API Reference and Examples | Alfresco Developer Guide

JavaScript

As you learned in examples throughout the book, JavaScript is used in several different places across the Alfresco platform, particularly as one option for controller logic in web scripts. This section starts with a listing of the out of the box root JavaScript objects available to all scripts (except where noted), and then provides details for the rest of the JavaScript API.

Root Objects

The root objects available to your scripts are either utility objects or entry points into different areas of the JavaScript API. This section lists the root objects available and notes where further APIs exist. API details are provided in the next section, "JavaScript API".

Root Object	Description
`actions`	Entry point into the Actions API. Used to retrieve the list of actions configured in the repository or as a factory to retrieve an instance of an action.
`args`	Available when the script is run as a web script controller. Contains the arguments passed to the script.
`avm`	Entry point into the AVM API. Used to retrieve a list of all AVM stores, to search for a store based on ID, or to search for a specific node.
`cache`	Available when the script is run as a web script controller. The cache object is used to dynamically modify the cache settings for a web script.
`classification`	Entry point into the Classification API. Used to get and create root categories, or to get all category nodes for a classification.
`companyhome`	`ScriptNode` representing the Company Home folder.
`crossRepoCopy`	Utility object for copying nodes between the DM and AVM store (and vice-versa).
`document`	`ScriptNode` representing the document against which the script is running, if applicable. See `space`.
`logger`	Utility object for logging messages to the console.
`model`	Available when the script is run as a web script controller. The associative array used to pass data to the view.
`people`	Entry point into the People API, which is used to work with people and groups.
`person`	`ScriptNode` representing the current user executing the script.
`script`	`ScriptNode` representing the script being executed.
`search`	Entry point into the Search API, which can be used to execute Lucene searches, XPath searches, saved searches, and searches based on node reference.
`session`	Used to retrieve the ticket for the current user executing the script.
`space`	`ScriptNode` representing the space against which the script is running. See `document`. Note that `space` is available even when the script is running in the context of a document. In that case, the space returned is the enclosing folder.
`status`	Available when the script is run as a web script controller. Used to set the response code, error message, and redirect flag.
`userhome`	`ScriptNode` representing the home space of the current user executing the script.
`utils`	A generic utility object with commonly used functions.
`workflow`	Available in Labs only, this is the entry point into the Workflow API. It is used to get tasks, workflow definitions, and workflow instances. It can also be used to create workflow packages.

JavaScript API

The classes that implement the JavaScript root objects are in org.alfresco.repo.jscript. Much of the information in the tables within this section has been taken directly from the Alfresco Javadoc comments for the classes in that package.

Note

In this section, method names are listed as they appear in the underlying Java class. For getters and setters, this means the "get" or "set" is shown even though it is typically dropped in JavaScript. For example, document.tags and document.getTags() are equivalent.
