RemoteCCK performs a link between a generic web service and a content type.
The module can:
- Analyze a web service
- Create a new content type to invoke an operation of a web service
- Update an existing content type to invoke an operation of a web service
- Invoke an operation of a web service from the che "create content" menu
After the installation, at the path:
admin/settings/remotecck
you have the configuration menu.
First of all you must insert a valid web service url, at the path:
admin/settings/remotecck/insert
After that go to:
admin/settings/remotecck/operation
to create a new content type for this operation, it will create a connection between the operation selected and the content type.
To update an existing content type (adding the field to invoke operation) go to:
admin/settings/remotecck/update
To perform the manual mapping between field of a content type and operation go to:
admin/settings/remotecck/mapping
To remove the connection between a content type and an operation go to:
admin/settings/remotecck/delete
In the configuration form of a content type (with associated an operation) it's possible to set the request type of the remoteCCK call.
There are four types of call:
- Before Submit : the operation is invoked when the node is created
- After Submit : the operation is invoked after the click of submit button
- During Compile : a "make call" button is added and the operation is invoked with the click of that button
- Do Nothing : do not perform the call
If a content type has associated more operations, a select area will appear for every operation.
You can select the check "One Request Button for all operation" for having an unique "make call" button for every operation.
