Folder samples

Basics

On most methods you'll see parameter named "fldId". The value of this parameter can be some valid folder UUID or path.

Example of fldId:

  • Using UUID -> "f123a950-0329-4d62-8328-0ff500fd42db";
  • Using path -> "/okm:root/test"

Methods

createFolder

Description:

MethodReturn valuesDescription

createFolder(Folder fld)

Folder

Creates a new folder and returns as a result an object Folder.

The variable path into the parameter fld, must be initializated. It indicates the folder path into OpenKM.

Folder fld = new Folder();
fld.setPath("/okm:root/test");

The other variables of Folder ( fld ) will not take any effect on folder creation.

We suggest using the method below to create FolderSimple rather this one.

Example:

package com.openkm;

import com.openkm.sdk4j.OKMWebservices;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.OKMWebservicesFactory;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.bean.Folder;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String host = "http://localhost:8080/OpenKM";
        String username = "okmAdmin";
        String password = "admin";
        OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host, username, password);
        
        try {
            Folder fld = new Folder();
            fld.setPath("/okm:root/test");
            ws.createFolder(fld);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

purgeFolder

Description:

MethodReturn valuesDescription

purgeFolder(String fldId)

void

The folder is definitely removed from the repository.

Usually, you will purge folders into /okm:trash/userId - the personal trash user locations - but it is possible to directly purge any folder from the whole repository.

When a folder is purged, it will only be able to be restored from a previously repository backup. The purge action removes the folder definitely from the repository.

Example:

package com.openkm;

import com.openkm.sdk4j.OKMWebservices;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.OKMWebservicesFactory;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String host = "http://localhost:8080/OpenKM";
        String username = "okmAdmin";
        String password = "admin";
        OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host, username, password);
        
        try {
            ws.purgeFolder("/okm:trash/okmAdmin/test");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

createMissingFolders

Description:

MethodReturn valuesDescription

createMissingFolders(String fldPath)

void

Create missing folders.

Example:

package com.openkm;

import com.openkm.sdk4j.OKMWebservices;
import com.openkm.sdk4j.OKMWebservicesFactory;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String host = "http://localhost:8080/OpenKM";
        String username = "okmAdmin";
        String password = "admin";
        OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host, username, password);        
        try {
            ws.createMissingFolders("/okm:root/missingfld1/missingfld2/missingfld3");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
