Does versioning store the document properties?

kbpair — Wed, 02 May 2007 12:36:42 GMT

I have applied versioning and I can view the history of a document. This is great, however in the gui I do not see the previous properties of a document. I am assuming they are still there just not displayed in the gui.My long term goal is to create a hash property for the document. Upon each check

Yes the properties are versioned and yes they are not displayed in the current GUI. However they are accesssable in the templating API, so you could use a Custom View template that displays the properties of previous versions of the document. This template gives you an example of what you want:


<#– Shows version history for the current document, with links to previous content versions –>
<#if document?exists>
   <h3>Document Version History for: ${document.name}</h3>
   <table cellspacing=4>
      <tr align=left><th>Version</th><th>Name</th><th>Description</th><th>Created Date</th><th>Creator</th></tr>
      <#list document.versionHistory as record>
         <tr>
            <td><a href="/alfresco${record.url}" target="new">${record.versionLabel}</a></td>
            <td><a href="/alfresco${record.url}" target="new">${record.name}</a></td>
            <td><#if record.description?exists>${record.description}</#if></td>
            <td>${record.createdDate?datetime}</td>
            <td>${record.creator}</td>
         </tr>
      </#list>
   </table>
<#else>
   No document found!
</#if>
