The demo recording will be posted here: <A class="link-titled" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZdIdTk6D3U" title="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZdIdTk6D3U" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Office Hours: Global Hackathon Demo - YouTube</A> <LI-TOC indent="25" liststyle="disc" maxheadinglevel="6"></LI-TOC><H1 style="border: 0px currentColor; font-size: 26px; font-weight: 600;">Instructions</H1><H2 style="border: 0px currentColor;">For people with a project idea</H2>For each project, you should consider addressing the following:<UL style="padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px; border: 0px currentColor;"><LI style="margin: 0.5ex 0px; border: 0px currentColor; font-weight: inherit;">The idea owner(s)</LI><LI style="margin: 0.5ex 0px; border: 0px currentColor; font-weight: inherit;">A brief description</LI><LI style="margin: 0.5ex 0px; border: 0px currentColor; font-weight: inherit;">Any prep work for the project, such as developer tools or skills participants should understand</LI></UL>We encourage you to keep your project idea short and provide any additional details in separate document or blog post within the Collaborate space. This may also allow you to coordinate with potential team members via the comments there without being mixed in with any discussions on this page.<H2>For people looking to join a project</H2>Please feel free to add your name to any project(s) you are interested in participating. Don't hesitate to add your name to multiple projects if you are considering multiple at this point. We encourage you to use this platform to contact the owner of an idea to discuss any details you are unsure about or even improve upon the idea.Apart from any plans you make with the owner of an idea, you are not bound to actually participate in the project you indicated here. When you join the hack-a-thon on the day of the event you can check with other project teams and join a different project, if that turns out to be a better fit for you.<H2>For everyone</H2>The global virtual hack-a-thon is as much a social event as it is a coding one. This means a lot of the attendees for this event often use it to exchange ideas and discuss other matters in the general Alfresco context. To do this, everyone that attends the global virtual hack-a-thon should be prepared to join any of the commonly used communication channels for this event. In the past the main tools have been the <A _jive_internal="true" href="https://community.alfresco.com/docs/DOC-6193-irc-chat" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">IRC chat #alfresco</A> (via <A href="http://chat.alfresco.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">chat.alfresco.com</A> or a desktop client) and Google Hangouts.After the event has come to an end, we encourage everyone that worked on a specific project idea to update the listing on this page with an overview of the project team and a link / reference to the results of the project (e.g. a GitHub repository, document or blog post in this space).<H1>Projects</H1><H2>Community Platform / Engagement</H2><H3>Platform Document Review + Action Plan</H3>Idea owner: Axel FaustDescription: In September 2016 the existing community wiki contents were migrated "as-is" from the old MediaWiki-based system into the Jive community platform. This includes a lot of content that was already marked as obsolete in a bulk operation by Richard Esplin‌ since the Alfresco product had outpaced the community efforts (or lack thereof) to keep the information up-to-date. This information still is the bulk of the "documents" inside the ECM space today and only a few documents have been added since.As part of this project, the community should review the documents that are currently contained in this platform, determine content that would be important to update / add and define an "action plan" of priorities / topics that should be covered. It may be unrealistic to try to make this platform into a full fledged wiki again (and keep it up-to-date/relevant), but if we can identify areas where documents could provide a significant "added value" to the official documentation, efforts could be much more concentrated and efficient, e.g. considering the "work/points balance".*Logistically, if we can add a tag to the things you evaluate and deem obsolete, we could move these items to an archived space, pulling them out of the ECM space and moving them down in search results. (Kristen)Prep work: None really, but it sure does not hurt to look through the existing content and maybe think about what important contents you have been missing before...Interested parties:<UL><LI>Helen Mullally‌</LI><LI>Adelaide Nxumalo </LI><LI>Kristen Gastaldo‌</LI></UL><H3>Extend core model to support properties on associations</H3>Idea owner: Yogesh KodeDescription: Currently properties cannot be added to Associations. There are several situations were a qualified association is required. One way to get around this limitation today is to make the association with properties a "type" where in you end up creating two associations instead of one association. This creates a scalability issue. Let us take the following example: We can have several stake holders of a content. So we can define an association between Content and Person.a type and put a property and then define two associations.  <types>    <type customContent >        <associations>            <association>               between customContent and contentStakeHolder            <association>       </associations>    </type>     <type name=contentStakeHolder>      <property> stakeHolderType </property>      <associations>            <association>               between contentStakeHolder and person            <association>       </associations>      </type>      <type person>         ...      </type></types>As can be seen from above, one association is broken into 2 associations. This creates custom implementation and maintenance. It would be nice if the Association tag could be extended to support properties and associations - something similar to the following:<type customContent>             .....           <associations>            <association name=contentStakeHolder>                between customContent and Person                 <properties>                    <property name=stakeHolderType>                    </property>                 <properties>                  <associations>                        <association>                              between contentStakeHolder and XXXX [this is a contextual association that is valid only for certain content to person association for example.                        <association>                  </associations>            <association>       </associations></type>In a nutshell the OOTB core should be extended to support qualified and contextual associations. (Edit by Axel Faust: idea was triggered by discussion on a <A _jive_internal="true" href="https://community.alfresco.com/thread/232492-is-there-a-provision-to-add-properties-to-an-association" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">"does this feature exist" type of question</A>)Prep work:  None reallyInterested parties:<UL><LI>be the first...</LI></UL><H2>Content Services</H2><H3 style="font-size: 18px;"></H3><H3>Better Trash Management</H3>Idea owner: Axel Faust‌Description: Current trashcan management tools in out-of-the-box Alfresco are extremely underwhelming. The page to clear / restore items is extremely user unfriendly (you can either clear everything of have to wade through a sea of checkbox-marking + data reloading; you cannot search and only see the top level deleted item) and the trashcan cleaner (both as an addon and as an integrated tool in 5.2) is a brute force job that deals with large amounts of deleted items extremely inefficiently.It should be pretty straight forward to build a far better experience using Share/Aikau and Alfresco's full-text search capabilities.Prep work: Work with the current solutions and fuel your motivation with the pain + suffering that they inflinct... And maybe have a good understanding of how to write Aikau UIs.Interested parties:<UL><LI>Ethan Wong</LI><LI>Martin Mueller‌</LI><LI><A _jive_internal="true" href="https://community.alfresco.com/people/stefankopf1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Stefan Kopf</A></LI></UL>Result:<UL><LI>Ensure archived items are SOLR-queryable by the user that archived them (permissions weren't guaranteed to be set to support SOLR)</LI><LI>Aikau page for simple query / filtering of archived items</LI><LI>Fix support for renditions / thumbnails on archived items (workaround for a 6-year old workaround for ALF-6192 and ALF-4119)</LI></UL>Source Code: <A class="link-titled" href="https://github.com/AFaust/alfresco-better-trashmanagement" title="https://github.com/AFaust/alfresco-better-trashmanagement" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">GitHub - AFaust/alfresco-better-trashmanagement: Project of Alfresco global, virtual hack-a-thon 2017</A> <H3> Data Load via V1 REST API</H3>Idea owner: Andrei Rebegea‌ Goals:<OL><LI>Leverage the power of the V1 REST APIs to showcase interactions with the Alfresco repository;</LI><LI>This tool could be used to assess if the community version/single instance Alfresco could be enough to be used by an organization that requires a certain amount of load on the system.</LI></OL>Description: Extend the benchmark framework ( <A class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://github.com/AlfrescoBenchmark/alfresco-benchmark" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/AlfrescoBenchmark/alfresco-benchmark</A> ) to leverage the V1 REST APIs for doing data load on a repository This includes the creations of users, sites and files. Simulate real world scenarios where average is not everything: have folders with huge number of child items; have very complex and deep folder structures; huge files; have very popular sites(lots of members and lots of files); Find a way to load the content with popular file formats (some that can be indexed by solr) : txt, html, pdf, documents, images, videos... (maybe do a web crawler for different formats - start the search with Alfresco related keywords) Try to create folder rules(APIs for this may not be available yet), move/copy(/delete/lock for edit) items around, simulate files that are changed very often - versioning/history;Interested parties:<UL><LI>Ancuta Morarasu‌</LI><LI>Constantin Popa‌</LI><LI>Alexandru-Eusebiu Epure‌</LI><LI>Derek Hulley‌</LI><LI>Codrin Chirica‌</LI><LI>Ana Bozianu‌</LI><LI>Ramona Popa</LI></UL><H3>Persistent, runtime subsystem configuration (OOTBee Support Tools)</H3>Idea owner: Axel Faust‌Description: Alfresco subsystems always provided an API to change their configuration at runtime, be restarted and use an abstract backend to hold persistent state. This is part of the Alfresco core, so it should not be quite simple to fill in the few missing pieces to get a similar "runtime configuration" experience that Alfresco Enterprise always provided to its users. This could then be used as a basis for OOTBee Support Tools to provide the UI tools for administration users.Prep work: Check out <A href="https://github.com/OrderOfTheBee/ootbee-support-tools" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">OOTBee Support Tools</A>, get to know our approach to adding new tools and maybe try to work on a small contribution for an issue in our backlog to get acquainted with our contribution process...Interested parties:<UL><LI>Martin Mueller‌</LI></UL><H3>Alfresco Website Inventor (test the new Alfresco Java Client SDK)</H3>Idea owner: David CiamberlanoDescription: <A href="https://github.com/david-ciamberlano/website-inventor" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Alfresco Website Inventor</A> is an open-source project that aims to build a fully functional website on top of an Alfresco Site.

