Binding the adf-webscript-get component into a button

[rsocorro]

Is there a way to bind the adf-webscript-get component into a button that is in a dropdown? Because right now the calling of the webscript is happening on page reload, and what I want to do is run that when the button is clicked. Cheers!

        <span>Google Docs Document...</span>

Hi, what the webscript does :

alfresco-ng2-components/webscript.component.ts at development · Alfresco/alfresco-ng2-components · G... 

you could associate the same call at on whatever onClick event of your app

[rohit9637]

As Eugenio Romano‌ said you can web script on an onClick event of your app.

You can call custom web script by executeWebScript() refer this for detail:- GitHub - Alfresco/alfresco-js-api at master

one more question Eugenio Romano‌, because I'm using a webscript to create a Google Docs, is there a way to change/construct where the Google Docs is being created? Like for instance if I want to create it inside a folder? because right now it is by default getting created in the documentLibrary folder even if I try to create it somewhere else. Thanks!

I guess it depends from your webscript that actually I don't know wht it does inside. I guess I need more context 

[rsocorro]

scriptPathDocs: string = 'googledocs/createContent?contenttype=document&parent=workspace://SpacesStore/8f2105b4-daaf-4874-9e8a-2152569d109b';

Ahh got it now, in my scriptPathDocs, it has the folder documentLibrary value by default in it. Now, how will I approach this if I want the document to be created in a specific location?

[eugenio_romano]

yes you need to change it 

[eugenio_romano]

i guess you need to pass a parameter to it but for the webbscript the ECM part of the community portal can help you better

kinda solved it by doing this by changing the scriptPathDocs, from documentLibrary folder to repository/root/Company Home folder,

scriptPathDocs: string = 'googledocs/createContent?contenttype=document&parent=workspace://SpacesStore/cd49a7d6-8e38-487f-8af4-9fed5027c8c9';

onGoogleDocsCreate() {

    this.scriptPathDocs = 'googledocs/createContent?contenttype=document&parent=workspace://SpacesStore/' + this.documentList.currentFolderId;

    this.apiService.getInstance().webScript.executeWebScript('GET', this.scripPathDocs, this.scriptArgs, this.contextRoot, this.servicePath).then((webScriptdata) => {

    this.data = webScriptdata;

    this.documentList.reload();

});

}

I am able to create a google document in any folder except in the repository/root/Company Home location. and this is the error I'm getting.
