Search samples

Basics

Mosts methods use QueryParams. Here there're some tips about using them.

VariablesTypeAllow wildcardsRestrictionsDescription

domain

long

No.

Available values:

  • QueryParams.DOCUMENT
  • QueryParams.FOLDER
  • QueryParams.MAIL

By default the value is set to QueryParams.DOCUMENT.

For searching documents and folders use value:

(QueryParams.DOCUMENT | QueryParams.FOLDER)

Restrict the search to a node types.

author

String

No.

Value must be a valid userId.

Filter by creator user.

name

String

Yes.

 

Filter by node name.

keywords

Set<String>

Yes.

 

Filter by keywords.

categories

Set<String>

No.

Values should be categories UUID, not use path value.

Filter by categories.

content

  

Yes.

  

Filter by binary content.

mimeType

  

No.

Value should be a valid and registered MIME type.

Only can be applied to documents node.

 Filter by document MIME type.

path

  

No.

When empty is used by default "/okm:root" node.

Filter by a folder.

lastModifiedFrom

Calendar

No.

  

Filter by nodes created after a date.

lastModifiedTo

Calendar

No.

  

Filter by nodes creater before a date.

mailSubject

String

Yes.

Only apply to mail nodes.

Filter by mail subject field.

mailFrom

String

Yes.

Only apply to mail nodes.

 Filter by mail from field.

mailTo

  

Yes.

Only apply to mail nodes.

Filter by mail to field.

properties

Map<String, String>

Yes on almost.

On metadata field values like "date" can not be applied wilcards.

The map of the properties is composed of pairs:

('metadata_field_name','metada_field_value")

For example:

Map<String, String> properties = new HashMap();
properties.put("okp:consulting.name", "name value");

Filtering by range of dates:

Calendar to = Calendar.getInstance(); // today
to.set(0, Calendar.HOUR);
to.set(0, Calendar.MINUTE);
to.set(0, Calendar.SECOND);
to.set(0, Calendar.MILLISECOND);
Calendar from = (Calendar) to.clone();
from.add(-3, Calendar.DATE); // three days before
Map<String,String> properties = new HashMap<>();
properties.put("okp:consulting.date", ISO8601.formatBasic(from)+","+ISO8601.formatBasic(to));

When filtering by range of dates you must set both values ( from and to ), otherwise the filter will be ignored from OpenKM side.

To filtering by a metadata field of type multiple like this:

<select label="Multiple" name="okp:consulting.multiple" type="multiple">
  <option label="One" value="one"/>
  <option label="Two" value="two"/>
  <option label="Three" value="three" />
</select>

You should do:

properties.put("okp:consulting.multiple", "one;two");

Where "one" and "two" are valid values and character ";" is used as separator.

Filter by metadata group values.

The search operation is done only by AND logic.

Wildcard examples:

VariableExampleDescription

name

test*.html

Any document that start with characters "test" and ends with characters ".html"

name

test?.html

Any document that start with characters "test" followed by a single character and ends with characters ".html"

name

?test*

Any the documents where the first character doesn't matter, but is followed by the characters, "test".

findPaginated

Description:

MethodReturn valuesDescription

findPaginated(QueryParams queryParams, int offset, int limit)

ResultSet

Returns a list of paginated results filtered by the values of the queryParams parameter.

The parameter "limit" and "offset" allow you to retrieve just a portion of the results of a query.

  • The parameter "limit" is used to limit the number of results returned.
  • The parameter "offset" says to skip that many results before the beginning to return results.

For example if your query have 1000 results, but you only want to return the first 10, you should use these values:

  • limit=10
  • offset=0

Now supose you want to show the results from 11-20, you should use these values:

        String username = "okmAdmin";
        String password = "admin";
        OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host, username, password);
