Abstract
Method and apparatus for chaining configuration sets in a content management system (CMS). A CMS groups configuration rules from multiple configuration sets and for rule inheritance between configuration sets. The configuration sets provide a set of processing rules or artifacts used with content managed by the CMS, (e.g., a collection of XML documents).
Claims23
A method of managing a document in a content management system (CMS), comprising:
- receiving a request to access a document of a specified document type;
- identifying a first configuration set associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the first configuration set specifies at least a first processing rule for processing the document;
- identifying a second configuration set associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the second configuration set specifies at least a second processing rule for processing the document;
- identifying a chaining policy associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the chaining policy specifies a chaining rule for applying the first processing rule and the second processing rule to the document;
- and
- binding the document to the chaining policy, wherein the first processing rule and the second processing rule are applied to the document as specified by the chaining policy.

A computer-readable storage medium containing a program which, when executed, performs an operation managing a document in a content management system (CMS), comprising:
- receiving a request to access a document of a specified document type;
- identifying a first configuration set associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the first configuration set specifies at least a first processing rule for processing the document;
- identifying a second configuration set associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the second configuration set specifies at least a second processing rule for processing the document;
- identifying a chaining policy associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the chaining policy specifies a chaining rule for applying the first processing rule and the second processing rule to the document;
- and
- binding the document to the chaining policy, wherein the first processing rule and the second processing rule are applied to the document as specified by the chaining policy.
3 more elements
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory containing a content management system (CMS) which, when executed by the processor, is configured to:
- receive a request to access a document of a specified document type;
- identify a first configuration set associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the first configuration set specifies at least a first processing rule for processing the document;
- identify a second configuration set associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the second configuration set specifies at least a second processing rule for processing the document;
- identify a chaining policy associated with the document specified in the request, wherein the chaining policy specifies a chaining rule for applying the first processing rule and the second processing rule to the document;
- and
- bind the document to the chaining policy, wherein the first processing rule and the second processing rule are applied to the document as specified by the chaining policy.
