RE: how to get the path of a created folder, or for an objectId?

[Florian Müller]

Hi Nicu,

Are you taking about the client or the server side?
Here is an answer for the client side.
getObject returns a CmisObject. Use instanceof to determine if it is a 
Document object or a Folder object and then cast to Document or Folder.


Here is a generic way to retrieve the path:

String path = null;
CmisObject obj = session.getObject("1234567890");

if(obj instanceof FileableCmisObject) {
  FileableCmisObject fobj = (FileableCmisObject) obj;
  List<String> paths = fobj.getPaths();
  if(!paths.isEmpty()) {
    path = paths.get(0);
  }
}

Hi Nicu,

it would be very helpful if you would provide a little bit more
informations. What kind of client library do you use? Java? Python?
PHP?
.Net? Objective-C?

And the version would also be helpful to answer your question(s).

Best regards

Till

Hi,

I need a way to determine the path of an objectId when it is a file or 
a folder. Do you know any?
I do not know why getObjectById returns an implementation of just 
ObjectId and not Fileable or Folder, when applicable.
I have a recursive function to create folders, and I would need to 
debug the paths of the folders.
But in order to be efficient I use object ids rather than string paths 
(I also do not use caching).
Please advise,

Thanks,
Nicu
