Content Server

Serves content tree structures very quickly.

Concept

A Server written in GoLang to mix and resolve content from different content sources, e.g. CMS, Blog, Shop and many other more. The server provides a simple to use API for non blocking content repository updates, to resolve site content by an URI or to get deep-linking multilingual URIs for a given contentID.

It's up to you how you use it and which data you want to export to the server. Our intention was to write a fast and cache hazzle-free content server to mix different content sources.

Overview

Export Data

All you have to do is to provide a tree of content nodes as a JSON encoded RepoNode.

Attribute	Type	Usage
Id	string	unique id to identify the node
MimeType	string	mime-type of the node, e.g. text/html, image/png, ...
LinkId	string	(symbolic) link/alias to another node
Groups	[]string	access control
URI	string	URI
Name	string	name
Hidden	bool	hide in menu
DestinationId	string	alias / symlink handling
Data	map[string]interface{}	payload data
Nodes	map[string]*RepoNode	child nodes
Index	[]string	contains the order of of nodes

Tips

• If you do not want to build a multi-market website define a generic market, e.g. call it universe
• keep it lean and do not export content which should not be accessible at all, e.g. you are working on a super secret fancy new category of your website
• Hidden nodes can be resolved by their uri, but are hidden on nodes
• To avoid duplicate content provide a DestinationId ( = ContentId of the node you want to reference) instead of URIs

Request Data

There is a PHP Proxy implementation for foomo in Foomo.ContentServer. Feel free to use it or to implement your own proxy in the language you love. The API should be easily to implement in every other framework and language, too.
