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.

    Fields
    Modifier and Type
    Field
    Description

    static final 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.
