  • Big refactoring rounds for the OP-fed plugin

    • Improved packaging and module division

    • Iteration of all the lookup strategies wired to the metadata caches

      • Still lacking unit testing, but flow tests cover most cases already

    • All metadata caches can now cache both valid and invalid responses

      • Configurable cache record lifetimes for both categories, per cache

    • All entity / response statements are now parsed to our own wrappers

      • Interfaces in API, (Jackson) implementations in IMPL

      • No new dependencies in comparison to vanilla OP

    • Currently on DEV-branch: merge to main after Christmas break
