Access the full Alfresco repository from the Share user interface

Alfresco 3.2r introduces the ability to access the full alfresco repo from share user interface

Here few steps are there.

step1: go to to tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\web-extension
step2: rename the share-config-custom.xml.sample to share-config-custom.xml
step3: change the xml file as shown below which is marked in red color.


   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="RepositoryLibrary" replace="true">
      <!--
         Whether the link to the Repository Library appears in the header component or not.
      -->
      <visible>true</visible>

      <!--
         Root nodeRef for top-level folder.
      -->
      <root-node>alfresco://company/home</root-node>

      <!--
         Whether the folder Tree component should enumerate child folders or not.
         This is a relatively expensive operation, so should be set to "false" for Repositories with broad folder structures.
      -->
      <tree>
         <evaluate-child-folders>false</evaluate-child-folders>
      </tree>
   </config>

step4: restart the server, then go to share admin dashboard you will find the screen as follows then click on repository.


step5: in the left side of the screen you can find the alfresco repository files as shown below.
