List of Available Storages
==========================
JIO save his job queue in a workspace which is localStorage by default.
Provided storage descirption are also stored, and it can be dangerous if we
store passwords.
The best way to create a storage description is to use the (often) provided
tool given by the storage library. The returned description is secured to avoid
clear readable password. (enciphered password for instance)
When building storage trees, there is no limit on the number of storages you
can use. The only thing you have to be aware of is compatability of simple and
revision based storages.
Connectors
----------
LocalStorage
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Three methods are provided:
* :js:`createDescription(username, [application_name], [mode="localStorage"])`
* :js:`createLocalDescription(username, [application_name])`
* :js:`createMemoryDescription(username, [application_name])`
All parameters are strings.
Examples:
.. code-block:: javascript
// to work on browser localStorage
var jio = jIO.createJIO(local_storage.createDescription("me"));
// to work on browser memory
var jio = jIO.createJIO(local_storage.createMemoryDescription("me"));
DavStorage
^^^^^^^^^^
The tool dav_storage.createDescription generates a dav storage description for
*no*, *basic* or *digest* authentication (*digest* is not implemented yet).
.. code-block:: javascript
dav_storage.createDescription(url, auth_type, [realm], [username], [password]);
All parameters are strings.
Only ``url`` and ``auth_type`` are required. If ``auth_type`` is equal to "none",
then ``realm``, ``username`` and ``password`` are useless. ``username`` and ``password`` become
required if ``auth_type`` is equal to "basic". And ``realm`` also becomes required if
``auth_type`` is equal to "digest".
digest **is not implemented yet**
**Be careful**: The generated description never contains readable password, but
for basic authentication, the password will just be base64 encoded.

Handlers
--------
IndexStorage
^^^^^^^^^^^^
This handler indexes documents metadata into a database (which is a simple
document) to increase the speed of allDocs requests. However, it is not able to
manage the ``include_docs`` option.
The sub storages have to manage ``query`` and ``include_docs`` options.
Here is the description:
.. code-block:: javascript
{
"type": "index",
"indices": [{
"id": "index_title_subject.json", // doc id where to store indices
"index": ["title", "subject"], // metadata to index
"attachment": "db.json", // default "body"
"metadata": { // additional metadata to add to database, default undefined
"type": "Dataset",
"format": "application/json",
"title": "My index database",
"creator": "Me"
},
"sub_storage": <sub storage where to store index>
// default equal to parent sub_storage field
}, {
"id": "index_year.json",
"index": "year"
...
}],
"sub_storage": <sub storage description>
}
GIDStorage

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Comming soon
Revision Based Handlers
-----------------------
A revision based handler is a storage which is able to do some document
versionning using simple storages listed above.
On JIO command parameter, ``_id`` is still used to identify a document, but
another id ``_rev`` must be defined to use a specific revision of this document.
On command responses, you will find another field ``rev`` which will represent the
new revision produced by your action. All the document history is kept unless
you decide to delete older revisions.
Another fields ``conflicts``, ``revisions`` and ``revs_info`` can be returned if the
options **conflicts: true**, **revs: true** and **revs_info: true** are set.

JIO Complex Queries
===================
What are Complex Queries?
-------------------------
In jIO, a complex query can tell a storage server to select, filter, sort, or
limit a document list before sending it back. If the server is not able to do
so, the complex query tool can act on the retreived list by itself. Only the
allDocs method can use complex queries.
A query can either be a string (using a specific language useful for writing
queries), or it can be a tree of objects (useful to browse queries). To handle
complex queries, jIO uses a parsed grammar file which is complied using `JSCC <http://jscc.phorward-software.com/>`_.
Why use Complex Queries?
------------------------
Complex queries can be used similar to database queries. So they are useful to:
* search a specific document
* sort a list of documents in a certain order
* avoid retreiving a list of ten thousand documents
* limit the list to show only xy documents by page
For some storages (like localStorage), complex queries can be a powerful tool
to query accessible documents. When querying documents on a distant storage,
some server-side logic should be run to avoid having to request large amount of
documents to run a query on the client. If distant storages are static, an
alternative would be to use an indexStorage with appropriate indices as complex
queries will always try to run the query on the index before querying documents
itself.
How to use Complex Queries with jIO?
------------------------------------
Complex queries can be triggered by including the option named query in the allDocs method call. An example would be:
.. code-block:: javascript
var options = {};
// search text query
options['query'] = '(creator:"John Doe") AND (format:"pdf")';
// OR query tree
options['query'] = {
type:'complex',
operator:'AND',
query_list: [{
"type": "simple",
"key": "creator",
"value": "John Doe"
}, {
"type": "simple",
"key": "format",
"value": "pdf"
}]
};
// FULL example using filtering criteria
options = {
query: '(creator:"% Doe") AND (format:"pdf")',
limit: [0, 100],
sort_on: [['last_modified', 'descending'], ['creation_date', 'descending']],
select_list: ['title'],
wildcard_character: '%'
};
// execution
jio_instance.allDocs(options, callback);
How to use Complex Queries outside jIO?
