Odredite Fast port QRServer

Kako bi se komunicirati s FAST Search putem API, moramo znati port na kojem je pokrenut QRServer.

Pratio sam ove korake da biste ga pronašli:

  1. Prijavite se u FAST admin stranice (http://server:port/admin).
  2. Idite na Pregled sustava.
  3. Locate "Search Dispatcher" i kliknite na ikonu spyglass:

  4. Ja sam uspješno koristio vrijednost, 15100 for "Info Name" = "http":

    slika

Bilješke:

1. Luka 15100 appears to be the default out-of-the-box port number for the QRServer.

2. Koristite ovaj kod sličan sljedećeg instancu vezu na post:

     ISearchFactory searchFactory;
    
        NameValueCollection nameValueCollection = novi NameValueCollection();
    
        nameValueCollection.Add("fastsearchengine", "Com.FastSearch.Esp.Search.Http.HttpSearchFactory");
        nameValueCollection.Add("Com.FastSearch.Esp.Search.Http.QRServers", "fastdemoback:15102");
        nameValueCollection.Add("Com.FastSearch.Esp.Search.Http.RequestMethod", "GET");
    
        searchFactory = SearchFactory.NewInstance(nameValueCollection);

3. Ako odaberete mahnito netočan luku, ćete dobiti korisne poruku o pogrešci:

4. Međutim, Ako odaberete broj porta naveden na pregled (15102) you don’t get that helpful error message. Umjesto toga, kasnije, kada pokušate pristupiti podatke putem pretrage ili upućivanje na FAST pogled, you get an error. Debugging shows that the searchFactory’s view count is zero. You’ll be given the message "Failed to fetch Search View List".

Prema SharePoint tehničkim dizajn obrazaca: SharePoint Designer Workflow + Događaj prijemnik visoke = potencija Cocktail

Jedan od obrazaca u nastajanju mogu naći u crafting SharePoint rješenja utjecati SharePoint Designer tijek rada i događaj prijemnik.

Ovdje je poslovni scenarij da ga staviti u kontekst:

  • Ću uploadati dokument na doc lib.
  • Sam kick off multi-korak workflow izrađena pomoću SharePoint Designer.
  • U nekom trenutku tijekom tog procesa, tijek rada dodjeljuje zadatak da netko (putem prikupljanja podataka iz korisnika ili dodijeliti zadatak).
  • We want to use a KPI to track how long that task is awaiting completion. The KPI shows green for tasks that are completed or due more than 3 days from now. It shows yellow if the task is due tomorrow or today. It shows red if the task is past due.
  • Evo buntovnik: Želim datum koji vozi da KPI biti svjesni odmor.

I can’t calculate a holiday-aware due date in SharePoint Designer workflow very easily. I would have to create a custom action or use a 3rd party tool. Međutim, it’s easy enough to calculate such a date in an event receiver. Merge those two together and we get a pattern like this:

  • Define a hidden yes/no site column on the document library labeled "DoCalcualteDueDate".
  • Ga inicijalizirati na False.
  • Na određeno vrijeme u tijeku rada (e.g. just before the "collect data" akcija), dodijeliti tu vrijednost na True.
  • ItemUpdate() event receiver looks to see if "DoCalculateDueDate" is true. Since the event receiver runs on every update, "DoCalculateDueDate" obično je lažna.
  • Kada tijek rada dodjeljuje DoCalculateDueDate na true, Događaj prijemnik izračunava odmor-Aware rok.
  • Kada se ovaj događaj prijemnik izračun, se postavlja DoCalculateDueDate zastavom netočno.

Na kraju, SPD workflow is communicated with an event receiver via the DoCalculateDueDate semaphore and we have holiday-aware due dates that are assigned at the exactly correct moment in the workflow’s life. SharePoint Designer controls when the due date is assigned but the event receiver performs the actual calculation and assignment.

Promatrano Ponašanje: Premještanje SPD radne procese unutar zbirke web-mjesta

UPDATE: I’ve been researching how to embed a SPD workflow into a site definition. Ovaj lanac MSDN forum ima neke zanimljive informacije. It’s not conclusive, ali ukazuje na put kroz džunglu.

I’m giving this post a slightly oddball "Observed Behavior" lead since I’m a little leery of drawing conclusions from it. SPD workflows are … temperamentan.

Ljudi često pitaju / pitate / fretting over moving SPD workflows from one place to another. Danas, Pratio sam ove korake i napravio ove primjedbe:

  • Sam stvorio tijek rada koristeći SharePoint Designer u mjestu povezan s biblioteci dokumenata.
  • Povezanih biblioteka dokumenata već nalazi nekoliko dokumenata.
  • Spasio sam mjesto kao predložak.
  • Kad sam spasio mjesto kao predložak, Spasio sam sadržaj, kao i.
  • I stvorio je novu stranicu u istoj zbirci web-mjesta koristeći da predložak.

