Server side plugins take the form of listeners. A listener is configured to listen for specific types of activity on the server. A listener is implemented by writing a class that implements one of the interfaces defined in the "org.actioncenters.core.contribution.svc.notification.listeners" package.
The available listener interfaces are:
IAddContributionListener: Invoked whenever a user adds a contribution.
IAddRelationshipListener: Invoked whenever a new relationship is created between contributions.
IAddUserRoleListener: Invoked whenever a user is assigned to a new role.
IMoveContributionListener: Invoked whenever a contribution is move from one superior relationship to another.
IRemoveContributionListener: Invoked whenever a contribution is removed from the system.
IUpdateContributionListener: Invoked whenever a contribution is updated.
IUpdateContributionThumbprintsListener: Invoked whenever the thumbprint is update on a contribution.
IUserMessageListener: Invoked whenever a message is sent to a user
Write a new java class that implements the desired listener interface and implements all of the defined methods.
The listener has to be registered with the ActionCenters system so that it can be notified of the desired events.
To register a listener, find the bean "notificationService" in the actioncenters.xml spring configuration file. Find the appropriate listener property and add your new listener to the list of listeners in that section.
<bean id="notificationService"
class="org.actioncenters.core.contribution.svc.notification.impl.ContributionNotificationService">
<property name="addContributionListeners">
<set>
<bean
class="<listener class name>" />
</set>
</property>
</bean>
