Content Management and Capture

We are looking for some help w.r.t a basic ICN plugin integration with external REST API for a customer POC (having FNCM 5.5.10 and ICN on AKS). We developed one basic REST API (refer below).

API - host/api/country/India

Response - {"city":["Mumbai","Delhi","Chennai","Bangalore"]}

We have some queries like,

1. There is no WebSphere server in AKS then what should be our approach?
2. We were trying EDS Plugin that require war file to install. I get this sample eds war installed (as part of initial config) in one TechZone env but how to do this in AKS?
3. Is there sample ICN Plugin code available with clear instruction (without any war file requirement) which we can use for configuration and integration.
4. Can we use only jar file for ICN Plugin creation (just to avoid WebSphere)
5. Please share reference link for very basic ICN Plugin configuration (alogn with external API integration) process.
6. Further do we need to map Object Store directly while doing EDS Plugin configuration or it  works as per Document Class?

hi Pranav,

1. There is no WebSphere server in AKS then what should be our approach?
   • ICN standalone containers can be used for AKS.
     
     
2. We were trying EDS Plugin that require war file to install. I get this sample eds war installed (as part of initial config) in one TechZone env but how to do this in AKS?
   • Here's an example of an EDS plugin that is not packaged as a WAR file -> ibm-content-navigator-samples/edsDataSourceSamplePlugin at master · ibm-ecm/ibm-content-navigator-samples · GitHub
     
     
3. Is there sample ICN Plugin code available with clear instruction (without any war file requirement) which we can use for configuration and integration.
   • see 2 above or you can use the ICN redbook -> Customizing and Extending IBM Content Navigator
     
4. Can we use only jar file for ICN Plugin creation (just to avoid WebSphere)
   • see 2 above
     
     
5. Please share reference link for very basic ICN Plugin configuration (along with external API integration) process.
   • see 2 above
     
     
6. Further do we need to map Object Store directly while doing EDS Plugin configuration or it  works as per Document Class?
   
   • No, EDS works at a document class level
