findSites

@NotAuditable
List<SiteInfo> findSites(String filter,
                                    String sitePresetFilter,
                                    int size)

This method will find all sites available to the currently authenticated user based on the specified site filter, site preset filter and result set size. The filter parameter will match any sites whose cm:name, cm:title or cm:description contain the specified string (ignoring case).

Note that this method uses Alfresco Full Text Search to retrieve results and depending on server Lucene, SOLR configuration may only offer eventually consistent results.

Parameters:

sitePresetFilter - a site preset filter name to match against.

size - this parameter specifies a maximum result set size.

Returns:

Site objects for all matching sites up to the maximum result size.

Since:

4.0

                                    int size)

This method will find all sites available to the currently authenticated user based on the specified site filter and result set size. The filter parameter will match any sites whose cm:name, cm:title or cm:description contain the specified string (ignoring case).

Note that this method uses Alfresco Full Text Search to retrieve results and depending on server Lucene, SOLR configuration may only offer eventually consistent results.

Parameters:

filter - Any supplied filter will be wrapped in asterisks (e.g. 'foo*') and used to match the sites' cm:name, cm:title or cm:description.

List the available sites. This list can optionally be filtered by site name/title/description and/or site preset.

Note: Starting with Alfresco 4.0, the filter parameter will only match sites whose cm:name or cm:title or cm:description start with the specified string (ignoring case).
