[opencms-dev] How to get XML Content Types to show in list?

[Jonathan Woods]

I don't think so, no - opencms-modules.xml is only accessible through real
filespace, and not mapped into the VFS at all.

Once you get your access, here are the changes you'll need to make to
opencms-modules.xml.  Restart the server for the changes to take effect, and
keep an eye on the log (<path.to.opencms.webapp>/WEB-INF/logs/opencms.log)
for information about what's going wrong, if anything.

1.  Within the <resourcetypes> node, add this (for an example type
'article'):

		<type
class="org.opencms.file.types.CmsResourceTypeXmlContent" name="article"
id="80">
			<properties>
				<property>
					<!-- Determines behaviour of editor
in outputting contents -->
					<name>content-conversion</name>
					<value type="shared">
						<![CDATA[cleanup;xhtml]]>
					</value>
				</property>
				<property>
					<!--	This property is set to
define the JSP used to render the resource when it's invoked by an incoming
request. -->
					<name>template-elements</name>
					<value type="shared">
	
<![CDATA[/system/modules/your.module.folder.name.here/template-elements/arti
cle.jsp]]>
					</value>
				</property>
			</properties>
			<copy-resources />
			<param
name="schema">/system/modules/your.module.folder.name.here/schemas/article.x
sd</param>
		</type> 

Make sure the id value (here 80) is unique within this file, and that you've
got all the filepaths, file names etc completely right.

2.  Witin the <explorertypes> node, add this:

		<explorertypes>
			<!-- <scintillance:comment>
				It seems that the icon referred to in the
attribute in the following element must be placed in
				/system/workplace/explorer/filetypes, and
it's not possible to specify an absolute path.  May have
				changed in recent OpenCms versions, but that
seemed to be the case for 6.0.x.
				</scintillance:comment>
			-->
			<explorertype name="article" key="fileicon.article"
icon="article.gif" reference="xmlcontent">
				<newresource page="structurecontent"
uri="newresource_xmlcontent.jsp?newresourcetype=article"
autosetnavigation="false" autosettitle="false" order="54" />
				<accesscontrol>
					<accessentry
principal="GROUP.Administrators" permissions="+r+v+w+c" />
					<accessentry
principal="GROUP.Projectmanagers" permissions="+r+v+w+c" />
					<accessentry principal="GROUP.Users"
permissions="+r+v+w+c" />
				</accesscontrol>
			</explorertype>

Again, make sure the paths are all OK, and in particular replace all
instances of 'article' with 'your.content.type.name'.

Hope this helps.

Jon

Can that file be edited without back end server access?
