Carsten Ziegeler resolved SLING-2599.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
> Implement functionality to easily access a user's home folder
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-2599
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2599
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: JCR
> Reporter: Felix Meschberger
> Priority: Major
>
> Users will generally be managed in the JCR Repository. When using the
> Jackrabbit Repository the user's storage node can be accessed by the
> ItemBasedPrincipal backing the User.
> Since the implementation of the user's location is configuration or even
> implementation dependent there is no easy way to create a correct URL to the
> user's home location.
> To fix this, we should implementat functionality to give easy access to the
> user's home location at a canonical URL (and thus Resource) such as /~userid
> or /users/userid.
> The simplest implementation probably is using a ResourceProvider properly
> configured which does:
> * the user ID is part of the path given to the ResourceProvider.getResource
> method
> * adapt ResourceResolver to the Session of the authenticated user
> * --> no resource if no Session
> * Get the User from the UserManager
> * Get the Principal from the User
> * --> no resource If the Principal is not an ItemBasedPrincipal
> * get the path from the ItemBasedPrincipal
> * retrieve the item through the user's own session (to apply access control)
> * use the AdapterManager to adapt the Item to a Resource
> * --> return the Resource
