Jackalope

A powerful implementation of the PHPCR API.

You can use Jackalope with different storage backends. For now, we support relational databases with the DoctrineDBAL backend, and the Jackrabbit server with the Jackrabbit backend. There is a different factory for each backend, see below for an introduction.

Preconditions

• libxml version >= 2.7.0 (due to a bug in libxml http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=36501)
• phpunit >= 3.5 (if you want to run the tests)

Setup

See https://github.com/jackalope/jackalope/wiki/Downloads

Tests

See the wiki pages for how to set up testing: DoctrineDBAL | Jackrabbit.

Usage

The entry point is to create the repository factory. The factory specifies the storage backend as well.

// see the Doctrine factory for available parameters for the doctrine backend
// alternatively use \Jackalope\RepositoryFactoryDoctrineDBAL
$repository = \Jackalope\RepositoryFactoryJackrabbit::getRepository(array('jackalope.jackrabbit_uri' => 'http://localhost:8080/server'));
$credentials = new SimpleCredentials('username', 'password');
$session = $repository->login($credentials, 'default');

$rootNode = $session->getNode("/");
$whitewashing = $rootNode->addNode("www-whitewashing-de");
$session->save();

$posts = $whitewashing->addNode("posts");
$session->save();

$post = $posts->addNode("welcome-to-blog");
$post->addMixin("mix:title");
$post->setProperty("jcr:title", "Welcome to my Blog!");
$post->setProperty("jcr:description", "This is the first post on my blog! Do you like it?");

$session->save();

See https://github.com/phpcr/phpcr/blob/master/doc/Tutorial.md for how to use the PHPCR API

Implementation

See (doc/architecture.md) for an introduction how Jackalope is built. Have a look at the source files and generate the phpdoc.
