Set Tag on folder name (custom folder model)

Jump to solution

Hi, i'm on Communty 6.2  for my office installation and i have set-up a main folder "Customers" in which there are N folders, one for each of these. I'm trying to make something like a "customer file" orgarnizzation.

Each customer folder is auto-changed to a custom model (Customer File) for refine the rules applied.

Currently i want to automatically add a tag on these special folders exactly the same as the folder name, and auto apply these tag to any document created/uploaded in the customer folder.

 

Customer (main folder)
|
|_customer A folder (custom model) with tag "customer a"
   |_file.docx (with tag "customer a")
   |_file.jpg (with tag "customer a")
   |_.......

 

Someone can help me in this script? I'm totally new to alfresco... thanks since now!

Thank you so much Sanjay for your help!

Using your script and another which i found here
https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-forum/when-using-an-execute-script-rule-how-ca...

 

i was to build two rules, one (your script) which auto generate a tag from the customer folder name (i applyed the rule just for the rist level, ignoring sub folder inside each customer.

After i applyed another rules, on each file which is NOT a folder (so i exclude to tag subfolder) with this script where it apply the tag based on the 5th folder name in the path (which is actually the customer name!):

 

var vCurrentFolder = " "
var vElementCount = 0
var pathArray = document.displayPath.split( '/' );
vElementCount = pathArray.length;
vElementCount = 6;
vCurrentFolder = pathArray[vElementCount];

if(document.isContainer){
    document.addTag(vCurrentFolder);
    document.save();
}else{
    document.addTag(vCurrentFolder);
    document.save();
}

Hi,

You can create rule on root folder.That rule is excute script where tag add code is wrriten in js file.

Excute that rule with applied to subfolder.

 

Code : 

if(document.isContainer){
    document.addTag(document.name);
    document.save();
}else{
    document.addTag(document.parent.name);
    document.save();
}
