d:path type and variable error

[userfresco]

Hi,

This problem and question is the <type>dath</type> variable value
Running a rule that adds the above property to a document with the default value of http://localhost/editor/editpage.php results in a error

Failed to run Actions due to error: The property value is not compatible with the type defined for the property: property: Name: {custom.model}EditLink Title: EditLink Description: null Default Value: localhost/edit.aspx DataType Name: {http://www.alfresco.org/model/dictionary/1.0}path ContainerClass Name: {custom.model}EditLink isMultiValued: false isMandatory: false isMandatoryEnforced: false isProtected: false isIndexed: true isStoredInIndex: false isIndexedAtomically: true indexTokenisationMode: TRUE value: localhost/edit.aspx value type: class java.lang.String

My idea is to eventually add the document.url to the end of the  default value to end up looking something like the url below, but the type of property dath seems to not accept this format

http://localhost/editor/editpage.php?file=http://localhost:8080/alfresco/d/d/workspace/SpacesStore/e...

This value is then displayed in the 'view details' page in the property section and the user can click on the link to edit the xml document

Here are the files below

web-client-config-custom.xml

<config evaluator="aspect-name" condition="custom:EditLink">
      <property-sheet>
         <separator name="sepCust4" display-label="EditLink" component-generator="HeaderSeparatorGenerator" />
         <show-property name="custom:EditLink"/>
      </property-sheet>
   </config>

        </property>
    </bean>

            <protected>false</protected>
            <mandatory>false</mandatory>
            <multiple>false</multiple>
            <default>http://localhost/editor/editpage.php</default>
            </property>
         </properties>
      </aspect>

    

Any other ideas, references or suggestions appreciated
Thank you in advance.

This functionality can be accomplished by making the following changes:

1. File CustomModel.xml

<type>d:text</type>

2. File web-client-config-custom.xml

<show-property name="custom:EditLink" component-generator="LinkGenerator" />

This is nice! Thanks.

I have a question though, if I want (in your example) custom:EditLink to be a link to a text file in another space (so when you view properties, the property EditLink references to say test.txt in Company Home -> Files -> Test.txt) I have a .js to get the url, something like:

var ref = document.properties["custom:ref"];
if (ref == "Test")//user enters test in the text field
{
    var refFolder = companyhome.childByNamePath("/Files/Test.txt");
    ref = refFolder.url;
    document.properties["custom:ref"] = ref; //change it to the test.txt url
}
document.save();
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Although the link seems legit in the properties screen, when I click on it, it doesn't open the right file, just opens a blank.

Any thoughts?
