"AuditShare" for Alfresco

AuditShare is an extension totally integrated into the Share UI accessible by administrators and site managers.
This app displays sites and repository usage info: number of created/read/updated/deleted documents displayed by day/week/month/year.
In sites, others informations are "audited" concerning wiki, blog and discussions components but also users connected and sites volumetry.

Works with:

Alfresco Enterprise 4.2.x, 5.0.x, 5.1.x, 5.2.x, 6.1.X, 6.2.x, 7.0.x, 7.1.X, 7.2.X, 7.3.X, 7.4.X, 23.1.X (works on Community versions)

Building the module

Check out the project if you have not already done so

    git clone https://github.com/atolcd/alfresco-audit-share.git

Maven build scripts are provided to build AMP files containing the custom files.
Before building, ensure you have correctly configured repositories in the parent pom.xml and docker-compose.yml files (alfresco-public for Community, alfresco-private-repository for Enterprise).

To build AMP files, run the following command from the base project directory:

    mvn clean package

Installing the module

This extension is a standard Alfresco Module, so experienced users can skip these steps and proceed as usual.

Stop Alfresco

Use the Alfresco Module Management Tool to install the modules in your Alfresco and Share WAR files:

 java -jar alfresco-mmt.jar install com.atolcd.alfresco.auditshare-XXX-repo-X.X.X.amp $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/alfresco.war -force
 java -jar alfresco-mmt.jar install com.atolcd.alfresco.auditshare-XXX-share-X.X.X.amp $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/share.war -force

Delete the $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/alfresco/ and $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/share/ folders.
Caution: please ensure you do not have unsaved custom files in the webapp folders before deleting.
Start Alfresco

Inside the project, you will find the run.bat and run.sh scripts. These are convenience scripts to quickly compile / test / run the project. In the terminal window, use:

./run.sh build_start for Mac OS X or Linux.
run.bat build_start for Windows.

If this is the first time you are doing this, it will take a while for Maven to download all the required dependencies and for Docker to download all the required images.

For more information about how to work with SDK project, see the online documentation.
