ResourceResolverWrapper

public ResourceResolverWrapper(ResourceResolver resolver)

Creates a new wrapper instance, delegating all calls to the given resolver.

Parameters:

resolver - the wrapped resource resolver

Method Detail

resolve

@NotNull
public @NotNull Resource resolve(@NotNull
                                 @NotNull HttpServletRequest request,
                                 @NotNull
                                 @NotNull java.lang.String absPath)

Wraps and returns the Resource obtained by calling resolve on the wrapped resource resolver.

Specified by:

resolve in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

request - The http servlet request object providing more hints at how to resolve the absPath. This parameter may be null in which case the implementation should use reasonable defaults.

absPath - The absolute path to be resolved to a resource. If this parameter is null, it is assumed to address the root of the resource tree. If the path is relative it is assumed relative to the root, that is a slash is prepended to the path before resolving it.

Returns:

a wrapped resource obtained through the wrapped resource resolver

Mappings for Resource Resolution

resolve

@NotNull
public @NotNull Resource resolve(@NotNull
                                 @NotNull java.lang.String absPath)

Wraps and returns the Resource obtained by calling resolve on the wrapped resource resolver.

Specified by:

resolve in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

absPath - The absolute path to be resolved to a resource. If this parameter is null, it is assumed to address the root of the resource tree. If the path is relative it is assumed relative to the root, that is a slash is prepended to the path before resolving it.

Returns:

a wrapped resource obtained through the wrapped resource resolver

Mappings for Resource Resolution

resolve

@NotNull
public @NotNull Resource resolve(@NotNull
                                 @NotNull HttpServletRequest request)

Wraps and returns the Resource obtained by calling resolve on the wrapped resource resolver.

Specified by:

resolve in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

request - The http servlet request object used to resolve the resource for. This must not be null.

Returns:

a wrapped resource obtained through the wrapped resource resolver

See Also:

Mappings for Resource Resolution

map

@NotNull
public @NotNull java.lang.String map(@NotNull
                                     @NotNull java.lang.String resourcePath)

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns a (request) path mapped from the (resource) path applying the reverse mapping used by the ResourceResolver.resolve(String) such that when the path is given to the ResourceResolver.resolve(String) method the same resource is returned.

Note, that technically the resourcePath need not refer to an existing resource. This method just applies the mappings and returns the resulting string. If the resourcePath does not address an existing resource roundtripping may of course not work and calling ResourceResolver.resolve(String) with the path returned may return null.

This method is intended as the reverse operation of the ResourceResolver.resolve(String) method.

This method also does percent-encoding before returning the (request) path (with charset UTF-8). Due to this calling this method multiple times in a nested fashion might lead to an invalid (request) path which can subsequently not be resolved via ResourceResolver.resolve(String).

Specified by:

map in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

resourcePath - The path for which to return a mapped path.

Returns:

The mapped path or resourcePath in case no mapping is found.

ResourceMapper.getMapping(String, HttpServletRequest), Percent-Encoding, Mappings for Resource Resolution

map

public java.lang.String map(@NotNull
                            @NotNull HttpServletRequest request,
                            @NotNull
                            @NotNull java.lang.String resourcePath)

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns an URL mapped from the (resource) path applying the reverse mapping used by the ResourceResolver.resolve(HttpServletRequest, String) such that when the path is given to the ResourceResolver.resolve(HttpServletRequest, String) method the same resource is returned.

Note, that technically the resourcePath need not refer to an existing resource. This method just applies the mappings and returns the resulting string. If the resourcePath does not address an existing resource roundtripping may of course not work and calling ResourceResolver.resolve(HttpServletRequest, String) with the path returned may return null.

This method is intended as the reverse operation of the ResourceResolver.resolve(HttpServletRequest, String) method. As such the URL returned is expected to be an absolute URL including scheme, host, any servlet context path and the actual path used to resolve the resource.

This method also does percent-encoding before returning the URL (with charset UTF-8). Due to this calling this method multiple times in a nested fashion might lead to an invalid URL which can subsequently not be resolved via ResourceResolver.resolve(String).

Specified by:

map in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

request - The http servlet request object which may be used to apply more mapping functionality.

resourcePath - The path for which to return a mapped path.

Returns:

The mapped URL or resourcePath in case no mapping is found.

ResourceMapper.getMapping(String, HttpServletRequest), Percent-Encoding, Mappings for Resource Resolution

getResource

public Resource getResource(@NotNull
                            @NotNull java.lang.String path)

Wraps and returns the Resource obtained by calling getResource on the wrapped resource resolver.

Specified by:

getResource in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

path - The absolute path to the resource object to be loaded. The path may contain relative path specifiers like . (current location) and .. (parent location), which are resolved by this method. If the path is relative, that is the first character is not a slash, implementations are expected to apply a search path algorithm to resolve the relative path to a resource.

Returns:

a wrapped resource obtained through the wrapped resource resolver

getResource

public Resource getResource(Resource base,
                            @NotNull
                            @NotNull java.lang.String path)

Wraps and returns the Resource obtained by calling getResource on the wrapped resource resolver.

Specified by:

getResource in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

base - The base Resource against which a relative path argument given by path is resolved. This parameter may be null if the path is known to be absolute.

path - The path to the resource object to be loaded. If the path is relative, i.e. does not start with a slash (/), the resource relative to the given base resource is returned. The path may contain relative path specifiers like . (current location) and .. (parent location), which are resolved by this method.

Returns:

a wrapped resource obtained through the wrapped resource resolver

getSearchPath

@NotNull
public @NotNull java.lang.String[] getSearchPath()

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns the search path used by the ResourceResolver.getResource(String) method to search for resources by relative path. If no search path is set an empty array is returned.

