Ah no. Go get the build target from xml-forrest project. They just use the <java> task to call the CLI, which works. My task just allows you to specify your config in the build file, rather than a separate cli.xconf.Upayavira, Thanks for all of your help. Let me know if you get your CLI Ant task running. I'd be curious to see how you got it to work. In the meantime, I'm going to require tomcat to be running to build the TOC. Here's the simple Ant target that I wrote:
<target
name="buildTOC"
depends="deployXML"
description="Builds the table of contents">
<get src="${toc.uri}" dest="${toc.path}"/>
</target>

It's kind of kludgy and pretty slow, but it does the job.

No that is not unreasonable.My goal, however, is to ultimately put this into an Ant task so that a developer would not need to have tomcat up and running to build the toc. Maybe this is unreasonable.
I have written an Ant task specifically for that. Unfortunately, it works for me, but not for the one person who has tested it so far.

Justin,
You could try Lars' mail, or you could take a completely different tack:
Use the SourceWritingTransformer in a secret pipeline that generates your data, and then writes it to a file using the SourceWritingTransformer.

Argh. After struggling with cocoon.sh and Upayavira's helpful email, I still can't get the CLI to work. I just need to push the result of http://localhost:8080/toc into the the file /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27/webapps/cocoon/cde/xml/toc.xml. I've attached the relevant configuration below. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Justin,
Shouldn't be a problem.I've read the documentation and the Wiki as well the most recent CLI threads in July and earlier this month. However, I can't seem to figure out how to configure the cli.xconf for my webapp.
The site I'm building is dynamic, using Cocoon 2.1.1 to transform aggregated XML docs at run-time. Part of this aggregation is a static table of contents (TOC) document that is generated at design-time with a transform on Cocoon's directory generator output.
<map:match pattern="toc"> <map:generate src="xml/site" type="directory"> <map:parameter name="depth" value="10"/> </map:generate> <map:transform src="xsl/gentoc.xsl"/> <map:serialize type="xml"/> </map:match>
I request http://server:8080/toc to generate the XML in my browser. By hand, I paste the resulting XML into a file called toc.xml. This is a mind numbingly arduous process that I hoped to automate in the deployment process with Ant. However, the first step is generating toc.xml with Cocoon's command line interface. Because I need to use the directory generator, I don't see a way around this.
To install Cocoon 2.1.1, I built a minimalist WAR that I deployed in Tomcat. This, of course, doesn�t include all of the goodies in the build directory of the installation directory. Where do I put my custom cli.xconf file?
Anywhere. But it must be referred to via an absolute path, or relative to the cocoon.sh file.
In my cocoon-2.1.2/build directory or in my tomcat/webapps/cocoon directory? Also, given my path confusion, I'm not sure how to set the <context-dir>,
The root of your webapp - the folder containing your sitemap.xmap and your WEB-INF folder.
<config-file>,
Path, from your config directory (or absolute) to your cocoon.xconf (optional)
<work-dir>,A working directory, can be anywhere.
and <dest-dir> elements.
The folder where you want your files written (if not specified in a <uri> node @dest attribute. Therefore not relevent in your case.
Yup. That looks fine.Finally, is this the correct <uri> for generating the URL http://server:8080/toc into the file site/xml/toc.xml within tomcat/webapps/cocoon?
<uri type="replace" src-prefix="" src="toc" dest="site/xml/toc.xml"/>
Your config file path is missing 'cde' I think.Here are the interesting parts of my cli.xconf (currently located in tomcat/webapps/cocoon/):
<context-dir> /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27/webapps/cocoon/cde </context-dir> <config-file> /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27/webapps/cocoon/WEB-INF/cocoon.xconf </config-file> <work-dir>build/work</work-dir> <dest-dir> /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27/webapps/cocoon/cde/xml </dest-dir>
...
<uri type="replace" src-prefix="" src="toc" dest="site/xml/toc.xml"/>
Run from the commandline using
./cocoon.sh cli -x /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27/webapps/cocoon/cli.xconf
The cocoon.sh script is configured to work off a built Cocoon with the webapp in build/webapp. You can try setting COCOON_HOME environment variable to the path to your webapp (same as context-dir) before running it.
I'm getting the errorYou can ignore that one. Now fixed in latest Cocoon in CVS.
Cannot find CatalogManager.properties
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException ... Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/servlet/http/HttpServletRequest
You need to have servlet2_X.jar in your classpath, which is defined in cocoon.sh.
I'm very confused. Any help would be much appreciated.Does that help?
