Eric Norman commented on SLING-12300:
-------------------------------------
[~radu] the size of the number is irrelevant. I could get a match on the
first try if I get lucky. Basically, I'm not putting a server on the public
internet with predictable addresses. The resource path is the only address I
need.
I'm not sure this solution is necessary for general usage and you can make a
private implementation for your use case if you really need it.
> Provide a way to retrieve a JCR backed resource by its node identifier

> Key: SLING-12300
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-12300
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: JCR
> Reporter: Radu Cotescu
> Assignee: Radu Cotescu
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: JCR Resource 3.3.0
>
>
> Since all {{javax.jcr.Nodes}} have an identifier [0], a useful feature would
> be {{Resource}} retrieval by node id, which could be its {{jcr:uuid}}
> property for referenceable nodes or the path. In systems that would like to
> use UUID addressing, this would reduce the need for executing JCR queries for
> resource retrieval and would avoid double-reads via the JCR and then Sling
> API to obtain the resource.
> In order to provide a unified behaviour, paths starting with the {{/jcr:id/}}
> prefix should use the resource retrieval by node identifier.
