Adapter/library for meta data repositories?

Ruby JRuby
1

Hello there,

does anyone know something similar to ActiveRecord or ActiveResource
which can be used to handle data in meta data repositories like Apache
Jackrabbit?

At the moment I handle the data in my controllers. So I do not really
have model representation. That’s the reason why some nice features of
rails can’t be used or can only be used quite difficult, for example
creating model based forms.

An “ActiveRepository”-adapter would simplify the work with real models.
Most Repositories are based on Java technology. That’s why I ask here an
not an a Rails list.

kind regards,
Marco

I don’t know of anything, but it probably wouldn’t be hard to start
putting something together. I’m not familiar with the structure of
Apache Jackrabbit’s data store, but if you’re able to call it from
Ruby you should be able to wrap it with a nice Ruby library too…

Hi Charlie,

it is possible to call it from jruby. It is written in Java and support
object related storing in the current version 2.0.
Maybe I start to write a small plugin to cover the basic methods of
ActiveRecord.

Thanks for your reply =)

kind regards,
marco
