Basic addressing

Portal users can address resources that have been registered with the tagging and rating engine.

Users can address resources, tags, tag spaces, ratings, and rating spaces. They can either address all entities part of these five models or start with an empty set of these models and add single entities by adding additional query parameters. For details refer to the topic about Adding query parameters.

The URL that is to be used for addressing resources...

http://host:port/wps/mycontenthandler?uri=uri

Valid URIs are given in the following sections.

Addressing resources

To address resources, use the following URIs:

rm:all

This returns a feecontaining all resources that are registered with the tagging and rating engine. A resource is registered with the tagging and rating engine when a user tags or rates it at least once. Note that using this operation can be rather expensive, depending on the amount of registered resources. Sample feed:

rm:empty

This returns a feethat represents the empty set of resources. We can add individual resources to this feed by adding additional query parameters.

rm:type_schema:ssp

This returns a feethat represents a single unique resource. Samples:

• For a portal resource: rm:nm:oid:oid_of_a_page . This URI addresses a portal content node.

• For a custom resource: rm:dvd:rambo . This addresses a custom resource of some kind.

Addressing tags

To address tags, use the following URIs:

tm:all

This returns a feecontaining all available tags. Note that using this operation can be rather expensive depending on the amount of registered tags. Sample feed:

tm:empty

This returns a feethat represents the empty set of tags. We can add individual tags to this feed by adding additional query parameters.

tm:name:tag_name

This returns a feecontaining all tags that match the name tagname.

tm:oid:oid_of_a_tag

This returns a feethat represents a single unique tag with the ID oid_of_a_tag.

Addressing tag spaces

Unlike the tag model, the tag space model does not contain information about which user has assigned a certain tag or to which concrete resource a tag has been assigned. A tag space represents only the association between a tag name and its count. Therefore tag spaces are useful to aggregate tag clouds. Use the following URIs:

tm:ts:all

This returns a feecontaining all available tag spaceso that is all available tags and their names and counts. Sample feed:
