Read content from repository from Spring bean

[jerrycooper]

Hello,
I have problem with  access to repository from Spring bean.
I will have one xml file in known space in Alfresco repository and I want to read it.

My code of bean:
i have setters for services. in …context.xml I'm putting into bean filefolderservice, nodeservice, authentication service and contentservice

…
private FileFolderService fileFolderService;
private NodeService nodeService;
public static StoreRef SPACES_STORE = new StoreRef(StoreRef.PROTOCOL_WORKSPACE, "SpacesStore");

@Override
    public void afterPropertiesSet() throws Exception {
   
 try {
  AuthenticationUtil.runAs(new RunAsWork<String>() {
      
      @SuppressWarnings("synthetic-access")
      public String doWork() throws Exception {
                  List<StoreRef> stores = nodeService.getStores(); //can't get nothing
                  return "";
      }
  }, "admin");
  } catch (Exception e) {…}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and result in log:

I tried method authenticationService.authenticate("admin", "passwordalfresco".toCharArray()); but error in the log was the same.

Know everybody how to easy access the file? If possible in Foundation API.

Please post more information.   What you have at the moment seems O.K.

In particular your spring context defining your bean and some description of how your bean is being called.    It looks like some sort of policy handler but I'd rather not have to guess what you are trying to do.

[jerrycooper]

For developing I'm still using 3.3.

Spring context:
faktury-model-context.xml

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>
 
<beans>
    <!– Registration of new models –>   
    <bean id="extension.dictionaryBootstrap" parent="dictionaryModelBootstrap" depends-on="dictionaryBootstrap">
        <property name="models">
            <list>
                <value>alfresco/extension/fakturyModel.xml</value>
       </list>
        </property>
    </bean>
     
    <bean id="DeadlineBean" class="cz.xxx.web.bean.DeadlineBean">

                </property>
      <property name="authenticationService">

Bean implements InitializingBean so afterPropertiesSet() method is called after setters.

   } catch (Exception e) {

      StringWriter sWriter = new StringWriter();
      e.printStackTrace(new PrintWriter(sWriter));

}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This bean is only test code, but after finishing it, it will be established for reading xml file from repository, parsing it and filling map deadline_firmy. The map is read by jsp, then image is displayed in some rows.

<m:deadlineImg id="col10-deadline" value="/alfresco/images/icons/button_red.png" deadlineTime='#{DeadlineBean.deadline_firmy[r.title]}' startDeadline="#{r.properties['sg_fa:deadline']}" style="padding-left: 3px"/>‍

Due to the calling of DeadlineBean during start of Alfresco, I think calling method in browse.jsp isn't problem now (the image(s) is displayed correctly).

Anybody tried direct access to repository using only Spring bean?

[srviktor]

I'm trying to do the same, reading the content of an xml from a bean.
Have you found a solution?
