Bumping thread.

Hey!

I've got similar problem as szumbusch, but without the need of giving permissions. I just want to have predefined document structure created every time I add new site.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Two easy solutions.

Here a code to create a folder structure. U can create a rule on Sites folder to execute on new content.

if (document.isContainer && document.type == "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/site/1.0}site")
{
   var site = siteService.getSite(document.name);
   var documentLibrary;

   if (site.hasContainer("documentLibrary")) {
      documentLibrary = site.getContainer("documentLibrary");
   }
   else {
      documentLibrary = site.createContainer("documentLibrary");
   }


   var Folder1 = documentLibrary.createFolder('Folder1');

   var subfolder1= Folder1.createFolder('subfolder1');
      subfolder1.createFolder('Maths')
      subfolder1.createFolder('French')

   var subfolder2 = Folder1.createFolder('Notes');
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

For rights :

var site = siteService.getSite(document.name);
site.setMembership("GROUP_Etudiants", "SiteCollaborator");‍‍

U can also create a site's template that u copy at each new site.

Thank you very much Adrien! Works perfectly

Another question comes up now:

Is there possibility, to upload premade documents to folder structure? E.x. I'd like to add few blank docs to newly created site, which would be available for users to download.
