Javascript and associations

[ale_carraro]

Hi to all, I've been using Alfresco for a month and now I'm starting to extend it. I'm trying to create a new aspect and I'm using the JS api to test my model.

The model contains the following

      <aspect name="bw:sign">
         <title>Sign a document</title>
         <properties>
            <property name="bw:signDate">
               <type>d:date</type>
            </property>
         </properties>
         <associations>
            <association name="bw:signedBy">
               <source>
                  <mandatory>false</mandatory>
                  <many>true</many>
               </source>
               <target>
                  <class>cm:person</class>
                  <mandatory>false</mandatory>
                  <many>true</many>
               </target>
            </association>
         </associations>
      </aspect>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I want that 0 or many people could sign a document. With the js api I was able to set the signDate attribute. However, I've no idea what kind of the syntax to use… I've tried with

document.properties["bw:signedBy"] = person‍

but I'm nearly sure it is wrong as the signedBy property should be a List and not a Person.

Finally, another 2 little questions:
1) Where can I find the model of the Person?
2) Is there a place where people put his custom model? May be there could be already this kind of model

Thanks for your replay

Someone has recently answered this. It is impossible as the associations are read only in Alfresco 2.0. This feature has been added since the 2.1 release.

Finally, another 2 little questions:
1) Where can I find the model of the Person?

Found: in contentModel.xml file in the war

2) Is there a place where people put his custom model? May be there could be already this kind of model

Still open..  :wink:
