How to start with beanshell?

[Imre András Róbert]

Hi,

I'm looking for available docs about beanshell.
(Purpose, capabilities, general use, examples etc.)

I didn't find anything for getting started.


Thanks,

Ok, let me be more specific and also answer my own question.


Question:
How can I start using BeanShell in ofbiz and what can I do with it?

Answer:
BeanShell can be used for testing and debugging services quickly.
It gives a scripting capability to ofbiz. We can connect to this
interface via telnetting to its port if beanshell component is
enabled. Using this we're deep inside ofbiz, that's why this port
should be secured in production use.

We can get entities using find methods of the delegators.
We can call services using dispatchers.

More detail on BeanShell, delegators and dispatchers:
http://www.opensourcestrategies.com/ofbiz/entities_services.php

Also has a link to a BeanShell init script to execute first after
connecting to ofbiz:
http://www.opensourcestrategies.com/downloads/bshcontainer.bsh
This comes handy to have a delegator, a dispatcher and a userLogin
to start working.


Regards,
  András

András,

I guess this is the kind of information that are very valuable for a newbi that don't want to loose too much time learning (even if
some are able to do that in minutes ;o)

So why not open your own account in http://docs.ofbiz.org/ and put this informmation under your account.

That's just what did Christopher Snow in the attached email. Hence you keep your information at reach (they are already in Nabble
but not so well structured) and share them with others. In some future this may evolve in even more structured ways unde the
Dashboard ...

Thanks for your time

Jacques

I've been documenting ofbiz forms for my own learning/reference purpose.
I'm happy to share with the community.  I've still a long way to go, but
you can see the starting point at:

PDF:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/download/attachments/1218/ofbiz-forms.pdf

Open Office Writer:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/download/attachments/1218/ofbiz-forms.odt


I hope the links work ok ...

[Imre András Róbert]

I'm happy to contribute even if this is so little.
I'd suggest to include it in some tech docs.

Please be patient for a couple of days, I will do as
requested as soon as time permits.


Regards,
  András
