There are several methods to get the documents lists, such as getChildren()
, getFolderTree()
and
getDescentants()
, their usage will be described below. The difference between them is the usage of different URL
segments to get data ("/children
" for getChildren(
), "/foldertree
" for getFolderTree(
), "/descendants
" for
getDescentants()
), and a different kind of results (getChildren()
returns a flat structure, while a
getFolderTree()
and getDescentants()
have a tree of items in response).
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.GetMethod;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager;
String url = "http://localhost:8080/rest/private/cmisatom/";
url += repository;
url += "/children/";
url += obj_id;
HttpClient client = new HttpClient(new MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager());
client.getHttpConnectionManager().
getParams().setConnectionTimeout(10000);
GetMethod get = new GetMethod(url);
try {
int result = client.executeMethod(get);
final String strResponse = get.getResponseBodyAsString();
} finally {
get.releaseConnection();
}
Creating an URL to make a request (consists of repository name, the method name, for example "/children/", and folderID to get children from):
var url = "http://localhost:8080/rest/private/cmisatom/";
url += repository;
url += "/children/";
url += obj_id;
Performing request:
var params = {};
params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.METHOD] = gadgets.io.MethodType.GET;
params[gadgets.io.RequestParameters.CONTENT_TYPE] = gadgets.io.ContentType.FEED;
gadgets.io.makeRequest(url, handler, params);
Processing results (the code is located in the handler is specified while making a request, the same way it might be used for all examples in this chapter):
var handler = function(resp) {
var data = eval(resp.data.Entry);
for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
var doc = data[i];
alert(doc.Title);
alert(doc.Date);
...etc..
}
}
