liferay indexer hook

post processor indexer HookIndexer hook implements a post processing system on top of the existing indexer.

For example go to Users and Organizations and search based on type.

You wont get the result based on type.

To achieve this just follow the below steps.

Step 1 :

Create a liferay project and choose plugin type as hook and finish.

Step 2 :

Modify in liferay-hook.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<!DOCTYPE hook PUBLIC "-//Liferay//DTD Hook 6.1.0//EN" "http://www.liferay.com/dtd/liferay-hook_6_1_0.dtd">

<hook>

<indexer-post-processor>

<indexer-class-name>com.liferay.portal.model.Organization</indexer-class-name>

<indexer-post-processor-impl>com.javaeasyforu.MyCustomPostIndexer</indexer-post-processor-impl>

</indexer-post-processor>

</hook>

Step 3 :

create a package and java class

docroot/WEB-INF/src ---->create a class as MyCustomPostIndexer

package com.javaeasyforu;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.search.BaseIndexerPostProcessor;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.search.Document;

import com.liferay.portal.kernel.search.Field;

import com.liferay.portal.model.Organization;

public class MyCustomPostIndexer extends BaseIndexerPostProcessor

{

public void postProcessDocument(Document document, Object object)throws Exception {

Organization orgEntity = (Organization) object;

String indexerOrgTitle = null;

try

{

indexerOrgTitle = orgEntity.getType();

}

catch (Exception e)

{

e.printStackTrace();

}

if (indexerOrgTitle.length() > 0)

{

document.addText(Field.TITLE, indexerOrgTitle);

}

Step 4 : Right click on project and deploy

Now go to control panel and click on Users and Organizations

Step 5 :

Search for Type and see the result

Note : It will effect only for new and update records but not for existing records. So edit for some organization and check the result.

Key Point :

Eclipse is not opening properly

# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment

#

# SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f8e88aaa2a1, pid=7607, tid=140252668163840

Solution: After extracting eclipse you have file called config.ini inside configuration folder. Go there and add the below line at the end

org.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla

difference between hook and ext

Hook EXT

Hot Deployable Not Hot Deployable

No need to Restart the server Need to restart the server

Maintenance is Easy Maintenance is difficult

Not overriding code directly It will replace the code directly

Undoing is easy Undoing is difficult

Note : We can deploy only one ext plugin per Liferay installation.

Key Point : To avoid multiple submit in form submission when it got refresh give the below line in liferay-portlet.xml

<action-url-redirect>true</action-url-redirect>

Liferay Custom Icons

In Liferay Search Container if you want to call your own image you can define as

<liferay-ui:search-container-column-text name="Cancel">

<liferay-ui:icon image="my-custom-icon" src="/PortletName/images/cancel.png" />

</liferay-ui:search-container-column-text>

copy your image in images folder and provide the path.

Key Point : If you want to reuse your custom portlet more than one time please give the below line in liferay-portlet.xml

<instanceable>true</instanceable>

Get Children of Children in Liferay structures and templates

Children Levels(3 levels)

Sample Structure:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<root>

<dynamic-element name="level1" type="text" index-type="keyword" repeatable="true">

<dynamic-element name="level2" type="text" index-type="" repeatable="true">

<dynamic-element name="level3" type="text" index-type="" repeatable="false"/>

</dynamic-element>

</root>

Template:

#foreach($i in $level1.getSiblings())

#foreach($j in $i.level2.getSiblings())

#foreach($k in $j.level3.getSiblings())

$i.data

$j.data

$k.data

#end

Example:

output will display based on your input values.

For Example If input is

level1: Karthik

level2: Reddy

level3: M

Output in Webcontent Display:

Karthik

Reddy

M

Key Point : In liferay service builder if there is no primary key it will throw java.lang.RuntimeException there is no primary key for entity EntityName

liferay user related tables

If we create User in Liferay the following tables will effect in DB

Contact_

User_

Users_Roles

The above three tables will effect in Data Base once if we create User .

Along with these options we have some more options for user.

Table Name Options for User if we go to control panel

Address Addresses

Phone Phone Numbers

Website Websites

EmailAddress Additional Email Addresses

Contact_ Social Network

(facebookSn,twitterSn,mySpaceSn)

Contact_ sms

(smsSn)

User_ openId

(openId)

AnnouncementsDelivery Announcements

User_ DisplaySetting

(languageId, timeZoneId,greeting)

User_ Comments

(comments)

For Custom fields we have tables like ExpandoColumn, ExpandoRow, ExpandoTable and ExpandoValue.

Here if we have already custom fields we can give the values for those fields and save

Key Point : At what time table will create in liferay when we are using liferay service builder???

Once if we build the services all classes and interfaces will create but after deploying the portlet only the related table will create in DataBase

<runtime-portlet instance="4433" name="116" querystring=""> </runtime-portlet>

For Out of the box portlet Ids Please check in the below link

Out of the box portlets

116 (Out of the box portlet Id)--------> Activities

Key Points :

If we want to generate a finder for primary key in liferay service builder the return type should be an entity if return type is collection it will throw an error in persistance and util.java with error as Duplicate parameter columnName.
