R: [opencms-dev] opencms and web application

[CIMINI LIVIA]

Thanx Arash for your suggestions,

our aim is to use opencms just only as content management and display contents in jetspeed2, so we need contents at runtime and to make an export perhaps is not a solution that could fit to our needs.

By the way what do you mean with webservices? Are you suggesting us to write a class implementing the query to the db, integrate it in opencms, and then make a webservice with it? It sounds to me a jolly good idea...

 

Ciao

Livia

Hi Livia,

you can also export the content and the structure of your content-tree (navigation) statically (as XML or HTML) to the filesystem and include the contents into your app.

>> - Is it possible to run opencms API outside opencms context?

it is possible.  -> over webservices.

- if not, the only solution is to query opencms database directly, isn' it?

no, the static export is fine for our portal integration projects.

Kind Regards, Arash

 

 

What kind of external app do you have?

 

 


 

We need to access the contents managed by opencms 6.2, from an external web application deployed on the same web server (tomcat) 

but this application can't be internal to opencms (as suggested somewhere).

So, these are my questions:

- Is it possible to run opencms API outside opencms context?

- if not, the only solution is to query opencms database directly, isn' it?

Thanks

Livia
