4.4.1. Loading script and save it in JCR

There are two ways to save a script in JCR. The first way is to save it at server startup time by using configuration.xml and the second way is to upload the script via HTTP.

Load script at startup time

This way can be used for load prepared scripts, to use this way. we must configure org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.script.groovy.GroovyScript2RestLoaderPlugin. This is simple configuration example.


<external-component-plugins>

  <target-component>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.script.groovy.GroovyScript2RestLoader</target-component>

  <component-plugin>

    <name>test</name>

    <set-method>addPlugin</set-method>

    <type>org.exoplatform.services.jcr.ext.script.groovy.GroovyScript2RestLoaderPlugin</type>

    <init-params>

      <value-param>

        <name>repository</name>

        <value>repository</value>

      </value-param>

      <value-param>

        <name>workspace</name>

        <value>production</value>

      </value-param>

      <value-param>

        <name>node</name>

        <value>/script/groovy</value>

      </value-param>

      <properties-param>

        <name>JcrGroovyTest.groovy</name>

        <property name="autoload" value="true" />

        <property name="path" value="file:/home/andrew/JcrGroovyTest.groovy" />

      </properties-param>

    </init-params>

  </component-plugin>

</external-component-plugins>

The first is value-param sets JCR repository, the second is value-param sets workspace and the third one is sets JCR node where scripts from plugin will be stored. If specified node does not exist, then it will be created. List of scripts is set by properties-params. Name of each properties-param will be used as node name for stored script, property autoload says to deploy this script at startup time, property path sets the source of script to be loaded. In this example we try to load single script from local file /home/andrew/JcrGroovyTest.groovy.

Load script via HTTP

This is samples of HTTP requests. In this example, we will upload script from file with name test.groovy.

andrew@ossl:~> curl -u root:exo \
-X POST \
-H 'Content-type:script/groovy' \
--data-binary @test.groovy \
http://localhost:8080/rest/script/groovy/add/repository/production/script/groovy/test.groovy

This example imitate sending data with HTML form ('multipart/form-data'). Parameter autoload is optional. If parameter autoload=true then script will be instantiate and deploy script immediately.

andrew@ossl:~> curl -u root:exo \
-X POST \
-F "file=@test.groovy;name=test" \
-F "autoload=true" \
http://localhost:8080/rest/script/groovy/add/repository/production/script/groovy/test1.groovy
