Lucene/XPath query for associations

webdesigner

Hi All,

Is it possible to search obejcts by proeprties of the associated objects?

1) I have an aspect that has an association to the object of my custom type.
2) This custom type has a boolean property.
3) I add this aspect to a folder.

4) No I want to query (with Lucene or XPath) for folders wich have this aspect AND the objects associated by this aspect must have "true" in a boolean property.

Is it possible? If not what I can do to perform search by properties of the associated objects?

Thank in advance
Best regards

Hello,

The search API does not support associations at the moment

You may do it using two consecutive queries…

Hi everybody!!

How can I search nodes with specific associated nodes using two consecutive queries on Alfresco Webscripts 2.1???

I usually use one query and then a filter (post-processing) in JavaScript, selecting only the nodes that have associated the nodes I want. The problem here is the limit search, because it's possible to obtain 1000 nodes from a search, and no one has association with the nodes I want.

Can anyone help me??? Thanks a lot!!

It may be possible/better to constrain your initial query if possible. Have you seen the ASSOCTYPEQNAME, PRIMARYASSOCIATIONTYPEQNAME and PATH operators on the search API page?

Hello Kevin,

You mean we should use child associations in the model whenever possible (like for multilingual documents) so as to use the ASSOCTYPEQNAME or PRIMARYASSOCIATIONTYPEQNAME features ?
These search options only work for child associations, don't they ?

kevinr

It depends on your model - if the parent object "owns" the child object and the child should be deleted when the parent is then the answer is Yes - otherwise standard associations are correct. Unfortunately yes those operators only work for child assocs.

Thanks,

Kevin
