How to get default views on custom document types

franck102_ — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 09:46:25 GMT

I am trying to get default views on custom document types that extend Folder or support the dublincore schema, but I can't figure out what exactly to contribute to org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.types.TypeService. Here are the types:

<doctype name="myContainer" extends="Folder">
    <facet name="myFacet"/>
</doctype>

<doctype name="myItem">
    <schema name="common"/>
    <schema name="dublincore"/>
    <schema name="myItemSchema"/>
</doctype>

The best I have obtained is an empty listing for myContainer. What would it take (not using Studio) for the myContainer page under http://server/nuxeo/nxpath to display like a normal folder page (with items listed and a "New" command to create subfolders)?

Thanks!

I suggest to read this documentation, especially the UI part and layout part (section Containment rules).

I have read that document and the relevant help sections, many times...

Can you try to just add Folderish facet to your container type ?

I just tried that, and it doesn't make any difference.
