Hi mitpatoliya, thanks for your help. I am using an Alfresco 4.2 version so I can't use the guide that you indicated me:

IMPORTANT
The procedures outlined below are for Share v3.x only and should not be used for v4.0 and newer.

I have a webscript in Alfresco that get data and show in a json page:

emfradetail.get.desc.xml


<webscript>
   <shortname>EmFra Detail</shortname>
   <description>Retrieve detail of sendings from node id</description>
   <url>/emfra/emfradetail?nodeId={nodeId}</url>
   <format default="json">argument</format>
   <authentication>user</authentication>
   <transaction>required</transaction>
</webscript>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

emfradetail.get.json.ftl


{

"fradetail" : [

   "numFra" : "${numFra}",
   "docId" : "${docId}",
   "fechafra" : "${fechafra}"
   
]
   
"emfradetail" : [

<#list detalle as detail>
{

   "user" : "${detail.user}"

   "enviado" : "${detail.enviadoString}",
   
   <#if detail.enviado>

       "fechaEnviado" : "${detail.fechaEnviado}" ,
    
    </#if>
    
    "email" : "${detail.email}",
  
    "descargada" : "${detail.descargadaString}",
    
    <#if detail.descargada>

         "fechaDescargada" : "${detail.fechaDescargada}"
      
      </#if>
}
</#list>
]
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This webscript works fine. Now I want to call it from document menu action, retrieve data from json result and display it in a page or popup. I configured an action in share-config-custom.xml:


<action id="sm.doclib.action.detail.sending.e-invoices"
                    icon="detailed-view-on"
                    type="pagelink"
                    label="actions.document.detail.sending.e-invoice">
   <param name="page">/components/emfra/detailSendingeInvoice?nodeRef={node.nodeRef}</param>
   <evaluator>evaluator.doclib.metadata.invoice.sent</evaluator> 
</action>

<actionGroup id="document-browse">
   <action index="121" id="sm.doclib.action.detail.sending.e-invoices" label-id="actions.document.detail.sending.e-invoice"/>
</actionGroup>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The action link is display in document menu. This is the webscript executed:

detailSendingeInvoice.get.desc.xml


<webscript>
   <shortname>eInvoice detail</shortname>
   <url>/site/{site}/components/emfra/detailSendingeInvoice?nodeRef={nodeRef}</url>
</webscript>
‍‍‍‍‍‍

detailSendingeInvoice.get.js


<import resource="classpath:/alfresco/templates/org/alfresco/import/emfra-util.js">

function main()
{
   EmfraUtil.param('nodeRef');
   var detail = EmfraUtil.getSendingeInvoiceDetail(model.nodeRef);
   if (detail)
   {
      model.fradetail = detail["fradetail"];
           model.emfradetail = detail["emfradetail"];
   }
}

main();
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

emfra-util.js


<import resource="classpath:/alfresco/site-webscripts/org/alfresco/components/documentlibrary/data/surf-doclist.lib.js">

var this_EmfraUtil = this;

var EmfraUtil =

   getSendingeInvoiceDetail: function getSendingeInvoiceDetail(nodeRef){
      if (nodeRef){
         var url = '/emfra/emfradetail?nodeId=' + nodeRef;
            
      }
      var result = remote.connect("alfresco").get(url);
      if (result.status == 200){
           var details = eval('(' + result + ')');
           if (details && (details.item || details.items)){
               return details;
           }
      }
      return result.status;
   },
        param: function param(name, defaultValue)
         {
            var value;
            if (args[name] && args[name].length != 0)
            {
               value = args[name];
            }
            else if (this_EmfraUtil.hasOwnProperty("page") && page.url.args[name] && page.url.args[name].length != 0)
            {
               value = page.url.args[name];
            }
            else if (this_EmfraUtil.hasOwnProperty("page") && page.url.templateArgs[name] && page.url.templateArgs[name].length != 0)
            {

            }

            else if (arguments.length > 1)
            {
               value = defaultValue;
            }
            else
            {
               EmfraUtil.error(400, 'Parameter "' + name+ '" is missing.', true);
            }
            model[name] = value;
            return value;
         },
         
         error: function error(code, message, redirect)
         {
            status.code = arguments.length > 0 ? 500 : code;
            status.message = message || 'An error occured';

When user click on action link, it returns an error:

org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.WebScriptException - 02200002 Failed to execute script 'classpath*:alfresco/site-webscripts/org/sm/components/emfra/detailSendingeInvoice.get.js': null

I don't know what is wrong. Can you guide me how to fix it?

Thanks

I'm trying detailSendingeInvoice.get.js code in Javascript console:


<import resource="classpath:/alfresco/templates/org/alfresco/import/veritas-util.js">
function main()
{
   var detail = VeritasUtil.getSendingeInvoiceDetail(model.nodeRef);
   if (detail)
   {
      model.fradetail = detail["fradetail"];
           model.emfradetail = detail["emfradetail"];
   }
}
main();
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

After a few modifications to debug the code, it returns this error:

500 Internal Error An error inside the HTTP server which prevented it from fulfilling the request. 02200002 Wrapped Exception (with status template): 02200033 Failed to execute script 'Javascript Console Script': 02200032 ReferenceError: "remote" is not defined. (577418f4f2d1b88660674699ef2f5bb3.js#13)

Any ideas?

To answer your last problem.
Javascript console does not have that remote object available in its execution environment so you are getting the error.

This error,

org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.WebScriptException - 02200002 Failed to execute script 'classpath*:alfresco/site-webscripts/org/sm/components/emfra/detailSendingeInvoice.get.js': null

indicating that your script file is not available on classpath.
where you are placing those files?

The detailSendingeInvoice.get.js file is in alfresco\site-webscripts\org\sm\components\emfra into a jar file. In the same folder are also detailSendingeInvoice.get.desc.xml and detailSendingeInvoice.get.html.ftl files.

When I click in the action link it goes to url http://localhost:8081/share/page/site/empresa-1/components/emfra/detailSendingeInvoice?nodeRef=workspace://SpacesStore/04787df9-652d-421a-858f-1fe80d81de45 and display the error.

Thank you,
