Basic concepts
Authentication
First, you must create the webservice object:
OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.getInstance(host);
Then should login using the method "login". You can access the "login" method from webservice object "ws" as is shown below:
ws.login(user, password);Once you are logged with the webservices the session is keep in the webservice Object. Then you can use the other API method
At this point you can use all the Repository methods from "repository" class as is shown below:
ws.repository.getAppVersion();package com.openkm;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.OKMWebservicesFactory;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.exception.DatabaseException;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.exception.RepositoryException;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.exception.UnknowException;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.exception.WebserviceException;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.impl.OKMWebservices;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String host = "http://localhost:8080/openkm";
String user = "okmAdmin";
String password = "admin";
OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.getInstance(host);
try {
ws.login(user, password);
System.out.println(ws.repository.getAppVersion());
} catch (RepositoryException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (DatabaseException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (UnknowException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (WebserviceException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}Accessing API
OpenKM API classes are under com.openkm package, as can shown at this Javadoc API summary.
At main url http://docs.openkm.com/javadoc/ you'll see all available Javadoc documentation.
At the moment of writing this page the actual OpenKM version was 7.1.5 what can change with time.
There is a direct correspondence between the classes and methods implemented at com.openkm.api packages and available from SDK for Java.
