Hi,

I have a requirement to implement one cms application with below features:

Group and User Management
Contact Management
Image and Video Management
Document Management
Books Library Management

To Implement the above features i am planing to start this application by using Alfresco Java Webservices API.

Please suggest me ts it recommended approach because alfresco WIKI stating that it is not recommended.

CMIS is not opt for us because CMIS does not support Group Management.

We can use Webscripts and Spring surf but we need to learn again those new concepts and we have short time for implement this project

If Webscript is recommended please post one java web application example url, so that i can start learn easily.

Please help me to go with better approach?

Thanks,
Srini.

The best place to start learning webscript is your running Alfresco application. Explore it.

Come with your doubts here… We can help you.

If you are looking for JAVA based implementation then download the SDK and play with it.

Hi,

Thanks for you reply. i have downloaded the SDK samples and executed Simple Webservice clinet and i am able to test these samples..
For webservice example application i have downloaded code from "Alfresco 3 Webservices" chapter 4 example which is Books example.

I have tested this example and i am able to running example.. from these examples  i understand how to interact Alfresco repository with Webservice API.

But i am not able to find one complete simple example like above (like webservice interaction) May be i was failed to search one complete sample application. i have found only snippets how to get repository access and creating folders etc…

Please help me how can do the one complete simple example with java(any framework struts/spring/ or jsut JSP or servelts) using webscript.

Please help me

Hi,

I hope you might have succeeded in your above mentioned work. I am interested in the video management. So can you give a solution to below mention doubt of me ?

In simple terms i want to modify the script file associated with rules. Is it possible ? In the next paragraph it is explained elaborately.

You will be knowing that when we apply a rule on a folder for any kind of video conversion then e.g. "Transform and copy content" rule with target mimetype being any video format, then any format can be converted to asked video format.
I wanted to have a rule which can execute multiple rules at a time i.e. "Transform and copy content" rule with target mimetype "3GP" and "Transform and copy content" rule with target mimetype "MS-VIDEO" etc.

I would like to know how can i have such an execution. Does it require javascript API or script file to be wrote ?


With cheers,
