Link To Action in Alfresco Share

[patilr]

Hello,

Just like in Share Repository "Copy To" & "Move To" actions, I would like to create an action "Link To". I'm very much new to Alfresco and have been trying examples from the net. Would anybody be able to assist me on how to create document/folder links in Alfresco Share please? I'm aware the functionality exists in Alfresco (Shelf -> Clipboard), but what about "Alfresco Share"?

Any help would be great. Thanks
RP

Hi,

Please start by taking a look at this blog post on how to create doclib actions:
http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/mikeh/2011/09/26/share-document-library-extensions-in-v4-0/

Then I would suggest you take a closer look in the source code how the "Copy to" & "Move to" actions are implemented displaying the dialog etc.

Afaik there is no REST api call for creating a link, so you will probably have to create a new repository rest call that accepts the nodeRef to link to and the links parent folder.

Cheers, Erik

Hi patilr,
I also have to implement the "link to" in share. How did you implement the action? Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
