Context Management
It is responsible for managing Context belonging to the same Application Domain.
Security configuration based on Authorization Framework make this port type accessible only from Resource Manager. In other words no others client is allowed to manage Context rather than Resource Manager.
Context requirements:
- No predefined number of levels.
- Possibility to change the name of the Context with no impact for any component.
- Possibility to move a Context from a parent Context to another.
Available Methods:
Any action made to Contexts succeed if the following requirements are guaranteed:
- Two Context with same name can exist but only if they have different parents. The operation which will try to obtain a Context with the same name to the same parent will fails with no effect.
- Any operation made in any Context has effect only to the Context. In other words, there will be no effect on the associated Entity and Relations.
At time of writing this port type is only accessible by using REST API. Resource Registry Context Client (java client) is under development.

ER Management
Apart the REST API this port type can be used also by using Resource Registry Publisher java client.
Resource Registry Publisher has the following maven coordinates
<dependency> <groupId>org.gcube.information-system</groupId> <artifactId>resource-registry-publisher</artifactId> <version>[1.0.0-SNAPSHOT, 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT)</version> </dependency>
To use the client you need first get a ResourceRegistryPublisher instance. By using ResourceRegistryPublisher.create() method the library discover the correct endpoint to interact with the Resource Registry for the current context.
SecurityTokenProvider.instance.set("Your-NextNext-Token-Here"); //If not already set ResourceRegistryPublisher resourceRegistryPublisher = ResourceRegistryPublisherFactory.create();
