Library:Bastille

Description

A generator than can connect to PageSeeder and call a PageSeeder service.

Configuration

There is no configuration directly required with this generator; however, since this generator connects to PageSeeder, the bastille pageseeder properties must setup in the Global Configuration to define which server to connect to.

Parameters

The following parameter is required:

ps-serviceThe url path after /ps/service of the service to connect to.
For example: /groups/acme-forum/comments (required)

The following parameters can also be specified:

ps-methodThe HTTP method to use to connect to PageSeeder, must be either GET|POST; GET is the default if this parameter is not specified

Any other parameter is automatically transmitted to the PageSeeder service.

Returned XML

Error handling

If an error occurs while invoking the service, the XML also includes the error and message attributes. The HTTP status should correspond to an HTTP error code.

<ps-service resource="/members/[member id]/projects" 
            http-status="[error]"
            content-type="application/xml"
            error="[error-type]"
            message="[error-message]">
</ps-service>

Permission

This generator attempts to use the user currently logged in.

If the current user is not a PageSeeder user or if there is no user currently logged in, the request is made anonymously.

Usage

This is a generic generator; use this generator when no other specialized generator provides the same functionality.
