If you use a custom protocol, you must use a custom Sender to send out the content over that protocol. This section describes how to implement custom transport by creating a custom Sender.
Procedure
- Create a class that implements the com.tridion.transport.connection.TransportConnector Java interface. This interface allows for the configuration and management of a connection to a location on the Presentation Server side.
- Compile the class.
- Add the class to the Transport Service cd_transport_conf.xml configuration file, for example:
<Senders>
<Sender Type="Type" Class="com.tridion.examples.TypeSender"/>
</Senders>
Note: A sample Transport Service configuration file is provided on the SDL Tridion Sites installation media.
- Create a Protocol Schema for the Sender—for more information, see Creating a Protocol Schema.
- Use the Protocol Schema in a Publication Target to define the values.
Results
The custom Sender retrieves the values defined by the Protocol Schema using its
configure() method.
