Overriding the base URL in the AtomPub service document?

[Nick Burch <ni...@alfresco.com>]

Hi All

When using the OpenCMIS server, is it possible to change the base URL used 
in the AtomPub service document?

Currently, as far as I can tell, the <collection href= URLs are all 
generated by AtomPubUtils based on the details on the HttpServletRequest. 
What I'd like to be able to do is override that for some cases, such as 
when the OpenCMIS server is behind a reverse proxy. What I can't seem to 
find is how I go about changing that...

Is it possible to override the base URL that's used? And if so, could 
someone please point me at how to do that? :)

Cheers
Nick

OK, thanks for the info. I'd been looking for something inside to change 
it, rather than just wrapping the servlet

I'll look forward to it in 0.7. If need be, I'll try and bribe Gab with 
beer on the weekend to get him to run the maven magic.... :)

 Hi Nick,

 Yes, it is possible. Some Servlet Engines can be configured to use 
 another host name. For Tomcat see this page: [1]
 OpenCMIS 0.7.0 will ship a filter [2], which extracts the host name and 
 HTTP scheme from the HTTP headers if the proxy provides them.


 Cheers,

 Florian
