Taggable and d:category conundrum

Good evening!

I currently have a little app that does a lucene search for a number of documents in an Alfresco repo and adds an aspect and it's respective properties, this works great!
My problem is that I would like to add the new Taggable aspect via the webservice and it requires a NodeRef for the d:category type

      <aspect name="cm:taggable">
         <title>Taggable</title>
         <parent>cm:classifiable</parent>
         <properties>
            <property name="cm:taggable">
               <title>Tags</title>
               <type>d:category</type>
               <mandatory>false</mandatory>
               <multiple>true</multiple>
               <index enabled="true">
                  <atomic>true</atomic>
                  <stored>true</stored>
                  <tokenised>false</tokenised>
               </index>
            </property>         
         </properties>
      </aspect>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I've had a look at the source and I can't find any way that I can create a category like this then use it in the webservice….

        NodeRef newRootCat = categoryService.createRootCategory(
        spacesStore,
        ContentModel.ASPECT_GEN_CLASSIFIABLE,
        "newRootCat");
        // To create a category
        NodeRef newCategory = categoryService.createCategory(newRootCat, "newCategory");
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

To sum up, I'm looking for an approach to add several tags (I have a list of tags as List<String>) to a document via the Taggable aspect so it will appear in the tagged cloud
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might do this?


Thank you
Alistair

Hi, I'm having the exact same problem you are, were you able to resolve it?

Map<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<String, Object>();
properties.put(PropertyIds.OBJECT_TYPE_ID, ObjectType.DOCUMENT_BASETYPE_ID + ",P:cm:taggable");
properties.put(PropertyIds.NAME,           "tagTest1.txt");
properties.put("cm:taggable",             "Real Story Group");
Document      doc    = session.getRootFolder().createDocument(properties, null, VersioningState.MAJOR);
