Hi guys,

I found the files to configure the file is on pickerresults.lib.js.

My question is now what will be the properties to get the user's membership of a site?
Is it only just a node.properties property??

Please advise thanks!

Best Regards,
JP

There are a few ways to get this, but you use it on client side js, right? Not 100% sure, but there is already a lot of properties for each user. Log it to the console and then see if the site memberships are already in (I think they are), and if not, you can fetch site memberships by a simple ajax call to the backend.

Hi zladuric,

Thank you for your prompt reply, basically this is now my pickerresults.lib.js:

And yes Im using js. On this snippet code: is where I want to show the user's current site membership.


  personObject.properties.userName = node.properties.userName;
   personObject.properties.name = (node.properties.firstName ? node.properties.firstName + " " : "") + 
      (node.properties.lastName ? node.properties.lastName : "") +
         " (" + node.properties.userName + ")" + (node.properties.site ? node.properties.site + " " : "");
   personObject.properties.jobtitle = (node.properties.jobtitle ? node.properties.jobtitle  : "");
   
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

My question is how do I fetch it via a simple ajax call?

Thank you for your reply.


/**

 * 
 * @method createPersonResult
 * @param node
 * @return Object representing the person

function createPersonResult(node)
{
   var personObject = 
   {
      typeShort: node.typeShort,
      isContainer: false,
      properties: {},
      displayPath: node.displayPath,
      nodeRef: "" + node.nodeRef
   }
   
   // define properties for person
   personObject.properties.userName = node.properties.userName;
   personObject.properties.name = (node.properties.firstName ? node.properties.firstName + " " : "") + 
      (node.properties.lastName ? node.properties.lastName : "") +
         " (" + node.properties.userName + ")" + (node.properties.site ? node.properties.site + " " : "");
   personObject.properties.jobtitle = (node.properties.jobtitle ? node.properties.jobtitle  : "");
   
   return personObject;
}

/**

function createGroupResult(node)
{
   var groupObject = 
   {
      typeShort: node.typeShort,
      isContainer: false,
      properties: {},
      displayPath: node.displayPath,
      nodeRef: "" + node.nodeRef
   }
   
   // find most appropriate name for the group
   var name = node.properties.name;
   if (node.properties.authorityDisplayName != null && node.properties.authorityDisplayName.length > 0)
   {
      name = node.properties.authorityDisplayName;
   }
   else if (node.properties.authorityName != null && node.properties.authorityName.length > 0)
   {
      var authName = node.properties.authorityName;
      if (authName.indexOf("GROUP_") == 0)
      {
         name = authName.substring(6);
      }
      else
      {
         name = authName;
      }
   }
   
   // set the name
   groupObject.properties.name = (node.properties.authorityDesignationTag ? "[D] "  : "") + name;
   
   return groupObject;
}

hey I'm using alfresco community 5.0.d and I could not find this file in the directory.

I want to filter the people search in workflow assignee. (Refer to screenshot)

I need to find the right file which execute or get the list of people after search is made.

Thanks