U ovom trenutku, I tried to run the workflow. It promptly terminated itself with the log message, "Failed on start".

I expected this. I have low expectations when it comes to moving SPD workflows around.

Nastavio sam:

  • Otvoreno mjesto u SharePoint Designer.
  • Had a peek at the workflow. It seemed fine.
  • I clicked "Finish".
  • Trčao sam tijek rada.

Ovaj puta, Internet izrađen prekid.

I’ll add that this workflow used the "collect data from user" radnja koja je relativno složen akcija pod haubom.

I tentatively conclude that the process of "finishing" the workflow caused SPD to properly associate the SPD workflow with the new document library. I also conclude the XOML and other XML artifacts are reasonably "loose". They are not super tightly coupled to the document library.

Što to znači? Assuming it’s a reliable and reproducible process, there’s at least one rough method we can use to move them around. I don’t know if this would work if we crossed site collection boundaries or even more drastically, potpuno nove farme (e.g. dev, do stupnja da prod).

Ako ste čitajući ovo i skloni, molimo upisali komentar ili elektronička pošta mene your SharePoint Designer migration story. I’ll gladly update this posting with any insights thus offered.

Brzo i jednostavno: Workflow samo Update Field

It’s often useful to store status information in a custom list such as an approval code which should never be directly manipulated by end users. This is a common business scenario. I have been working on a project this year that generates various status and reminder dates via SharePoint Designer workflows that then drive KPIs and generally support time-critical business processes.

Koristite vrstu sadržaja web-mjesta / stup kako bi se postigla ovaj efekt.

Stvaranje vrste sadržaja web-mjesta s stupcu statusa kao što je prikazano:

slika

Note the "Status (za Demo)" polje na dnu.

Sljedeći, click on the column name to access the column’s properties. Select "Hidden (Neće se pojaviti u oblicima)" u dijelu Stupac postavke kao što je prikazano:

slika

This removes the field from the standard edit/update forms. Međutim, to je još uvijek dostupan u pogledima, KPI, objektni model i bilo gdje drugdje da ga želite koristiti, including SPD workflow.

Nedjelja Zabavno: “Mislio sam da je trebao biti bogat grad”

Malo više od tri godine, moja supruga i ja potpisao moj sin se za ljetne aktivnosti, The Midland Park Players. This is a drama group that spends about three or four weeks preparing for a play and then showing it to the parents, friends and relatives. It’s always been done very well.

I don’t know if everyone’s child is like this, but my son is extremely reluctant to try new things. Knowing this, we signed him up for the program. We’ve found that it’s best to alert him to these kinds of things early and often. Tako, in order to overcome his natural reluctance, we told him early and did our best to make it sound like fun, itd.. Even with a multi-month advertising campaign, he still wasn’t convinced. We forced him to do, iako, and as is often the case, he had a great time.

By the time the second year rolled around, he had once again convinced himself that he didn’t want to participate. Ali, we had signed him up and on zero-day, I dropped him off one morning at the high school where they practice. When I went to pick him up after lunch, he was very excited, all smiles and announced, "The play is the Velveteen Rabbit and I want to be the Rabbit". He had spent literally months carrying on (sometimes hysterically) about how he didn’t want to have anything to do with Park Players and after the first day, he wants to be the lead role in the play. We’ve seen this pattern before.

(Much to our surprise, he did get the Rabbit role and he was amazing.)

Fast forward a few years. He’s been in Park Players three times now, so he’s something of a veteran. This summer (2008), Players starts up again. U međuvremenu, he’s finally convinced us he stvarno doesn’t want to play soccer and he never liked basketball. That left him with no extra-curricular activities for late Winter / early Spring. A client with whom I was working mentioned that his daughter was in a program called Stage Right. Stage right is a slightly more expensive version of Park Players and it’s not in my town, but adjacent to it. Perfect.

The thing to know about that town is that it’s practically another country in terms of wealth. It has a high-frequency train right to Wall Street and NYC in general. It’s just a wealthy place. One of the on-going family discussion themes is whether we should have moved to that town instead of where we live now. It’s a bigger town, its schools offer more programs for the kids, itd.. My wife grew up in that town and her parents live there, so we are "hooked in" despite not living there. I personally grew up in different circumstances in Massachusetts, so I don’t have a lot to say about this during family dinner conversation. This isn’t to say that we aren’t very happy where we live. We just know that that town is a level above our town economically.