---------------------------------------
Complex Queries provides an API - which namespace is complex_queries. Please
also refer to the `Complex Queries sample page <http://git.erp5.org/gitweb/jio.git/blob/HEAD:/examples/complex_example.html?js=1>`_
on how to use these methods in- and outside jIO. The module provides:
.. code-block:: javascript
{
parseStringToObject: [Function: parseStringToObject],
stringEscapeRegexpCharacters: [Function: stringEscapeRegexpCharacters],
select: [Function: select],
sortOn: [Function: sortOn],
limit: [Function: limit],
convertStringToRegExp: [Function: convertStringToRegExp],
QueryFactory: { [Function: QueryFactory] create: [Function] },
Query: [Function: Query],
SimpleQuery: { [Function: SimpleQuery] super_: [Function: Query] },
ComplexQuery: { [Function: ComplexQuery] super_: [Function: Query] }
}
(Reference API coming soon.)
Basic example:
.. code-block:: javascript
// object list (generated from documents in storage or index)
var object_list = [
{"title": "Document number 1", "creator": "John Doe"},
{"title": "Document number 2", "creator": "James Bond"}
];
// the query to run
var query = 'title: "Document number 1"';
// running the query
var result = complex_queries.QueryFactory.create(query).exec(object_list);
// console.log(result);
// [ { "title": "Document number 1", "creator": "John Doe"} ]
Other example:
.. code-block:: javascript
var result = complex_queries.QueryFactory.create(query).exec(
object_list,
{
"select": ['title', 'year'],
"limit": [20, 20], // from 20th to 40th document
"sort_on": [['title', 'ascending'], ['year', 'descending']],
"other_keys_and_values": "are_ignored"
}
);
// this case is equal to:
var result = complex_queries.QueryFactory.create(query).exec(object_list);
complex_queries.sortOn([['title', 'ascending'], ['year', 'descending']], result);
complex_queries.limit([20, 20], result);
complex_queries.select(['title', 'year'], result);
Complex Queries in storage connectors
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The query exec method must only be used if the server is not able to pre-select
documents. As mentioned before, you could use an indexStorage to maintain
indices with key information on all documents in a storage. This index file
will then be used to run queries on if all fields, required in the query answer
are available in the index.
Matching properties
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Complex Queries select items which exactly match with the value given in the
query. You can use wildcards ('%' is the default wildcard character), and you
can change the wildcard character in the query options object. If you don't
want to use a wildcard, just set the wildcard character to an empty string.
.. code-block:: javascript
var query = {
"query": 'creator:"* Doe"',
"wildcard_character": "*"
};
Should default search types be defined in jIO or in user interface components?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Default search types should be defined in the application's user interface
components because criteria like filters will be changed frequently by the
component (change ``limit: [0, 10]`` to ``limit: [10, 10]`` or ``sort_on: [['title',
'ascending']]`` to ``sort_on: [['creator', 'ascending']]``) and each component must
have their own default properties to keep their own behavior.
Convert Complex Queries into another type
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Example, convert Query object into human readable string:
.. code-block:: javascript
var query = complex_queries.QueryFactory.create('year: < 2000 OR title: "*a"'),
option = {
"wildcard_character": "*",
"limit": [0, 10]
},
human_read = {
"<": "is lower than ",
"<=": "is lower or equal than ",
">": "is greater than ",
">=": "is greater or equal than ",
"=": "matches ",
"!=": "doesn't match "
};
query.onParseStart = function (object, option) {
object.start = "The wildcard character is '" +
(option.wildcard_character || "%") +
"' and we need only the " + option.limit[1] + " elements from the numero " +
option.limit[0] + ". ";
};
query.onParseSimpleQuery = function (object, option) {
object.parsed = object.parsed.key + " " + human_read[object.parsed.operator] +
object.parsed.value;
};
query.onParseComplexQuery = function (object, option) {
object.parsed = "I want all document where " +
object.parsed.query_list.join(" " + object.parsed.operator.toLowerCase() +
" ") + ". ";
};
query.onParseEnd = function (object, option) {
object.parsed = object.start + object.parsed + "Thank you!";
};
console.log(query.parse(option));
// logged: "The wildcard character is '*' and we need only the 10 elements
// from the numero 0. I want all document where year is lower than 2000 or title
// matches *a. Thank you!"

