How to get Room Id

[Former Member]

Hi

I would like to develop a custom Iview for collaboration.

IRoom room = roomsAPI.getRoom("c0514d6b-57ab-2810-dcaf-8ab435de7871");

response.write(room.getDescription());

response.write(room.getName());

response.write(""+room.getLastModified());

In the above code i am hardcoding the room Id. But my requirement once user selects a particular room in a room directory. I would like to capture the room id of that room?

Experts!! Any coding snippet is appreciated.

Thanks & Regards

HI,

To add to Patricio Garcia's post

In the given link goto -> Using and Extending the KMC Platform -> Collaboration -> How to Use the Rooms API.

Code snippet

============

IPortalComponentRequest request = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();

IUser user;

user = request.getUser();

IRooms roomsAPI = (IRooms) PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(

IRooms.PORTAL_SERVICE_ID);

IRoom[] <b>allUserRooms</b> = roomsAPI.getAllRoomsForUser(user);

for (int i = 0; i < allUserRooms.length; i++) {

Vector val = new Vector();

String roomName = allUserRooms<i>.getName();

}

The method .getName is a method for IRoom.

I have created an IRoom array for holding all the rooms available for the user[allUserRooms]. Then i am getting the name of each room by iterating through the array.

Hi Venkatapathi

I gone through your code:

hi ravi,

As kiru already said, he is iterating through the array.

IRooms roomsAPI = (IRooms) PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IRooms.PORTAL_SERVICE_ID);

IRoom[] allUserRooms = roomsAPI.getAllRoomsForUser(request.getUser());

for(int i=0;i<allUserRooms.length;i++){

String roomName = <b>allUserRooms[ i].getName();</b>

}

Hi Kiru

My actual requirement is below:

I have created a room template with documents, room info, tasks, member lists, member roles....

and I have created a new room basing on the above room template. When I am creating new room i am giving a long description and once i entered the room navigate through room info page the description is expanded with horizontal bar.

But my requirement is to split the description into two to three lines.(with out using horizontal bar).

For that, Should i have to create a new custom iview.

Do you have any idea on how to handle the above problem?

Don't worry about your reward points.

Thanks
