Any update on this? We have a project that might need this module and if so, could potentially be able to help with a port.

Is there an update on the status of this project? What if we had an interest in porting this to Drupal 8 for a client project and ended up needing to do it ourselves? Would that be desired or is too much work already being done?

Hi, sorry for my belated reply in this thread.

There are some people interested in having this module ported to Drupal 8. In my company we started to port it but the project was put on hold so sadly we haven't the opportunity to finish the job.

I think we should join efforts instead working separately. I have some contacts that probably will happy to help. How do you suggest we should move forward?

Same here, project was put on hold, so we currently have no use for it. We can get in touch with you if we end up needing the module, okay?

Just wondering how far along this port to Drupal 8 is?

There is an initial port, no routing configuration or compliant directory structure.
We're happy to collaborate

Hi,

we started last week complete rewriting this module.
Use this client to communication: https://github.com/dkd/php-cmis-client

To install it you need (temporary) to module vendor folder copy this client and dependency:
- in command line go to cmis module root folder (eg. modules/cmis or modules/contrib/cmis)
- call command: composer require "dkd/php-cmis": "^1.0"
- enable module
- go to admin/config/cmis/connection/cmis_connection_entity create new configuration
- browse it click to Browse link.

Field:
- add field to your content type eg. admin/structure/types/manage/page/fields
- set the created config to field eg. admin/structure/types/manage/page/form-display

Unfortunatelly no more is ready yet.

I hope it is a good start to porting this module to Drupal 8.

Regards!
Joe

HI,
Has the porting been completed? We are using drupal 8 to make a CMIS connection to alfresco. After adding the CMIS connection when i click on browse link,it goes to HTTP 500 internal server error with following exception thrown.

Got error 'PHP message: Uncaught PHP Exception Exception: "Php CMIS Client library is not properly installed." at /home/vcap/app/htdocs/modules/cmis/src/CmisConnectionApi.php line 94\n'.

Can you please suggest what to do.

I have successfully tested the connection between drupal 8 and alfresco 5. I am able to browse the contents/documents and view its properties. I can also create a document or delete. However i don't see the ability to edit the content. Can we edit alfresco content from within drupal? Can we update a document?

Is the porting to drupal 8 complete?

@udaikumar26 Please undo your last change. For support use the issue queue of the module itself. This issue is for the D8 port of the module.

remove-check-client-fix-get-content-stream-2608214-23.patch3.05 KB

Here is a patch against the 8.x-2.x branch that fixes the following two issues. With this patch on top of the 8.2-2.x branch, I was able to successfully upload and browse documents using the modal CMIS browser with both the remote public Alfresco server and a local lightweightCmisServer.

  1. CmisConnectionApi: With the upgrade on the 8.x-2.x branch to using the dev-master branch of the dkd/php-cmis-client repo, the checkClient() call is extraneous since both the php-cmis-client and drupal 8 use guzzle 6.
  2. CmisBrowser: The getDocument() method is incorrectly passing the document ID as the stream ID/rendition ID on the call to DocumentInterface::getContentStream(). If you look at the APIdoc for this call, the first parameter is optional and meant to be a rendition/stream id. The actual document id is passed on to Session::getContentStream() by passing $this as the first parameter inside DocumentInterface::getContentStream(). Since the intent here is to get a content stream by ID and not stream ID, it doesn't make sense to pass the document ID where the API is expecting a stream ID. Internally, it causes the streamId query parameter to be added to the generate URL to access the document but since no such rendition exists, the GET fails.

Hi, Has the porting being completed?
If not then is there any alternate way to establish CMIS connection between Drupal 8.7 and Alfresco 6.2 GA in a dockerized installation?
