Displaying details of documents

This Web Script will accept a string from a user, will search for documents with that name, and finally will display the details of all those documents.

How to do it...

1. 1. We will have to create new files for the Web Script, let's name this script as documentdetails.

2. 2. Open a text editor and create a new file with this code:

   <webscript>
   <shortname>Document Details</shortname>
   <description>Searches document(s) and displays details of all the documents.</description>
   <url>/com/infoaxon/docdetails</url>
   <format default="html"/>
   <authentication>user</authentication>
   <transaction>required</transaction>
   </webscript>
   

3. 3. Save the file with the name docdetails.get.desc.xml in the \tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\templates\webscripts\com\infoaxon folder. This is our Web Script descriptor file.

4. 4. Now we create the JavaScript controller file. Here is the code:

   function main()
