Up…

I am losing a customer with this problem…

Any help really welcome. Even if you tell me this is impossible to do… at least i have no regrets

Btw, is it possible to run scripts with admin rights? Even triggered by users?

Thanks,

AurÃƒÂ©lien

I need something like this, but haven't time…. may be you can check here:

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Security_and_Authentication
http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=732&highlight=define+own+permission+role

The idea is to define a permission to do what you want, and asign it to the users or group of users…

We made some additions here… The script now works for Groups recursively breaking down each Group's members and sending them an email notification. We also need to mention that the script does not send more than one email in case that the person that has permissions in the file is also included in the group which we think is kinda handy.


function getNodeAddresses(node, addressText) {
   for each (permission in node.permissions) {
      var valuesList = permission.split(";");
      if (valuesList[0].toUpperCase().indexOf("ALLOWED") >= 0) {
         
         var authNode = people.getPerson(valuesList[1]);
         if ((authNode != null) && (authNode.properties.email != person.properties.email) && (addressText.indexOf(authNode.properties.email) < 0))  {
            addressText += (addressText.length == 0 ? "" : ";") + authNode.properties.email;
         }
   
         authNode = people.getGroup(valuesList[1]);   
         if (authNode != null) {
            for each (member in people.getMembers(authNode, true)) {
               if ((member.properties.email != person.properties.email) && (addressText.indexOf(member.properties.email) < 0))  {
                  addressText += (addressText.length == 0 ? "" : ";") + member.properties.email;
               }       
            }
         }
         
      }
   }
   
   if (node.inheritsPermissions()) {
      return getNodeAddresses(node.parent, addressText);
   } else {
      return addressText.split(";");
   }
}

function  notify_users(node) {
   var emailAddresses = getNodeAddresses(node, "");
   for each (address in emailAddresses) {
      send_msg(address);
   }
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The rest of the script remains unchanged!

Thanks for the script aurelien2!

It would be good if you can add this example to the JavaScript examples wiki page:
