| <h1>Warning!</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| The XML:DB generators are currently unmaintained and going to be |
| deprecated soon. Please use the XML:DB pseudo-protocol instead. |
| </p> |

| |
| <h1>XML:DB Collection Generator</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| As for the filesystem there are two generators provided (a file |
| generator and a directory generator), so is for XML:DB, which |
| can roughly be tought as an XML filesystem, where Collections |
| stand for directories and Resources stand for (XML) files. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| This generator outputs a list of collections and resources |
| given a starting collection. It can be used together with |
| the XMLDBGeneratot, and coupled with the appropriate XSLT, |
| to easily navigate any XML:DB compliant database. |
| </p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| |
| <li>Name: xmldbcollection</li> |
| |
| <li>Class: org.apache.cocoon.generation.XMLDBCollectionGenerator</li> |
| |
| <li>Cacheable: no</li> |
| |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p> |
| The configuration is the same of the XMLDBGenerator: it needsi |
| a driver (a class name) and base URI. An example |
| configuration, based on the stock dbXML implementation, will look like |
| this: |
| </p> |
| |
| <pre class="code"> |
| <map:generator name="xmldbcollection" |
| src="org.apache.cocoon.generation.XMLDBGenerator" |
| label="content"> |
| <driver>org.dbxml.client.xmldb.DatabaseImpl</driver> |
| <base>xmldb:dbxml:///db/</base> |
| </map:generator> |
| </pre> |
| |
| <p> |
| Note that the content of the "base" tag will be prepended to the |
| requested resource. It's important to keep a trailing slash at the |
| end of the <span class="codefrag">base</span> tag. |
| </p> |
