i searched for a library to do this process but i couldn't find one
the only library which looked helpful was this one:
https://github.com/sara-nl/js-webdav-client
but it didn't help...
in case you had other libraries in mind i would be grateful to know,
because since 4 to 5 days i'm searching for solutions
right...i completly forgot to explain what i want to do... sorry for that
okay
i'm currently working on an arch linux vm
on this vm i installed apache with svn - nobody else has curently access to
this server, just me
on my desktop (not within the vm) i try to to checkout an xml file (with
keywords filed out) and show it within a table
this task is already finished
so right now i want to edit this file and commit it to the svn server
in the end i want other users to access this file and edit it too
in short:
i want to use an html website to get an xml file from svn, edit it within
my website an commit it to the server
i'm providing some pseudo code with youngestRevision = 1040, cause i think
the original code is a bit too big
currently i'm using jquery to achieve this
so within the get i do an OPTIONS to get the Youngest-Revision (1040), a
PROPFIND, REPORT (for keywords) and a GET
right now i do a calcMD5 on the xml String for the HashBase (the MD5 is the
same as the one i get from the svn checkout)
then i draw the table of the persons which i defined within the xml
with some input fields i edit the xml-String
after that i click a submit button
OPTIONS,
POST: URL: /svn/testfolder/!svn/me
contentType: application/vnd.svn-skel
BodyData: (create-txn-with-props (svn:txn-user-agent 40
SVN/1.8.9(i686-pc-linux-gnu) serf/1.3.4 svn:log function
svn:txn-client-compat-version 5 1.8.9)
PUT: URL: /svn/testfolder/!svn/txr/1040-uy/Test.xml
contentType: text/xml
headers X-SVN-Version-Name: 1040,
X-SVN-Base-Fulltext-MD5: (HashBase)
X-SVN-Result-Fulltext-MD5: (MD5 of the altered file)
BodyData: alteredXmlString
maybe this helps
if the original source helps, here is my current source of the commit:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24865265/how-to-do-svn-http-request-checkin-commit-within-html
but until now nobody could really help me
