Access remotely Alfresco with Web Service

alcazar — Tue, 15 May 2007 12:11:11 GMT

Hi all,I am attempting to start an alfresco session on a remote machine but I am getting the error: (404)/alfresco/api/AuthenticationService I have a webserviceclient.properties file in the path: \webroot\WEB-INF\lib\alfresco, with the follow sentence: repository.location=http://10.114.197.207:8080/

Well,

I have changed the code, now I have written:

AuthenticationUtils.startSession"admin","admin");
String _ticket = AuthenticationUtils.getCurrentTicket();

And now the error has changed, when I am attempting to start an alfresco session on a remote machine appear:

org.alfresco.webservice.util.WebServiceException: Error starting session

What is the problem?

well, finally I have achieved this one.

Now, I want to get a list of spaces or content for an user… really, I want to show the nodes of alfresco in an object, that it can be represented in html.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards

Watch the Alfresco SDK 2.0. It has examples. One of them is a search of content and list the worspaces.

You can do a search:


AuthenticationUtils.startSession(USER, PASS);
   
         repositoryService = WebServiceFactory.getRepositoryService();         
         
         //buildQuery = "-TYPE:\"{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}folder\" AND TYPE:\"{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}content\"";
         buildQuery = "-TYPE:\"{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}folder\"";
         if (sSolutionText !=null && sSolutionText!="") buildQuery = buildQuery + " TEXT:\""+sSolutionText+"\" ";
         if (metadata != null)
         {
            for (i=0; i < metadata.size(); i++)
            {
               buildQuery = buildQuery + " @cm\\:metadata1:\""+metadata.get(i)+"\" ";
               buildQuery = buildQuery + " @cm\\:metadata2:\""+metadata.get(i)+"\" ";
               buildQuery = buildQuery + " @cm\\:metadata3:\""+metadata.get(i)+"\" ";
               buildQuery = buildQuery + " @cm\\:metadata4:\""+metadata.get(i)+"\" ";
               buildQuery = buildQuery + " @cm\\:metadata5:\""+metadata.get(i)+"\" ";   
            }
         }
         // Create a query object, looking for all items with alfresco in the name of text
         query = new Query(Constants.QUERY_LANG_LUCENE, buildQuery);
        
         // Execute the query
         queryResult = repositoryService.query(store, query, false);
        
         // Display the results
         resultSet = queryResult.getResultSet();
         rows = resultSet.getRows();
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and then, recursively, you can do querychildren in order to search the children of each node

ok!

Only one things:

- what type of object is 'metadata'? is it initialized?
- what type of object is 'store'?

thanks

Metadata is a custom property that i created in the files.
Store is a constant, simply add at the begining

protected static final Store STORE = new Store(Constants.WORKSPACE_STORE, "SpacesStore");

thaks, I have resolved the problem of 'store'.

Now, I can run the web service, but the 'rows' objets is null

Agggggr!!!! My code is below:

try
{
//AuthenticationUtils.startSession(_uid, _pwd); 
Store store = new Store(Constants.WORKSPACE_STORE, "SpacesStore"); 

RepositoryServiceSoapBindingStub repositoryService = 
WebServiceFactory.getRepositoryService();          

//buildQuery = "-TYPE:\"{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}folder\" AND TYPE:\"{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}content\""; 

String buildQuery = "-
TYPE:\"{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}folder\""; 
Object sSolutionText = "Diccionario";

// Create a query object, looking for all items with alfresco in the name of text 

Query query = new Query(Constants.QUERY_LANG_LUCENE, buildQuery); 
        // Execute the query 
        QueryResult queryResult = repositoryService.query(store, query, false); 
        // Display the results 
        ResultSet resultSet = queryResult.getResultSet(); 
        ResultSetRow[] rows = resultSet.getRows(); 
        if (rows == null )
        {
           System.out.println("\n null \n");
        }
        
   
        
      }
catch(Exception e)
{
   System.out.println("\n  catch " + e.getMessage() + "\n");
}

You are looking for something that it is not a folder, but you don't say what text you are looking for. Modify with this:

String buildQuery = "-
TYPE:\"{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}folder\"";
buildQuery = buildQuery + " TEXT:\"diccionario\" ";

With this query, you are looking for nodes(files,spaces,…) that are not folders and contain the word diccionario.

DonÂ´t forget to upload a file containing that word.

Other: where are you creating the files? Now in Alfresco 2.0 you can create contents in personal space (with alfresco web client) and in alfresco 1.4, you can only create content in enterprise space. I think that it can be solve with the function getRoot().

Are you spanish?

Hello nimind!

Well, I tried to run my web service yesterday, and now I understand (so so) the function of nodes in alfresco ( your help has been major issue). I can show de content.

Anyway, I want to do more actions with the webService, and I need to understand how I could show the different spaces, and I want to show documents by custom properties.

(For a better communication, I could mail you in spanish)

Thanks nimind!

Hi alcazar!

Feel free to do the questions you need.
Spaces are directories: Espacios (Space): organizaciÃ³n jerÃ¡rquica de directorios para organizar los contenidos.
Each directory is a space.

I have a little doc wit definitios in order to know better alfresco.

I just post how to see the properties of contents:


reference = new Reference(store, row.getNode().getId(), null);
                   predicate = new Predicate(new Reference[]{reference}, null, null);
                   nodes = repositoryService.get(predicate);
                   
                   for (i=0;i < nodes[0].getProperties().length; i++)
                   {
                      //Nombre
                      if (nodes[0].getProperties(i).getName().equals("{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}name"))
                      {
                         sName = nodes[0].getProperties(i).getValue();
                      }
