Hi all,
just wanted to feed the discussion about scripting-language-specific
support for easy and language-oriented access to the JCR API. I just
came across this code snippet [1] of Python accessing Googles BigTable/
GFS in Google's newest child App Engine [2]:
---------
logo = db.getKey(db.Key(logo_key))
logo.up_votes = logo.up_votes + 1
logo.put()
self.redirect('/')
--------
getKey, modification and put, as simple as that. I think that doing
that with the JCR API needs a bit more, does it? Otherwise this is
just a proof for the required simplicity in scripting languages on web
applications. From my experience, it matters for adoption if you only
have to write 2 lines of code instead of 5 for common stuff.
Just my 2 cents...
Alex
