Tyler,

I would recommend cutting out eXist (there's nothing wrong with it, you just don't need it) and using Fedora's REST API directly.

I don't know anything about EADitor apart from what's on the project page intro, but I would guess that at some point it makes an HTTP PUT or maybe POST to eXist to store data. I would start by finding out more precisely how EADitor does that data exchange and modifying it for Fedora - the chances are since this is all REST (or should be) the mechanics will be fairly similar. It will probably occur from within an XForms page or an Orbeon pipeline inside EADitor when you... click a button?

So, where does that write operation begin and what does it do? Start there and please post back how you get on.

Good luck,

Tom