For developers
==============
Quick start
-----------
To get started with jIO, clone one of the repositories link in `Download & Fork <https://www.j-io.org/download-and-fork>`_ tab.
To build your library you have to:
* Install `NodeJS <http://nodejs.org/>`_ (including NPM)
* Install Grunt command line with npm. ``# npm -g install grunt-cli``
* Install dev dependencies. ``$ npm install``
* Compile JS/CC parser. ``$ make`` (until we found how to compile it with grunt)
* And run build. ``$ grunt``
The repository also includes the built ready-to-use files, so in case you do
not want to build jIO yourself, just use *jio.js* as well as *complex_queries.js*
plus the storages and dependencies you need and you will be good to go.
Naming Conventions
------------------
All the code follows this `Javascript Naming Conventions <http://www.j-io.org/Javascript-Naming_Conventions>`_.
How to design your own jIO Storage Library
------------------------------------------
Create a constructor:
.. code-block:: javascript
function MyStorage(storage_description) {
this._value = storage_description.value;
if (typeof this._value !== 'string') {
throw new TypeError("'value' description property is not a string");
}
}
Create 10 methods: ``post``, ``put``, ``putAttachment``, ``get``, ``getAttachment``,
``remove``, ``removeAttachment``, ``allDocs``, ``check`` and ``repair``.
.. code-block:: javascript
MyStorage.prototype.post = function (command, metadata, option) {
var document_id = metadata._id;
// [...]
};
MyStorage.prototype.get = function (command, param, option) {
var document_id = param._id;
// [...]
};
MyStorage.prototype.putAttachment = function (command, param, option) {
var document_id = param._id;
var attachment_id = param._attachment;
var attachment_data = param._blob;
// [...]
};
// [...]
(To help you to design your methods, some tools are provided by jIO.util.)
The first parameter command provides some methods to act on the JIO job:
* ``success``, to tell JIO that the job is successfully terminated
``command.success(status[Text], [{custom key to add to the response}]);``
* ``resolve``, is equal to success
* ``error``, to tell JIO that the job cannot be done
``command.error(status[Text], [reason], [message], [{custom key to add to the response}])``
* ``retry``, to tell JIO that the job cannot be done now, but can be retried later. (same API than error)
* ``reject``, to tell JIO that the job cannot be done, let JIO to decide to retry or not. (same API than error)
The second parameter ``metadata`` or ``param`` is the first parameter given by the JIO user.
The third parameter ``option`` is the option parameter given by the JIO user.
Detail of what should return a method:
* post --> success("created", {"id": new_generated_id})
* put, remove, putAttachment or removeAttachment --> success(204)
* get --> success("ok", {"data": document_metadata})
* getAttachment -->
success("ok", {"data": binary_string, "content_type": content_type})
// or
success("ok", {"data": new Blob([data], {"type": content_type})})
* allDocs --> success("ok", {"data": row_object})
* check -->
.. code-block:: javascript
// if metadata provides "_id" -> check document state
// if metadata doesn't promides "_id" -> check storage state
success("no_content")
// or
error("conflict", "corrupted", "incoherent document or storage")
repair -->
.. code-block:: javascript
// if metadata provides "_id" -> repair document state
// if metadata doesn't promides "_id" -> repair storage state
success("no_content")
// or
error("conflict", "corrupted", "impossible to repair document or storage")
// DON'T DESIGN STORAGES IF THEIR IS NO WAY TO REPAIR INCOHERENT STATES
After setting up all methods, your storage must be added to jIO. This is done
using the ``jIO.addStorage()`` method, which requires two parameters: the storage
type (string) add a constructor (function). It is called like this:
.. code-block:: javascript
// add custom storage to jIO
jIO.addStorage('mystoragetype', MyStorage);
Please refer to *localstorage.js* implementation for a good example on how to
setup a storage and what methods are required. Also keep in mind, that jIO is a
job-based library, so whenever you trigger a method, a job is created, which
after being processed returns a response.
Job rules
---------
jIO job manager will follow several rules set at the creation of a new jIO
instance. When you try to call a method, jIO will create a job and will make
sure the job is really necessary and will be executed. Thanks to these job
rules, jIO knows what to do with the new job before adding it to the queue. You
can add your own rules like this:
These are the jIO **default rules**:
.. code-block:: javascript
var jio_instance = jIO.createJIO(storage_description, {
"job_rules": [{
"code_name": "readers update",
"conditions": [
"sameStorageDescription",
"areReaders",
"sameMethod",
"sameParameters",
"sameOptions"
],
"action": "update"
}, {
"code_name": "metadata writers update",
"conditions": [
"sameStorageDescription",
"areWriters",
"useMetadataOnly",
"sameMethod",
"haveDocumentIds",
"sameParameters"
],
"action": "update"
}, {
"code_name": "writers wait",
"conditions": [
"sameStorageDescription",
"areWriters",
"haveDocumentIds",
"sameDocumentId"
],
"action": "wait"
}]
});
The following actions can be used:
* ``ok`` - accept the job
* ``wait`` - wait until the end of the selected job
* ``update`` - bind the selected job to this one
* ``deny`` - reject the job
The following condition function can be used:
* ``sameStorageDescription`` - check if the storage descriptions are different.
