Retrieving a component class

Each category of component class can be manipulated using the JS API through a specific object. An instance of this object can be retrieved using the following functions:

• Document class: JSAPI.get().documentClass()
• Folder class: JSAPI.get().folderClass()
• Virtual folder class: JSAPI.get().virtualFolderClass()
• Task class: JSAPI.get().taskClass()

This object can be used to retrieve component classes in the same category. To achieve this, a get function is exhibited. It is used to query the client-side cache first. If one or more classes have not already been cached, the services exhibited by FlowerDocs Core will be queried to retrieve the missing classes.

JSAPI.get().documentClass().get(["Document"], 
	function(classes){
		console.info("Success!");
	},
	function(error){
		console.error("Document classes could not be got: " + error);
	}
);

Component class information

Component classes contain information used by the Core or graphical user interface. They can be retrieved using the following functions:

Access to tag references

Each component class has a list of tag references. These references can be used to associate tag classes to a component typology.

From a component class, the getTagReferences() function exhibits tag references in the form of an array of objects. The following functions can be used for each of these objects:
