Interface NodeOpsV1

    public interface NodeOpsV1

extends Serializable, ISPITicketMarker

NodeOps is a Ticket interface for Node CRUD operations.

It is used to manage Nodes, including their Property values, in a content repository. Nodes are objects in a hierarchy of nodes, which have Properties. Properties have property Values.

NodeOpsV1 rules are defined below.

All Nodes are uniquely identified through:

- 1) their ID, which contains a uid that uniquely identifies it within the repository. This uid may be the path, a database id, etc.
- 2) their path that uniquely identifies it within a repository. The path is a sequence of node names in unix-like format such as /a/b/c where / is the root and a is the name of root's child, b is the name of a's child, etc. Unlike a node retrieved from the VCR, a node passed to/from the SPI has no repository name at the start of its node path -- for example, /repoName/a/b is not possible, but /a/b is possible. The path must always begin with / and never end with it, so neither of the following are valid: a/b/c/d or /a/b/d/d/. Node names must not contain either forward or backslashes.

  The repository root (path /) is an artificial construct and cannot be fetched; no node can have this path. However, it has an ID (UID is empty), and this can be used to retrieve all children at the top level of the repository.

  All Properties are identified through their ID, which includes a uid that uniquely identifies the Property (and containing node) in the repository.

  A Node may either be a Content Node or a Hierarchy Node as defined by its node type, an attribute of a Node. This concept is deprecated; a newly written repository should only support Content nodes.

  If a node has an ObjectClass, it may contain a Property for each PropertyDefinition of its ObjectClass and each Property must match the shape as defined by its corresponding PropertyDefinition. For example, if the ObjectClass has a single-valued property called 'sProp' of type String, a Node of that ObjectClass has a single-valued property called 'sProp' of type String. Properties are associated with PropertyDefinitions by property name.

  Many operations use ID objects as parameters. Before a node has been created, or when a new property is being added, the ID (or UID) may be null, because the property has not been created yet. After a node has been created, it must have a non-null ID (and UID). All nodes (and properties) returned by the repository must have a non-null UID.

  The ID uid will be null when dealing with the repository root node. For all other nodes in the repository, the ID uid must be non-null. For example a call to getNodeChildren(ID id) with a correct repository name and a null uid will return all Nodes at the top level of that repository.

  The repository implementation may have more specific validation rules than those defined above. If a repository considers an attempted operation invalid, it can throw a RepositoryException or UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException. If a repository does not implement a certain operation, it should report this via the method Ticket.getCapabilitySupport(Set capabilities), so applications can detect support for capabilities before attempting them.

  If a Node has an ObjectClass associated with it, whenever it is retrieved, the ObjectClass must be configured on the Node.

  The node's User Properties (the properties defined by the ObjectClass) need not be present on the node when it is returned by the repository. For performance reasons, these can optionally be lazy loaded by the call to Node.getProperties().

  If the repository is returning all properties immmediately, it should set the properties on the returned Node. If the repository wants the properties to be lazy-loaded, it should use NULL for the Node properties on the returned Node.

  The properties approach can be selected on a per-method basis. For the getNode implementations, it is best to initially set the Properties on the return.

  ### getNodeReferences

      ID[] getNodeReferences(ID nodeId)
                             throws RepositoryException

    Retrieve all nodes in this repository which have a link property referring to the specified node. Note that the specified node may be from a different repository, so it's important to check both the repository name and uid in the nodeId.

    Parameters
      `nodeId` - The `ID` of the referred-to node.
    Returns
      An array of node IDs which refer to the given node, empty if there are no matches.

  ### orderBefore

      void orderBefore(ID parentNodeId,

                       ID destChildNodeId)
                       throws RepositoryException

    If the parent node type supports child node ordering, this method inserts the child node at `srcChildNodeId` before its sibling, the child node at `destChildNodeId`. Both nodes must be immediate children of the parent node, `parentNodeId`. If parentNodeId's uid is null, then the parent node is the repository root node.

    To place the node `srcChildNodeId` at the end of the list, a `destChildNodeId` of `null` is used.

    If `srcChildNodeId` and `destChildNodeId` are the same, then no change is made.

    If this node does not support child node ordering, then a `UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException` is thrown.

    If one of the nodes does not exist, then a `NoSuchNodeException` is thrown.

    If `destChildNodeId` is neither `null` nor a sibling of srcChildNodeId, then a `NoSuchNodeException` is also thrown.

    If this operation would violate a node type or implementation-specific constraint, a `ConstraintViolationException` will be thrown.

    Parameters
      `parentNodeId` - the parent of both srcChildNodeId and destChildNodeId (null uid for repo root)
      `srcChildNodeId` - the child node to be moved in the ordering
      `destChildNodeId` - the child node before which the node `srcChildNodeId` will be placed, or null to move the srcChildNode to the last position.

    Throws
      `ConstraintViolationException` - if an implementation-specific constraint is violated
      `NoSuchNodeException` - if neither child node exists or if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to view any of the parentNodeId, srcChildNodeId, or destChildNodeId
      `AuthorizationException` - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it
      `RepositoryException` - if another error occurs

  ### deleteNode

      void deleteNode(ID nodeId)
                      throws RepositoryException

    This method performs a full cascade delete on a Node and its children. The specified node, all its descendant Nodes, and all properties for these nodes are removed in the process.

    Parameters
      `nodeId` - - the id of the Node to be deleted. Cannot be the repository root node. (uid=null)

    Throws
      `NoSuchNodeException` - - if the node to delete can't be found, or if the user attempting the operation is not authorized view the node.

    This method moves a Node (and its descendents) to a new location in the node hierarchy.

    The parent for the source node will be changed, but all descendants of the source node will keep their parent relationships intact. The path must be updated for all nodes which were moved.

    If the uid is null for the destinationId, the desination will be the repository root node.

    Parameters
      `sourceId` - - the id of the Node to be moved
      `destinationId` - - the id of the Node under which the sourceId Node is moved. If uid is null, the repository root node.

                          throws RepositoryException

    Updates the node with the specified id to contain the specified objectClass and properties (content and meta-content). Each property specified in properties must have an associated PropertyDefinition defined on the ObjectClass. One or more of (new) property IDs may be null or have no UIDs.

    If the node already has an ObjectClass and properties, they will be replaced.

    If there is a PropertyDefinition in the given ObjectClass with no corresponding Property in the properties array, a Property will be created with a default value, or a null value if there is no default, unless the Property is required, in which case a validation exception will be thrown.

    Parameters
      `nodeId` - - the ID for the node to update.
      `objectClassId` - - the ID for new objectClass.
      `properties` - - the new properties on the Node. Additional unspecified properties may also exist.
    Returns
      the updated Node.
    Throws
      `AuthorizationException` - - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it.
      `NoSuchObjectClassException` - thrown if the ObjectClass to set on the Node does not exist.
      `NoSuchNodeException` - - if the Node to update does not exist or the caller has no rights to view it.
      `RepositoryException` - - if validation error occurs.

  ### updateProperties

    Updates the node with the specified id with the specified property values.

    The node must already have an ObjectClass associated with it. Each property specified in properties must have an associated PropertyDefinition defined on the ObjectClass. One or more of (new) property IDs may be null or have no UIDs.

    This method only updates the specified properties; the Node may have additional existing properties, and if they are not in the properties array, then they will not be modified.

    Parameters
      `nodeId` - - the ID of the node to update. The ID must include the repositoryName.
      `properties` - - the properties to update on the Node. Existing unspecified properties may also exist.

  ### save

      Node save(Node node)
                throws RepositoryException

    This method updates an existing node (and its metadata) in a single transaction. The metadata will be updated as specified, including changed properties. The Node's properties will be set to the properties of the node argument.

    If some property values are not specified on the incoming node argument, they will be cleared (made null).

    This is a less granular way of performing similar actions like addNodeContent, moveNode, renameNode, and updateProperties. Additionally this provides access to modify a node's workflow status and workflow id.

    The node is assumed to be retrieved from this API and therefore properly formed when this call is made.

    The following node metadata are system managed, and cannot be modified via this API. created by, created date, modified by, modified date and path (modifying the parent node name will cause the node path to be updated properly).

    Parameters
      `node` - The node to update with the new state configured.
    Returns
      The updated node
    Throws
      `AuthorizationException` - - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it.
      `RepositoryException` - - if validation error occurs.

  ### removeNodeContent

      Node removeNodeContent(ID nodeId)
                             throws RepositoryException

    Removes the Node's properties and its ObjectClass. The node is not removed.

    Parameters
      `nodeId` - - the id for the Node to remove the ObjectClass (and properties) from.
    Returns
      the updated Node.
    Throws
      `NoSuchNodeException` - - if the node does not exist or the caller has no rights to view the node
      `AuthorizationException` - - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it.
      `RepositoryException` - - if validation error occurs.

  ### getProperties

                               throws RepositoryException

    Retrieve all Properties for a Node, except the binary value content of a binary property.

    For binary properties, the BinaryValue will not contain the binary content (though the mime type and other binary properties will be retrieved). To retrieve a binary property value, a call to (@link #getPropertyBytes} is necessary.

    Parameters
      `nodeId` - - the id for the node.
    Returns
      An array of Node Properties, an empty array if a node has no properties or ObjectClass.
    Throws
      `NoSuchNodeException` - - if the node does not exist or the caller has no rights to view the node
      `AuthorizationException` - - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it.
      `RepositoryException`
