Basic concepts
Authentication
First, you must create the webservice object:
OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host);
Then you should log in using the method "login". You can access the "login" method from the webservice object "ws" as shown below:
ws.login(user, password);Once you are logged in with the webservices, the session is kept in the webservice object. Then you can use the other API methods.
At this point you can use all the Repository methods from "repository" class as shown below:
ws.repository.getAppVersion();using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using com.openkm.sdk4csharp;
using com.openkm.sdk4csharp.exception;
using com.openkm.sdk4csharp.impl;
namespace OKMRest
{
public class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
String host = "http://localhost:8080/openkm";
String username = "okmAdmin";
String password = "admin";
OKMWebservice ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host);
try {
ws.login(user, password);
System.Console.WriteLine(ws.repository.getAppVersion().getVersion());
} catch (RepositoryException e) {
System.Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());
} catch (DatabaseException e) {
System.Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());
} catch (UnknowException e) {
System.Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());
} catch (WebserviceException e) {
System.Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());
}
System.Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}Accessing API
OpenKM API classes are under com.openkm package, as shown in this javadoc API summary.
At the main URL http://docs.openkm.com/javadoc/ you'll see all available Javadoc documentation.
At the time of writing this page, the current OpenKM version was 7.1.5, which may change over time.
There is a direct correspondence between the classes and methods implemented in the com.openkm.api packages and those available from the SDK for .NET.
