Synopsis

Alfresco Developer Guide walks you through the customizations made as part of an enterprise-wide rollout of Alfresco; from custom actions to RESTful web scripts and everything in between. Jeff Potts, Optaros' ECM Practice Director, blogger, and Alfresco's Community Contributor of the Year, takes you step-by-step through advanced customization examples. Whether it is customizing Alfresco's web client or creating your own application that interact with Alfresco via RESTful web scripts, it is all covered here.This book will be most useful to developers who are writing code to customize Alfresco for their organization or who are creating custom applications that sit on top of Alfresco.This book is for Java developers, and you will get most from the book if you already work with Java but you need not have prior experience on Alfresco. Although Alfresco makes heavy use of open source frameworks such as Spring, Hibernate, JavaServer Faces, and Lucene, no prior experience using these is assumed or necessary.
