How to get properties which are defined in Aspect by .js

richard_tsai

Hi!
   I have a requirement to send notification to users by document creator setting. Thus, I create an aspect to store subscribeUsers and an rule to send email by property subscribeUsers.
   My question is how can I get properties which are defined in custom aspect by javascript?
I tried get property like the following
   document.properties.subscribeUsers
   document.properties["subscribeUsers"]
   document.properties["htckm:subscribeUsers"]
However, I just get null value from them.
   Is anyone know how to get my aspect properties in document and how to iterate all properties in document? It seems document.properties.length could return correct number of properties.
   BTW, is there better solution on this?

Thanks

Assuming the namespace for your custom model is 'htckm' and the property on the custom aspect is called 'subscribeUsers' then the third call is correct:

document.properties["htckm:subscribeUsers"]

I assume you have checked that the document has the aspect applied? You can use the document.hasAspect("htckm:myaspectname") call as appropriate.

The value will be null if the property does not exist or has no value.

Thanks,

Kevin

Dear Kevin,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply.
I am sure the document has been applied aspect htckm:aspectCasestudy. However, I still got null value by invoking document.properties["htckm:subscribeUsers"]. I tried to run the javascript action after document created by web ui. It returned me correct data and email has been sent.
BTW, I tried to seperate to apply aspect and to execute javascript into two rules. It still returned me null value.

If it still returns null then the property has not been set. Can you post the whole script? Does the property appear in the details page for the doc if you configure it to appear?

Thanks,

Kevin

Dear Kevin,
      Please refer to my javascript. The property is able to display in detailed page. It's the same result as manually run action on the document by Web UI. If it's the better to have model file for reference, I can post it tomorrow(sorry, I'm not in my company now).

Thanks again.

// execute action against a document
mail.execute(document);

Yes we'll need to see the model to check this. I assume 'htckm' is the shortname of the namespace uri you are using?

Thanks,

Dear Kevin,
Please refer to my xml configurations.
I wonder if it's the similar case as

Hi! Kevin,
I think I know why it didn't work. The rules were executed after document created. However, my custom property was filled in the next page which was after document created. I guess I should sent email in Update event.
Thanks!

Richard
