This project defines a custom dashlet that provides a set of stats.

The add-on has been developed to install on top of an existing Alfresco 3.4 installation.

An Ant build script is provided to build a JAR file containing the custom files, which can then be installed into the 'tomcat/shared/lib' folder of your Alfresco installation.

To build the JAR file, run the following command from the base project directory.

ant clean dist-jar

The command should build a JAR file named stats-dashlet.jar in the 'build/dist' directory within your project.

To deploy the dashlet files into a local Tomcat instance for testing, you can use the hotcopy-tomcat-jar task. You will need to set the tomcat.home property in Ant.

ant -Dtomcat.home=C:/Alfresco/tomcat clean hotcopy-tomcat-jar

Once you have run this you will need to restart Tomcat so that the classpath resources in the JAR file are picked up.

Log in to Alfresco Share and navigate to your user dashboard. Click the Customize Dashboard button to edit the contents of the dashboard and drag the dashlet into one of the columns from the list of dashlets.
