processTemplate error

[outlandish]

Hi, I am trying to create a document that uses a custom template to fill up its content.

In an attempt to test it, I have run into issues. I get

org.alfresco.repo.jscript.ScriptNode cannot be cast to org.mozilla.javascript.Wrapper‍

error when I try to call the processTemplate function.

<javascript>

var tmp = search.luceneSearch("PATH:\"/app:company_home\"");
var companyhome = tmp[0];
var userhome = companyhome.childByNamePath("User Homes/bob/");

var form = userhome.createFile("output.txt");
node = search.findNode("workspace://SpacesStore/5515d3e1-bb2a-42ed-833c-52802a367033")

var args = new Array();
args['totalHours'] = 13;

var template = "<h3>Timesheet Form</h3>" +
               "Total Hours Worked: ${args['totalHours']}";

var result = node.processTemplate(template, args);

form.content = result;
form.save();
</javascript>


Appreciate any help. Thank you.

could you post more logs related to the error.
One more thing I think you can directly use userhome object in your script it is readily available, no need to do search and all.
Also, what happens if you do it other way i.e. creating template file in the repository take the noderef of that file and the call processtemplate.

var template = companyhome.childByNamePath("/Data Dictionary/Presentation Templates/custom.ftl");
if (template != null)
{
   var result = document.processTemplate(template);
   // output result to the console - could just as easily save the content into a new node…
   logger.log(result);
}

I have tried that way aswell and I am returned with the same error. Script specifically breaks at the processTemplate line. Any other ideas?

Thanks

I think the problem is with your node on which you are calling the processTemplate API.
It should be scriptNode but in your case you are not getting the proper node.
DO one thing inorder to make sure node you are getting is proper first try to print the name
as follow.

node.properties.name

then only try to call that API also you can try it using run Action on any document where you can use document.

var form = userhome.createFile("output.txt"); 
var template = " testinggggggg ";

var result = document.processTemplate(template);

form.content = result;
form.save();

I solved this issue by removing the code that searches for companyhome and by calling it directly. I had to do this before because when I was running the webscript from classpath, I would get a companyhome not defined error.
Could somone care to explain why processTemplate doesn't work when I obtain companyhome through search and why sometimes I get a companyhome not defined error?
Thanks

Great!!!

Now to answer your question

There are various root objects provided by alfresco to use in the script and companyhome is one of them.
but
The root objects available to your JavaScript code will depend on the context in which the code is invoked. Different contexts will have access to a different set of root objects. There are several contexts to be considered:

    Web scripts
    Surf
    Rules/actions
    Workflow
    Explorer
So It always depend on the context in which you are invoking your script.
