Thomas Mueller commented on JCR-3534:
-------------------------------------
To avoid further delay, we could already start implement what we seem to agree
on (well, lets see :-). That is, we need a secret, that is used as the key to
sign the message and verify the signature. One solution is a shared secret,
configured in the repository.xml, in a new tag. Or it could be configured
within the data store, but then each data store where we want to support this
feature would need to be changed. Are the any other (simpler) solutions? The
simplest to implement would probably be a system property, but that feels wrong
:-)
> Add JackrabbitSession.getValueByContentId method

> Key: JCR-3534
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3534
> Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: jackrabbit-api, jackrabbit-core
> Affects Versions: 2.6
> Reporter: Felix Meschberger
> Attachments: JCR-3534.patch

>
> we have a couple of use cases, where we would like to leverage the global
> data store to prevent sending around and copying around large binary data
> unnecessarily: We have two separate Jackrabbit instances configured to use
> the same DataStore (for the sake of this discussion assume we have the
> problems of concurrent access and garbage collection under control). When
> sending content from one instance to the other instance we don't want to send
> potentially large binary data (e.g. video files) if not needed.
> The idea is for the sender to just send the content identity from
> JackrabbitValue.getContentIdentity(). The receiver would then check whether
> the such content already exists and would reuse if so:
> String ci = contentIdentity_from_sender;
> try {
> Value v = session.getValueByContentIdentity(ci);
> Property p = targetNode.setProperty(propName, v);
> } catch (ItemNotFoundException ie) {
> // unknown or invalid content Identity
> } catch (RepositoryException re) {
> // some other exception
> }
> Thus the proposed JackrabbitSession.getValueByContentIdentity(String) method
> would allow for round tripping the JackrabbitValue.getContentIdentity()
> preventing superfluous binary data copying and moving.
