Why Use It?

This is a general purpose factory for Exalead CloudView SDK users.

You can use it to retrieve instances of the following objects, relative to a given product installation:

• Push Client

• Search Client

• Management API Client

How to Use It?

String gatewayUrl = "http://localhost:10011/";
CloudviewAPIClientsFactory factory = CloudviewAPIClientsFactory.newInstance(gatewayUrl);

// Obtain a PushAPI client for build group bg0 and connector "myconn"
PushAPI papi = factory.newPushAPI("bg0", "myconn");

// Obtain a Search client
SearchClient search = factory.newSearchClient();

// Obtain the MAMI client
MAMIClient mami = factory.newMAMIClient();

You cannot use this factory through a rewrite PROXY. The PROXY might hide the real host name of the underlying product. This leads the factory to return API client instances configured with a host name that the caller cannot reach. In this case, you use directly the following factories:

• com.exalead.papi.helper.PushAPIFactory

• com.exalead.searchapi.client.SearchAPIClientFactory

• com.exalead.mercury.mami.client.MAMIClientFactory
