Jackrabbit Oak - the next generation content repository

Jackrabbit Oak is a scalable, high-performance hierarchical content repository designed for use as the foundation of modern world-class web sites and other demanding content applications.

The Oak effort is a part of the Apache Jackrabbit project. Apache Jackrabbit is a project of the Apache Software Foundation.

Getting Started

To get started with Oak, build the latest sources with Maven 3 and Java 17 (or higher) like this:

mvn clean install

To enable all integration tests, including the JCR TCK, use:

mvn clean install -PintegrationTesting

Before committing changes or submitting a patch, please make sure that the above integration testing build passes without errors. If you like, you can enable integration tests by default by setting the OAK_INTEGRATION_TESTING environment variable.

MongoDB integration

Parts of the Oak build expects a MongoDB instance to be available for testing. By default a MongoDB instance running on localhost is expected, and the relevant tests are simply skipped if such an instance is not found. You can also configure the build to use custom MongoDB settings with the following properties (shown with their default values):

-Dmongo.host=127.0.0.1
-Dmongo.port=27017
-Dmongo.db=MongoMKDB
-Dmongo.db2=MongoMKDB2

Note that the configured test databases will be dropped by the test cases.

Components

The build consists of the following main components:

• oak-parent - parent POM
• oak-doc - Oak documentation
• oak-commons - shared utility code
• oak-core - Oak repository API and implementation
• oak-jcr - JCR binding for the Oak repository
• oak-sling - integration with Apache Sling
