Overview

Item providers are a means for accessing items from data sources. Developed for the Magnolia 6 UI, item providers are intended to cover one or more of the following two generic use cases:

  • jcrNodeFromLocationProvider - Resolves node content from the current location. This provider extends the JcrNodeProviderDefinition.
  • delegateToSubNodeProvider jcrGetCurrentNode -  Returns the parent node. It extends the JcrNodeProviderDefinition
  • fetchJcrSubNodeProvider jcrGetChildNode -  Resolves child JCR node from the parent. It extends the JcrNodeProviderDefinition and is suitable for the sub forms only, since it relies on the parent.
  • jsonProvider - Replaces the  {id} path parameter with the one passed in the location and then fetches the result using a configured REST call. This provider type extends the ItemProviderDefinition.
