Create a folder structure automatically

fguillaume

Hello,

I need to create a space (folder) structure automatically. The use case behind this is when a user needs to add documents for a new client, he first create a complete folder structure before uploading documents into that structure.

What is the best way to do that? A change to the folder structure (the one that is created for each new client) should be easy to manage in Alfresco.

Many thanks!

Hi,

Yes this is possible - log in as admin and create the structure under:
Company Home/Data Dictionary/Space Templates

Then in the Advanced Space Wizard choose your template and the folder structure will be cloned for the new space.

Thanks,
Mike

Can I use a space template to create a new space in Javascript?

Hi

Yes you can - you can see an example of this in the Office Webscript, docActions.get.js:

…
nodeTemplate = search.findNode("workspace://SpacesStore/" + templateId);
nodeNew = nodeTemplate.copy(nodeParent, true);
nodeNew.name = spaceName;
…etc.
‍‍‍‍‍‍

where templateId is the nodeId of the template you want to copy from and nodeParent is the space into which you want to create the new space.

Thanks,
Mike
