Custom Data List

zazugue

Hello everyone. So i am creating a custom data list to link many Accounts ID. Actually, i am on Alfresco Community 5.0d.
I followed this tutorial http://docs.alfresco.com/5.1/references/dev-extension-points-data-lists.html to make my custom data list but it doesn't show in the list of datalist. I added the two files custom_users_Datalist.xml and custom_users_Datalist_context.xml in the repetory : "\tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension". Where did i made a mistake or mistakes?

So this is my file custom_users_Datalist.xml :

Hello.

You have to fix your model registration into the -context.xml file.

<property name="models">
    <list>
        <value>alfresco/extension/custom_users_Datalist.xml</value>
    </list>
</property>‍‍‍‍‍

I saw that you forgot to include the "xml" extension.

zazugue

Thank you for you answer. I put ".xml" but no change. I tried to change the bean :

         <bean id="custom_users_Datalist.extension.dictionaryBootstrap"
          parent="dictionaryModelBootstrap"
          depends-on="dictionaryBootstrap">
‍‍‍‍‍

But maybe i forgot something?
- I create a file name : xxxx.xml
- I create a file name : xxxx_context.xml
- Add the content inside : share-config-custom.xml
- Restart

Hi zazugue,

I think the first thing to evaluate is whether the problem is with the model configuration or with the share configuration. You can verify whether or not the new type has been registered correctly by making a call to the classes webscript giving your new type, e.g. http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/classes/cl_clListUsers. If the new type has successfully been interpreted and loaded, then you should see the details of the type & its properties etc if you put the url above into your browser (needs admin username/password)

If it doesn't show up then the model itself hasn't loaded and there's a problem with either the model file or the -context.xml. If you do see the details, then it's a problem with the Share config (although as far as I know, the Share screen just looks for any types that inherit from dl:dataListItem and shows them), or with the data that Share is getting when trying to load the page. It might be worth checking in your browser for any errors on the console/script errors etc

Regards

Steven

Maybe this is a stupid question. The tutorial i found is for Alfresco One 5.1 or I am on Alfresco Community 5.0 and i don't find the tutorial on the doc.alfresco for this version. Is it possible it doesn't work on Community 5.0?

steven_okennedy

Data lists and this mechanism for create custom lists has been around since about Alfresco 3.3 or 3.4, so no problem there - Alfresco have just been doing a lot of work expanding and improving their developer documentation which is why this is not referenced in the 5.0 docs.

Sorry, I've just seen the problem and as always with these kinds of things it's the little things….

You need to make sure your context file is called xxxx-context.xml not xxxx_context.xml if you want Spring to pick it up. so rename your file to replace the final underscore with a hyphen and you should be set

Regards

I found the error . In the share_config_custom.xml. I didn't noticed i forgot a <forms> tag. And yeah, i just saw about xxxx_context.xml …

It's always cause of little thing -_-

Thanks for your help, it works now !
