[Nuxeo World 2013] Workshop - Build your data model and UI with Nuxeo
1. Build your data model and
UI with Nuxeo Studio
Oct 10th, 2013 Benjamin Jalon & Frédéric Vadon
2. Why are we here?
• An ECM project is about adapting the application to
your business, not the other way around.
•
Nuxeo Platform gives you all the features.
•
Nuxeo Studio provides the tools to customize the
features.
• We are going to prove it!

3. Let’s go real
Story: We work in a hospital and we need to manage all our
documents
•
We need something pretty: new users won’t use it
otherwise.
•
We need OUR data inside, we want to choose what
should be there.
•
We need efficiency! Easy to find information, no
unnecessary stuff.

4. Branding
It should feel like home four our users, we do not want to
disturb them too much
•
Branding is the solution
•
Set up your theme colors.
•
Choose your logos.

5. Document types
We need a way to store Patient informations (Name, Birth
Date, Social Security number...)
•
Nuxeo Documents are designed to
handle information (metadata!) and not
only attached files.
•
Let’s create our own document type (a
Patient)!
•
Metadata are grouped by Schemas.

6. Simple automation
The document title should be calculated automatically
•
Events can be caught and bound to
logic.
•
Let’s catch the patient creation
event.
•
Single operations are available and
can be linked together to create
business logic : it is called
Automation Chains

7. Data model
How can we structure and organize our documents?
•
Create your own domain structure.
•
You can create folderish documents.
•
A document can have metadata and
children!

8. Document listing
In folders, we need to see valuable information quickly.
•
Content views are results of
a query : show the exact
documents you want.
•
Customize the result to
show the right columns.

9. Content view filters
We have too many documents in ours folders, we need to be
able to filter them.
•
Content views comes with filters!
•
Filters are easy as layouts.

10. New tabs
Our patient information are split across 2 tabs (metadata and
content). Any more efficient solution?
•
A tab in Nuxeo can contains form
layout (for metadata) and content
views (to list documents).
•
Tab are very flexible. Do not hesitate
to play and experiment all the
available options!

11. Business logic
Creating a new document for a patient takes too many steps,
cannot it be quicker?
•
What is needed is a button directly on the new Patient
tab.
•
The buttons (called User Actions) can be linked to
automation chains to bring new logic into Nuxeo.

12. Managing Patient status
We start to have too many Patients in the system. Could we
archive their info once there are out of the hospital?
•
Every nuxeo Document has a
life cycle, this is what we
need here.
•
State for a document can be
changed using Automation.
