Hi
i am confused with integration of Alfresco and liferay
I have installed Alfresco Community Edition3.2
My requirement is the documents uploaded in alfresco should be visible through liferay
When i searched for this, some are saying that there is a portlet which can integrate both
Some are saying that webscripts are used to integrate
Can anyone please let me know what exactly i have to do for my requirement?

Thanks in advance
Anu

Hi,

You should use Web scripts and expose them through a Liferay portlet. The code of the Web script should do everything you need to do as far as interacting with the Alfresco repository goes. Your options are to use Alfresco's out-of-the-box portlets that expose some of their Web scripts (e.g. MySpaces, MyTasks, etc.) or use Rivet Logic's AWPr.

There are of course other options where you can create your own portlet using any framework you prefer and use one of the available remote interfaces into Alfresco to execute Alfresco services APIs. Liferay's wiki has a page that explains your options. Here's the URL:

Hope this helps,
