Find the subfolders by folder ID and read the files in ELO

By Hường Hana 11:30 PM Leave a Comment

This should be done in C #

My ELO hierarchy looks like this. enter image description here

The folder FOLDER2 contains a text document. This is searched for and the object ID is returned. From this I get also the object ID "1234" for the FOLDER2. enter image description here

Now there is in the folder TEXTFILES important text documents I would like to download. enter image description here

Now to my question, if I have the object ID of FOLDER2, how can I find out which object ID of the folder TEXTFILES has to read out all data or download it there?

EditInfo ed = conn.Ix.checkoutDoc(pObjID, pDocID, EditInfoC.mbDocument, LockC.NO);                 DocVersion dv = ed.document.docs[0];                 String outFile = System.IO.Path.GetTempFileName() + "." + dv.ext;                 conn.Download(dv.url, outFile);                 String url = dv.url;

Here is the code on how to download a file. There are the methods dv.relativeFilePath, dv.physPath so I could read the path to end up simply ELO / FOLDER1 / FOLDER2 / TEXTFILES could attach to the path to download the files

I was not able to find any official public documentation on your ELO API. I even not sure what the ELO stands for except that there is an "Indexserver Programming Guide" e-book offered at https://www.elo.com/wcm/en/service/elo-e-books If you can provide such a link, we (the SO community) probably will be able to answer your question better.

The only API reference I found that seems to match your short code example is Java API (unoficially) published at http://datigapowa.free.fr/javadoc8.00.036/. I assume that C# API is quite similar to the Java one described there and it looks like your conn.Ix is of type that matches for IXServicePortIF class as described at http://datigapowa.free.fr/javadoc8.00.036/de/elo/ix/client/IXServicePortIF.html. At least according to http://datigapowa.free.fr/javadoc8.00.036/index-all.html this is the only class that has checkoutDoc(ClientInfo, String, String, EditInfoZ, LockZ) method.

So looking into IXServicePortIF you may find interesting methods findFirstSords(ClientInfo ci, FindInfo findInfo, int max, SordZ sordZ), findNextSords(ClientInfo ci, java.lang.String searchId, int idx, int max, SordZ sordZ) and mysterious processFindResult(ClientInfo ci, java.lang.String searchId, ProcessInfo procInfo). The findFirstSords accepts a parameter of FindInfo class which in turn has a parameter of FindChildren class and it seems to be responsible for search through folders.

On the other hand, return value of the findFirstSords is FindResult which contains

  • a collection of plain string ids
  • a collection of Sord which in turn features a few potentially interestings "IDs" such as just id and doc

some of which is might be what you need.

Note also that "See also" section of findFirstSords documentation references some examples including C# one called FindChildren.cs.txt

Hope this helps.
