Summary: Support manual management of transactions at the edge through a config prop Key: CAUSEWAY-3704 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAUSEWAY-3704 Project: Causeway Issue Type: New Feature Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.0.0 Reporter: Daniel Keir Haywood Fix For: 2.1.0 Some folk might want to use the framework without the built-in persistence mechanisms, and roll their own, eg using JOOQ or (even) event sourcing. Or they might use JPA but prefer to minimize the length of transactions and set jpa open-in-view to false . useful reference on this: [https://www.baeldung.com/spring-open-session-in-view.] To support this, suggest we introduce a flag which if set means that the framework no longer auto-manages the transaction at the edge. Perhaps a metamodel validation should then also enforce that there are no `@DomainObject(nature=ENTITY)` to be found in the domain model. Perhaps the property is called causeway.core.view-models-only? Or alternatively causeway.core.explicit-transaction-management? -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