While this is all nice and well, it does not address an important problem when it comes to Aikau-style forms: How to ensure they are consistent across all contexts and only require a single, central definition without any code duplication? In effect Aikau needs to have a similar configuration option for forms as we have with the legacy-style forms. This project idea would look at adding this reusable forms engine.Prep work: Familiarisation with Aikau and Surf configuration service concepts; especially configuration evaluation (evaluators + conditions), merging of configurations and Aikau widget dependency collection/lifecycleInterested parties:<UL><LI>be the first...</LI></UL><H3>Add Dynamic-extensions generator to <A href="https://github.com/binduwavell/generator-alfresco" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">generator-alfresco</A></H3>Idea owner: Younes REGAIEGDescription: Implement a new set of generators into the alfresco-generator addon making it possible to create new DE bundle project with Alfresco generator.

The service will run Alfresco from the restored data, and then it will run verification tests to check how healthy and reliable the backups are. Reports will be generated on the verification status. We need help to write verification tests, and generating reports. It doesn't matter if you don't have previous knowledge on the topic. Feel free to join us just to understand how backup and restore works.Prep work: There are three big parts: Infrastructure, tests, reporting. The infrastructure might be the less reusable part as we want to run the project based on how we run Alfresco at CIRB-CIBG. But tests and reporting will definitely be reusable for other projects, and they should be runnable on other infrastructures.

Commonly, this table is filled with millions of rows, as it stores about 30 properties per node. Using a table partitioning approach will improve performance and will reduce maintenance operations. This project will produce a shell tool to perform table partitioning on living or brand new Alfresco PostgreSQL databases and also a guide for automatic partition generation will be drafted. A simple "Node Id" partitioning pattern will be provided.Prep work: Familiarity with Alfresco database structure, PostgreSQL table partitioning and shell scripting are recommended to get the most from participating in this projectResults:<A href="https://github.com/keensoft/alfresco-node-partitioner" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/keensoft/alfresco-node-partitioner</A>Further work:<UL><LI style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 15px;">Port this work to other database products (MySQL, MariaDB)</LI><LI style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 15px;">Re-consolidate partitions into a single table for Alfresco upgrading</LI><LI style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 15px;">Provide dynamic partition insertion based on patterns (local and global properties) and evaluating QName based expressions</LI></UL>Interested parties:<UL style="padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px;"><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Angel Borroy‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">José Antonio Matute‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Derek Hulley‌</LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">IN-flight workflow Aikau dashlet</H3>Idea owner: Rupesh SawaliyaGit-hub source :<A class="link-titled" href="https://github.com/rupeshsawaliya/alfresco-inflightworkflow" title="https://github.com/rupeshsawaliya/alfresco-inflightworkflow" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">GitHub - rupeshsawaliya/alfresco-inflightworkflow: Alfresco based Inflight workflow</A> Demo Video:<A class="link-titled" href="https://youtu.be/u14rRzITz9w" title="https://youtu.be/u14rRzITz9w" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">In flight workflow dashlet - YouTube</A> Description: Our goal is to develop an Aikau dashlet for in-flight workflows of Alfresco, it is going to be used for and by Admin user for having status of all the in-flight workflows.

Allowing users to communicate within Alfresco would definitely add value to Enterprise collaboration objective.When we talk about Knowledge Management and similar kind of applications of Alfresco where users can share their knowledge and solutions to various problems, chat can be a very handy tool. The selective conversations can be treated as 'Knowledge Repository' and provided as a 'Learning Material' to others, too. Initially we are planning to develop basic features like Chat initialization, Group chat, Profile Settings, Manage Contacts and Chat notifications. However, we want this component to be extensible up to the 'chatbot' kind of functionality in future.Prep work: Familiarity with ADF components, Overall Alfresco and share customizationResults: <A class="link-titled" href="https://gitlab.com/kalpeshc2/alfresco-adf-chat" title="https://gitlab.com/kalpeshc2/alfresco-adf-chat" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ContCentric / alfresco-adf-chat · GitLab</A> Interested parties:<UL style="padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px;"><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Kintu Barot‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Vikash Patel‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Shyam Ghodasra‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Bhushan Kothari‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Sanjay Bandhniya‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Shubham Rajput‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Vidhi Panchal‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">prachi shah‌</LI><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">andrea leo </LI></UL></BODY></HTML> Sun, 09 Jul 2017 13:15:09 GMT afaust 2017-07-09T13:15:09Z Projects and Teams Global Virtual Hack-a-thon 2017 https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/projects-and-teams-global-virtual-hack-a-thon-2017/m-p/161455#M115386 These are project ideas and teams for the 2017 Global Virtual Hack-a-thon.The hack-a-thon demo is scheduled for Friday, October 6, 2017.
