Method Details

findResources

Iterator<Resource> findResources(ResourceResolver resolver,
 String query,
 String language)

Deprecated.

Searches for resources using the given query formulated in the given language.

The semantic meaning of the query and language depend on the actual implementation and storage used for the resources. For JCR repository being used as storage, the query and language parameters are used to create a JCR Query through the QueryManager. The result returned is then based on the NodeIterator provided by the query result.

Parameters:

resolver - The resource resolver

query - The query string to use to find the resources.

language - The language in which the query is formulated.

Returns:

An Iterator of Resource objects matching the query. If no resources match, null might be returned instead of an empty iterator.

Throws:

QuerySyntaxException - If the query is not syntactically correct according to the query language indicator or if the query language is not supported as specified in LANGUAGES.

SlingException - If an error occurs querying for the resources.

IllegalStateException - if this resource provider has already been closed.

queryResources

Iterator<ValueMap> queryResources(ResourceResolver resolver,
 String query,
 String language)

Deprecated.

Queries the storage using the given query formulated in the given language.

The semantic meaning of the query and language depend on the actual implementation and storage used for the resources. For JCR repository being used as storage, the query and language parameters are used to create a JCR Query through the QueryManager. The result returned is then based on the RowIterator provided by the query result. The map returned for each row is indexed by the column name and the column value is the JCR Value object converted into the respective Java object, such as Boolean for a value of property type Boolean.

Parameters:

resolver - The resource resolver

query - The query string to use to find the resources.

language - The language in which the query is formulated.

Returns:

An Iterator of Map instances providing access to the query result. If no resources match, null might be returned instead of an empty iterator.

Throws:

QuerySyntaxException - If the query is not syntactically correct according to the query language indicator or if the query language is not supported as specified in LANGUAGES.

SlingException - If an error occurs querying for the resources.

IllegalStateException - if this resource provider has already been closed.