* ``areWriters`` - check if the commands are ``post``, ``put``, ``putAttachment``, ``remove``, ``removeAttachment``, or ``repair``.
* ``areReaders`` - check if the commands are ``get``, ``getAttachment``, ``allDocs`` or ``check``.
* ``useMetadataOnly`` - check if the commands are ``post``, ``put``, ``get``, ``remove`` or ``allDocs``.
* ``sameMethod`` - check if the commands are equal.
* ``sameDocumentId`` - check if the document ids are equal.
* ``sameParameters`` - check if the metadata or param are equal in deep.
* ``sameOptions`` - check if the command options are equal.
* ``haveDocumentIds`` - test if the two commands contain document ids
Create Job Condition
--------------------
You can create 2 types of function: job condition, and job comparison.
.. code-block:: javascript
// Job Condition
// Check if the job is a get command
jIO.addJobRuleCondition("isGetMethod", function (job) {
return job.method === 'get';
});
// Job Comparison
// Check if the jobs have the same 'title' property only if they are strings
jIO.addJobRuleCondition("sameTitleIfString", function (job, selected_job) {
if (typeof job.kwargs.title === 'string' &&
typeof selected_job.kwargs.title === 'string') {
return job.kwargs.title === selected_job.kwargs.title;
}
return false;
});
Add job rules
-------------
You just have to define job rules in the jIO options:
.. code-block:: javascript
// Do not accept to post or put a document which title is equal to another
// already running post or put document title
var jio_instance = jIO.createJIO(storage_description, {
"job_rules": [{
"code_name": "avoid similar title",
"conditions": [
"sameStorageDescription",
"areWriters",
"sameTitleIfString"
],
"action": "deny",
"before": "writers update" // optional
// "after": also exists
}]
});
Clear/Replace default job rules
-------------------------------
If a job which code_name is equal to readers update, then add this rule will replace it:
.. code-block:: javascript
var jio_instance = jIO.createJIO(storage_description, {
"job_rules": [{
"code_name": "readers update",
"conditions": [
"sameStorageDescription",
"areReaders",
"sameMethod",
"haveDocumentIds"
"sameParameters"
// sameOptions is removed
],
"action": "update"
}]
});
Or you can just clear all rules before adding other ones:
.. code-block:: javascript
var jio_instance = jIO.createJIO(storage_description, {
"clear_job_rules": true,
"job_rules": [{
// ...
}]
});

Introduction
============
What is jIO?
------------
JIO is a JavaScript library that allows to manage JSON documents on local or
remote storages in asynchronous fashion. jIO is an abstracted API mapped after
CouchDB, that offers connectors to multiple storages, special handlers to
enhance functionality (replication, revisions, indexing) and a query module to
retrieve documents and specific information across storage trees.
How does it work?
-----------------
JIO is separated into three parts - jIO core and storage library(ies). The core
is using storage libraries (connectors) to interact with the accociated remote
storage servers. Some queries can be used on top of the jIO allDocs method to
query documents based on defined criteria.
JIO uses a job management system, so every method called adds a job into a
queue. The queue is copied in the browsers local storage (by default), so it
can be restored in case of a browser crash. Jobs are being invoked
asynchronously with ongoing jobs not being able to re-trigger to prevent
conflicts.
Getting started
---------------
This walkthrough is designed to get you started using a basic jIO instance.
#. Download jIO core, the storages you want to use as well as the
complex-queries scripts as well as the dependencies required for the storages
you intend to use. `[Download & Fork] <https://www.j-io.org/download-and-fork>`_
#. Add the scripts to your HTML page in the following order:
.. code-block:: html
<!-- jio core + dependency -->
<script src="sha256.amd.js"></script>
<script src="rsvp-custom.js"></script>
<script src="jio.js"></script>
<!-- storages + dependencies -->
<script src="complex_queries.js"></script>
<script src="localstorage.js"></script>
<script src="davstorage.js"></script>
<script ...>
With require js, the main.js will be like this:
.. code-block:: javascript
:linenos:
require.config({
"paths": {
// jio core + dependency
// the AMD compatible version of sha256.js -> see Download and Fork
"sha256": "sha256.amd",
"rsvp": "rsvp-custom",
"jio": "jio",
// storages + dependencies
"complex_queries": "complex_queries",
"localstorage": "localstorage",
"davstorage": "davstorage"
}
});
#. jIO connects to a number of storages and allows to add handlers (or
functions) to specifc storages.
You can use both handlers and available storages to build a storage
tree across which all documents will be maintained and managed by jIO.
See :ref:`List of Available Storages <list-of-available-storages>`.
.. code-block:: javascript
// create your jio instance
var my_jio = jIO.createJIO(storage_description);
#. The jIO API provides six main methods to manage documents across the storage(s) specified in your jIO storage tree.

How to manage documents?
========================
JIO is mapped after the CouchDB API and extends it to provide unified, scalable
and high performance access via Javascript to a wide variety of different
storage backends.
If you are unfamiliar with Apache `CouchDB <http://couchdb.apache.org/>`_:
it is a scalable, fault-tolerant, and schema-free document-oriented database.
It's used in large and small organizations for a variety of applications where
traditional SQL databases aren't the best solution for the problem at hand.
CouchDB provides a RESTful HTTP/JSON API accessible from many programming
libraries and tools (like 'curl' or 'Pouchdb') and has it's own conflict management system.
What is a document?
-------------------
A document an association with metadata and attachment(s). The metadata are the
properties of the document and the attachments are the binaries of the content
of the document.
In jIO, metadata are just a dictionnary with keys and values (JSON object), and
attachments are just simple strings.
.. code-block:: javascript
:linenos:
{
// document metadata
"_id" : "Identifier",
"title" : "A Title!",
"creator": "Mr.Author"
}
You can also retrieve document attachment metadata in this object.
.. code-block:: javascript
:linenos:
{
// document metadata
"_id" : "Identifier",
"title" : "A Title!",
"creator": "Mr.Author",
"_attachments": {
// attachment metadata
"body.html": {
"length": 12893,
"digest": "sha256-XXXX...",
"content_type": "text/html"
}
}
}
:ref:`Here <metadata-head>` is a draft about metadata to use with jIO.
Basic Methods
-------------
Below you can find sample calls of the main jIO methods. All examples are using
revisions (as in revision storage or replicate revision storage), so you can
see, how method calls should be made with either of these storages.
.. code-block:: javascript
:linenos:
// Create a new jIO instance
var jio_instance = jIO.newJio(storage tree description);
// create and store new document
jio_instance.post({"title": "some title"}).
then(function (response) {
// console.log(response):
});
// create or update an existing document
jio_instance.put({"_id": "my_document", "title": "New Title"}).
then(function (response) {
// console.log(response):
});
// add an attachement to a document
jio_instance.putAttachment({"_id": "my_document", "_attachment": "its_attachment",
"_data": "abc", "_mimetype": "text/plain"}).
then(function (response) {
// console.log(response):
});
// read a document
jio_instance.get({"_id": "my_document"}).
then(function (response) {
// console.log(response);
});
// read an attachement
jio_instance.getAttachment({"_id": "my_document", "_attachment": "its_attachment"}).
then(function (response) {
// console.log(response);
});
// delete a document and its attachment(s)
jio_instance.remove({"_id": "my_document"}).
then(function (response) {
// console.log(response):
});
// delete an attachement
jio_instance.removeAttachment({"_id": "my_document", "_attachment": "its_attachment"}).
then(function (response) {
// console.log(response):
});
// get all documents
jio_instance.allDocs().then(function (response) {
// console.log(response):
});
Promises
--------
Each JIO methods return a Promise object, which allows us to get responses into
callback parameters and to chain callbacks with other returned values.
JIO uses a custom version of `RSVP.js <https://github.com/tildeio/rsvp.js>`_, adding canceler and progression features.
You can read more about promises:
* `github RSVP.js <https://github.com/tildeio/rsvp.js#rsvpjs-->`_
* `Promises/A+ <http://promisesaplus.com/>`_
* `CommonJS Promises <http://wiki.commonjs.org/wiki/Promises>`_
Method Options and Callback Responses
-------------------------------------
To retrieve JIO responses, you have to give callbacks like this:
.. code-block:: javascript
jio_instance.post(metadata, [options]).
then([responseCallback], [errorCallback], [progressionCallback]);
* On command success, responseCallback will be called with the JIO response as first parameter.
* On command error, errorCallback will be called with the JIO error as first parameter.
* On command notification, progressionCallback will be called with the storage notification.
