Class CmsObject

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.opencms.file.CmsObject

public final class CmsObject
extends java.lang.Object

This pivotal class provides all authorized access to the OpenCms VFS resources.

It encapsulates user identification and permissions. Think of it as an initialized "shell" to access the OpenCms VFS. Every call to a method here will be checked for user permissions according to the CmsRequestContext this CmsObject instance was created with.

From a JSP page running in OpenCms, use CmsJspBean.getCmsObject() to gain access to the current users CmsObject. Usually this is done with a CmsJspActionElement.

To generate a new instance of this class in your application, use OpenCms.initCmsObject(String). The argument String should be the name of the guest user, usually "Guest" and more formally obtained by CmsDefaultUsers.getUserGuest(). This will give you an initialized context with guest user permissions. Then use loginUser(String, String) to log in the user you want. Obviously you need the password for the new user. You should never try to create an instance of this class using the constructor, this is reserved for internal operation only.

In case the input CmsResource object already is a CmsFile with contents available, it is casted to a file and returned unchanged. Otherwise the file is read from the VFS.

In case you do not need the file content, use readResource(String) or readResource(String, CmsResourceFilter) instead.

No resource filter is applied when reading the resource, since we already have a full resource instance and assume we just want the content for that instance. In case you need to apply a filter, use readFile(String, CmsResourceFilter) instead.

Parameters:
resource - the resource to read
Returns:
the file resource that was read
Throws:
CmsException - if the file resource could not be read for any reason

Reads a file resource (including it's binary content) from the VFS, using the specified resource filter.

In case you do not need the file content, use readResource(String, CmsResourceFilter) instead.

The specified filter controls what kind of resources should be "found" during the read operation. This will depend on the application. For example, using CmsResourceFilter.DEFAULT will only return currently "valid" resources, while using CmsResourceFilter.IGNORE_EXPIRATION will ignore the date release / date expired information of the resource.

Parameters:
resourcename - the name of the resource to read (full current site relative path)
filter - the resource filter to use while reading

                                      java.lang.String property,
                                      boolean search)
                               throws CmsException
Reads a property object from a resource specified by a property name.

Returns CmsProperty.getNullProperty() if the property is not found.

Parameters:
resourcePath - the name of resource where the property is attached to
property - the property name
search - if true, the property is searched on all parent folders of the resource, if it's not found attached directly to the resource
Returns:
the required property, or CmsProperty.getNullProperty() if the property was not found
Throws:
CmsException - if something goes wrong

readPropertyObjects

public java.util.List readPropertyObjects(CmsResource resource,
                                          boolean search)
                                   throws CmsException
Reads all property objects from a resource.

Returns an empty list if no properties are found.

This method is more efficient then using readPropertyObjects(String, boolean) if you already have an instance of the resource to look up the property from.

If the search parameter is true, the properties of all parent folders of the resource are also read. The results are merged with the properties directly attached to the resource. While merging, a property on a parent folder that has already been found will be ignored. So e.g. if a resource has a property "Title" attached, and it's parent folder has the same property attached but with a different value, the result list will contain only the property with the value from the resource, not form the parent folder(s).

Parameters:
resource - the resource where the property is mapped to
search - if true, the properties of all parent folders of the resource are merged with the resource properties.
Returns:
a list of CmsProperty objects
Throws:
CmsException - if something goes wrong

readPropertyObjects

public java.util.List readPropertyObjects(java.lang.String resourcePath,
                                          boolean search)
                                   throws CmsException
Reads all property objects from a resource.

Returns an empty list if no properties are found.

All properties in the result List will be in frozen (read only) state, so you can't change the values.

If the search parameter is true, the properties of all parent folders of the resource are also read. The results are merged with the properties directly attached to the resource. While merging, a property on a parent folder that has already been found will be ignored. So e.g. if a resource has a property "Title" attached, and it's parent folder has the same property attached but with a different value, the result list will contain only the property with the value from the resource, not form the parent folder(s).

Parameters:
resourcePath - the name of resource where the property is mapped to
search - if true, the properties of all parent folders of the resource are merged with the resource properties.
Returns:
a list of CmsProperty objects
Throws:
CmsException - if something goes wrong

readResource

public CmsResource readResource(CmsUUID structureID)
                         throws CmsException
Reads a resource from the VFS, using the CmsResourceFilter.DEFAULT filter.

A resource may be of type CmsFile or CmsFolder. In case of a file, the resource will not contain the binary file content. Since reading the binary content is a cost-expensive database operation, it's recommended to work with resources if possible, and only read the file content when absolutely required. To "upgrade" a resource to a file, use readFile(CmsResource).

Parameters:
structureID - the structure ID of the resource to read
Returns:
the resource that was read
Throws:
CmsException - if the resource could not be read for any reason
See Also:
readFile(String), readResource(CmsUUID, CmsResourceFilter)

readResource

public CmsResource readResource(CmsUUID structureID,

                         throws CmsException
Reads a resource from the VFS, using the specified resource filter.

A resource may be of type CmsFile or CmsFolder. In case of a file, the resource will not contain the binary file content. Since reading the binary content is a cost-expensive database operation, it's recommended to work with resources if possible, and only read the file content when absolutely required. To "upgrade" a resource to a file, use readFile(CmsResource).

The specified filter controls what kind of resources should be "found" during the read operation. This will depend on the application. For example, using CmsResourceFilter.DEFAULT will only return currently "valid" resources, while using CmsResourceFilter.IGNORE_EXPIRATION will ignore the date release / date expired information of the resource.

Parameters:
structureID - the structure ID of the resource to read
filter - the resource filter to use while reading
Returns:
the resource that was read
Throws:
CmsException - if the resource could not be read for any reason

                                         CmsVfsResourceNotFoundException
Reads the historical resource with the given version for the resource given the given structure id.

A resource may be of type CmsFile or CmsFolder. In case of a file, the resource will not contain the binary file content. Since reading the binary content is a cost-expensive database operation, it's recommended to work with resources if possible, and only read the file content when absolutely required. To "upgrade" a resource to a file, use readFile(CmsResource).

Please note that historical versions are just generated during publishing, so the first version with version number 1 is generated during publishing of a new resource (exception is a new sibling, that may also contain some relevant versions of already published siblings) and the last version available is the version of the current online resource.

Parameters:
structureID - the structure ID of the resource to read
version - the version number you want to retrieve
Returns:
the resource that was read
Throws:
CmsException - if the resource could not be read for any reason
CmsVfsResourceNotFoundException - if the version does not exists
