Slowly working my way through all of the docs & advice. Thanks for all info so far. This is very helpful.
...The real reason for this is we have a lot of media files that need to be stored in a hierarchy and referenced by the above POJOs. One of the initial tasks is to create an import mechanism that unpacks a zip and extracts it into the JCR at a particular node path. What's the accepted convention for ingesting bulk data?... You might create a custom POST servlet that gets the zip stream, unpacks it (ideally streaming) and creates the corresponding nodes. Or if it's relatively small zips, copy them in an "incoming" folder in the repository via WebDAV or PUT requests and use observation to detect and process them. Which is the two options that you suggested ;-) Any pointers to samples for POST servlets that push data into the JCR? Or, an osgi module that populates the JCR, even with dummy data? I'm better at cargo-culting than I am at starting from scratch. -Bruce
