public class FileSystemRESTServices
extends Object

FileSystemRESTServices provides the server-side implementation for managing files and folder assets in a file system. Notice that the integrator identifiers are not specified for the file system because the files can be changed by so many processes. If the files are being controlled by an application then use the ContentManagerRESTServices

                                             NewDataFileRequestBody requestBody)

Add a simple asset description linked to a connection object for a file and to the folder structure implied in the path name. If the folder structure is not catalogued already, this is created automatically using the createFolderStructureInCatalog() method. For example, a pathName of "one/two/three/MyFile.txt" potentially creates 3 new folder assets, one called "one", the next called "one/two" and the last one called "one/two/three" plus a file asset called "one/two/three/MyFile.txt".

Parameters:

serverName - name of calling server

userId - calling user (assumed to be the owner)

requestBody - properties for the asset

Returns:

list of GUIDs from the top level to the root of the pathname or InvalidParameterException full path or userId is null PropertyServerException problem accessing property server UserNotAuthorizedException security access problem

                                                    NewDataFolderRequestBody requestBody)

Creates a new folder asset that is identified as a data asset. This means the files and sub-folders within it collectively make up the contents of the data asset. As with other types of file-based asset, links are made to the folder structure implied in the path name. If the folder structure is not catalogued already, this is created automatically using the createFolderStructureInCatalog() method. For example, a pathName of "one/two/three/MyDataFolder" potentially creates 3 new folder assets, one called "one", the next called "one/two" and the last one called "one/two/three" plus a DataFolder asset called "one/two/three/MyDataFolder".

Parameters:

serverName - name of calling server

userId - calling user

requestBody - pathname of the file

Returns:

list of GUIDs from the top level to the root of the pathname or InvalidParameterException one of the parameters is null or invalid or PropertyServerException problem accessing property server or UserNotAuthorizedException security access problem.
