I am new to Jackrabbit and I am actually using it via Sling. I would like to add properties to a nt:file node. I have read that I need to add a mixin to it to allow it to accept properties. Could someone tell me how I go about
doing this? It would be great if there was a default mixin like
"mix:versionable" that I could just add. Maybe something like
"mix:allowproperties" should become a part of Jackrabbit?

For my purposes everything I put into jackrabbit will be a file. And these
files will always need properties. But the first property that I am
desperately trying to attach to a nt:file is slings "sling:resourceType" so that I can write a html.esp page to display the file in a html page the way
I want to.


best to ask Sling dev (cc'd)

Have you tried the quick start [1], in particular  ?

Create the header node:

curl -F"sling:resourceType=foo/header" -F"headline=Hello, Sling world" 
http://admin:ad...@localhost:8888/content/header
---------
Then see [2], it might help
