Reading WebDAV Content from ABAP

Former Member — Mon, 26 May 2014 14:22:00 GMT

Hello,

I like to read WebDAV Content from SAP NetWeaver Portal KM with ABAP.

For writing Content with WebDAV I found this post:

With Method GET_CONTENT from CL_SWDCL_NAMESPACE_CLIENT I can read single files, but what I need is a list with files and folders for a given path.

I also tried to use the Interface IF_SWDCL_BASIC_SEARCH_CLIENT, but I only get HTML-Errorcodes 400 or 422 since I don't know which parameters I need.

Maybe there is someone here who can help me to solve this problem.

Thank you.

Hi, after some time of search I found 2 possibilities to list the files of a directory with webDAV.

1. Possibility (based on the small working example you've linked):

DATA: mt_tab TYPE sdavc_tt_resource_data,
ms_tab TYPE sdavc_ts_resource_data.

prop = lo_client->get_property_client( ).

prop->get_properties(

EXPORTING

i_url = '/some_directory' " URL

i_depth = '1' " Tiefe

RECEIVING

rt_resources = mt_tab " Daten von WebDAV-Resourcen

"ms_tab-url is the path of the file/dir, ms_tab-content_type is e.g. httpd/unix-directory

LOOP AT mt_tab INTO ms_tab.

ENDLOOP.

2. Possibility (also based on the example)

          DATA factory TYPE REF To if_SWDCL_RESOURCE_FACTORY.
         DATA resource TYPE REF TO if_SWDCL_RESOURCE.

         factory = cl_SWDCL_RESOURCE_FACTORY=>get_instance( ).

         " read directory
         factory->get_resource(
           EXPORTING
             i_url                 = '/some_directory'
             ip_connection         = lo_connection    " DAV-Connection-Objekt
           RECEIVING
             rp_resource           = resource   " WebDAV-Resource
         ).

         DATA: children TYPE SDAVC_TT_RESOURCES,
               ms_directory TYPE SDAVC_TS_RESOURCE,
               mt_files TYPE SDAVC_TT_RESOURCES.

        children = resource->get_children( ).


        LOOP AT children INTO ms_directory.

" ms_directory-resource is the child resource

" ms_directory-url is the name of the resource: e.g. test.xml
mt_files = ms_directory-resource->get_children( ).

          " if not initial then ms_directory is a directory with another files
         IF NOT mt_files IS INITIAL.
           LOOP AT mt_files.

           ENDLOOP.
         ENDIF.

        ENDLOOP.

This should help.
