Carsten Ziegeler created SLING-2782:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Try to use sling:resourceType as a node type for node
creation
Key: SLING-2782
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2782
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: JCR
Affects Versions: JCR Resource 2.2.4
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
Fix For: JCR Resource 2.2.6
Right now, creating resources through the resource API
(ResourceResolver#create) still requires some knowledge about the underlying
storage especially in the case of JCR - in many cases you need to provide the
primary node type.
We could relax this and use the sling:resourceType as the node - but only if
jcr:primaryType is not specified and sling:resourceType contains a valid node
type name.
This is in line with the implementation of the resource type handling for jcr
resources: if the node does not have a sling:resourceType, the node type is
returned.
In addition, we defined that e.g. for files all resource providers should
return nt:file as the resource type and nt:folder for folders. So making this
work the other way round, fits into this.
