OpenCMIS Fileshare Repository

This repository is not intended for production use!

The FileShare repository uses the file system as its back-end store and provides read/write access to content and metadata. In other words, it puts a CMIS interface on top of your file system.

The repository is restricted by the capabilities of the file system and therefore does not support relationships, policies, document versions, multi-filing, un-filing and query.

By default it provides a repository "test" that uses your home directory as the repository root. It requires authentication. A user "test" with the password "test" is pre-configured.

  1. Follow this guide: Build OpenCMIS.
  2. A ready-to-use WAR file should now exist in /chemistry-opencmis-server/chemistry-opencmis-server-fileshare/target.
  3. Deploy the WAR file to your favorite servlet engine.
  4. AtomPub endpoint: http://<host>:<port>/<context>/atom
    Web Services endpoint: http://<host>:<port>/<context>/services/RepositoryService
