Oracle WebCenter Spaces Governance

 

Oracle WebCenter Space allows creation of Collaboratives areas. As it’s very easy to create a WorkSpace, it’s common to observe a workspace proliferation. So, it can be useful to check  the activity inside each of Spacers, and decide if it has to be archived depending the audience.

This post explains how to setup a very simple diagram which provides, inside WebCenter Space, an overall activity statistics for a given Workspace.The idea relies on the fact that activity is recorded in database Table.

Prerequisites

  • Oracle WebCenter Spaces is already installed
  • The schema which contains Spaces metadata is : DEV_WEBCENTER (or an other name) and the password must be known.

Steps

  • Create the following objects in DEV_WEBCENTER schema, with sqlplus or a similar tool

create type ext_array as table of number;

create function
  ext_gen_numbers(n in number default null)
  return ext_array
  PIPELINED
  as
  begin
     for i in 1 .. nvl(n,999999999)
     loop
         pipe row(i);
     end loop;
     return;
  end;

  • Create a diagramm with omniportlet tool (it’s a generic portlet which allows to create diagrams or lists based on SQL statements, XML, etc)

Along the wizzard, choose a SQL source, then enter the following statement:

select to_char(B.ti,'Month YY') month, nvl(A.nb,0) nb from (
select trunc(activity_time,'MONTH') ti, count(*) nb
from WC_SPACE_HEADER S,
WC_AS_ACTIVITY_ELEMENT A
where S.DISPLAY_NAME='ODrink'
group by trunc(activity_time,'MONTH')
) A,
(
select add_months(trunc(sysdate,'MONTH'),-column_value+1) ti
  from TABLE(ext_gen_numbers(12))
) B
where A.ti(+) = B.ti
order by B.ti

In the Layout tab, choose Line displaying:

After validating, this is the result which can be easily obtained:

By instancing the omniportlet multiple time, one can setup a complet dashboard: The following SQL provides Page activity for all the spaces (only three in our sample, but it’s just a demo):

select display_name, count(*) nb
from WC_SPACE_HEADER S,
WC_AS_ACTIVITY_ELEMENT A
where A.SCOPE_ID = S.SPACE_GUID and
service_id like 'oracle.webcenter.page%'
group by display_name, service_id

Oracle Documents Cloud Service - Using Upload File REST API

If the Upload File sample given in ODCS documentation is used "as is", we get a http 400 error. The syntax is strict and every blank line must be empty (no space character for instance). If we cust and paste the sample, there are residual space characters which must be removed. So, use this pattern instead: -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="jsonInputParameters" { "parentID": " " } -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="primaryFile"; filename="example.txt" Content-Type: text/plain Hello World! -----1234567890-- instead the original one: -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="jsonInputParameters" { "parentID":"FB4CD874EF94CD2CC1B60B72T0000000000100000001" } -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="primaryFile"; filename="example.txt" Content-Type: text/plain -----1234567890-- Tests can be...

Test with a simple SP provided with SimplePHPphp. Don't forget to un-comment the  example-userpass ! Export the metadata in a XML file At the Cloud Service level Import the previous metadata file Accept default values and don't change anything. At the IDP server level:  Follow documentation Servive Provider Quickstart Update the config/authsources.php with infos provided in the parameter pages (entity Id) EntityID value must be the sam...

Activating OmniPortlet with Oracle WebCenter

in a fresh install of Oracle WebCenter, the OmniPortlet is deployed but not registered as a portlet producer. As mentioned in the documentation, it’s needed to do some extra setup either with the Fusion Middleware Control or with a WLST script. This post explains how to use the first option. Let’s suppose that the administration port is : 7001. Use a web browser for connecting to the Fusion Middleware control (Remark: it’s not the WebLogic console !) http:<hostname>:7001/em Connect as weblogic (or an account with administrative privileges) Choose Register Producer option in the WebCenter menu In the URL endpoint field, enter: http://<hostname>:7001/portalTools/omniPortlet/providers/omniPortlet In most of case, it will be useful to restart all webCenter, in order to see the new portlet displayed in the catalog (under Portlets folder) In order to  see the already registered portlets, choose Service Configuration
