Hello there, I am trying to add a dynamic content type

Its supposed to be a content model called alunos, that has several text fields ( and some date ones) .
What am I doing wrong? Everytime I try to load it up onto data dictionary models it gives me a parsing error.

Any help would be welcomed since I am pretty new at this and might have interpreted the wiki tutorials wrong.

You need to post the contents of the "parsing error" for anyone to be able to help.

Just a casual inspection you have use "my:alunos" for a model and also a type. That could be a problem.

The error was literally this one.

I have? I thought that you had to define the model and the first type with the same name.
I will try to change the name then.

changed the type alunos, to osalunos

this is the new error.

I have seen this error when there is a conflict in the namespace definition. Essentially, only one file in your system can have "my:" as the namespace identifier. Do you have more than one file with that prefix?

The parser is notoriously bad for providing useful feedback. It reminds me of using assembler on very old, very small mini-computers, and debugging them from the front panel switches.

One approach that might help is to strip down the entire file to one property and one aspect and trying to get it to be accepted. Once it is, keep adding properties until you trip on the error.

miguel_martins

Thank you, thats a really nice suggestion.
I changed the code to this, it loads up.

How do I apply this content to a new file? So that I am presented with the properties to fill out in the metadata?

miguel_martins

I managed to load up everything onto the model folder, and activate the model, I was expecting for it to show on the create document bit, as an option to add "Os alunos", however nothing shows there, how do one properly add a dynamical model into use so that it appears?

edit: I tried adding its data to the file web-client-config-custom.xml, but it didnt work.

I guess it doesnt work because it would be the process to add the model non dinamically, what should I do to activate the content in order to be able to create files?

invictus9

I presume that you have done some reading on Dynamic Content Types? You need to enable the model once you have uploaded it.

As well, the web-client-config-custom.xml has to be installed in the appropriate place, and enabled. If it is in your extensions/ directory, it will be enabled at Alfresco restart time. If it is in your Data Dictionary/Web Client space, then you need to 'reload' the configuration using the web client configuration console. This is described in the custom content type wiki page as well.

miguel_martins

I think i was doing it wrong, for I was putting the xml into the data dictionary/models directory and editing the phisical file in the extensions folder.
I didnt knew I could add it on data dictionary/web client.

The edit to the phisical file to add it and the restart isnt working tho, the content type simply doesnt appear on the drop down menu to select.
I will now try out the other method and update this post as soon as I do it.

edit:
it doesnt show, am I writing the code well? Am I making any mistake that might prevent it from being read?

maqsood

Miguel,

Did you define your customModel file in cusstom-model-context file?
there is one more file require i.e. custom-model-context apart form customModel and web-client-config-custom.

check it once, Is that file is in place?

miguel_martins

those are the only two files I have edited/added

Company Home > Data Dictionary > Models >alunos.xml
Company Home > Data Dictionary > Web Client Extension >web-client-config-custom.xml

I dont have a custom-model-context folder on data dictionary, should there be one? Where should I add that file and what should be its contents?
(Thank you yet again for all the precious help you are giving me, really.)

maqsood

Yes, there is one more file custom-model-context.xml you need to have.

You can add custom meta data to a document in 3 steps:
1. Create customModel.xml, define your custom metadata types, which you already done.
2. Create custom-model-context.xml and include following code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>
 
<beans>

    <!– Registration of new models –>   
    <bean id="extension.dictionaryBootstrap" parent="dictionaryModelBootstrap" depends-on="dictionaryBootstrap">
        <property name="models">
            <list>
                <value>alfresco/extension/customModel.xml</value>
            </list>
        </property>
    </bean>
          
</beans>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Note: customModel is your custom metadata filename.
3. Place these two file at <Alfresco>\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension. And modify web-client-config-custom.xml, which is at same location, you alreday done this.

Then start the server and create or upload a document; and select your custom type as document type.
I guess the second step is missing in your process.
Hope this helps.

miguel_martins

1. Create customModel.xml, define your custom metadata types, which you already done.- yes, alunos xml
2. Create custom-model-context.xml and include following code:=snip= done so. =(done so, used that exact name.
Note: customModel is your custom metadata filename.
3. Place these two file at <Alfresco>\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension. And modify web-client-config-custom.xml, which is at same location, you alreday done this.-confirmed

Then start the server and create or upload a document; and select your custom type as document type.-
when i get to this step, however, nothing shows on the dropdown.

Could it be some basic error on my code? It was posted whole above.

maqsood

2. Create custom-model-context.xml and include following code:=snip= done so. =(done so, used that exact name.

customModel should be your alunos.xml and custom-model-context.xml should be alunos-model-context.xml. And context file should contain the below code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>

Check your files are they same as I mentioned above. let me know incase of any issue.

It all seems to load flawlessly, no "obvious" errors in the xml but whenever I attempt to create a new content, there is no sign of this model on the dropdown menu.
Can you load these same on your system?

Hi maqsood,

I've had the same problem which is described in initial post. I resolved thanks to your help: my main error was the not inclusion of custom-model-context.xml at the extension path with customModel.xml and web-client-config-custom.xml.

Thanks for your indirect help,

–Paolo

Martin,

Check your context filename, you got it wrong, that should be alunos-model-context.xml

I had already detected that one, but it wasnt working out, in the end i started from another already working custom model and started adding the data i needed to it, one by one. Its working out so far. Thank you all.
