Description
The portal should not be limited to PSML pages as resources.
With Randy's integration of Graffito coming any day now, we should be considering supporting any document in our URI space.
Examples are:
htttp://localhost/jetspeed/portal/accounting/2005/Q3/profit-loss.html
htttp://localhost/jetspeed/portal/human-resources/policies/labotomy-policy.pdf
Right now, the portal requires that pages are addressed as a portal page.
Documents, such as HTML or PDF, cannot be addressed in the portal URI space.
Currently the portal addressable space is limited to folders and PSML pages
(in the case of the portlet pipeline, we can address portlets)
This feature will enable a new resource type: a document, such as an HTML document.
The PSML file associated with the document will be determined by a new profiling rule that looks at the path and
document name. This profiling rule will hold a mapping from the profiling criteria to a PSML page.
Thus we can make course grain associations like:
*.html ----> map to a PSML file ----> /general/profiled/html.psml
*.pdf -----> map to -----> /general/profiled/pdf.psml
or more fine grained profiling criteria with regex:
/accounting//.html ----> /_role/accounting/accounting-page1.psml
of course all other profiling rules can be applied to further identify the documents page
