single object and build it by calling IPA.build(spec, /* optional */ builder_fac) 2) define an array of specs and build the objects by the same call Prerequisite for following action list patches. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2707
Ground rules on adding new schema Brand new schema, particularly when written specifically for IPA, should be added in share/*.ldif. Any new files need to be explicitly loaded in ipaserver/install/dsinstance.py. These simply get copied directly into the new instance schema directory. Existing schema (e.g. in an LDAP draft) may either be added as a separate ldif in share or as an update in the updates directory. The advantage of adding the schema as an update is if 389-ds ever adds the schema then the installation won't fail due to existing schema failing to load during bootstrap. If the new schema requires a new container then this should be added to install/bootstrap-template.ldif.
