NAME

Authz - content related functionality for Sling implemented over rest APIs.

ABSTRACT

Perl library providing a layer of abstraction to the REST content methods

Available privliges

jcr:read - the privilege to retrieve a node and get its properties and their values.

jcr:modifyProperties - the privilege to create, modify and remove the properties of a node.

jcr:addChildNodes - the privilege to create child nodes of a node.

jcr:removeNode - the privilege to remove a node.

jcr:removeChildNodes the privilege to remove child nodes of a node.

jcr:write an aggregate privilege that contains:

jcr:modifyProperties
jcr:addChildNodes
jcr:removeNode
jcr:removeChildNodes

jcr:readAccessControl the privilege to get the access control policy of a node.

jcr:modifyAccessControl the privilege to modify the access control policies of a node.

jcr:lockManagement the privilege to lock and unlock a node.

jcr:versionManagment the privilege to perform versioning operations on a node.

jcr:nodeTypeManagement the privilege to add and remove mixin node types and change the primary node type of a node.

jcr:retentionManagement the privilege to perform retention management operations on a node.

jcr:lifecycleManagement the privilege to perform lifecycle operations on a node.

jcr:all an aggregate privilege that contains all predefined privileges.

jcr:read
jcr:write
jcr:readAccessControl
jcr:modifyAccessControl
jcr:lockManagement
jcr:versionManagement
jcr:nodeTypeManagement
jcr:retentionManagement
jcr:lifecycleManagement

Note: In order to actually remove a node, jcr:removeNode is required on that node and jcr:removeChildNodes on the parent node. The distinction is provided in order to reflect implementations that internally model "remove" as a "delete" instead of an "unlink". A repository that uses the "delete" model can have jcr:removeChildNodes in every access control policy, so that removal is effectively controlled by jcr:removeNode.

config
