Hello,
I try to test performance with jmeter on alfresco. I would like to send numberous files to see what could be the limit ...
On a old alfresco, when i did upload of some file, the Path used were : /share/proxy/alfresco/api/upload
It permitted me to send files by jmeter on alfresco without problem.
On my new alfresco (7.0.3), the path looks like : (taken by script recorder)
/share/proxy/alfresco/api/upload?Alfresco-CSRFToken=Kx2T3mXBQwVPyhKiD0xwb8AA9Vl0qNV2gO0z1cq3UYM%3D-148
Which doesn't permit to do it by jmeter (can't know the token of session by advance)
I have tried pass CSRFPolicy to "true" in share-config-custom but didn't change anything
Is there a way for not using token when upload a file ???
Thank you
Alfresco 7.3 is still not officially released AFAIK, as you have mentioned the version in the title of the post, but i believe you are using 7.0.x version. Just in case, Use the latest stable release version from here: https://www.alfresco.com/thank-you/thank-you-downloading-alfresco-community-edition
Why don't you use these API calls if the goal is to load test uploads:
POST: /alfresco/service/api/upload
You can find additional details about the upload api (/alfresco/service/api/upload) here: https://javaworld-abhinav.blogspot.com/2014/09/upload-documents-to-alfresco-using-rest.html
You can also take a look at this jmeter plugin that can be used to load test uplods via http or ftp :
https://github.com/abhinavmishra14/AlfrescoJMeterLoadTestPlugin
or
Use V1 REST API for upload requests:
POST: /alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/{id}/children
On the other hand, you have option to disbale csrf by adding following to alfresco-global.properties (Not recommeded for production environment)
csrf.filter.enabled=false
and for share, update the share-config-custom.xml:
<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="CSRFPolicy" replace="true"> <filter/> </config>
Hello,
Thanks for answer.
I really use the version 7.3.0 (version I have obtained using docker way of installation of the community)
I tried :
POST: /alfresco/service/api/upload
But it doesn't work on that version
Seems it need a session token , which make my problem ....
That's correct. You can't upload to repository without authentication.
You can either send the alf_ticket with the request by first calling login api. or you can use basic authentication mechanism like you did with share. There is "NO WAY" you can bypass authentication and upload to repo AFAIK.
here are some examples tested via curl:
V1 API example:
Using alf_ticket: $ curl -X POST -F filedata=@test2.txt -F "name=somefile.txt" -F "nodeType=cm:content" -F "cm:title=My text" -F "cm:description=My text document description" -F "relativePath=/Sites/testsite/documentLibrary/myfolder" http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-/children?alf_ticket=TICKET_455c2e0153a24170466005a9b9326607cee59674 OR Basic auth: $ curl -X POST -F filedata=@test2.txt -F "name=somefile.txt" -F "nodeType=cm:content" -F "cm:title=My text" -F "cm:description=My text document description" -F "relativePath=/Sites/testsite/documentLibrary/myfolder" -H 'Authorization: Basic VElDS0VUXzQ1NWMyZTAxNTNhMjQxNzA0NjYwMDVhOWI5MzI2NjA3Y2VlNTk2NzQ=' http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-/children
Repo based api should work same way by passing alf_ticket or basic auth. I don't whether you gone through this: https://javaworld-abhinav.blogspot.com/2014/09/upload-documents-to-alfresco-using-rest.html
there are in detail steps
