Instead of making this complex and getting more control over the flow, i would suggest to go with the a custom behavior approach which can listen to node creation event and on create node event it can gather the required info and pass it on to third party system via http post call. You can add validation/check for the specific parent folder node as well if required
Implementing behvaior : https://ecmarchitect.com/alfresco-developer-series-tutorials/behaviors/tutorial/tutorial.html#implem...
Here you can find an example of behvaior which listens to node creation event (NodeServicePolicies.OnCreateNodePolicy😞 https://github.com/jpotts/alfresco-developer-series/blob/master/behaviors/behavior-tutorial/behavior...
A similar example can be found here as well: https://github.com/jpotts/alfresco-kafka/blob/master/alfresco-kafka-repo/src/main/java/com/metaversa...
your implementation could be something like;
public class CreateObjectBehaviour implements
NodeServicePolicies.OnCreateNodePolicy, InitializingBean {
private final NodeService nodeService;
private final PolicyComponent policyComponent;
public CreateObjectBehaviour(final ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry,
final PolicyComponent policyComponent) {
this.nodeService = serviceRegistry.getNodeService();
this.policyComponent = policyComponent;
}
@Override
public void afterPropertiesSet() {
//You can bind on custom types as well based on your requirement.
policyComponent.bindClassBehaviour(NodeServicePolicies.OnCreateNodePolicy.QNAME,
ContentModel.TYPE_CONTENT, new JavaBehaviour(this, "onCreateNode", NotificationFrequency.EVERY_EVENT));
}
@Override
public void onCreateNode(final ChildAssociationRef childAssocRef) {
final NodeRef createdNode = childAssocRef.getChildRef();
if (nodeService.exists(createdNode)) {
//TODO::
//Get the information from created node
//Prepare the post call payload as needed
//Send post request
}
}
}
