jsNode is the preferred object to access node properties and aspects by using JavaScript on the browser.
When dealing with DataTable records, record.jsNode should be available.
Note: It is the responsibility of any code that updates DataTable records to also ensure the
jsNode property is updated (usually within the AJAX success
callback).
To create a jsNode instance,
use:
jsNode = new SkyVault.util.Node(p_node)where p_node can either be a JavaScript object or JSON string. In either case, it should be in the format returned by the doclist-v2 data web scripts.
Methods
The jsNode methods are:
| getNode | Returns original node object. If a JSON string was passed in, this method returns a JavaScript object |
| toJSON | Return the JSON string serialization of the node |
| setNodeRef | Sets a new nodeRef - doesn't requery node properties however. Used solely when generating new page urls |
| hasAspect | Returns true if this node has the given aspect |
| hasTag | Returns true if this node has the given tag applied |
Also new to v4.0 is the slingshot-documentlibrary-context.xml file containing all bean definitions for web tier evaluators.

The jsNode properties are:
| Core node properties | |
| nodeRef | NodeRef |
| type | The node’s type in short QName format |
| isContainer | Returns true if the node is a container type |
| isLink | Returns true if the node is a file or folderlink type |
| isLocked | Returns true if the node has been locked by any user |
| linkedNode | If this node is a link, returns a jsNode instance of the linked node |

| mimetype | Content mimetype |
| size | Content size in bytes |
| Properties | |
