Creating Custom Content Model for a XML file

[carolanna]

Hi. Am using Alfresco community version 3.2r.
I want to create a custom content model for the below xml file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SUBMISSION SUBMISSIONKEY="2EE">
    <STARTED>1293168061201</STARTED>
    <FINISHED>1293168061203</FINISHED>
    <PROPERTIES KEY="F9">
                <PROPERTY>
                    <PROPERTYKEY>ADDRESS</PROPERTYKEY>
                    <PROPERTYVALUE>202 HARTNELL PL</PROPERTYVALUE>
                </PROPERTY>
                <PROPERTY>
                    <PROPERTYKEY>ZIP</PROPERTYKEY>
                    <PROPERTYVALUE>6753</PROPERTYVALUE>
                </PROPERTY>
    </PROPERTIES>
</SUBMISSION>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

am able to upload xml files into alfresco using java application.while retriving i want to retrieve based on particular parameters such as address,zip,started number etc.

i have created a constants java file for creating new QNames

import org.alfresco.service.namespace.QName;
public class ExtractorConstants {

   // public static final String NAMESPACE_CONTENT_MODEL = "http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0";
      public static final QName DATE_STARTED = QName.createQName("", "STARTED");
      public static final QName DATE_FINISHED = QName.createQName("", "FINISHED");
      public static final QName ORDER_NUMBER = QName.createQName("", "SUBMISSIONKEY");
      public static final QName ADDRESS=QName.createQName("", "ADDRESS");
      public static final QName ZIP=QName.createQName("", "ZIP");
      public static final QName FIRST_NAME=QName.createQName("", "ADRFNAME");
      public static final QName LAST_NAME=QName.createQName("", "ADRLNAME");

}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

 

Normally if am using default alfresco content model we specify

public static final String   PROP_NAME = createQNameString(NAMESPACE_CONTENT_MODEL, "name");
‍‍‍

but what in case of custom content model.

Anyone plz help me with this.

You would use your model rather than NAMESPACE_CONTENT_MODEL.

Typically you would define a class to contain the "constants" of you namespace/type/properties.  Look at ContentModel.xml as an example.
