Contributors
Contributors are an important concept of the xdi2-messaging and xdi2-server components. They are used as an extensibility mechanism to provide additional data on top of a messaging target. For example, this can be used to fetch certain data from an external source rather than from a local store.
Unlike messaging targets and interceptors, whose functionality is typically the same or very similar across an entire local graph, contributors are more specialized and apply only to a certain part of the local graph, e.g. a single entity or attribute.
