Sitemap Auto-Mount challenge
Hi People
I have a requirement to automount sub sitemaps but don't want sub sites!
To explain a little I have a single application that is growing very
large day by day and the sitemap has been divided into multiple
sub-sitemaps currently using the <map:mount> approach as follows:-
<!-- map an external sitemap for ROB100 -->
<map:match pattern="rob100**">
<map:mount uri-prefix="" src="xmap/rob100.xmap"
check-reload="no"/>
</map:match>
<!-- map an external sitemap for ROB300 -->
<map:match pattern="rob300**">
<map:mount uri-prefix="" src="xmap/rob300.xmap"
check-reload="no"/>
</map:match>
etc, etc...
While the files (xsp's, xslt, etc) all share a common directory
structure and are referenced from the sub-sitemaps. This is working fine
but I would like to remove the requirement to keep editing the main
sitemap to add these <map:mount>'s. I have investigated the automount
feature of Cocoon but this requires the files to be deployed as separate
entities each with a sitemap.xmap which I can't do as the application is
one main app with multiple modules.
Is there anyway to direct all request to rob100.xsp, rob100_logon.xsp,
rob100_search.xsp etc to the rob100.xmap while directing all requests
for rob200.xsp, rob200_* to the rob200.xmap?
I'm running Cocoon 2.1.3, Tomcat 5.0.18, JDK1.4 and would really
appreciate any guidence on this problem or any pointers on how this
could possibly be achieved (i.e. using an xpath expression or an action
etc)
Thanks in advance for any input - hope I have explained the problem ok?
Kind Regards
Rob

AW: Sitemap Auto-Mount challenge
Posted by Rob Gregory <Mi...@RosesGroup.com>.
I think I have finally cracked it ;o)
I needed to surround the cocoon replace part with '(' ')' and the other
area that gave me a problem was not escaping the '{' part of the regexp.
The final map:mount I came up with was as follows:-
<map:match type="regexp" pattern="(.\{6}).+">
<map:mount uri-prefix="" src="xmap/{1}.xmap" check-reload="no"/>
</map:match>
Which was basically as Con suggested.
Thanks again Con for the point in the right direction. This has saved me
a very large headache when it comes to deploying the modules of my web
application ;o)
All I need to do now is standardise the request call's

Thanks for the guidence Con ;o)
I tried it and it doesn't seem to work so my next question (as my regexp
skills are less than yours) is how does cocoon know which part of the
regexp to replace in the {1} part of the mount?
Also is there anyway to debug the matching process i.e. see what cocoon
is trying to mount after a request being parsed by the regexp?
Cheers
Rob

Hi Rob
Your problem is simple, you'll be pleased to know. You should use a more
powerful matcher to match your request URI. Check out the regexp matcher. My
regexp skills are very poor, but I think you want something like:
<map:match type="regexp" pattern=".{6}.+">
<map:mount uri-prefix="" src="xmap/{1}.xmap" check-reload="no"/>
</map:match>
The Regular Expression language is documented at:
http://jakarta.apache.org/regexp/apidocs/org/apache/regexp/RE.html
Good luck
Con
