Tabbed PropertySheet component

dhalupa

Hi there,

I would like to inform you that there is an extension of PropertySheetControl which enables PropertySheetItems to be renedered in tabs available. The layout itself is configurable through config file. For example, to acheive that cm:content type properties are shown in two distinct tabs you would put the following snippet to your web-client-config-custom file

<config evaluator="node-type" condition="content">
      <tab-panels>
         <!– tab-panel element also supports attributes label-id and description-id which 
            should contain localized messages keys –>
         <tab-panel id="tab1" label="Test tab1" description="Test tab1">
            <!– name attribute should match property or association name of property-sheet component which is matched by enclosing evaluator –>
            <property name="name" />
            <property name="mimetype" />
            <property name="encoding" />
         </tab-panel>
         <tab-panel id="tab2" label="Test tab2" description="Test tab2">
            <property name="title" />
            <property name="description" />
            <property name="author" />
            <property name="size" />
         </tab-panel>
      </tab-panels>
   </config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The extension, amp file and small installation guide are hosted on AlfrescoForge ( http://forge.alfresco.com/projects/tabbedpropsheet/ ). Hope that it will be usefull, and any suggestions and help is more than welcome

Kind regards,

Denis

I followed the installation instructions, but I'm now getting the following error every time I try to view document details (I'm on version 2.0.1):

Please, check if there is commons-lang.jar present in WEB-INF/lib directory of web application.

Kind regards,

Denis

tcordova

No, I don't have that file. Where should I get it?

dhalupa

Strange, I think that it should be part of Alfresco distribution. Anyway, you can download it from here

http://commons.apache.org/downloads/download_lang.cgi

Kind regards,

Denis

tcordova

That works great! nice component.

dhalupa

Thanks

tcordova

Can you tell me if it's possible to set up a tabbed property sheet that should display for content that has a specific Aspect assigned to it?

dhalupa

Sure, just put tab configuration inside of aspect-name evaluator with your particular aspect specified as condition value. Just the same as you would do with property sheet config if you would like to configure property sheet component to show some specific attributes

Kind regards,

Denis

tcordova

Figured it out.

Once again, great component.

tcordova

Another quick question…

I have a custom aspect with custom properties that I'm trying to display on one of the tabs. Here's the aspect definition:

<aspects>
  <aspect name="dsa:approvalCycleDetails">
    <title>DSA Approval Cycle Details</title>
    <parent>cm:content</parent>
    <properties>
      <property name="dsa:status">
        <title>Current Status</title>
        <type>d:text</type>
        <constraints>
          <constraint ref="dsac:docStatus" />
        </constraints>
      </property>
    </properties>
  </aspect>
</aspects>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and here's the property sheet definition:

<config evaluator="aspect-name" condition="dsa:approvalCycleDetails">
  <tab-panels>
    <tab-panel id="tab1" label="General" description="General Properties that are common to all content types.">
      <property name="name" />
      <property name="title" />
      <property name="description" />
      <property name="author" />
      <property name="size" />
      <property name="mimetype" />
      <property name="encoding" />
    </tab-panel>
    <tab-panel id="tab2" label="Audit Info" description="Audit Properties">
      <property name="encoding" />
      <property name="dsa:status" />
      <property name="mimetype" />
      <property name="creator" />
      <property name="created" />
      <property name="modifier" />
      <property name="modified" />
    </tab-panel>
  </tab-panels>
</config>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

the dsa:status property is the one I'm concerned about, as it doesn't show up at all.

Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks,

Tom

tcordova

Ok… I just figured this one out… I didn't realize you have to have a property sheet defined in order for the properties to be available. So I've changed my web-client-config-custom.xml to this:

   <config evaluator="aspect-name" condition="dsa:approvalCycleDetails">
      <property-sheet>
         <show-property name="dsa:status" />
      </property-sheet>
      
      <tab-panels>
         <!– tab-panel element also supports attributes label-id and description-id which 
            should contain localized messages keys –>
         <tab-panel id="tab1" label="General" description="General Properties that are common to all content types.">
            <!– name attibute should match property or association name of property-sheet component –>
            <property name="name" />
            <property name="title" />
            <property name="description" />
            <property name="author" />
            <property name="size" />
            <property name="mimetype" />
            <property name="encoding" />
         </tab-panel>
         <tab-panel id="tab2" label="Audit Info" description="Audit Properties that are common to all content types.">
            <property name="dsa:status" />
            <property name="mimetype" />
            <property name="creator" />
            <property name="created" />
            <property name="modifier" />
            <property name="modified" />
         </tab-panel>
      </tab-panels>
   </config>

and now it works!

jayjayecl

I can't get it work on Alfresco 3.1.
Having a look at a content details page, there is no Exception or error, there is just no difference with the basic Alfresco UI.

I'll have a look into the sources

jayjayecl

It worked by adding, in faces-config-custom.xml, the overriding of PropertySheet :

<component>
      <component-type>org.alfresco.faces.PropertySheet</component-type>
      <component-class>hr.virtus.component.property.UITabbedPropertySheet</component-class>
   </component>

dhalupa

I believe it was written in the installation instructions that faces-config-custom has to be edited..
If you decide to further develop it and you are willing to share the code, please let me know and I will add you to the forge project

Kind regards,

Denis

jayjayecl

OUps, sorry for not having read the instructions.
Usually, whan I find an amp file, I just think this is the whole of it and that I know perfectly how to install it.
Obviously I'm wrong

One question still : why haven't you put the faces-config-custom in the amp file ?

If I go further on this project (Im pretty sur I will), I'll keep this topic updated and we'll maybe go on on the forge project.

Many thanks

dhalupa

OUps, sorry for not having read the instructions.
One question still : why haven't you put the faces-config-custom in the amp file ?

The reason is the fact that faces-config-custom is not module specific and if I packaged it within amp it might override someones changes.

br,

Denis

jayjayecl

Absolutely right, sorry.

I'm trying to adapt it to my custom Workflow.
Well done by the way.

dhalupa

Thanks, hope you'll get use of it..

btw..

<commercial-break>
if you do a lot of highly custom development on Alfresco, you might want to try Jibe framework. It boosted my performance in comparison to JSF. http://forge.alfresco.com/projects/jibe/
</commercial-break>

jayjayecl

Yeah, I think I'll have a look into it.
But right now I'm working for a huge customer, with already designed specifications etc …

After using this component a while I noticed that it unfortunatly breaks the client side javascript validation in the propery sheet. I found a solution that involves patching the UIPropertySheet component in the Alfresco Web Client project. I have created an issue with a patch in JIRA, hopefully they will apply it to be released in 3.3.
