Folder Content Size in Alfresco Share

Customize Share Folder Details page to show (recursive) content size in this folder.

Share

• Customize Folder Details Page
• Add Folder Size as sub-component to Folder Metadata section
• When browsing with Repository menu in Share, this can show the size of Site, User Homes etc, which are sub-types of cm:folder.

Repo

Create webscript to calculate node content size. The number may be different from that of Alfresco OOTB webscript (/slingshot/doclib2/node). It includes the child nodes such as thumbnails while the OOTB does not.

TODO

• Include number of documents & number of sub-folders
• Add Folder Size as a new region/component to Folder Details template, instead of sub-component of Folder Metadata
