All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class Document
extends Object
implements Serializable

A Plain Old Java Object (POJO) representing a document in a JCR repository. Instances of this object can be returned by workflow calls to indicate to the callee which document has been created or otherwise affected.

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor	Description
Document()	Constructor that should be considered to have a protected signature rather than public and may be used for extending classes to create a new Document.
Document(String identity)	Lightweight constructor of a Document only providing a identity.
Document(Node node)	Extended classes must honor this constructor!
Document(Document document)	Copy constructor which allows to pass on a lightweight Document using its internal backing Node

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
protected Boolean	getBooleanProperty(String relPath)
protected Node	getCheckedOutNode()
Node	getCheckedOutNode(Session session)	Returns the ensured to be checked out backing Node of this Document, either directly if available and already tied to the provided Session or else retrieved from the provided Session based on its getIdentity().
protected Date	getDateProperty(String relPath)
final String	getIdentity()	Obtain the identity, if known at this point, of a document.
protected Long	getLongProperty(String relPath)
protected Node	getNode()
Node	getNode(Session session)	Returns the backing Node of this Document, either directly if available and already tied to the provided Session or else retrieved from the provided Session based on its getIdentity().

protected String	getStringProperty(String relPath)
protected String[]	getStringsProperty(String relPath)

protected final void	initialize(Node node)	Extended classes which need custom/extra initialization based on the backing Node should use the initialized() method to get wired into the initialization chain.
protected void	initialized()	Extended classes which need custom/extra initialization based on the backing Node can use this method which will get called after initialize(javax.jcr.Node) has been called.

Constructor Details

Document

public Document()

Constructor that should be considered to have a protected signature rather than public and may be used for extending classes to create a new Document.

Document

public Document(String identity)

Lightweight constructor of a Document only providing a identity.

Parameters:

identity - the identifier of a backing Node in the repository that this document instance represents.

Document

public Document(Document document)

Copy constructor which allows to pass on a lightweight Document using its internal backing Node

Parameters:

document - source document to copy the identity and possible the internal backing Node from

Document

public Document(Node node)
         throws RepositoryException

Extended classes must honor this constructor!

Parameters:

node - the backing Node in the repository that this document instance represents.

Throws:

RepositoryException

Method Details

getNode

public Node getNode(Session session)
             throws RepositoryException

Returns the backing Node of this Document, either directly if available and already tied to the provided Session or else retrieved from the provided Session based on its getIdentity().

Parameters:

session - The session for which to return the backing Node

Returns:

the backing Node of this Document or null if this Document doesn't contain a identity

Throws:

RepositoryException

getCheckedOutNode

public Node getCheckedOutNode(Session session)
                       throws RepositoryException

Returns the ensured to be checked out backing Node of this Document, either directly if available and already tied to the provided Session or else retrieved from the provided Session based on its getIdentity().

Parameters:

session - The session for which to return the backing Node

Returns:

the ensured to be checked out backing Node of this Document or null if this Document doesn't contain a identity

Throws:

RepositoryException

hasNode

public boolean hasNode()

Returns:

true if this document has a backing Node

getIdentity

public final String getIdentity()

Obtain the identity, if known at this point, of a document. The identity of a Document is the identity of the primary Node used in persisting the data of the document.

A Document returned for example by a workflow step can be accessed using:

Node node = session.getNodeByIdentifier(document.getIdentity());

or even easier and possibly more efficient:

Node node = document.getNode(session);

Returns:

a string containing the UUID of the Node representing the Document. or null if not available.

getNode

protected Node getNode()

getCheckedOutNode

protected Node getCheckedOutNode()
                          throws RepositoryException

Throws:

RepositoryException

initialize

protected final void initialize(Node node)
                         throws RepositoryException

Extended classes which need custom/extra initialization based on the backing Node should use the initialized() method to get wired into the initialization chain.

Parameters:

node - the backing Node in the repository that this document instance represents.

Throws:

RepositoryException

initialized

protected void initialized()

Extended classes which need custom/extra initialization based on the backing Node can use this method which will get called after initialize(javax.jcr.Node) has been called.
