Apply template output new document instead of preview

How do I apply a template to a document and create a new document rather than just previewing the output?Thanks

At the moment there is no function for this. We hope to add an action that can perform this in a later version.

Thanks,

Is this solved already in Alfresco 1.4 ?

If yes, how?

It is possible to do this using the JavaScript API - which can execute a template and create/modify a document node to set the content. There is not an action explicitly for it, but you can create a javascript action that calls your script. It's not ideal so will still be something we'd like to add explicit support for in a later version.

Thanks,

simply try out:


var template = companyhome.childByNamePath("Daten Verzeichnis/Darstellungsvorlagen/mytemplate.ftl");

var outfile=space.createFile( document.properties.name+".html");
outfile.content =document.processTemplate(template);
outfile.save();

you might adopt the path towards your template file
