List of files (including folders)

libman — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 13:53:29 GMT

Hi,I would like to get the list of files of the space I'm in and change the first character of the file to capital, if not in capital.For this, I am using a webscript, executed in inbound.I know that I must use the ScriptNode copy(ScriptNode source, ScriptNode destination, String name) function to r

Here is how you can do it in freemarker
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Example_Recursive_Template

And this is a simple javascript I've used to loop the repo for conversion, I ran it from a Space, View Details, Run Action


if(space.isContainer)
{
   updateCorr(space);
}

function updateCorr(node)
{
   for each (n in node.children)
   {
      if(n.isDocument)
             {
         //DoSomeStuff
      }
      if(n.isContainer)
         updateCorr(n);
   }
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This should get you going.

I got the following error:


Failed to run Actions due to error: Failed to execute script 'workspace://SpacesStore/0ba91e52-4a33-45bc-bbda-43cf83d7f0b3': Failed to execute script 'workspace://SpacesStore/0ba91e52-4a33-45bc-bbda-43cf83d7f0b3': needed ';' before an instruction(AlfrescoScript#1)
‍‍‍

(last line, beginning with: I translated myself, from French).

I executed the same manner as you described ( Run Action, on a space).

My code, which is exactly like yours:


if(space.isContainer)
{
   updateCorr(space);
}

function updateCorr(node)
{
   for each (n in node.children)
   {
      if(n.isDocument)
             {
         //DoSomeStuff
      }
      if(n.isContainer)
         updateCorr(n);
   }
}

Thanks very much or your answer.

Do you mean get the children of the current folder and work out what are files (i.e. not containers such as folders) and then rename them?

If so that is easy:

var items = space.children;
for (var i=0; i<items.length; i++)
{
    if (items[i].isDocument)
    {
        // do some work, such as rename the file
        items[i].name = items[i].name + ".xyz";
        items[i].save();
    }
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks, that is better, but what I wanted to say with my last comment, is that when executing the code (with details on a space, then run action->script->myscriptname->Finish) I got the error I wrote. Also, with your new code, I get the same error. I saved it as "generalisation.js".

Thanks very much!

With the other default scripts (most of them), I get the following:

Failed to run Actions due to error: Failed to execute script 'workspace://SpacesStore/0cfd1f9d-a388-4d94-8e19-60203a8b4675': Failed to execute script 'workspace://SpacesStore/0cfd1f9d-a388-4d94-8e19-60203a8b4675': Wrapped org.alfresco.service.cmr.repository.CyclicChildRelationshipException: Cyclic parent-child relationship detected: current node: 4472 current path: {http://www.alfresco.org/model/system/1.0}henry.jones/{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}Backup next assoc: 4490 (AlfrescoScript#11)‍

What can be the problem?
