Set Tag on folder name (custom folder model)

TheCondor — Thu, 26 Mar 2020 10:05:48 GMT

Hi, i'm on Communty 6.2 for my office installation and i have set-up a main folder "Customers" in which there are N folders, one for each of these. I'm trying to make something like a "customer file" orgarnizzation.

Each customer folder is auto-changed to a custom model (Customer File) for refine the rules applied.

Currently i want to automatically add a tag on these special folders exactly the same as the folder name, and auto apply these tag to any document created/uploaded in the customer folder.

Someone can help me in this script? I'm totally new to alfresco... thanks since now!

Hi,

You can create rule on root folder.That rule is excute script where tag add code is wrriten in js file.

Excute that rule with applied to subfolder.

Code :

if(document.isContainer){
    document.addTag(document.name);
    document.save();
}else{
    document.addTag(document.parent.name);
    document.save();
}

Thank you so much Sanjay for your help!

Using your script and another which i found here
https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-forum/when-using-an-execute-script-rule-how-can-i-determine-the-name/td-p/186590

i was to build two rules, one (your script) which auto generate a tag from the customer folder name (i applyed the rule just for the rist level, ignoring sub folder inside each customer.

After i applyed another rules, on each file which is NOT a folder (so i exclude to tag subfolder) with this script where it apply the tag based on the 5th folder name in the path (which is actually the customer name!):

var vCurrentFolder = " "
var vElementCount = 0
var pathArray = document.displayPath.split( '/' );
vElementCount = pathArray.length;
vElementCount = 6;
vCurrentFolder = pathArray[vElementCount];

if(document.isContainer){
    document.addTag(vCurrentFolder);
    document.save();
}else{
    document.addTag(vCurrentFolder);
    document.save();
}