Here is a list of responses returned by JIO according to methods and options:
================== =============================== ======================================
Option Available for Response (Callback first parameter)
================== =============================== ======================================
No options post, put, remove .. code-block:: javascript
{
"result": "success",
"method": "post",
// or put or remove
"id": "my_doc_id",
"status": 204,
"statusText": "No Content"
}
No options putAttachment, removeAttachment .. code-block:: javascript
{
"result": "success",
"method": "putAttachment",
// or removeAttachment
"id": "my_doc_id",
"attachment": "my_attachment_id",
"status": 204,

"key": "mydoc", // optional
"value": {},
"doc": {
// Here, "mydoc" metadata
}
}]
}
}
================== =============================== ======================================
In case of error, the errorCallback first parameter will look like:
.. code-block:: javascript
{
"result": "error",
"method": "get",
"status": 404,
"statusText": "Not Found",
"error": "not_found",
"reason": "document missing",
"message": "Unable to get the requseted document"
}
Example: How to store a video on localStorage
---------------------------------------------
The following shows how to create a new jIO in localStorage and then post a document with two attachments.
.. code-block:: javascript
// create a new jIO
var jio_instance = jIO.newJio({
"type": "local",
"username": "usr",
"application_name":"app"
});
// post the document "metadata"
jio_instance.post({
"title" : "My Video",
"type" : "MovingImage",
"format" : "video/ogg",
"description" : "Images Compilation"
}, function (err, response) {
var id;
if (err) {
return alert('Error posting the document meta');
}
id = response.id;
// post a thumbnail attachment
jio_instance.putAttachment({
"_id": id,
"_attachment": "thumbnail",
"_data": my_image,
"_mimetype": "image/jpeg"
}, function (err, response) {
if (err) {
return alert('Error attaching thumbnail');
}
// post video attachment
jio_instance.putAttachment({
"_id": id,
"_attachment": "video",
"_data": my_video,
"_mimetype":"video/ogg"
}, function (err, response) {
if (err) {
return alert('Error attaching the video');
}
alert('Video Stored');
});
});
});

Metadata
========
What is metadata?
-----------------
The word "metadata" means "data about data". Metadata articulates a context for
objects of interest -- "resources" such as MP3 files, library books, or
satellite images -- in the form of "resource descriptions". As a tradition,
resource description dates back to the earliest archives and library catalogs.
The modern "metadata" field that gave rise to Dublin Core and other recent
standards emerged with the Web revolution of the mid-1990s.
http://dublincore.org/metadata-basics/
Why use metadata?
-----------------
Uploading a document to several servers can be very tricky, because the
document has to be saved in a place where it can be easily found with basic
searches in all storages (For instance: ERP5, XWiki and Mioga2 have their own
way to save documents and to get them). So we must use metadata for
*interoperability reasons*. Interoperability is the ability of diverse systems
and organizations to work together.
How to format metadata with JIO
-------------------------------
See below XML and its JSON equivalent:
+--------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+
| XML | JSON |
+============================================+=======================================+
| .. code-block:: xml | .. code-block:: javascript |
| | |
| <dc:title>My Title</dc:title> | {"title":"My Title"} |
+--------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+
| .. code-block:: xml | .. code-block:: javascript |
| | |
| <dc:contributor>Me</dc:contributor> | {"contributor":["Me", "And You"]} |
| <dc:contributor>And You</dc:contributor> | |
+--------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+
| .. code-block:: xml | .. code-block:: javascript |
| | |
| <dc:identifier scheme="DCTERMS.URI"> | {"identifier": [ |
| http://my/resource | { |
| </dc:identifier> | "scheme": "DCTERMS.URI", |
| <dc:identifier> | "content": "http://my/resource" |
| Xaoe41PAPNIWz | }, |
| </dc:identifier> | "Xaoe41PAPNIWz"]} |
+--------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+
List of metadata to use
-----------------------
Identification
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* **"_id"**, a specific JIO metadata which helps the storage to find a documents
(can be a real path name, a dc:identifier, a uuid, ...). **String Only**
* **"identifer"**, :js:`{"identifier": "http://domain/jio_home_page"}, {"identifier": "urn:ISBN:978-1-2345-6789-X"},
{"identifier": [{"scheme": "DCTERMS.URI", "content": "http://domain/jio_home_page"}]}`
an unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context. Recommended
best practice is to identify the resource by means of a string or number
conforming to a formal identification system. Examples of formal identification
systems include the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) (including the Uniform
Resource Locator (URL), the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) and the
International Standard Book Number (ISBN).
* **"format"**, :js:`{"format": ["text/html", "52 kB"]}, {"format": ["image/jpeg", "100 x 100 pixels", "13.2 KiB"]}`
the physical or digital manifestation of the resource. Typically, Format may
include the media-type or dimensions of the resource. Examples of dimensions
include size and duration. Format may be used to determine the software,
hardware or other equipment needed to display or operate the resource.
