Connecting to a remote Jackrabbit repository

[Bastian Spanneberg <ba...@linkwerk.com>]

Hi

I'm looking for a clean way to connect to a remote Jackrabbit repository
with the JCR 2.0 API. There are to examples in the specification using
an implementation of RepositoryFactory and the using the
getRepository(Map<String, String>) method.

However, the specification states that the parameters are
vendor-specific, and I didn't find the values I need to use to connect
to a remote Jackrabbit repository (I run Jetty + jackrabbit-webapp on
localhost:8080).

Can anyone point to a documentation on this one or post the parameter
keys/values to use for connecting to an existing Jackrabbit repository ?

Currently I use the jackrabbit-jcr-rmi module in version 1.5 to do

Repository repository =
URLRemoteRepository("http://localhost:8080/jackrabbit/rmi");

I've also tried doing

Repository repository =
JcrUtils.getRepository("http://localhost:8080/jackrabbit/server");

with different values for the connection URI, but none of the worked.

I'm looking for a more clean way to establish the connection, preferably
without using Jackrabbit implementation class in such a direct way.

Greetings
Bastian

Thx a lot.

I already found that page and tried it, but first it didn't work.

Maybe the problem was that I had not included the jackrabbit-jcr2dav
dependency, because when using the m2eclipse > Add dependency dialog, it
didn't show up. The JcrUtils class was visible, because it was included
in the jackrabbit-jcr-commons.

Now I've just put it into the POM and removed the jackrabbit-core
2.0-beta5, and it works as it should.
