Folder ID in FSDB

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a CM repository with FSDB persistence mode. When I create a room a folder is automatically created in this repository. If I browse to the folder with the portal I can see the correct name of the folder, but If I browser with the Windows Explorer tot this folder all I can see is and ID. Is there anyway that the folder name in the File system has the readable name not the ID?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Gregori,

I'm "only" a specialist for the CM store (and the FSDB persistence mode) NOT for the rooms component. But I have in mind that the rooms component always uses generated IDs as the "name" for created resources and never the "displayname". That is an implementation detail of this component and there will be some good reasons to do so...

Hi,

thanks a lot for your answer. I guess I'll have a workaround to solve this.

Hi Gregori,

in CM stores with persistence mode FSDB the <name> of the file is the <name> of the corresponding resource. You will see in most UIs of the EP a <displayname> instead of the <name> of the resource if present. The room component uses a UUID like name for the rooms created cause many rooms might have the same name (which would lead to errors in the filesystem). You will see this name in the filesystem. The displayname of this resource is stored in the database and there is no way to display it directly in the windows explorer...

Hi,

thanks for the answer, but I have another question. The folder that is created in the FSDB is created by an extension, and the name of the folder is passed via a variable that is informed by the user at room creation. Should this folder also be created in the FSDB with the UUID? It is not the room name or something similar, is just the folder for the room documents why should this be a uuid and not the folder name I specify?

Thanks in advance.
