how to embed Alfresco document in external site?

[hoaivan]

Hi everybody,

Assume that i let Guest access to my document. Is there any feature that allow me to make a copy of an 'embeddable script' then paste into external site. Then visitor can view the document immediately. Just like youtube's embed script. If not, please guide me to develop that feature.

Thank you in advance.

Just stick the document's URL on your external site.

I realise you've posted this in the Alfresco Explorer forum, but you can embed the Share WebPreviewer with code along the lines of:

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
   src="http://<server>:<port>/share/components/preview/WebPreviewer.swf"
   width="670px"
   height="670px"
   id="WebPreviewer"
   name="WebPreviewer"
   quality="high"
   allowscriptaccess="sameDomain"
   allowfullscreen="true"
   wmode="transparent"
   flashvars="fileName=aaar.png&amp;paging=false&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2Falfresco%2Fservice%2Fapi%2Fnode%2Fworkspace%2FSpacesStore%2F15ddb4a8-63a5-4bf3-95a8-4d121d2eaed2%2Fcontent%3Fc%3Dforce%26noCacheToken%3D1257980553515%26guest%3Dtrue&amp;show_fullscreen_button=true&amp;i18n_actualSize=Actual%20Size&amp;i18n_fitPage=Fit%20Page&amp;i18n_fitWidth=Fit%20Width&amp;i18n_fitHeight=Fit%20Height&amp;i18n_fullscreen=Fullscreen&amp;i18n_fullwindow=Maximize&amp;i18n_fullwindow_escape=Press%20Esc%20to%20exit%20full%20window%20mode&amp;i18n_page=Page&amp;i18n_pageOf=of" />‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Note the flashvars variable is a string passed through "encodeURIComponent" consisting of the following variables:

fileName=aaar.png
paging=false
url=http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/node/workspace/SpacesStore/15ddb4a8-63a5-4bf3-95a8-4d121d...
show_fullscreen_button=true
i18n_actualSize=Actual Size
i18n_fitPage=Fit Page
i18n_fitWidth=Fit Width
i18n_fitHeight=Fit Height
i18n_fullscreen=Fullscreen
i18n_fullwindow=Maximize
i18n_fullwindow_escape=Press Esc to exit full window mode
i18n_page=Page
i18n_pageOf=of"‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Note the noCacheToken on the end of the "url" variable to ensure your users are always viewing the latest content. It's up to you whether you generate this value or not.

The i18n messages make the tag somewhat unwieldy, so there's a (completely unsupported and not fully tested) version of the WebPreviewer.swf that has the English strings built-in by default here: http://mikehatfield-alfresco.s3.amazonaws.com/WebPreviewer.swf.zip

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
   src="http://<server>:<port>/share/components/preview/WebPreviewer.swf"
   width="670px"
   height="670px"
   id="WebPreviewer"
   name="WebPreviewer"
   quality="high"
   allowscriptaccess="sameDomain"
   allowfullscreen="true"
   wmode="transparent"
   flashvars="fileName=aaar.png&amp;paging=false&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2Falfresco%2Fservice%2Fapi%2Fnode%2Fworkspace%2FSpacesStore%2F15ddb4a8-63a5-4bf3-95a8-4d121d2eaed2%2Fcontent%3Fc%3Dforce%26noCacheToken%3D1257980553515%26guest%3Dtrue&amp;show_fullscreen_button=true" />‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks,
