Version:0.6.7 - 3 June 2011
Library:Bastille
Cacheable:No
Generated:2012-12-21

Description

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

Configuration

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

Parameters

The following parameter is required:

ps-servletThe name of the servlet to connect to (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 servlet.

Returned XML

Undocumented XML response

Error handling

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

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

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.
