I have created two new Maven modules:

- Alfresco Connector
- Integration Tests for Alfresco Connectors (under tests/)

I started to import all the dependencies and now I have to check potential 
conflicts with the current ManifoldCF libraries.

Rather than checking in directly to trunk, could you first create a branch 
(branches/CONNECTORS-287) so that the rest of us can review your new connector 
and the new libraries you are including for it to work with?  Otherwise it's 
going to be hard for you to test everything since you probably don't have a 
complete environment.

A first implementation is finished and it is compatible with Alfresco 2.x,3.x 
and 4.x.
I would like to check compatibility with Alfresco 1.x and I have to finish the 
integration tests module.

Now I can create and start with Jetty any Alfresco version from 3.x. directly 
configuring Maven.
This night I hope to finish the integration test implementation to customize 
the Jetty runner.

The first version of the Alfresco Connector now is committed.

I have to finish the following tasks:

* solve an issue about packaging the Alfresco war using its own Maven module 
(now the Alfresco war module is not directly used by the Alfresco Test module)

* fix the execution of the integration test adding memory settings from Maven: 
I tested executing the IT by Java directly from Eclipse and adding memory 
settings from the IDE

* add a new library to the project the H2 database support for Alfresco

* update the documentation about how to build and deploy to add a couple of new 
libraries to manually add in the Maven repo

I hope the next week to solve all these issues.

Anyway the connector should work on all the versions of Alfresco and now 
supports only the Lucene Query as the unique job parameter.

Committed a new version of the integration test module with the following 
updates:

- added some libraries: h2-support and jetty-naming
- Maven build fixed: now the integration tests for the Alfresco Connector works 
correctly
- the alfresco-war module now correctly works and it is called before running 
integration test

To be clear, have a look at the LICENSE.txt file for an idea of the information 
we need for code that we redistribute.  Only certain licenses can be 
redistributed, according to Apache policy.  Those are:

- Apache licensed
- Berkeley license
- MIT license
- Eclipse license

Licenses we CAN'T redistribute include:

- LGPL
- GPL

Anything not mentioned here requires a ruling from Apache Legal, OR you need to 
find it in another Apache project and ask why they think it is redistributable. 
 For example, I got a ruling for the JSON license, which is a derivative of the 
Berkeley license.

Hope this helps.

Here some updates:
- fixed the Alfresco Connector: now can extract binaries from custom content 
models
- fixed the integration test implementation: now the execution works
- now integration tests can be executed correctly

I have to finish the following tasks:

* check / ask licenses for all the new dependencies of the Alfresco Web 
Services API (that are included in the Alfresco SDK)
* check / ask for the h2-support license
* update the site documentation about Maven install for dependencies
* create the site documentation for the new connector

according to [1] software under :
- CDDL may be included in binary form within an Apache product if the inclusion 
is appropriately labeled
- CPL 1.0 may be included in binary form within an Apache product if the 
inclusion is appropriately labeled
- Apache is obviously ok

so I think we're ok with regards to Alfresco WebServices Client as long as we 
highlight the CDDL and CPL pieces in the NOTICE file.

Carlo Sciolla has released the h2-support-1.1.jar under MIT/X11 license [1]
This dependency is available on Clojars [2] and we can add a standard Maven 
dependency without manually installation.

I would like to thank Carlo for his support that was very important to create 
integration tests for this connector :)

For the Alfresco Web Service Client (alfresco-web-service-client-x.x.jar) we 
have a problem because it is released under LGPL3 as mentioned in the Alfresco 
wiki [3] and in the license.txt file in the Alfresco SDK distribution. 

I think this means that we have to say to users to download separately this 
artifact.
Or could we create a script that automatically can download it from remote 
repositories?
I mean, in the same way integration tests do to create the alfresco.war using 
Maven.

Taking a look at the paragraph "We license our product under other licenses 
upon request.", probably we could ask to release the Alfresco Web Service 
Client under a different license [1].

[1] 
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Open_Source_Licensing#We_license_our_product_under_other_licenses_upon_request.

I'll try to ask them about this.

If there is a download required, it's not the end of the world - we already 
have infrastructure for doing that in both the maven and ant builds.  Is it in 
the maven repository?

Yesterday night I found only a version of this artifact that was uploaded in 
the official Alfresco Maven repo, I think yesterday. 

But it is the stub client for Alfresco 3.4.e. This artifact is available only 
for this version.
I could try to use this Alfresco version for integration tests and if it is ok 
we could solve this last issue.

Alternatively, if you have a download URL that's not in the maven repository 
for the right web-service client, we can use that url in the 
download-dependencies phase of the ant build, and modify the mvn-bootstrap 
scripts to push it into maven's local repository.

I tested the dependency available on the Alfresco Maven repo and integration

So I think that we have solved this last issue.

Solved and committed the correct configuration, I think that now we can say 
that there is an Alfresco Connector for ManifoldCF :D

I updated poms and Ant scripts to enable the automatic download of the Alfresco 
dependency from the Alfresco Maven repo.

Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-287:


I tried to build here and failed.  The reason is that the build target tries to 
automatically download stuff and I am behind a firewall:

download-alfresco-ws-client:
[mkdir] Created dir: C:\wip\mcf\CONNECTORS-287\connectors\alfresco\dist\lib
  [get] Getting: http://maven.alfresco.com/nexus/service/local/repositories/
releases/content/org/alfresco/alfresco-web-service-client/3.4.e/alfresco-web-ser
vice-client-3.4.e.jar
  [get] To: C:\wip\mcf\CONNECTORS-287\connectors\alfresco\lib\alfresco-web-s
ervice-client-3.4.e.jar

The download-dependencies ant target exists precisely for this reason, so that 
the download can be done independently of the build.  Thus I think you will 
need to do the following, modeled loosely on the jcifs connector:

(1) Create a directory under connectors/alfresco which is meant to contain the 
stuff that will be downloaded;
(2) Make the compilation of the alfresco connector conditional on the existence 
of the right jars in that directory;
(3) Hook up the download to the download-dependencies target in the alfresco 
build.xml.

Ok, thank you!

But now I don't see the alfresco-web-service dependency inside the 
connector-lib of the example application. 
Is it right?

Before I tested the script and the library was correctly copied in the 
connector-lib folder.

I changed the ant build to copy it to the alfresco/dist/lib directory, along 
with all the jars in alfresco/lib.  So I believe it is correct - but I won't 
have a chance to be certain until I am outside the firewall.

I updated Ant scripts dedicated to the example application: now the 
alfresco-web-service dependency is correctly copied in the connector-lib

I think that now we have solved all the issues.

This caused a blank screen to come back from the view connection page.

So I recommend the following:

(1) Since it seems like you need to enter a URL for the "endpoint" field, you 
might want to consider requesting a protocol, server, port, and path instead of 
a free-form URL.  This will guarantee that the URL you construct will be valid.

(2) You should be catching any exceptions thrown by the API methods.  I'm not 
quite sure how you are getting something thrown that is not being caught, 
unless the exception thrown is derived from RuntimeException or Error.  In any 
case you will need to figure out how to correctly catch and handle whatever 
exceptions can be thrown by the API, and convert or wrap these in ManifoldCF 
exceptions.

I also included a placeholder README.txt file in the download directory.  This 
is necessary for two reasons: (1) to insure that when the directory is zipped 
it doesn't just disappear, and (2) to tell the user how to get the appropriate 
missing jars.  The file I put there should be completed before we merge.

(1) Since it seems like you need to enter a URL for the "endpoint" field, you 
might want to consider requesting a protocol, server, port, and path instead of 
a free-form URL. Pick the protocol from a drop-down, and use javascript to 
check that the server has no "/" characters and the port is either blank or a 
number. This will guarantee that the URL you construct will be valid.

Ok I can work on this improvement during this week.

I solved the second issue: I added the exception handling for the 
WebServiceException thrown by the Afresco Web Services API.

Tomorrow I hope to spend some time on the improvement of the configuration form 
as you suggested.

I also solved the first point: fixed the configuration for the Alfresco 
Repository Connector. 
I added protocol, server, port, and path instead of a free-form URL for the 
endpoint.

I think that now integration tests are broken, because I changed the

Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-287:


I just tried the new connector, built with ant.  It does not have a tab for the 
connector-specific configuration anymore, but instead just displays the 
alfresco configuration data as a suffix for all of the other tabs.  I don't 
think this is a good idea.  Can you fix this?

Second comment...  If a port or path is left blank, then the connector should 
use standard alfresco default values for these, or better yet, just start with 
the defaults filled in so people know what is typically used.

Os, I'll try to reproduce these issues and I hope to solve all this night.

I think that there are issues because probably I have to reset my ManifoldCF 
installation. 
I will work on a clean installation to re-check the connector. 

Anyway I had planned to test it tonight in a clean way.

I just tried the new connector, built with ant. It does not have a tab for the 
connector-specific configuration anymore, but instead just displays the 
alfresco configuration data as a suffix for all of the other tabs. I don't 
think this is a good idea. Can you fix this?
{quote}
I just tried to replicate this issue but without any result, could you please 
guide me on this?

{quote}
Second comment... If a port or path is left blank, then the connector should 
use standard alfresco default values for these, or better yet, just start with 
the defaults filled in so people know what is typically used.
{quote}
Done with the latest commit :)

Hmm.  I wonder if you are missing a file or resource in the commit or in the 
ant build?  It is pretty obvious here!
I'm going to do a fresh checkout and build and then if it still happens for me 
I'll attach a screen shot.

Attaching a screen shot...  Note: (1) There is no specific tab for 
Alfresco-related configuration information, and (2) ALL tabs have the 
Alfresco-related configuration information. (Screen shot is of the "Type" tab, 
but all of them have it).

Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-287:


I did a trial merge, and the LICENSE/NOTICE/README files are still not updated 
in the branch.  They need to cover the following:

Alib\h2-support-1.1.jar
Alib\mail.jar
Alib\wss4j-1.5.4-patched.jar
Alib\jetty-plus-6.1.26.jar
Alib\opensaml-1.0.1.jar
Alib\h2-1.3.158.jar
Alib\xmlsec-1.4.1.jar
Alib\jetty-naming-6.1.26.jar

The necessary license research has been done but the files need to be updated 
accordingly.  I'll tackle this in the merge branch sometime this evening.

Other than that everything looks good for a merge commit.  Any objection if I 
handle that?
