Integration between Alfresco and Liferay, to use Alfresco as a document library

10

I need to create a public interface that allows access and download of files available in Alfresco Share. I've been trying to do this using the existing integration between Alfresco and Liferay. I found three ways to integrate Alfresco and Liferay

  • Adding Alfresco as a repository
    • need to configure for the liferay user to be used for alfresco authentication
    • There must be users with the same username and passwords in both applications
  • Configure alfresco to use Alfresco as the file system
    • files are stored in alfresco as binaries
    • the folder names are ids
    • It is not feasible to access the files via alfresco
  • Configure alfresco share as liferay portlet
    • need to modify alfresco's chain authentication
    • allows you to use 3 new portlets to integrate alfresco share to liferay
    • continue needing an authenticated user

I still can not find a form that would answer me, because in two of these ways I need to have one user logged in, and in the other the files are physically in the fresco, but they are saved there in binary format, which makes it impossible to manipulate them there. Maybe something has gone unnoticed, or there is a better way to do that.

About using the same user

  • Create a web services that works with a default user and password;
  • Create your users log on a separate basis (For Alfresco and Liferay it will always be the same user only you will know it is not, and will have this data stored elsewhere if you need to use them more afternoon).
