In alfresco repository how to create link for one folder to another folder using java api


Hi guys i am beginner in alfresco.I have done many services such as creating folder,subfolder,uploading document,downloading document,creating permissions using cmis. But i am not able to create link of one folder to another folder using cmis. Somebody told me its not possible using cmis. Somehow i got this link http://basanagowdapatil.blogspot.in/2011/01/code-for-creating-links-in-alfresco.html. But this code is not in cmis. I have never done this kind of programming. Can somebody suggest me how to do this program in maven. What dependency or jars i should add. It is better if someone explain me step by step(in sense how to give authentication). Thanks in advance


Solution

  • I got my answer and we can do the same using CMIS API.

    import java.util.HashMap;
    import java.util.Map;
    
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.client.api.Folder;
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.client.api.Session;
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.PropertyIds;
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.enums.BaseTypeId;
    import org.apache.log4j.BasicConfigurator;
    import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
    
    import com.bizruntime.alfresco.session.CreateSession;
    import com.bizruntime.alfresco.util.Config;
    
    public class CreateLink {
        static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(CreateLink.class);
    
        public static void getLink() {
            // creating Session
            Session cmiSession = new CreateSession().getSession();
            log.debug("Session Created...");
            Map<String,Object> properties = new HashMap<>();
            properties.put(PropertyIds.BASE_TYPE_ID, BaseTypeId.CMIS_ITEM.value());
    
            // Define a name and description for the link
            properties.put(PropertyIds.NAME, Config.getConfig().getProperty("nameOfLink"));
            properties.put("cmis:description", Config.getConfig().getProperty("linkDescription"));
            properties.put(PropertyIds.OBJECT_TYPE_ID, "I:app:filelink");
    
            // Define the destination node reference
            properties.put("cm:destination", Config.getConfig().getProperty("destination-nodRef"));
    
            // Choose the folder where the link to be create
            Folder rootFoler = cmiSession.getRootFolder();
            Folder targerFolder = (Folder) cmiSession.getObjectByPath(rootFoler.getPath() + Config.getConfig().getProperty("targetFolder"));
            cmiSession.createItem(properties, targerFolder);
            log.info("Link Created Successfully....");
        }
    
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            BasicConfigurator.configure();
            CreateLink cl = new CreateLink();
            cl.getLink();               
        }
    }
    

    Code for creating folder link:

    import java.util.HashMap;
    import java.util.Map;
    
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.client.api.Folder;
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.client.api.Session;
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.PropertyIds;
    import org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.enums.BaseTypeId;
    import org.apache.log4j.BasicConfigurator;
    import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
    
    import com.bizruntime.alfresco.session.CreateSession;
    import com.bizruntime.alfresco.util.Config;
    
    public class CreateLink {
        static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(CreateLink.class);
        public static void getLink() {
            // creating Session
            Session cmiSession = new CreateSession().getSession();
            log.debug("Session Created...");
            Map<String,Object> properties = new HashMap<>();
            properties.put(PropertyIds.BASE_TYPE_ID, BaseTypeId.CMIS_ITEM.value());
    
            // Define a name and description for the link
            properties.put(PropertyIds.NAME, Config.getConfig().getProperty("nameOfLink"));
            properties.put("cmis:description", Config.getConfig().getProperty("linkDescription"));
            properties.put(PropertyIds.OBJECT_TYPE_ID, "I:app:filelink");
    
            // Define the destination node reference
            properties.put("cm:destination", Config.getConfig().getProperty("destination-nodRef"));
    
            // Choose the folder where the link to be create
            Folder rootFoler = cmiSession.getRootFolder();
            Folder targerFolder = (Folder) cmiSession.getObjectByPath(rootFoler.getPath() + Config.getConfig().getProperty("targetFolder"));
            cmiSession.createItem(properties, targerFolder);
            log.info("Link Created Successfully....");
        }
    
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            BasicConfigurator.configure();
            CreateLink cl = new CreateLink();
            cl.getLink();
        }
    }
