Publish resource file via JSCode

[jorgeferreira]

Hello, 

I'm trying to create and publish resource files dynamically by JS code but I'm not being able to publish them after creating. 

My code is as follows:

var file = new File("F:\\Attachments\\current\\attach1.pdf");
if(!file.exists)
     logError ("File '" + file.fullName + "' does not exist.");
     
var extension = /[^.]+$/.exec(file.name);
var md5 = digestStrMd5(file.name);
     
if (!file.copyTo("E:\\Adobe\\Campaign\\var\\campaign_tst\\upload\\" + md5 + "." + extension))
       logError ("File '" + file.fullName + "' was not copied");


var xmlString = '<fileRes alt="" codepage="0" height="0" name="'+md5+'" nature=""  publish="1" storageType="5" useMd5AsFilename="1" userContentType="0" version=""  width="0" xtkschema="xtk:fileRes"/>'
var fileRes = xtk.fileRes.create( new XML(xmlString));
fileRes.contentType="application/pdf";
fileRes.label = "Attachment 1"
fileRes.md5 = md5;
fileRes.fileName = md5;
fileRes.originalName = md5+".pdf";
fileRes.save();
fileRes.PublishIfNeeded();

After this code, the files are always with the state publishing is needed:

Are there any suggestions on how can I publish this attachments via code?
Even if I have to load them in a separate JS. 

Thanks in advance

Hi, 

I also came accross that unanswered question. 
It's not clear for me how can I call that method.

Hi @jorgeferreira 

Could you Please try fileRes.FilePublishing(fileRes); at the end of the code and let me know if it works.

Pravallika.

I have the error: Method 'FilePublishing' of schema 'xtk:fileRes' is of 'static' type.

Hello @jorgeferreira,

I remembered i was having similar issue but did not finish the thing

https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-campaign-classic-questions/i-want-to-upload-i...

And they recommend use publishIfNeededFromId for one file resource
https://experienceleague.adobe.com/developer/campaign-api/api/sm-fileRes-PublishIfNeededFromId.html

In your case I gues you need to create some sort of file list  but i could not find the structure. Maybe it can follow session write collection logic:

<fileRes-collection xtkschema="xtk:fileRes">
  <fileRes name="" md5=""/>
  <fileRes name="" md5=""/>
  <fileRes name="" md5=""/>
</fileRes-collection>

Hi Marcel, 

In the first link you have provided I could find the answer to this specific issue.

I just needed to add 

xtk.fileRes.PublishIfNeededFromId(fileRes.id);

After the .save()

Thanks!
