By default, your activities, such as writing a document, and uploading a file, are published on the activity stream. However, you can decide to publish these activities or not by creating a context named DocumentContext for a specific document. This context stores some auxiliary attributes of the document and helps document listeners make decision based on these attributes.
This context looks like:
public class DocumentContext {
private static ThreadLocal<DocumentContext> current = new ThreadLocal<DocumentContext>();
public static DocumentContext getCurrent() {
if (current.get() == null) {
setCurrent(new DocumentContext());
}
return current.get();
}
....
//Each time, attributes are able to set and got via:
/**
* @return the attributes
*/
public HashMap<String, Object> getAttributes() {
return attributes;
}
/**
* @param attributes the attributes to set
*/
public void setAttributes(HashMap<String, Object> attributes) {
this.attributes = attributes;
}
}
For example:
When you upload a document to a drive by using ManageDocumentService, but do not want to publish this activity on the activity stream, you can do as follows:
DocumentContext.getCurrent().getAttributes().put(DocumentContext.IS_SKIP_RAISE_ACT, true);
Then, this activity is skipped at:
Object isSkipRaiseAct = DocumentContext.getCurrent().getAttributes().get(DocumentContext.IS_SKIP_RAISE_ACT);
if (isSkipRaiseAct != null && Boolean.valueOf(isSkipRaiseAct.toString())) {
return;
}
The DocumentContext class is able to help developers manage various kinds of actions with a document based on its auxiliary attributes. You can be free to define new attributes for yourself.
