Order by XPATH

ale_carraro

Hi, I'm writing a Custom View, altering the one called
Presentation Templates/recent_docs.ftl

I'm looking for folders, so my XPath query is:
.//*[subtypeOf('cm:folder')]

it works, but it returns the content pseudo-randomly. Is there a way to get the folders ordered by Title, or Name?

thanks Alex

Hi

Lucene queries support ordering by the SearchParameters object. XPATH supports ordering according to the extensions in the JCR 1.0 spec. The availability of this depends on the langauage selected on the call to selectNodes. I am not sure if this is exposed via the template language. You may have to check the wiki docs.

I did it: as explained in the freemarker guide, you can sort on sub-properties using the notation ['x','y','z'…] to do a sort by the x.y.z… property.

So getting the folders ordered by name is done in this way:

<#list space.childrenByXPath[".//*[subtypeOf('cm:folder')]"]?sort_by(['properties','name']) as child >‍
