<alfresco-document-list
    #list
    [thumbnails]="thumbnails"
    [breadcrumb]="breadcrumb"
    [navigate]="navigation"
    [downloads]="downloads"
    (itemClick)="onItemClick($event)">
</alfresco-document-list>

Example of the component that declares document list and provides values for bindings:

import {Component} from 'angular2/core';
import {
    DOCUMENT_LIST_DIRECTIVES,
    DOCUMENT_LIST_PROVIDERS
} from 'ng2-alfresco-documentlist/ng2-alfresco-documentlist';

@Component({
    selector: 'my-view',
    template: '<YOUR TEMPLATE>',
    directives: [DOCUMENT_LIST_DIRECTIVES],
    providers: [DOCUMENT_LIST_PROVIDERS]
})
export class MyView {
    thumbnails: boolean = true;
    breadcrumb: boolean = false;
    navigation: boolean = true;
    downloads: boolean = true;

    events: any[] = [];

    onItemClick($event) {
        console.log($event.value);
        this.events.push({
            name: 'Item Clicked',
            value: $event.value
        });
    }
}

Note the use of DOCUMENT_LIST_DIRECTIVES barrel that consolidates all the document list related directives together. It gives you access to <document-actions>, <folder-actions> and many other directives. In addition DOCUMENT_LIST_PROVIDERS exports all primary services and providers needed for component to function.

Custom columns

It is possible to reorder, extend or completely redefine data columns displayed by the component. By default special $thumbnail and displayName columns are rendered.

A custom set of columns can look like the following:

<alfresco-document-list ...>
    <content-columns>
        <content-column source="$thumbnail"></content-column>
        <content-column title="Name" source="displayName" class="full-width name-column"></content-column>
        <content-column title="Created By" source="createdBy"></content-column>
        <content-column title="Created On" source="createdOn"></content-column>
    </content-columns>
</alfresco-document-list>

Custom folder icon

Document list element exposes folder-icon property that accepts a CSS class list value with folder_open by default.

You can provide any list of classes in order to customize look and feel of the icon. Example below shows the use of folder_special icon instead of the default one:

<alfresco-document-list folder-icon="folder_special" ...>
</alfresco-document-list>

Actions

Document List supports declarative actions for Documents and Folders. Each action can be bound to either default out-of-box handler or a custom behavior. You can define both folder and document actions at the same time.

<alfresco-document-list ...>
    <content-actions>

        <content-action
            target="document"
            type="menu"
            title="System action"
            handler="system2">
        </content-action>

        <content-action
            target="document"
            type="menu"
            title="Custom action"
            (execute)="myCustomAction1($event)">
        </content-action>

    </content-actions>
</alfresco-document-list>

export class MyView {
    // ...

    myCustomAction1(event) {
        alert('Custom document action for ' + event.value.displayName);
    }
}

All document actions with type="menu" are rendered as a dropdown menu as on the picture below:

Default action handlers

The following action handlers are provided out-of-box:

Download

All system handler names are case-insensitive, handler="download" and handler="DOWNLOAD" will trigger the same download action.

Download

Initiates download of the corresponding document file.

<alfresco-document-list ...>
    <content-actions>

        <content-action
            target="document"
            type="menu"
            title="Download"
            handler="download">
        </content-action>

    </content-actions>
</alfresco-document-list>

Document action buttons

It is also possible to display most frequent actions within a separate buttons panel:

<alfresco-document-list ...>
    <content-actions>

        <content-action
            target="document"
            type="button"
            icon="extension"
            handler="system1">
        </content-action>

        <content-action
            target="document"
            type="button"
            icon="thumb_up"
            handler="system2">
        </content-action>

    </content-actions>
</alfresco-document-list>

Button actions provide same support for system and custom handlers.

Folder actions

Folder actions have the same declaration as document actions except taget="folder" attribute value.

<alfresco-document-list ...>
    <content-actions>

        <content-action
            target="folder"
            type="menu"
            title="Default folder action 1"
            handler="system1">
        </content-action>

        <content-action
            target="folder"
            type="menu"
            title="Custom folder action"
            (execute)="myFolderAction1($event)">
        </content-action>

    </content-actions>
</alfresco-document-list>

export class MyView {
    // ...

    myFolderAction1(event) {
        alert('Custom folder action for ' + event.value.displayName);
    }
}

Folder action buttons

Every folder action is rendered as a separate button.

<alfresco-document-list ...>
    <content-actions>

        <content-action
            target="folder"
            type="button"
            icon="delete"
            title="Delete"
            handler="system1">
        </content-action>

    </content-actions>
</alfresco-document-list>

Advanced usage and customization

Customizing default actions

It is possible extending or replacing the list of available system actions for documents and folders. Actions for the documents and folders can be accessed via the following services:

DocumentActionsService, document action menu and quick document actions
FolderActionsService, folder action menu and quick folder actions

Example below demonstrates how a new action handler can be registered with the DocumentActionsService.

<alfresco-document-list ...>
    <content-actions>

        <content-action
            target="document"
            type="button"
            icon="account_circle"
            handler="my-handler">
        </content-action>

    </content-actions>
</alfresco-document-list>

You register custom handler called my-handler that will be executing myDocumentActionHandler function each time upon being invoked.

import {
    DocumentActionsService
} from 'ng2-alfresco-documentlist/ng2-alfresco-documentlist';

export class MyView {

    constructor(documentActions: DocumentActionsService) {
        documentActions.setHandler(
            'my-handler',
            this.myDocumentActionHandler.bind(this)
        );
    }

    myDocumentActionHandler(obj: any) {
        window.alert('my custom action handler');
    }
}

Upon execution users will see the following dialog:

The same approach allows changing the way out-of-box action handlers behave. Registering custom action with the name download replaces default one:

export class MyView {

    constructor(documentActions: DocumentActionsService) {
        documentActions.setHandler(
            'download',
            this.customDownloadBehavior.bind(this)
        );
    }

    customDownloadBehavior(obj: any) {
        window.alert('my custom download behavior');
    }
}

Typically you may want populating all your custom actions at the application root level or by means of custom application service.
