Modifying an existing Module : ComponentPresentationDeploy

Question

Online Docs Reference HERE

While extending a deployer, here ComponentPresentationDeploy , as seen below, Where are the different functions, classes documented ?

protected void processComponentPresentation(ComponentPresentation cp, File cpfile) {

    TCMURI id = cp.getComponentKey().getId();
    ItemDAO dao = (ItemDAO) StorageManagerFactory.getDefaultDAO("ComponentMeta");
    ComponentMeta compMeta = (ComponentMeta) dao.findByPrimaryKey(id.getPublicationId(), id.getItemId());  
    Integer schemaId = compMeta.getSchemaId();
}

for example: ItemDAO, ComponentMeta, StorageManagerFactory etc...

I needed to get the TCM URI and read the MetaData field values of the published component ,done as above, however need full members,properties,functions details of the above classes used.

Searched through onlineDocs, CHMs. So far some google searches helped understand a little bit here.

On the downloads page of docs.sdl.com you can find all the javadoc for Content Delivery, and there you should find all the methods you're searching for.

As it seems like you've found it... the easiest way seems indeed to be to "take a look behind the curtain" to figure out how Tridion does it itself, and probably looking online for other examples of deployer extensions, like this one.
