I'd certainly support that extension point. Let a thousand
pseudo-protocols bloom, with the possible exception of "javascript:". I
think I'd rather get there without registering new protocol handlers at
the JVM configuration level.

So based on Ben's note about Java's extensibility with regard to
adding protocol handlers, and the work that Greg has done, it sounds
like it might be useful to make this extensibility a core feature?

Hey Jörg,
We are doing something very similar to your case. I have an
ExternalContentManager that works with iRODS, but it also required
patching two other classes in fcrepo-server. I've pasted a patch
below and attached the ExternalContentManager class. We just support
the iRODS protocol so that we can ingest from an iRODS staging area.
I think your project is also pursuing an Akubra-iRODS module? Will
you still be pursuing managed datastreams in iRODS?
I hope this helps.
thanks,

Hello Steve,
we plan to use fedora as frontend for iRODS. So, we will allow direct
ingest in iRODS. The ingested files are subsequently registered in
fedora by an callback mechanism.
The idea was, to do this with an "external referenced" datastream.
<foxml:datastream ID="DS5" STATE="A" CONTROL_GROUP="E"
VERSIONABLE="true">
<foxml:datastreamVersion ID="DS5.0" LABEL="ds5 label"
CREATED="2010-12-02T10:45:17.785Z" MIMETYPE="application/pdf">
<foxml:contentLocation TYPE="URL"
REF="irods://zone/home/user/datastreams/info:fedora/test:1/DS5/DS5.0"/>
</foxml:datastreamVersion>
</foxml:datastream>
So i take a look at ExternalContentManager
and DefaultExternalContentManager.
Thanks,
Jörg

Hi Jörg
Currently only http and file protocols are supported.
External content is managed by an ExternalContentManager - the only one
implemented currently is the DefaultExternalContentManager. This is
specified in fedora.fcfg so theoretically it's possible to provide an
alternative to manage other URI schemes (or indeed extend the existing
content manager to do this; perhaps some configuration information to
specify how different protocols should be resolved).
For "R" datastreams Fedora simply issues a temporary redirect with
the URI
to redirect to, so it would be the browser (or client) responsibility to
handle the resolution for non-http schemes.
This sounds to me like, it is possible for "R" to use other schemes,
but we get a Malformed URL Exception on ingest.
For "E" datastreams the resolution is via the ExternalContentManager, so
implementation of additional URL schemes would be an option for these.
What URL schemes would you like to see supported?
Regards
Steve

Subject: [fcrepo-user] Control Group - supported URL schemes
Hello,
can someone tell me, if there are other URL schemes supported for the
control groups "Redirect" and "External Referenced" in addition to
"http"?
Regards,
Jörg
