[opencms-dev] OpenCms 8.5.1 - Add choice field programmatically

[Harald Brabenetz]

Hi,
I created a Helper class some times ago.

  XmlContentEditorHelper helper = new XmlContentEditorHelper(getCmsObject(), file, locale);
  helper.setValue("Content/Text", "TextMessage");
  helper.publish();

An example unittest is there:
http://bp-cms-commons.sourceforge.net/m2site/infonova/modules/at.infonova.opencms.modules.commons/1.0/xref-test/at/infonova/opencms/modules/commons/XmlContentEditorHelperTest.html#160

The OpenCms Zip and/or the JAR is in the sourceforge repository:
http://bp-cms-commons.sourceforge.net/m2repo/at/infonova/opencms/modules/at.infonova.opencms.modules.commons/1.0/

You can also copy the sources (it is only one file):
https://sourceforge.net/p/bp-cms-commons/code/1756/tree/opencms_commons/modules/at.infonova.opencms.modules.commons/trunk/src/main/java/at/infonova/opencms/modules/commons/XmlContentEditorHelper.java

I hope it helps.

with friendly regards,
Harald

> Hi all!!
> 
> Does anyone knows how to add an optional choice field to a xmlcontent?
> 
> I have a xpath like : Content/Text where Text is a choice field (It could be Image instead for example).
> 
> I used 
> if(xmlcontent.getValue("Content", locale, 0) == null){
> 	xmlcontent.addValue(cms, "Content", locale, 0);
> }
> if(xmlcontent.getValue("Content/Text", locale, 0) == null){
> 	xmlcontent.addValue(cms, "Content/Text", locale, 0);
> }
> But it has a strange behavior, sometimes it creates the field, sometimes it generates an error :
> org.opencms.main.CmsIllegalArgumentException: Unknown XML content element path "Content/Text".
> at org.opencms.xml.content.CmsXmlContent.addValue(CmsXmlContent.java:248)