* **"date"**, :js:`{"date": "2011-12-13T14:15:16Z"}, {"date": {"scheme": "DCTERMS.W3CDTF", "content": "2011-12-13"}}`
a date associated with an event in the life cycle of the resource. Typically,
Date will be associated with the creation or availability of the resource.
Recommended best practice for encoding the date value is defined in a profile
of ISO 8601 `Date and Time Formats, W3C Note <http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime>`_
and follows the YYYY-MM-DD format.
* **"type"**, :js:`{"type": "Text"}, {"type": "Image"}, {"type": "Dataset"}`
the nature or genre of the content of the resource. Type includes terms describing
general categories, functions, genres, or aggregation levels for content.
Recommended best practice is to select a value from a controlled vocabulary.
**The type is not a MIME Type!**
Intellectual property
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* **"creator"**, :js:`{"creator": "Tristan Cavelier"}, {"creator": ["Tristan Cavelier", "Sven Franck"]}`
an entity primarily responsible for making the content of the resource.
Examples of a Creator include a person, an organization, or a service.
Typically the name of the Creator should be used to indicate the entity.
* **"publisher"**, :js:`{"publisher": "Nexedi"}`
the entity responsible for making the resource available. Examples of a
Publisher include a person, an organization, or a service. Typically, the name
of a Publisher should be used to indicate the entity.
* **"contributor"**, :js:`{"contributor": ["Full Name", "Full Name", ...]}`
an entity responsible for making contributions to the content of the
resource. Examples of a Contributor include a person, an organization or a
service. Typically, the name of a Contributor should be used to indicate the
entity.
* **"rights"**, :js:`{"rights": "Access limited to members"}, {"rights": "https://www.j-io.org/documentation/jio-documentation/#copyright-and-license"}`
information about rights held in and over the resource. Typically a Rights
element will contain a rights management statement for the resource, or
reference a service providing such information. Rights information often
encompasses Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), Copyright, and various Property
Rights. If the rights element is absent, no assumptions can be made about the
status of these and other rights with respect to the resource.
Content
^^^^^^^
* **"title"**, :js:`{"title": "JIO Home Page"}`
the name given to the resource. Typically, a Title will be a name by which the resource is formally known.
* **"subject"**, :js:`{"subject": "JIO"}, {"subject": ["JIO", "basics"]}`
the topic of the content of the resource. Typically, a Subject will be
expressed as keywords or key phrases or classification codes that describe the
topic of the resource. Recommended best practice is to select a value from a
controlled vocabulary or formal classification scheme.
* **"description"**, :js:`{"description": "Simple guide to show the basics of JIO"}, {"description": {"lang": "fr", "content": "Ma description"}}`
an account of the content of the resource. Description may include but is not
limited to: an abstract, table of contents, reference to a graphical
representation of content or a free-text account of the content.
* **"language"**, :js:`{"language": "en"}`
a language of the intellectual content of the resource. Recommended best
practice for the values of the Language element is defined by `RFC 3066 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3066.txt>`_
which, in conjunction with `ISO 639 <http://www.oasis-open.org/cover/iso639a.html>`_, defines two- and
three-letter primary language tags with optional subtags. Examples include "en"
or "eng" for English, "akk" for Akkadian, and "en-GB" for English used in the
United Kingdom.
* **"source"**, :js:`{"source": ["Image taken from a drawing by Mr. Artist", "<phone number>"]}`,
a Reference to a resource from which the present resource is derived. The
present resource may be derived from the Source resource in whole or part.
Recommended best practice is to reference the resource by means of a string or
number conforming to a formal identification system.
* **"relation"**, :js:`{"relation": "Resilience project"}`
a reference to a related resource. Recommended best practice is to reference
the resource by means of a string or number conforming to a formal
identification system.
* **"coverage"**, :js:`{"coverage": "France"}`
the extent or scope of the content of the resource. Coverage will typically
include spatial location (a place name or geographic co-ordinates), temporal
period (a period label, date, or date range) or jurisdiction (such as a named
administrative entity). Recommended best practice is to select a value from a
controlled vocabulary (for example, the `Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names
<http://www.getty.edu/research/tools/vocabulary/tgn/>`_. Where appropriate, named
places or time periods should be used in preference to numeric identifiers such
as sets of co-ordinates or date ranges.
* **"category"**, :js:`{"category": ["parent/26323", "resilience/javascript", "javascript/library/io"]}`
the category the resource is associated with. The categories may look like
navigational facets, they correspond to the properties of the resource which
can be generated with metadata or some other informations (see `faceted search <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faceted_search>`_).
* **"product"**, :js:`{"product": "..."}`
for e-commerce use.
