Jackalope Transport library using the filesystem

Jackalope Filesystem PHPCR implementation

, _(*1)

This is a WIP implementation to support a filesystem implementation of PHPCR., _(*2)

Connecting

Connect as follows:, _(*3)

$factory = new RepositoryFactoryFilesystem();
$repository = $factory->getRepository(array(
    'path' => '/home/mystuff/somefolder',
));
$credentials = new SimpleCredentials('admin', 'admin');
$session = $repository->login($credentials);

Options:, _(*4)

• path: (required) Path to store data, indexes, etc.
• search_enabled: If search should be enabled or not (default true)

Limitations

Node copy

• References not updated within copied subtree (this test is missing from PHPCR-API tests)

Querying

ZendSearch Lucene (native PHP)

Not supported:, _(*5)

• Node type inheritance: Currently node type inheritance is not taken into account - this should be fixed ASAP
• Joins: Will need to be implemented in a post processor
• LOWERCASE, UPPERCASE, LENGTH operands: Same as above
• SQL and XPath query langauges: Will probably never be implemented
• Full text search: Easy to implement if we add an additional search index

File handling

• Files (binary data in the repository) are not current handled in a memory efficient manner. This will be addressed.

Testing

The default ZendSearch implementation doesn't behave very well when the full test suite is being run - it will tend to become corrupt after a certain number of operations. It is therefore necessary to batch the tests., _(*6)
