Method Detail

initialize

void initialize(String blobProviderId,
                Map<String,String> properties)
         throws IOException

Initializes the blob provider.

Parameters:

blobProviderId - the blob provider id for this binary manager

properties - initialization properties

Throws:

IOException

Since:

7.3

close

void close()

Closes this blob provider and releases resources that may be held by it.

Since:

7.3

readBlob

Blob readBlob(BlobInfo blobInfo)
       throws IOException

Reads a Blob from storage.

Parameters:

blobInfo - the blob information

Returns:

the blob

Throws:

IOException

writeBlob

String writeBlob(Blob blob)
          throws IOException

Writes a Blob to storage and returns information about it.

Called to store a user-created blob.

Parameters:

blob - the blob

Returns:

the blob key

Throws:

A user update refers to the fact that a blob from this provider may be overwritten with another blob, wherever the original blob may occur (usually in a document property).

Returns:

true if user update is supported

getStream

default InputStream getStream(ManagedBlob blob)
                       throws IOException

Gets an InputStream for the data of a managed blob.

Like all InputStream, the result must be closed when done with it to avoid resource leaks.

Parameters:

blob - the managed blob

Returns:

the stream

getThumbnail

default InputStream getThumbnail(ManagedBlob blob)
                          throws IOException

Gets an InputStream for a thumbnail of a managed blob.

Like all InputStream, the result must be closed when done with it to avoid resource leaks.

Parameters:

blob - the managed blob

Returns:

the stream

Throws:

IOException

Since:

7.3

getURI

default URI getURI(ManagedBlob blob,
                   BlobManager.UsageHint hint,
                   javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest servletRequest)
            throws IOException

Gets an URI for the content of a managed blob.

Parameters:

blob - the managed blob

hint - BlobManager.UsageHint

servletRequest - the servlet request, or null

Returns:

the URI, or null if none available

Throws:

IOException

Since:

7.4

getAvailableConversions

default Map<String,URI> getAvailableConversions(ManagedBlob blob,
                                                BlobManager.UsageHint hint)
                                         throws IOException

Gets a map of available MIME type conversions and corresponding URI for a managed blob.

Parameters:

blob - the managed blob

hint - BlobManager.UsageHint

Returns:

a map of MIME types and URI, which may be empty

Throws:

IOException

Since:

7.3

isVersion

default boolean isVersion(ManagedBlob blob)

Returns true if version of the blob is a version.

Parameters:

blob - the managed blob

Returns:

true if the blob is a version or a revision

getAppLinks

default List<AppLink> getAppLinks(String user,
                                  ManagedBlob blob)
                           throws IOException

Returns a list of application links for the given blob.

Throws:

IOException
