For JSF Client: When you define an action in web-client-custom.xml you can specify an evaluator class; e.g AddBlogDetailsEvaluator


         <action id="addBlogDetails">      
            <permissions>
               <permission allow="true">Write</permission>
            </permissions>
            <evaluator>org.alfresco.module.blogIntegration.ui.AddBlogDetailsEvaluator</evaluator>
            <label>Add Blog Details</label>
            <image>/images/icons/edit_icon.gif</image>
          <action-listener>#{org_alfresco_module_blogIntegration_BlogDetailsActionListener.executeScript}</action-listener>
          <params>
              <param name="id">#{actionContext.id}</param>
               <param name="action">add</param>
            </params>
         </action> 
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

which returns either true or false based on your specific code. This determines if the action is shown. The following evaluator returns true only when a space has a specific aspect.


public class AddBlogDetailsEvaluator extends BaseActionEvaluator implements BlogIntegrationModel
{
    /**
     * @see org.alfresco.web.action.ActionEvaluator#evaluate(org.alfresco.web.bean.repository.Node)
     */
    public boolean evaluate(Node node)
    {
        boolean result = false;
        if (node.hasAspect(ASPECT_BLOG_DETAILS) == false)
        {
            result = true;
        }
        return result;
    }
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

You need to write your own evaluator for your specific use case.

Hi zaizi!!
Thanks a lot for your answer!!… but if i want to add an action to "browse create menu" can't i just do it simply like this:


<config>
   <actions>
      <action id="myAction">
         <label>Arquivar</label>
         <image>/images/icons/myAction.gif</image>
         <script>/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/myScript.js</script>
         <params>
            <param name="noderef">#{actionContext.nodeRef}</param>
         </params>
      </action>
   </actions>
</config>

<config evaluator="node-type" condition="SPACE NAME HERE">
   <actions>
      <action-group id="browse_create_menu">
         <action idref="myAction" />
      </action-group>
   </actions>
</config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

My problem is just how do i get the space name??… Is this possible??…
Suppose that i have a space called "My Space" in Company Home…
Thanks again…

You can Use the evaluator , and the java api , to figure out if the node is in the desired space.

For instance, you can get the path to the node through nodeService and then check if it's in the desired space.

Path path = nodeService.getPath(node.getNodeRef());‍

Does anyone know a better method?
