If you want to use

<authentication runas="admin">user</authentication>‍

element in your web script descriptor,you should place the webscript in classpath instead of repository.

thanks. I will try it later and check if it is my solution.

But now I have one question. Let me explain:

I want to import a script located in "Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js" within the webscript "doAct.get.js" and I use the next four options with errors in all of then:


//<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">
//<import resource="workspace://SpacesStore/7c409e0f-0861-4d10-b9a1-e694b48bc445">
//<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">;
<import resource="workspace://SpacesStore/7c409e0f-0861-4d10-b9a1-e694b48bc445">;
‍‍‍‍‍‍

And this is the error:
If I comment the import lines the error doesn't appear.
With the import line I get an error with "status.code = 404;" (work if the import resource line is commented)
If I comment the line with status code, I get the error in the "model.fichero=fichero;" (It also works if the import resource is commented)

The error happens with all the "status.*" and "model.*" lines when the import tag is not commented, but i must import that file.

Have you got any idea about the solution??

Thanks a lot!

The import lines must always be first in the file - <strong>even before any comments,and without ending ";"</strong>
So your doAct.get.js should be like this


<import resource="workspace://SpacesStore/7c409e0f-0861-4d10-b9a1-e694b48bc445">
//______________________

//______________________

// 

var fichero = null;

var fichero = getDoc(args.nId);

var periodoAbierto;

var mensaje="";
….
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

or like this


<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">

//______________________

//______________________

// 

var fichero = null;

var fichero = getDoc(args.nId);

var periodoAbierto;

var mensaje="";
….

I did the same you mention but it still showing error on the same lines as before.

After that, I emptied the imported script in case there were some error in the file but still the same error.

I don't know why this is happening.

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

kaynezhang — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 00:40:27 GMT

Weird,it should work.It might have something to do with your alfresco version.
Please try to place all webscripts file(doAct.get.js/doAct.get.desc.xml/doAct.get.ftl) and "modify_metadata.js" into classpath and import it from classpath using


<import resource="classpath:/***/***/modify_metadata.js">
‍‍‍

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

cperez — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 07:50:00 GMT

I place all the documens (webscripts files and modify_metadata.js)in that folder and restart alfresco every time I modified any file:


/opt/Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct
‍‍‍

and I try to import the javascript file with that options:


<import resource="classpath:/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct/modify_metadata.js">
‍‍‍

and


<import resource="classpath:/opt/Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct/modify_metadata.js">
‍‍‍

and finally with the repository javascript


<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">
‍‍‍

but I'm having the same error.

Do you know any other option??
Or is there another way to do that??

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

kaynezhang — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 08:21:36 GMT

Weird ,both


<import resource="classpath:/alfresco/templates/webscripts/doAct/modify_metadata.js">
‍‍‍

and


<import resource="/Company Home/Data Dictionary/Scripts/modify_metadata.js">
‍‍‍

should work.
Could you please try to copy content in "modify_metadata.js" into "doAct.get.js" and avoid using import?

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

cperez — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 12:27:31 GMT

Yes I tried it.
If I copy content in "modify_metadata.js" into "doAct.get.js", it works ok but I need to avoid that option because I want to hide the content to end users. This is why i want to store "modify_metadata.js" in alfresco repository ans use the import option in "doAct.get.js".

Thanks.

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

kaynezhang — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 14:16:00 GMT

Could you please try it in a newer alfresco version ,it might be a bug of your version.

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

cperez — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 15:32:43 GMT

Sorry, but I can't try this option because I have all the system with this version and I must to keep it.

By the way. With my alfresco version is posible to call the alfresco "run Action/Script" within this webscript without using the import tag??
(such as the steps in the interface: go to folder detail, select run action, select run script, select the script file, click next and finish to run the action)

Thanks in advance

I'm sorry It is not clear to me what you mean by <strong>By the way. With my alfresco version is posible to call the alfresco "run Action/Script" within this webscript without using the import tag??</strong>.

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

cperez — Thu, 25 Sep 2014 06:56:00 GMT

I'm sorry, let me explain better.

In alfresco, in every space we have the action "Show details", which open a new page with space detail. Then in the action panel I have the option "Run action". Selecting it we can choose the option "run script action" to execute a javascript placed in alfresco repository.

And my idea is to avoid import the script within the webscript and change it to some call (if exits) to do automatically the steps explained before.

Is it clearer now?

thanks for your time.

Re: How to do runas admin in webscript

kaynezhang — Sun, 28 Sep 2014 03:20:22 GMT

I'm not ver clear about your requirement.but yes you can use rules to execute a javascript action when some events happen.