The returned array of strings is a copy of the internal value, so modifications to this array have no influence on the operation of the ResourceResolver.

The search path of a resource resolver never changes during the lifetime of the resource resolver. Therefore clients may call this method once and use the stored value together with this resource resolver.

Each entry in the array is an absolute path terminated with a slash character. Thus to create an absolute path from a search path entry and a relative path, the search path entry and relative path may just be concatenated.

Specified by:

getSearchPath in interface ResourceResolver

Returns:

The array of search paths

listChildren

@NotNull
public @NotNull java.util.Iterator<Resource> listChildren(@NotNull
                                                          @NotNull Resource parent)

Wraps and returns the Iterator obtained by calling findResources on the wrapped resource resolver.

Specified by:

findResources in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

query - The query string to use to find the resources.

language - The language in which the query is formulated. The language should always be specified. However for compatibility with older version, if no language is specified, "xpath" is used.

Returns:

a wrapped iterator obtained through the wrapped resource resolver

queryResources

@NotNull
public @NotNull java.util.Iterator<java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object>> queryResources(@NotNull
                                                                                                          @NotNull java.lang.String query,
                                                                                                          java.lang.String language)

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Queries the storage using the given query formulated in the given language.

The semantic meaning of the query and language depend on the actual implementation and storage used for the resources. For JCR repository being used as storage, the query and language parameters are used to create a JCR Query through the QueryManager. The result returned is then based on the RowIterator provided by the query result. The map returned for each row is indexed by the column name and the column value is the JCR Value object converted into the respective Java object, such as Boolean for a value of property type Boolean.

Specified by:

queryResources in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

query - The query string to use to find the resources.

language - The language in which the query is formulated. The language should always be specified. However for compatibility with older version, if no language is specified, "xpath" is used.

Returns:

An Iterator of Map instances providing access to the query result.

public boolean hasChildren(@NotNull
                           @NotNull Resource resource)

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Checks if the specified resource has any direct child resources.

Specified by:

hasChildren in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

resource - the resource to check for direct children

Returns:

true if the resource has any child resources

Returns:

a wrapped resource resolver

Throws:

LoginException - If an error occurs creating the new ResourceResolver with the provided credential data.

isLive

public boolean isLive()

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns true if this resource resolver is still usable. This method tests different things like if it has not been closed yet or if any of the used resource providers is not usable anymore.

Unlike the other methods defined in this interface, this method will never throw an exception even after the resource resolver has been closed.

Specified by:

isLive in interface ResourceResolver

Returns:

true if the resource resolver is still usable. Once the resource resolver has been closed or a used resource provider has been unregistered, this method returns false.

close

public void close()

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Close this resource resolver. This method should be called by clients when the resource resolver is not used anymore. Once this method has been called, the resource resolver is considered unusable and will throw exceptions if still used - with the exception of this method, which can be called several times with no ill effects. A resolver may also be closed implicitly in case when the ResourceResolverFactory which was used to create this resolver is no longer active or any of the used resource providers is no longer active. All objects in the map maintained by ResourceResolver.getPropertyMap() implementing the Closeable interface, will be closed by calling Closeable#close() on each of them. Any exception thrown by this call will be ignored. The order in which the objects are closed is not defined.

Specified by:

close in interface java.lang.AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in interface java.io.Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface ResourceResolver

hasChanges in interface ResourceResolver

Returns:

true if there are pending changes.

getParentResourceType

public java.lang.String getParentResourceType(Resource resource)

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns the super type of the given resource. This method checks first if the resource itself knows its super type by calling Resource.getResourceSuperType(). If that returns null ResourceResolver.getParentResourceType(String) is invoked with the resource type of the resource.

Specified by:

getParentResourceType in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

resource - The resource to return the resource super type for.

Returns:

The resource super type or null. This method also returns null if the provided resource is null

getParentResourceType

public java.lang.String getParentResourceType(java.lang.String resourceType)

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns the super type of the given resource type. This method converts the resource type to a resource path and checks the corresponding resource (considering the search path). If the resource exists, the Resource.getResourceSuperType() method is called.

Specified by:

getParentResourceType in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

resourceType - The resource type whose super type is to be returned.

Returns:

the super type of the resourceType or null if the resource given by the resource type does not exist or if it returns null for its super type. It also returns null if resourceType is null.

isResourceType

public boolean isResourceType(Resource resource,
                              java.lang.String resourceType)

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns true if the resource type or any of the resource's super type(s) equals the given resource type. In case the type of the given resource or the given resource type starts with one of the resource resolver's search paths it is converted to a relative resource type by stripping off the resource resolver's search path before doing the comparison.

Specified by:

isResourceType in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

resource - The resource to check

resourceType - The resource type to check this resource against.

Returns:

true if the resource type or any of the resource's super type(s) equals the given resource type. false is also returned if resource or resourceType are null.

Specified by:

copy in interface ResourceResolver

Parameters:

srcAbsPath - the path of the resource to be copied.

destAbsPath - the location to which the resource at srcAbsPath is to be copied.

Returns:

a wrapped resource obtained through the wrapped resource resolver

PersistenceException - If an error occurs.

getPropertyMap

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> getPropertyMap()

Description copied from interface: ResourceResolver

Returns a map to store temporary objects. This map is suited to store objects which share the same lifecycle as the resource resolver. The resource resolver itself does not use this map. The resource resolver will clear the map during ResourceResolver.close(), so afterwards the map is empty. If a stored value implements the Closeable interface, the ResourceResolver will invoke the close() of the value before clearing the map.

Specified by:

getPropertyMap in interface ResourceResolver

Returns:

the property map
