Extend automation 6.4

The Plug-in system of OpenKM allows you to quickly expand the functionality offered by the platform, extending the available Automation without having to rebuild the system to add/change the existing functionality.

Step 1 - Create class

• If you make a new validation the new class should be under com.openkm.automation.validation ( this is mandatory )
• If you make a new action the new class should be under com.openkm.automation.action ( this is mandatory )
• Important do not forget to set the tag @PluginImplementation before the class definition
• Pack all classes into jar file and copy into $TOMCAT_HOME/plugins
• Restart openkm server

Validation PathContains example

package com.openkm.automation.validation;

import java.util.HashMap;

import net.xeoh.plugins.base.annotations.PluginImplementation;

import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

import com.openkm.api.OKMRepository;
import com.openkm.dao.bean.Automation;
import com.openkm.automation.AutomationUtils;
import com.openkm.automation.Validation;

/**
 * Check if the current parent path contains a designed one. The only
 * parameter is a path and will test if this one is included in the
 * actual parent.
 * 
 */
@PluginImplementation
public class PathContains implements Validation {
	private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(PathContains.class);
	
	@Override
	public boolean isValid(HashMap<String, Object> env, Object... params) {
		String uuid = AutomationUtils.getString(0, params);
		String parentPath = AutomationUtils.getParentPath(env);
		
		try {
			String path = OKMRepository.getInstance().getNodePath(null, uuid);
			
			if (parentPath.startsWith(path)) {
				return true;
			} else {
			 return false;
			}
		} catch (Exception e) {
			log.error(e.getMessage(), e);
		}
		
		return false;
	}
	
	@Override
	public boolean hasPost() {
		return true;
	}

	@Override
	public boolean hasPre() {
		return false;
	}

	@Override
	public String getName() {
		return "PathContains";
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamType00() {
		return Automation.PARAM_TYPE_TEXT;
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamSrc00() {
		return Automation.PARAM_SOURCE_FOLDER;
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamDesc00() {
		return "String";
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamType01() {
		return Automation.PARAM_TYPE_EMPTY;
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamSrc01() {
		return Automation.PARAM_SOURCE_EMPTY;
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamDesc01() {
		return "";
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamType02() {
		return Automation.PARAM_TYPE_EMPTY;
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamSrc02() {
		return Automation.PARAM_SOURCE_EMPTY;
	}

	@Override
	public String getParamDesc02() {
		return "";
	}
}

Step 2 - Publish

Create your own jar and copy into $TOMCAT_HOME/lib folder.
