You can try JCR Explorer. The project had no releases since 2007, but I had used it to access Jackrabbit 1.x repositories without problems.

Answer 3

I don't know of any good graphical tools that work well with recent jackrabbit versions. However I find the standalone CLI client quite powerful as it allows you to perform all the simple commands easily and is scriptable as well. If you use the standalone server of jackrabbit you can connect either via davex (recommended)

java -jar jackrabbit-standalone-2.2.7.jar  --cli http://localhost:8080/server

or via RMI

java -jar jackrabbit-standalone-2.2.7.jar  --cli rmi://localhost:1099/rmi

E.g. creating a new node is as simple as issuing a

addnode "test"

Browsing the repository is done with the unix commands: cd, ls and in addition lsprop to list the property values.

For all commands that are available in the client run

For a standalone Jackrabbit, repository content can be browsed using any http-browser. For example, if I have standalone JR running at port 8087:

http://localhost:8087/repository/default/

Here "default" is workspace name, to access any other workspace just replace it with workspace name. Of course, it is read-only and without any cool features, but it is bundled and lets browsing repository content without installing any additional tools.

I like Jackrabbit Explorer as it has a GWT interface that allows "tree" style browsing and it can also search using XPath. The only down side is it appears not to support versioned nodes (it can't open them)
