Grooper Repository (Concept): Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 14:45, 21 November 2024

A Grooper Repository is the environment used to create, configure and execute objects in Grooper. It provides the framework to "do work" in Grooper. Fundamentally, a Grooper Repository is a connection to a database and file store location, which store the node configurations and their associated file content. The Grooper application interacts with the Grooper Repository to automate tasks and provide the Grooper user interface.

This environment consists of:

a database connection and
a file store location.

The database stores Grooper nodes and their property settings (such as a Content Model or a Data Type or any other Grooper object). The file store location houses content associated with these nodes (such as the image file for a Batch Page object).