* **custom**, :js:`{custom1: value1, custom2: value2, ...}`

Revision Storages: Conflicts and Resolution
===========================================
Why Conflicts can Occur
-----------------------
Using jIO you can store documents in multiple storage locations. With
increasing number of users working on a document and some storages not being
available or responding too slow, conflicts are more likely to occur. JIO
defines a conflict as multiple versions of a document existing in a storage
tree and a user trying to save on a version that does not match the latest
version of the document.
To keep track of document versions a revision storage must be used. When doing
so, jIO creates a document tree file for every document. This file contains all
existing versions and their status and is modified whenever a version is
added/updated/removed or when storages are being synchronized.
How to solve conflicts
----------------------
Using the document tree, jIO tries to make every version of a document
available on every storage. When multiple versions of a document exist, jIO
will select the **latest**, **left-most** version on the document tree, along with the
conflicting versions (when option **conflicts: true** is set in order for
developers to setup a routine to solve conflicts.
Technically a conflict is solved by deleting alternative versions of a document
("cutting leaves off from the document tree"). When a user decides to keep a
version of a document and manually deletes all conflicting versions, the
storage tree is updated accordingly and the document is available in a single
version on all storages.
Simple Conflict Example
-----------------------
You are keeping a namecard file on your PC updating from your smartphone. Your
smartphone ran out of battery and is offline when you update your namecard on
your PC with your new email adress. Someone else change this email from your PC
and once your smartphone is recharged, you go back online and the previous
update is executed.
#. Setting up the storage tree
.. code-block:: javascript
var jio_instance = jIO.newJio({
// replicate revision storage
"type":"replicaterevision",
"storagelist":[{
"type": "revision",
"sub_storage": {
"type": "dav",
...
}
}, {
"type": "revision",
"sub_storage": {
"type": "local",
...
}
}]
});
#. Create your namecard on your smartphone
.. code-block:: javascript
jio_instance.post({
"_id": "myNameCard",
"email": "me@web.com"
}).then(function (response) {
// response.id -> "myNameCard"
// response.rev -> "1-5782E71F1E4BF698FA3793D9D5A96393"
});
This will create the document on your webDav and local storage
#. Someone else updates your shared namecard on Webdav
.. code-block:: javascript
jio_instance.put({
"email": "my_new_me@web.com",
"_id": "myNameCard"
"_rev": "1-5782E71F1E4BF698FA3793D9D5A96393"
}).then(function (response) {
// response.id -> "myNameCard"
// response.rev -> "2-068E73F5B44FEC987B51354DFC772891"
});
Your smartphone is offline, so you will now have one version (1-578...) on
your smartphone and another version on webDav (2-068...) on your PC.
#. You modify your namecard while being offline
.. code-block:: javascript
jio_instance.get({"_id": "myNameCard"}).then(function (response) {
// response.id -> "myNameCard"
// response.rev -> "1-5782E71F1E4BF698FA3793D9D5A96393"
// response.data.email -> "me@web.com"
return jio_instance.put({
"_id": "myNameCard",
"email": "me_again@web.com"
});
}).then(function (response) {
// response.id -> "myNameCard"
// response.rev -> "2-3753476B70A49EA4D8C9039E7B04254C"
});
#. Later, your smartphone is online and you retrieve your namecard.
.. code-block:: javascript
jio_instance.get({"_id": "myNameCard"}).then(function (response) {
// response.id -> "myNameCard"
// response.rev -> "2-3753476B70A49EA4D8C9039E7B04254C"
// response.data.email -> "me_again@web.com"
});
When multiple versions of a document are available, jIO returns the lastest, left-most version on the document tree (2-375... and labels all other versions as conflicting 2-068...).
#. Retrieve conflicts by setting option
.. code-block:: javascript
jio_instance.get({"_id": "myNameCard"}, {
"conflicts": true
}).then(function (response) {
// response.id -> "myNameCard"
// response.rev -> "2-3753476B70A49EA4D8C9039E7B04254C",
// response.conflicts -> ["2-068E73F5B44FEC987B51354DFC772891"]
});
The conflicting version (*2-068E...*) is displayed, because **{conflicts: true}** was
specified in the GET call. Deleting either version will solve the conflict.
#. Delete conflicting version
.. code-block:: javascript
jio_instance.remove({
"_id": "myNameCard",
"_rev": "2-068E73F5B44FEC987B51354DFC772891"
}).then(function (response) {
// response.id -> "myNameCard"
// response.rev -> "3-28910A4937537B5168E772896B70EC98"
});
When deleting the conflicting version of your namecard, jIO removes this
version from all storages and sets the document tree leaf of this version to
deleted. All storages now contain just a single version of your namecard
(2-3753...). Note, that the on the document tree, removing a revison will
create a new revision with status set to *deleted*.
