This is an excellent article! Thanks!
Sorry it took me so long to respond!

Browse All TopicsHello all... I'm feverishly trying to find a simple example of WebScripts or a Web Service client to demonstrate how I might be able to pull content out of Alfresco. Please see my Alfresco Forum thread: http://forums.alfresco.com
I'm not having difficulty finding examples, rather finding complete examples that walk me through "all" of the steps required to deploy "what" to "where". There are sooooooo many ways to skin a cat, and apparently so many ways to develop and deploy WebScripts to access content. I keep jumping from one example to the next, and the technology or approach is always so different that it requires a complete shift in thinking. Some are based on JavaScript, some Java, some use JSON, etc...
I'll settle for following the approach of any technology, as long as I can find some documentation to help me do a simple POC (HelloWorld) end-to-end (development-to-deployment
Any direction or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks and best regards,
Todd Peterson

if you google for: alfresco "web script" "hello world" you will find a number of answers from the alfresco wiki to regular developers, but here's what I consider to be the best one out there:

it's a pdf snippet from a Jeff Potts alfresco developer book. Jeff is the man when it comes to Alfresco community development. I'd suggest picking up his book if you want to get nice and intimate with Alfresco.
Let me know if this doesn't cut it for you!
