             Summary: Improvements to the GQL tools
                 Key: JCR-3812
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3812
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: jackrabbit-jcr-commons
            Reporter: Thomas Mueller
            Assignee: Thomas Mueller


The GQL tool currently only supports full-text constraints ("jcr:contains"). I would like to add other constraints as well, for example "jcr:like". For that I would like to use the syntax 

{noformat}
"jcr:nativeXPath":"jcr:like(@property, '%test%')"
{noformat}

For debugging and testing, I would like to have a way to get the XPath query instead of executing the query. Also, it would be nice to have a way to execute an XPath query, using the filter mechanism of this tool.

To simplify testing, the session should be optional.

The tool always adds an "order by" constraint. I would like to make this optional. The syntax is:

{noformat}
order:-
{noformat}

(currently, '-' is used to sort descending).
