  • Field Details

    • PARAM_DESTINATION_NODE

      static final String PARAM_DESTINATION_NODE
      Deprecated.
      This optional NodeRef parameter specifies an existing NodeRef to use as the rendition node. Properties on this node (including the content property cm:content) will be updated as required but the location and name of the node will not change. This parameter takes precedence over PARAM_DESTINATION_PATH_TEMPLATE.
      See Also:
    • PARAM_DESTINATION_PATH_TEMPLATE

      static final String PARAM_DESTINATION_PATH_TEMPLATE
      Deprecated.
      This optional String parameter indicates where the rendition will be created. The parameter may specify either the actual file path to the rendition or it may specify a Freemarker template which can be resolved to a file path. In either case the path is relative to the root node of the store in which the source node exists. If the parameter PARAM_DESTINATION_NODE has been set then this parameter will be ignored.
      See Also:
    • PARAM_RENDITION_NODETYPE

      static final String PARAM_RENDITION_NODETYPE
      Deprecated.
      This optional QName parameter specifies what the node type of the created rendition will be. If no type is specified then this defaults to cm:content.
      See Also:
    • PARAM_ORPHAN_EXISTING_RENDITION

      static final String PARAM_ORPHAN_EXISTING_RENDITION
      Deprecated.
      This optional Boolean flag parameter determines whether an existing rendition is moved or orphaned. If the source node already has a rendition and this parameter is false the old rendition will be moved to the new destination location and updated appropriately. If this parameter is set to true then the old rendition will be left in its current location and the rold rendition association from the source node to the old rendition will be deleted.
      See Also:
    • PARAM_IS_COMPONENT_RENDITION

      static final String PARAM_IS_COMPONENT_RENDITION
      Deprecated.
      This optional boolean parameter specified whether the rendition is a component within a composite rendition. Such component renditions should not execute the standard pre- and post-rendition behaviour as it will be taken care of by the CompositeRenderingEngine's execution.

    • isRendition

      @NotAuditable boolean isRendition(NodeRef node)

      true if a rendition, else false
    • getSourceNode

      @NotAuditable ChildAssociationRef getSourceNode(NodeRef renditionNode)

      Parameters:
      renditionNode - the nodeRef holding the rendition.
      Returns:
      the ChildAssociationRef whose parentNodeRef is the source node, or null if there is no source node.

    • usingRenditionService2

      @NotAuditable boolean usingRenditionService2(NodeRef sourceNodeRef, RenditionDefinition rendDefn)
      Deprecated.
      If a rendition has been created by the newer RenditionService2, this method will return true. In this case the original RenditionService should not be used to update an existing rendition if the content changes. These renditions can be identified by the existence of the rendition2 aspect. RenditionService2 also listens for content changes and will perform the rendition.

      If RenditionService2 has a definition with the same name (matched on the local part of the supplied rendDef's name) and the target mimetype matches, RenditionService2 will also be used. This is being done to help with the conversion of custom transformers and renditions. The basic definitions (called "medium", "doclib", "imgpreview", "avatar", "avatar32", "webpreview", "pdf") already exist. Rather than writing a converter form one definition to the newer one, it is suggested that a newer RenditionDefinition2 is simply defined to avoid having to worry about any complexities in converting TransformationOptions into a simple flat Map structure.
