Open Source Document Management System | OpenKM

Hi, I have one more question. After scanning or uploading in the certain folder document gets the same permissions that folder has. I am using workflow which automatically starts after upload or scan . In that workflow I am revoking permissions to every user except the user who did that upload. This might be a problem if user refreshes page after upload (when run_config starts), because workflow will not be executed and document will remain visible for other users. Is there a way to change this, so document can be seen only by the user who did the upload without running the workflow?

You should capture user from session and take it in consideration in your logic.

Ok, but how can I get to that if user refreshes page after upload before workflow wizard starts (before user enters data on run_config and clicks accept)?

You should take control it, not in worflow, you should control if document creation -> at post ( after creation ) with scripting, have a look http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Automation and http://wiki.openkm.com/index.php/Scripting_-_OpenKM_6.2

The idea is take control of security during document creation ( post creation ) and not into workflow logic.

OK, but what if user needs to enter some paramethers which are important (and mandatory) for that document, right after upload?
For example document type or assigned user. I know that user can insert it after whole upload is done, by changing related metadata or permissions, but how to make sure he really does that?

As much as I remember workflow can not be run if there is even automation definition. Is there an easy way to change this?

I have another idea. Can you tell me the class in the source code where permissions are granted after upload?

Should take a look at DBDocumentModule.java but I think is not good idea change internal implementation. I continue thinking that Automation is right way to do it. And about automation and workflow, there's no limitation on start a workflow together.

I found it here:

"2- When you enable automation wizards are disabled. Actually from comunity version should be made some modification to set the wizards flags from automation."

"And second, how can I disable automation to be able to test the wizard? At the moment the wizard does not show up since I previously enabled automation."

"Is not possible to disable, you should delete all automation entries to disable. I think logic to switch profile wizard is based on looking for if it's present some automation definition, not any automation defitinion ( you can try disable all automation entries, but I'm not sure it going right )."

Are there any changes about this?

I solved it using DBDocumentModule (or to be more precise using BaseDocumentModule). It would be good if I could do it with automation, but anyway tnx a lot!

Next release will come with extended extension support.
