orbean forms bulder + custom persistance api: Why does it call /crud/.../data/data.xml?
- by yankee
I am currently implementing my own persistence layer for orbeon forms. As far as I have understood the virtual hierachy of data, creating a form with form builder in the application "myapp" with the name "myform" should cause the form builder to call
/crud/myapp/myform/form/form.xhtml, passing the newly created form as HTTP-PUT data. Thus I created a spring method annotated with:
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.PUT, value = "/crud/{applicationName}/{formName}/form/form.xhtml")
public void saveForm(@PathVariable String formName, @RequestBody String putData)
I expected this method to be called with my form. But this method does not get called. Instead the method
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.PUT, value = "/crud/{applicationName}/{formName}/data/{uuid}/data.xml")
public void saveInstance(@PathVariable String uuid, @RequestBody String putData)
gets called. Put data contains the full xhtml form. Why is this happening? I thought that the second URL would only be called for saving an instance, more specifically the <xforms:instance id="fr-form-instance"> part of a form, once I fill in values for a form.
