where are stock natives webscript

[redraccoon]

Hello

here is my context

For a company I have to make a migration from Alfresco 4.0.2.9 to Alfresco 5.1

In the 4.0.2.9 my co-workers erased some native webscript about Datalist (lists.get.js, uniquelist... , parse-args.lib.js)

I would like to check if the native webscript of datalist in 4.0.2.9 are the same in the 5.1

But I just can't find them ... I would like to understand "how to search"

When it's java class I can go throught the source and just search in my files, I don't understand why It would be different in this case

and by the way, when you have a file to look for, how do you do ? I personnaly have a folder in wich I stock all the sources, but maybe some of you use easier solutions ?

I generally go to http://localhost:8080/alfresco/wcs/index/all and list the webscripts and its details on my Chrome browser. I then utilize the Chromes search feature (Cntrl+f) to search for specific url of webscript or search through description

Next when I find the webscript I am looking for and if it is a Java based webscript, I make sure to add below dependency and its source in my eclipse projects pom file to view those java classes

        <dependency>

            <groupId>${alfresco.groupId}</groupId>

            <artifactId>alfresco-remote-api</artifactId>

            <scope>compile</scope>

        </dependency>

Since Alfresco 5.0 all out-of-the-box ("native") web scripts are no longer contained as exploded files in the WAR. They are now contained in the alfresco-remote-api JAR. If you need to look at the source of these, you can always refer to the GitHub mirror of Community Edition.

thanks for the answers

I was not able to find datalist webscript  in  alfresco-remote-api but in

alfresco-share-services.jar

still hard to "guess" in wich .jar they are 😕

Right - in Alfresco 5.1 and above, the webscripts related to Alfresco Share UI support have been extracted into this project to make Alfresco a bit more modular. This is managed in a different GitHub mirror too.