Stage Right’s next program started too soon for us to launch our normal advertising campaign to overcome my son’s reluctance. This is when he came up with one my personal favorite arguments against doing something: "Friday nights are prime nights for sleep overs!" Stage Right was going to interfere with his weekend socials.

The day comes, we bring him there and drop him off and as with everything else, his natural love of just being alive took over and he’s been having a good time with it.

This past weekend my wife was talking to him and for the first time, I think he’s tailoring his discussions very precisely for his audience. She had asked him how Stage Right compares to Midland Park Players. He tells her that "In Park Players, we have teenagers that help us out. There aren’t any in in Stage Right. In Park Players, teenagers make all props. In Stage Right, we have to bring our own props. We have to do everything. And then he twists the knife: "I thought this was supposed to be a rich town."

All these years, I never really thought that he was hearing or understanding anything as it related to the "rich town". Međutim, it turns out he was.

SharePoint ne daje kalendar Roll-up; Potencijalni rješenja

UPDATE: An anonymous person in the comments posts this link: http://www.atidan.com/atidan-collaboration-kit.php

Forum korisnici često postaviti pitanje ovako:

"I would like to have a calendar at the site level that is populated by events from subsite calendars. Ideally, Korisnici u podlokaciji će stvoriti kalendar događanja, and will have the option of marking them as ‘public.’ Events marked as public will dynamically appear in the shared site calendar. Thus the shared site calendar is a roll-up of all public events from all subsite calendars."

Je WSS 3.0 ili MOSS 2007, it is not possible to directly configure a "roll-up" calendar. Calendars exist on their own, neovisno o bilo kojem drugom kalendaru.

Za stvaranje roll-up kalendar, slijedite jedan od ovih staza:

  1. Use a Content Query Web Part. This is the easiest solution for MOSS users (WSS ne daje CQWP). CQWP, nažalost, does not provide a calendar view of data out of the box. It does provide enormous rendering flexibility (pogledajte ovdje za jedan primjer) ali po defaultu, shows its results in simple list format. In many cases, CQWP vjerojatno dobar izbor.
  2. A more programming-oriented solution would be to use event receivers. Implement event receivers on the subsite calendars that keep their public events in sync with the master calendar. As a given subsite calendar is modified, reach out to the master calendar and update it as needed. This option is available in both WSS 3.0 i mahovina.

There are probably other clever solutions to this problem. If you have one or know of one, molimo ostavite komentar ili elektronička pošta mene i ja ću ažurirati ovaj post.

Stvaranje web-mjesta (SPWeb) putem SharePoint Designer Workflow

This blog entry is more of an "in the realm of the possible" ulazak vs. beton info.

We have a technical design that calls for us to create a site in a site collection via a manually launched workflow process. U osnovi, users enter data into a "new customer" prilagođeni popis i onda kada su završili i potvrđene proces unosa podataka, moramo stvoriti mjesto za tog kupca.

Ja sam veliki obožavatelj i deklarativne rada, kao i slaba Visual Studio programer tijekom rada, pa sam htjela da zadovolji zahtjev pomoću SharePoint Designer.

Planiram pisati o tome podrobnije (i nadamo prisutni na skupinu korisnika ili dva u narednoj godini), ali ovdje je cjelovito rješenje:

  • Stvaranje prilagođene akcije koja se integrira sa SPD.
  • Prilagođene akcije omogućuje SPD zazivati ​​web servis i proći ga niz XML.
  • Web servis smješta red u prilagođenom popisu i stvara novu stranicu po podacima za tog novog klijenta koriste prilagođenu web definiciju.
  • Web servis zatim ažurira prilagođeni popis s nekim informacijama kao što je link na novu stranicu.

Mi smo u obzir i ostale pristupe, such as event handlers and visual studio based workflow. The SPD approach gives our end users a little more control over the process. Granted, postoji puno C # koda u ovom rješenju, ali to je zamotan u deklarativnoj rada, tako da smo dobili neke od prednosti rada, dok deklarativne spaja na web-stvaranje usluga.

All we need now is an easy tool to automatically migrate SPD workflows around as easily as we can for visual studio workflows and we’ll really be cooking with gas 🙂 I understand that some folk are out there working on this problem and I hope they have some good success with it soon.

Brzo i jednostavno: Pružanje Web Site Korištenje SharePoint Object Model u C #

I tried searching for a little snippet code that would show how I can create a new SPWeb in a site collection. I didn’t find it as quickly or easily as I expected so I thought I’d slap together a little entry on the subject.

Ovaj kod stvara novi Wiki stranice:

 SPSite siteCollection;

    siteCollection = novi SPSite("http://conchang-o9l8qi");

    SPWeb w = siteCollection.OpenWeb();

    w.Webs.Add("xyzzy", "xyzzy Title",
        "xyzzy description", 1033, SPWebTemplate.WebTemplateWIKI, lažan, lažan);

My initial searches failed because I was looking for phrases like "provision a web site using sharepoint object model" and the like.

Ako Usporedite for "Webs.Add()", naći ćete niz vrlo korisnih blogova, MSDN articles and SDK documentation that go into depth on this subject. I definitely recommend ovaj site.

Integracija SharePoint Designer Tijekovi rada s Web Services

Ive 'bio igranje okolo sa prilagođenim aktivnostima za SharePoint Designer za neko vrijeme (pogledajte ovdje za neke stvari detaljnije, ako da vas zanima).

U mom trenutnom projektu, we need to do some fairly heavy lifting and we want to use declarative SPD workflow to manage the associated business process.

Da ne duljimo, this is entirely possible. I extended my Codeplex project to invoke a "helper service" and now we can invoke a web service directly from an SPD workflow.

Evo potpis:

 javni niz Dispečer(
        Guid WebID, // Donosi runtime okruženja
        Guid SiteID, // Donosi runtime okruženja
        niz ListID, // Donosi RTE (ne znam zašto je to niz, ne GUID)
        int ListItemID, // Donosi RTE.
        niz XmlMessage) // Donesen od strane korisnika navedenu u SPD.

Ovo iskorištava činjenicu da možemo dobiti na važne informacije tijekom rada, kao mjestu, Popis ID, itd.. This is well documented in several places for those of you interested in creating your own custom actions. The idea is to extract the XML string as provided by the user to dispatch an appropriate procedure. Fun stuff!

Nažalost, to je očito u jednom smjeru do "Loosey gušče" anti-uzorak zemljišta, but it’s better than hitting a brick wall 🙂

Je li protiv uzorak ako to učiniti iako znate da je anti-uzorak?

I hope to wrap this inside Codeplex in the near future. If you’re interested in me doing so, daj mi džaku (e-mail ili ostavio komentar) and I’ll be that more enthusiastic about doing it 🙂

Nedjelja Zabavno: “Pitam se, ako je vaša lozinka …”

Nedavno sam kupila ručak za mog brata (kao i obično) and we ended up talking about funny things that we did at our respective colleges. At my alma mater, Lafayette College, the academic support IT department had a very inclusive way about it. We were given a LOT of rope and I took advantage of that at times.

Two my favorite memories relate to my good friend, Gabe. He had made the terrible mistake of telling people his freshman year that "I’m a freshman, but I have Sophomore standing" due to the various advanced placement classes he had taken, itd.. Many of us were similarly situated but we didn’t talk about it so much. His senior year, when we introduced him to people, we’d say "This is Gabe. He’s a Senior, but he has Sophomore standing".

The college had some Sun workstation/servers running X-Window. They had gigantic monitors and the engineers used them for CAD and other boring engineer stuff. We CS people used them to learn programming and, naravno, to play games.

We didn’t like the computer-helpless engineers to much so one of our favorite things to do would be to telnet to the box they were on and run X-eye on them. This would pop up a pair of eyes that followed the mouse around on the screen. You could pop up even more and have literally a dozen or more of the X-eye applications running. Try not to laugh out loud when a hapless engineer is trying to close X-eye after X-eye and muttering under his breath about it 🙂

We also played X-trek on those boxes. Da biste to postigli, you had to download the source, get various dependencies wherever you could find them and build it. I wasn’t a sophisticated C programmer, but I could read header files. I was looking through these and found directives like "#DEFINE MAX_TORPEDO_DISTANCE 10". I played around with that increase range and power for phases and torpedoes, re-built it and then destroyed Gabe the next time we played.

Gabe was also a huge fan of a TV show called Blake’s 7. I had never seen it, but that didn’t prevent me from insisting that Dr. Who is the superior show. The arguments would get heated at times 🙂

Jednog dana, it occurred to me that I could probably guess his UNIX password. I sat down next to him one day and announced in a loud tone, "I’m going to guess your password right now, Gabe." "Yeah, pravo" was his answer. I then logged in, entered his user id, turned to face him, typed and said out loud, "I wonder if it’s B-L-A-K-E-7" ? Touch typing has never paid off as handsomely as it did that day.

Sljedeći tjedan (or soon): More computer room antics from college.

Do you have any to share? Leave a comment or email me and I’ll publish them here.
