execute a .jar file from inside alfresco

[roseta]

Does anyone know if is possible to run a little application in java (.jar) from inside a java script file or with a rule or something like that? (my application look for content inside alfresco and generate an .xml file with the resutl) Thanks in advance! 😃

Yes of course.   That's how pretty much every rule in Alfresco works!

If your question is more on how to execute some java from Java Script then rules and actions are the first thing that come to mind.   You can also add your own root objects to java script to run your stuff.

Thank you for your fast answer. I already do a lot of things with rules in my folders and documents. And I already have my .jar file ready to work, but I'm totaly lost in the main step: how to make my little java application run from inside Afresco. I would really appreciate some link or some comments about that.

Thanks a lot again! 😃
