Jackrabbit repository viewer?

[Zhenhua Guo]

I wonder how you view the content in Jackrabbit repository for debugging.
I tried to insert some nodes into repository and use the jackrabbit
built-in webapp to browse the repository (via "Remote access" link
like http://host:port/jackrabbit/server/default/jcr:root). But I can
only see the root node within the returned xml data.
I wonder how the "Remote access" link is supposed to work. Can it be
used to browse all nodes and properties added to the repository?
Thanks

Remote access is for client applications that want to access the
repository remotely. server/default is the endpoint for the "default"
workspace of the JCR webdav server. Since it's HTTP and WebDAV, the
protocol is human readable, but it's not really an UI for browsing the
repository.

Hi Gerald,

I've searched recently for a good viewer. There's no perfect option.

The best hope is related to way for the donation of the CRX explorer.


Today, I've opted for jcr-explorer (jcr_controller is viable, but it's not a
web tool).

I haven't used it recently, but the CRX Eclipse plugin was pretty
close to perfect (and usable with JackRabbit). IIRC, free as in beer.

Hi Justin,

I tried CRX Eclipse plugin, but it's not a perfect fit for Jackrabbit (I
can't use it with 1.6).... and It's not web. It's oriented for development
purposes.

IIRC, the plugin provided an extension point for supporting new JR/CRX
versions, so adding JR 1.6 support is feasible.

But yes, it's clearly a dev tool. Which I thought was the original
question.

The easiest tool to integrate into any application is most likely one
that relies on only JSPs, and possibly a simple javascript library, eg
jquery loaded from google's servers.

To be precise, IIRC is free as in beer for non-commercial use.

So... I'm back to jcr-explorer (Apache License
