Re: [orion-dev] Communicating to outside servers

Hi William
An Orion plugin is not going to work for you, plugins are currently not permitted to create files and folders using the file and worskpace api.
Additionally, the Git _javascript_ code you are looking for is also server side. When you do a Git clone, the server is communicating with your Git server.
Sounds like you have to do everything server side, a broker application that gets the data from your data server in a servlet using their REST API and then loads into Orion in the same servlet by calling the workspace/file API.
Cheers...

Hello,
I am writing a plugin and running it using the "convert to self-hosting" option. The plugin creates a new project using metadata it receives from another server. I was able to make orion create the files and folders using orion's File and Workspace api. The problem I am running into now is getting the data from the outside server, I run into CORS error when making REST calls, the people running the server tell me that the server is configured to accept calls from any where but that I should consider using a servlet in this specific scenario. I was wondering if there was something in the orion API that could help me with this, or if there are steps when approaching a problem like this. I know that GIT does this since it needs to communicate with the git servers, but I can not find the logic in the js source code. Thanks.
