Find noderef of folder based on path without solr

Hi Team,

I want to find noderef of the folder based on its path in java webscript. I have disabled solr in my Alfresco. How can I get it using cmis or any other way which does not use solr?

Thanks

WIthout SOLR, you essentially have to use Alfresco's Java API (either FileFolderService.resolveNamePath(), SearchService.selectNodes() or iteratively NodeService.getChildByName()) to resolve a path to a node reference. Depending on which API you use, there are some differences in semantics / limitations. E.g. FileFolderService only allows you to deal with - as the name suggests - files and folders, and any nodes not fitting into those two base types will be unsupported. It also limits you to the cm:contains association for paths. SearchService.selectNodes() requires you to use an XPath, and NodeService.getChildByName() requires you to split your path and iteratively perform the lookup - but both are unrestricted with regards to type of nodes and child associations supported.

You can try to use getObjectByPath(String path) method of cmis Session interface
