WebDAV(4)Jackrabbit and Use SimpleWebdavServlet

WebDAV(4)Jackrabbit and Use SimpleWebdavServlet

1. Use SimpleWebDAVServlet
Change the web.xml to follow:

<!-- ====================================================================== -->
    <!-- W E B D A V  S E R V L E T                                              -->
    <!-- ====================================================================== -->
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>Webdav</servlet-name>
        <description>
            The webdav servlet that connects HTTP request to the repository.
        </description>
        <servlet-class>org.apache.jackrabbit.j2ee.CustomerSimpleWebdavServlet</servlet-class>

        <init-param>
            <param-name>resource-path-prefix</param-name>
            <param-value>/repository</param-value>
            <description>
                defines the prefix for spooling resources out of the repository.
            </description>
        </init-param>
         <init-param>
             <param-name>missing-auth-mapping</param-name>
             <param-value>admin:admin</param-value>
             <description>
                 Defines how a missing authorization header should be handled.
                 1) If this init-param is missing, a 401 response is generated.
                    This is suitable for clients (eg. webdav clients) for which
                    sending a proper authorization header is not possible if the
                    server never sent a 401.
                 2) If this init-param is present with an empty value,
                    null-credentials are returned, thus forcing an null login
                    on the repository.
                 3) If this init-param is present with the value 'guestcredentials'
                    java.jcr.GuestCredentials are used to login to the repository.
                 4) If this init-param has a 'user:password' value, the respective
                    simple credentials are generated.
             </description>
         </init-param>
        <!--
            Optional parameter to define the value of the 'WWW-Authenticate' header
        -->
        <!--
        <init-param>
            <param-name>authenticate-header</param-name>
            <param-value>Basic realm="Jackrabbit Webdav Server"</param-value>
            <description>
                Defines the value of the 'WWW-Authenticate' header.
            </description>
        </init-param>

        <!--
            Parameter used to configure behaviour of webdav resources such as:
            - distinction between collections and non-collections
            - resource filtering
        -->
        <init-param>
            <param-name>resource-config</param-name>
            <param-value>/WEB-INF/config.xml</param-value>
            <description>
                Defines various dav-resource configuration parameters.
            </description>
        </init-param>
       <!--
            Optional parameter to define the behaviour of the referrer-based CSRF protection
        -->
        <!--
        <init-param>
            <param-name>csrf-protection</param-name>
            <param-value>host1.domain.com,host2.domain.org</param-value>
            <description>
                Defines the behaviour of the referrer based CSRF protection
                1) If omitted or left empty the (default) behaviour is to allow only requests with
                   an empty referrer header or a referrer host equal to the server host
                2) May also contain a comma separated list of additional allowed referrer hosts
                3) If set to 'disabled' no referrer checking will be performed at all
            </description>

        <url-pattern>/repository/*</url-pattern>

Visit the URL as follow:
http://localhost:8080/easywebdavserver/repository/default

error message:
DavResourceImpl.java:537 Error while importing resource: java.io.IOException: Access denied.

solution:
make sure we visit the WEBDAV server with username and password admin/admin.

2. Configuration in repository.xml
Configuration variables
${rep.home} : Repository home directory
${wsp.name}: Workspace name, only avaible in workspace configuration
${wsp.home}

Persistence configuration
File are dealed as binary file
FileInputStream xml_file = new FileInputStream("src/main/resources/test.xml");
            Binary banary = session.getValueFactory().createBinary(xml_file);
            xml.setProperty("src_main_resources_test_xml", banary);
           
            session.save();

            // Retrieve content
            Node node = root.getNode("file/xml");
            System.out.println(node.getPath());
            System.out.println(node.getProperty("src_main_resources_test_xml").getBinary().toString());
