Hi Cocoon devs,
in order to support properties for JCR sources, the JCRNodeSource could
implement the InspectableSource from the repository block.
IIUC this requires a mapping between namespace+name to JCR property names.
Could this be implemented in the following way?
public SourceProperty getSourceProperty(String namespace, String name)
throws SourceException {
try {
String prefix = getSession().getNamespacePrefix(namespace);
String prefixedName = prefix + ":" + name;
Node node = getNode();
String value = node.getProperty(prefixedName).getString();
return new SourceProperty(namespace, name, value);
} catch (RepositoryException e) {
throw new SourceException("Resolving properties failed: ", e);
}
}
Some open questions:
- (How) would non-string properties be supported?
- How could one register namespaces at the JCR repository? Could that be
a configuration option of the AbstractRepository? Or would it require to
override the JackrabbitRepository to register namespaces at startup?
