Re: Antw.: [Jackalope] are there phpcr utils to create (repository) user and change password

[David Buchmann]

hi,

i never looked into it, seems you are right :-O
i was not aware of that...

i think the questions how jackrabbit does things would best be asked on
the jackrabbit mailinglist.
regarding commands, dan leech added a phpcr:node:touch command recently
that can create / modify nodes from the command line. having a command
for the users stored in phpcr that allows to manage users and groups
would be cool too.

are you using just phpcr or phpcr in a symfony project? if the later,
note that with the phcpr-odm we so far did not do individual connections
- though that could certainly be interesting. i will do a PR soon to
make FOSUserBundle support phpcr. we should optionally allow to make
those users repository logins at the same time. if you want to
investigate what the format and options the DefaultLoginModule nodes
have, that would be awesome.

cheers,david
