Alfresco Developer Guide helps customize Alfresco with
actions, web scripts, web forms, workflows, and more. Alfresco is an open
source platform for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions. ECM includes
things like Document Management, Web Content Management,
Collaboration/Enterprise 2.0, Digital Asset Management, Records Management, and
Imaging. At its core is a repository for rich content like documents, web assets,
XML, and multimedia. The repository is surrounded by a services layer
(supporting both SOAP and REST) that makes getting content into and out of the
repository a breeze, which is why so many next generation Internet solutions
are built on Alfresco.Implementing Alfresco usually involves extending the
repository to accommodate your business-specific metadata and business logic.
These extensions are done using some combination of Java, JavaScript, XML, and
FreeMarker. This book takes you through a set of exercises as if you were
rolling out and customizing the platform for a fictional organization called
SomeCo, which wants to roll out Alfresco enterprise-wide. This book will give
you the knowledge and confidence you need to make Alfresco do what you need it
to do.
