The store type defaultTenantFileStore implemented by the class de.acosix.alfresco.simplecontentstores.repo.store.file.TenantRoutingFileContentStore is for the most part identical to the default Alfresco class org.alfresco.repo.tenant.TenantRoutingFileContentStore. The Alfresco class TenantRoutingFileContentStore is actually used as the default store in the Alfresco unencrypted ContentStore subsystem variant, even in systems without multi-tenancy enabled (the majority of installations). It allows for content of the default system tenant to be stored in a configured directory, while other tenants use a directory configured at the time of tenant creation. The primary difference to the default Alfresco store is that the defaultTenantFileStore supports all the configuration properties of the standardFileStore store type and applies these to each store instance created for the various tenants.
This type of store can only be used as a terminal store, and typically acts as the backing store in routing or transforming store setups. It should generally be avoided to have two instances of this store type point to the same file system directory, especially if both instances use distinct content URL protocols - which is the recommendation - since this can lead to the Alfresco content URL orphan handling accidentally deleting content that is still referenced by foreign content URLs.
This store can be selected by using the store type defaultTenantFileStore.
name | type | description | default | optional |
---|---|---|---|---|
protocol | value | the protocol to be used on content URLs | store |
yes |
rootAbsolutePath | value | the path to the directory in which to store content | no | |
readOnly | value | true /false to mark the store as ready-only |
false |
yes |
allowRandomAccess | value | true /false to mark the store as capable of providing random access to content files |
false |
yes |
deleteEmptyDirs | value | true /false to allow store to delete empty directories after deleting content files |
false |
yes |
fixedLimit | value | the fixed file size limit for content items stored in this store | yes | |
contentLimitProvider | ref | the limit provider for content items stored in this store | yes | |
fileContentUrlProvider | ref | the provider for generation of content URLs of new items in this store (Alfresco 5.2+ only) | yes |
Note that the configuration for fixedLimit and contentLimitProvider affect the same functionality of the store: limiting the size of files that can be stored. There is no inherent precedence between the two parameters and their initialisation order is left undefined, leaving it to the internal ordering of the Spring framework. It is therefore required to always only set one of these two properties for a reproducible behaviour.
