You
can create resources in a given location in the repository. The
natural file size is subject to database limitations and session
time-out. For the default configuration, files are limited to 25
MB. To raise or lower the maximum file size, you must change the
database configuration.
Writing resources is equivalent to storing data in the repository.
Once you write a resource to the repository, it becomes accessible
to all clients in the repository ecosystem. When you write resources,
such as XML schemas, XDP files, and XSD files, to the repository,
the contents are parsed based on the MIME type. If the MIME type
is supported, the parser determines whether there is an implied relationship
to other content. For example, if a cascading style sheet (CSS)
has a relative URL that references a common CSS, it is expected
that you will submit the common CSS into the repository as well.
The relationship between the two resources is stored as a pending
relationship for a non-adjustable period of 30 days. When you submit
the common CSS to the repository within the 30-day period, the relationship
is formed.
When you create a resource, the access control list (ACL) is
inherited from the parent folder. The root folder has system-level
permissions until an initial resource or folder is created, at which
point the resource or folder is given default ACL permissions.
You can programmatically
write resources by using the Repository service Java API or web
service API.
Summary of stepsTo write a resource, follow these steps:
Include project files.
Create a Repository service client.
Specify
the URI of the resource to be read.
Read the resource.
Include project filesInclude the necessary files in your development
project. If you are creating a client application using Java, include
the necessary JAR files. If you are using web services, include
the proxy files.
Create the service clientBefore you can programmatically read
a resource, you must establish a connection and provide credentials.
This is accomplished by creating a service client.
Specify the URI of the target folder for the resourceCreate a
string containing the URI of the resource to be read. The syntax
includes forward slashes, as in this example: "/path/folder".
Create the resourceInvoke the Repository service method to create
the resource, and populate the resource with identifying information,
including its UUID, resource name, and description.
Specify the resource contentInvoke the Repository service method
to create resource content, and store that content in the resource.
Write the resource to the target folderInvoke the Repository
service method to write the resource, specifying the target folder’s
URI.
Write resources using the Java APIWrite a resource by using the Repository service API (Java):
Include project files
Include client JAR files
in your Java project’s class path.
Create the service client
Create a ResourceRepositoryClient object
by using its constructor and passing a ServiceClientFactory object
that contains connection properties.
Specify the URI of the target folder for the resource
Specify
the URI of the target folder for the resource. In this case, because
the resource named testResource will be stored
in the folder named testFolder, the folder’s URI
is "/testFolder". The URI is stored as a java.lang.String object.
Create the resource
To create a resource, you must
first create a com.adobe.repository.infomodel.bean.RepositoryInfomodelFactoryBean object.
Invoke
the RepositoryInfomodelFactoryBean object’s newResource method,
which creates a com.adobe.repository.infomodel.bean.Resource object.
In this example, the following parameters are provided:
A com.adobe.repository.infomodel.Id object,
which is created by invoking the default constructor for the Id class.
A com.adobe.repository.infomodel.Lid object,
which is created by invoking the default constructor for the Lid class.
A java.lang.String containing the file name
of the resource.
To specify the resource’s description,
invoke the Resource object’s setDescription method
and pass a string containing the description. In this example, the
description is "test resource".
Specify
the resource content
To create content for the resource,
invoke the RepositoryInfomodelFactoryBean object’s newResourceContent method,
which returns a com.adobe.repository.infomodel.bean.ResourceContent object.
Add content to the ResourceContent object. In this
example, this is accomplished by doing the following tasks:
Invoking the ResourceContent object’s setDataDocument method and
passing in a com.adobe.idp.Document object
Invoking the ResourceContent object’s setSize method
and passing in the size in bytes of the Document object
Add
the content to the resource by invoking the Resource object’s setContent method
and passing in the ResourceContent object. For more
information, see LiveCycle API Reference.
Write
the resource to the target folder
Invoke the ResourceRepositoryClient object’s writeResource method
and pass in the URI of the folder, as well as the Resource object.
Write resources using the web service APIWrite a resource by using the Repository service API (web
service):
Include project files
Create the service client
Using the Microsoft .NET
client assembly, create a RepositoryServiceService object
by invoking its default constructor. Set its Credentials property
using a System.Net.NetworkCredential object containing
the user name and password.
Specify the URI of the target folder for the resource
Specify
the URI of the target folder for the resource. In this case, because
the resource named testResource will be stored
in the folder named testFolder, the folder’s URI
is "/testFolder". When using a language compliant
with the Microsoft .NET Framework (for example, C#), store the URI in
a System.String object.
Create the resource
To create a resource, invoke the
default constructor for the Resource class. In
this example, the following information is stored in the Resource object:
A com.adobe.repository.infomodel.Id object,
which is created by invoking the default constructor for the Id class
and assigned to the Resource object’s id field.
A com.adobe.repository.infomodel.Lid object,
which is created by invoking the default constructor for the Lid class
and assigned to the Resource object’s lid field.
A string containing the file name of the resource, which
is assigned to the Resource object’s name field.
The name used in this example is "testResource".
A string containing the description of the resource, which
is assigned to the Resource object’s description field.
The description used in this example is "test resource".
Specify
the resource content
To create content for the resource,
invoke the default constructor for the ResourceContent class.
Then add content to the ResourceContent object.
In this example, this is accomplished by doing the following tasks:
Add
the content to the resource by assigning the ResourceContent object to
the Resource object’s content field.
Write
the resource to the target folder
Invoke the RepositoryServiceService object’s writeResource method
and pass in the URI of the folder, as well as the Resource object.
Pass null for the other two parameters.
