What we have now IIUC is
- documents (class Document), which can contain one piece of XML content of a certain type (the "resource type")
- resource types (class DocumentType), which gives information about a resource type (name, schema location, ...) and a factory for creating documents of this type
- assets (class Resource), which belong to a Document
now that we store metadata seperately, we can store the resource type in the private lenya metadata, and treat them the same. the idea was also to have assets independant of documents (global assets)
I was thinking a while back about how the Lenya object model might be changed to better support key features such as content aggregation and global assets. Initial thoughts are summarized in http://wiki.apache.org/lenya/ContentModelProposal and although it is far from complete it may provide a basis for discussion.
Any input is appreciated, either here in the mailing list or as comments in the Wiki-page.
will take a look
Bottom-line for short-term name changes would be
- change Resource to ContentItem
- change DocumentType to ResourceType
Any actual structural changes obviously require more analysis and discussion.
not sure we should do this at this point
