RESTApp resources
Static resources are stored in the /resource folder.
AppResource
The AppResource utility is used to access resources within a RESTApp. RESTApp resources are ONLY open to its enclosing RESTApp, i.e. its content cannot be extracted or downloaded elsewhere.
Resources can be accessed in three different ways, where pathToResource is the path to the file in the resource folder.
appResource.getContent(pathToResource)
Returns the resource as a UTF-8 based string.
appResource.getNode(pathToResource)
Returns the resource as a JCR Node (sv:image or sv:file).
appResource.getInputStream(pathToResource)
Returns the resource as a java.io.BufferedInputStream.
