Document Library Hooks Migration

Less Than a Minute Read

A few months ago Minhchau created a migration tool to move document library files from using one hook to another (e.g., JCRHook to AdvancedFileSystemHook).  He showed the code for it and wrote several plugins to handle this.  Due to popular request, this has now been moved into trunk!  I just checked in the code to help facilitate a move from one hook to another.

Wow so, with 5.3, can we use Alfresco for Doument managament as repository (Instead of Jackrabbit?)

@Denis

You would need to use Alfresco via a hook. Since Alfresco supports JCR, you can conceivably use the JCRHook and configure it for Alfresco (this, I have not tested).

Alternatively, Alfresco supports CMIS and just made a release with 1.0 support. Trunk as of right now supports 0.61 CMIS, but I will be updating it shortly to support 1.0. So, by 5.3, you should be able to use Alfresco via CMISHook.

Hi Alex, "convert-legacy-permission-algorithm" is missing in the section Data Migration. Are you planning to bring it back? Thanks.

Hey Jonas,

Good catch. But, it is actually there. emoticon

The thing is that it auto-detects if you are using a legacy permission algorithm before showing it under "Data Migration." Since I am running Liferay with algorithm 6, it doesn't show it. But if you set your algorithm to, say 2 or 5, it will.

The issue I mentioned was closed (http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-12109) yesterday, but NO file from the document library will be convert. So all of them are lost.
This issue can't be fixed/closed.
