Interface RepositoryMount

All Superinterfaces:

org.apache.jackrabbit.api.JackrabbitRepository, javax.jcr.Repository

public interface RepositoryMount
extends org.apache.jackrabbit.api.JackrabbitRepository

A RepositoryMount works similar to a resource provider and allows to connect custom data. But it works on the lower JCR API level. This way legacy code using JCR API can be supported as well. However, implementors of this interface need to implement the full JCR API - which is more complex than the resource provider. Therefore a repository mount should only be used for special cases where legacy code using JCR API is used.

The JCR base implementation supports only a single RepositoryMount. In case of several registrations, the one with the highest service ranking will be used.

The RepositoryMount must implement JackrabbitRepository.login(javax.jcr.Credentials, String, java.util.Map) in order to login against the custom data provider. It will get access to the JCR session through PARENT_SESSION_KEY.

Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
static java.lang.String	MOUNT_POINTS_KEY The repository needs to register itself with this property which is a String+ property defining the paths in the JCR tree where the handling of the nodes is delegated to the mounter.
static java.lang.String	PARENT_SESSION_KEY The key of the attribute holding the parent session when JackrabbitRepository.login(javax.jcr.Credentials, String, java.util.Map) is called.

MOUNT_POINTS_KEY

static final java.lang.String MOUNT_POINTS_KEY

The repository needs to register itself with this property which is a String+ property defining the paths in the JCR tree where the handling of the nodes is delegated to the mounter. The mounter can mount itself at various points in the JCR repository.
