problem with webscript to update a document

[geveritt]

I am new to Alfresco and I am using Alfresco version 2.9.0B.  I have made some changes to the google gadgets

update.post.js as below…  The problem is when it attempts to execute the statement

document.properties.content.write(content);

I get an error org.mozilla.javascript.EvaluatorException: Can't find method org.alfresco.repo.jscript.ScriptNode$ScriptContentData.write(string) (AlfrescoScript#19)
which is the line with the …content.write(content).  The node contains HTML text and the content variable contains HTML text.

The search.findNode seems to work and setting the encoding seems to work.  If I comment out the …content.write(content) the document.save() seems to work.

I'm not sure how to fix this problem.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Glenn E.


//Code below
var content = args["content"];
var id = args["id"];


// ensure mandatory file attributes have been located
if (content == null)
{
   status.code = 400;
   status.message = "Uploaded file cannot be located in request.";
   status.redirect = true;
}
else
{
   // update document with uploaded content
   var document = search.findNode("workspace://SpacesStore/" + id);
   if (document != null)
   {
      document.properties.content.encoding = "UTF-8";
      document.properties.content.write(content);
      document.save();
     
      // setup model for response template
      model.document = document;
   }
   else
   {
      status.code = 400;
      status.message = "Error: File for update does not exist";
      status.redirect = true;
   }
}

I'm not certain, but shouldn't the line:
  document.properties.content.write(content);
be more like:
  document.properties["cm:content"] = content;

I believe the following also works…

document.content = content;‍

This is suitable for non-binary only.  The write method allows binary data to be written, but you need get the source content from another document in the repository or from a posted form field.

Thanks for the reply you are both correct I was using the wrong method.  Webscripts are very cool!
