Web script groovy - Alfresco

Question

I'm trying to make a web script in groovy and run that web script on Alfresco. But, i don't know how to. I read tutorials but I haven't come to any conclusion... Anyone knows all steps to run a web script in groovy ? Which files I need? My idea is to make a integration of one application groovy on Alfresco.

For example, i'm trying to test one of this web scripts: https://github.com/pmonks/alfresco-groovy-webscripts

But i got the error :

$ mvn clean package

The Web Script /alfresco/s/default/surfbug has responded with a status of 500 - Internal Error.

This looks like strictly a maven problem to me. The exception states that Unable to download the artifact from any repository. This means that you've got a dependency on something that can't be found in either your local repository or any of the default or configured remote repository.

The missing dependency is stated as org.alfresco.extension:alfresco-groovy-webscripts-parent:pom:1.3. To get this to work, this artifact needs to be in your local repository. I couldn't find any reference to this in the common remote repositories, so it might be something you need to build from source.

The link you provided in your question is for a github project with the following code in its pom.xml file:

  <groupId>org.alfresco.extension</groupId>
  <artifactId>alfresco-groovy-webscripts-parent</artifactId>
  <packaging>pom</packaging>
  <version>1.4-SNAPSHOT</version>

Notice that the groupId and artifactId match your missing dependency, but the version is different. If you've installed this sample, using mvn install, then version 1.4-SNAPSHOT of this dependency should already be in your local repository. You could search your pom files for the dependency on alfresco-groovy-webscripts-parent v1.3, and change it to 1.4-SNAPSHOT and try again.
