| 41 | |
| 42 Connection to an LTPDA Repository is normally carried out as part of other processes. For example, when submitting an | |
| 43 object to the repository using the <tt>submit</tt> command, the user is prompted to login to the chosen repository. | |
| 44 </p> | |
| 45 <p> | |
| 46 It is also possible to connect to a repository using a script interface. The result is a connection object which can | |
| 47 be passed to other methods (for example, <tt>submit</tt>), thus allowing the construction of more automated procedures | |
| 48 for interacting with repositories. | |
| 49 </p> | |
| 50 <p> | |
| 51 To connect to a repository using the script interface, us the command <tt>utils.jmysql.connect</tt>. It takes the following input arguments: | |
| 52 | |
| 53 <table border="1" cellpadding="2" width="30%" bgcolor="#DDDDDD"> | |
| 54 <tr valign="top"> | |
| 55 <td><tt>hostname</tt></td><td>A hostname for the repository</td> | |
| 56 </tr> | |
| 57 <tr valign="top"> | |
| 58 <td><tt>dbname</tt></td><td>A database name to connect to</td> | |
| 59 </tr> | |
| 60 <tr valign="top"> | |
| 61 <td><tt>username</tt></td><td>[optional] A username to connect with</td> | |
| 62 </tr> | |
| 63 <tr valign="top"> | |
| 64 <td><tt>username</tt></td><td>[optional] A password to connect with</td> | |
| 65 </tr> | |
| 66 </table> | |
| 67 | |
| 68 <br> If you don't supply them as input arguments, you will then be prompted for a | |
| 69 valid username and password. | |
| 70 <br> | |
| 71 The result is a <tt>mpipeline.repository.RepositoryConnection</tt> object which can be further used to interact with the repository. | |
| 72 <br> | |
| 73 To disconnect from the server, use the <tt>closeConnection</tt> method of the <tt>mpipeline.repository.RepositoryConnection</tt> class: | |
| 74 | |
| 75 <div class="fragment"><pre> | |
| 76 >> conn.closeConnection | |
| 77 </pre></div> | |
