Transformations in a dockerized Alfresco

[narkuss]

Hi all,

We used to perform docx/pptx/xlsx to pdf transformations in Alfresco in versions earlier than 6.x.

Now, the contentService.transform(reader, writer) function is deprecated, as well as almost every function in this service.

I'm up to date with the changes done on Alfresco regarding transformations, they are going (and in fact they are in 6.2 version) to be externalised from the repository using T-engines.

So, how are we supposed to perform a transformation in java now? I couldn't find examples anywhere, I only found README's on how to create a new transformation engine.

Thanks in advance.

Take a look at

So now, there is no service to perform a transformation, but instead we have to call the corresponding /transform endpoint, is that right?
