alfresco-access get nodeRef, nodeid or nodeuuid

Muffex

Hello everyone,

since I was not able to gather nodeRef (a), nodeid (b) or nodeuuid (c) from the database (thread) I opted to use the alfresco-access api. I need to relate nodes to audit-log entries.

1. But as far as I understand there is also no way to get a/b/c for every entry? This information is only stored for some entries. How can I get a/b/c for every existing audit-log entry?

2. If there is absolutely no way to relate these items ootb. Can I modify the audit log so that the noderef is stored for every entry?

regards

I have been able to realize a solution.

1. Create xml for a custom audit-application (c.f. Audit Log Config)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Audit xmlns="http://www.alfresco.org/repo/audit/model/3.2"
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
     xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.alfresco.org/repo/audit/model/3.2
    alfresco-audit-3.2.xsd">

  <DataExtractors>
    <DataExtractor name="simpleValue"
        registeredName="auditModel.extractor.simpleValue"/>
  </DataExtractors>

  <PathMappings>
    <PathMap source="/alfresco-access" target="/custom-audit" />
  </PathMappings>

  <Application name="custom-audit" key="custom-audit">
    <RecordValue
        key="action" dataExtractor="simpleValue"
        dataSource="/custom-audit/transaction/action"
        dataTrigger="/custom-audit/transaction/action" />
    <RecordValue
        key="sub-actions"
        dataExtractor="simpleValue"
        dataSource="/custom-audit/transaction/sub-actions"
        dataTrigger="/custom-audit/transaction/sub-actions" />  
    <RecordValue
        key="user" dataExtractor="simpleValue"
        dataSource="/custom-audit/transaction/user"
        dataTrigger="/custom-audit/transaction/user" />
    <RecordValue
        key="node"
        dataExtractor="simpleValue"
        dataSource="/custom-audit/transaction/node"
        dataTrigger="/custom-audit/transaction/node" />  
    <RecordValue
        key="type" dataExtractor="simpleValue"
        dataSource="/custom-audit/transaction/type"
        dataTrigger="/custom-audit/transaction/type" />  
    <RecordValue
        key="path" dataExtractor="simpleValue"
        dataSource="/custom-audit/transaction/path"
        dataTrigger="/custom-audit/transaction/path" />
  </Application>
</Audit>

2. Add xml-File to /usr/local/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/audit/ on docker container (alfresco-ce-7_alfresco_1)

3. Restart Container

4. Access all the information you need (via curl: https://[host]:[port]/alfresco/service/api/audit/query/custom-audit?verbose=true)
