Dear All

I am a new in Alfresco developtment and I need a Alfresco developtments suggestion


I have a lot of data in my system that are organized as a Dictonary and has a Tree structure (Client list, Construction sites list, …)
And this items are values for properties of my objects


What is your recommendation to organize such data structures?
Now I am preparing a simple XML document for each item (Client, Construction site, …) but I know this is a wrong way

is it organize somethig looks like Data dicronary ?

There are many ways you could handle this. One way would be to have "Construction Sites" be a folder. Then, each construction site could be a child that lives in the Construction Sites folder.

If a Construction Site has specific metadata you need to track, it could be an instance of a custom type called "Construction Site". If a Construction Site is the lowest level in the hierarchy then the custom type's parent would be "cm:content". If, on the other hand, a Construction Site has additional children, it could be defined as a type that inherits from "cm:folder", for example, which would allow you to assign custom metadata properties specific to Construction Sites and to store additional children below each Construction Site.

Hopefully that gives you some ideas.
