cq_jcr copy action

[mariozet]

It would be nice to have copy action in cq_jcr resource in order to make simple changes which not need groovy scripts.

In my example I had to copy node with its children to new location and overwrite destination nodes with new one.
However, copy action should be possible only for one particular node.

Use full sling API reference:
http://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/manipulating-content-the-slingpostservlet-servlets-post.html#copying-content

Additionally I've wrote small module in my cookbook which can be useful:

module JcrHelper
  include Cq::HttpHelper

  def copy_node(instance, path, user, pass, src, dst, force)
    payload = {
        ':operation' => 'copy',
        ':applyTo' => "#{src}",
        ':dest' => "#{dst}",
        ':replace' => "#{force}"
      }

    http_resp = http_multipart_post(
      instance,
      path,
      user,
      pass,
      payload
    )

    validate_resp(http_resp, path)
  end

  def validate_resp(http_resp, path)
    Chef::Application.fatal!(
      "Something went wrong during operation on #{path}\n"\
      "HTTP response code: #{http_resp.code}\n"\
      "HTTP response body: #{http_resp.body}\n"\
      'Please check error.log file to get more info.'
    ) unless http_resp.code.start_with?('20')
  end

end
