Accept only some kind of content types

xmaniac — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 16:16:28 GMT

I just need to cancel all binary file uploads to a workspace that are not images (checking the mime) or OGG videos (checking the .ogg extension). It must be easy to do (easier than creating a custom action, I mean). But I can't really see how to do it. Is it possible?

One way to implement this could be - create a content rule based on mime-type and execute a script, which is kind of equivalent to that of your "custom action" thought. I could not think of anything else out of the box to do this.

1. Create a javascript file with the following link;


document.remove();

2. Upload it to Data Dictionary -> Scripts.
3. Configure content rule to run this script for all content not of you required type.

A custom action is http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Custom_Actions. What would be a script in this case? AFAIK web scripts are limited to URL request, isn't it?

The code raises an exception though:
