Need javascript sample code for XML parsing

[jpbuttet]

Hello all,

I just posted this in the ADF Forum forum but I am not sure this was the right place. I think this forum is more appropriate. Again my post:

My goal is to write, by using the share javascript console, a javascript file that can be fired by a share folder rule. When fired the javascript program would retrieve some information within a XML file,  Writing a folder rule is not a problem for me.

I am just struggling to find a very basic XML parsing  javascript sample code that is applicable to my environment  and that I could study, play with and use as good starting point for my needs.

I found that excellent link but could not find what I need:

https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-hub/javascript-api-cookbook/ba-p/293260#toc-hI...

Any explanation , sample code  or link would be much appreciated.

Any book recommandation about that matter would be also appreciated.

PS: I run a dockerized Alfresco:

Alfresco Share v6.1.0

(rfc7f986e4267e4e4d9c7572b73ab200a6a578c93-b6, Aikau 1.0.101.16, Spring Surf 6.1.0, Spring WebScripts 6.20, Freemarker 2.3.20-alfresco-patched, Rhino 1.7R4-alfresco-patched, Yui 2.9.0-alfresco-20141223)

Alfresco Community v6.1.2

(r589dc49b-b205) schema 13001

Thank you in advance.

Best regards.

You can use default XML JavaScript API.

var docXml = new XML(document.content);
document.name = docXml.entry.name;

Helo,

Thank you for your answer. 

My javascript console looks like broken because some code sample doesn't run as expected.

As a first step I have to check the console. I just sent you a related message on github.

Best regards.
