sv:temporaryFile

The sole purpose of a sv:temporaryFile is to represent a java.io.File as javax.jcr.Node in order to support file-related operations in the API. Temporary file nodes are very volatile and short-lived.

  • They have no parent, nor any children.
  • A temporary file node can never be looked up by its identifier and it should never be cached.

Files uploaded to Web/RESTApps are exposed as sv:temporaryFile (see req.file and res.sendFile).
