Actions or Behaviors for Custm Content Model?

simo2010 — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 14:19:10 GMT

Hi all,i have the following requirements, but i don't know the right way to accomplisch themystem:-Alfresco EE 3.3.2 bundle-Windows 2003 R2 server 32-Bit-SDK3.3-A CIFS FolderRequirements:- A custom Content Model (have already defined and successfull deployed) for PDF documents<?xml version="1.0

I've done something similar with an XML instead.

I think you should make an action:

An action that executed on a PDF custom type node checks if there is a "ini" file corresponding to the PDF (for example you could use the same name for both the PDF and the INI) and if so it parses it and updates the values of the PDF. After that it should delete the INI file.

Then in the folder use rules:
1- When PDF comes in specialise to custom type
2- When custom type comes in execute the action

The only "caveat" is that you must put the INI file before the PDF in order for this to work.

Hi iblanco,
thank you for reply. I have done the steps you described, and this works fine. But i have a problem with the PDF file:
Here is my Action class:

public class InvoiceDataActionExecuter extends ActionExecuterAbstractBase {

                  System.out.println(line);
                  if (count > 7) {
                     System.out.println(line);
                     line = line.substring(line.indexOf('=') + 2);
                     System.out.println("dies ist line: " + line);

                     //line = line.replaceAll("\"", "");
                     line=line.substring(1, line.lastIndexOf('"'));
                     
                     list.add(line);

the problem is that after proccessing dei JPL file and set the properties for the PDF file, the PDF file is coruppt, so that i can't open the PDF file. and Alfresco ends with the following Exception:

The node's content is missing:
node: workspace://SpacesStore/b8a344d7-a00a-453f-a068-77dc18edd789
reader: null
Please contact your system administrator.

should i check out the PDF file before run action and the check in?
i don't know what is wrong in my Action class.

please any idea?

As a quick guess:

If you use NodeService#setProperties as you do, this will completely replace (not merge) the nodes properties, including the cm:content property :evil:

Thus, you should update the properties like this:

Map<QName, Serializeable> props = nodeService.getProperties(nodeRef);
props.put(…); // as often as needed
nodeService.putProperties(nodeRef, props);‍‍‍

As a side note, it is a bad habit sending debug messages with System.out.println() - you should rather use the Commons::Logging framework. This is much more flexible in the long run, as it allows to switch off debugging for a component with a single entry in log4js config file, rather than uncommenting dozens of code lines 🙂

Cheers
Gyro

Well it seems like Gyro already answered you.
As a side comment say that in your code I think some things could probably been done in an easier way, for example you could get the Store ref just by calling getStoreRef() method on the actioned node and probably using the nodeService you could use getParentAssocs in its 3 parameter version in order to ask for the "cm:contains" assoc that relates the document to a "cm:folder" node.

Hi Gyro and iblanco,

@Gyro

As a side note, it is a bad habit sending debug messages with System.out.println()

thank you for your advice on logging. I usually use log4j, so i have my own log4j.properties file along with the Action class in a jar, that i have deployed under tomcat/weapp/alfresco/WEB-INF/lib directory, but Alfresco ignores it. i am newbie in alfresco and don't know how to deploy custom log4j.properties, so that it extends Alfresco logging. therefore System.out.print() was the only alternative for my to get log messages.
can you help me in order to get logging with log4j.

I have actually an bigger issue:
i have defined a composite rule with 2 actions:
-Action 1: when PDF file comes –> specialize type (SAP Content Model), then
-Action 2: set the value of custom property SAP_ID (when JPL file exists and SAP_ID length is 32 char then set property and then detete JPL file, otherwise move the PDF file into a so called "Fault_Folder")

Now, when i add manually the JPL and PDF files in Web Explorer (Add Content), the rule works fine. but when i add the files through CIFS the Action get twice executed and the following occures in tomcat log :

call doAction()…
 actioned Node exists
call makeJPLFileName()…

i understand the NullpointerException, because JPL file was deleted, but i can't understand why the doAction method get twice executed. I copy the 2 files simultaneously to the CIFS folder (Drag & drop). that means JPL exists at execution time (and the SAP_ID field is exaclly 32 char). No reason to move the PDF file.

here is my updated Action Class (sorry still with bad logging from System.out):

Re: Actions or Behaviors for Custm Content Model?

iblanco — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 15:47:27 GMT

Sorry, I'll be out of the office for a couple of weeks and can't check it very thoroughly. Are you sure the rule is firing just over PDF files ?

Maybe the CIFS protocol does use a temporary PDF file or something like that ? Could you try to log the name of the actioned node ? That would show you if it is really acting upong the right node, or just print the nodeRef for the actioned node to see if it is fireng twice in the same node.

Behaviours do have such problems as executing twice (unless you specify it to be executed jsut once per transaction), but I'm not aware of such a problem with the rules engine.
