erminas SmartAPI is the extension of SmartEdit and SmartTree in regard of development. Where SmartEdit allows you to edit conveniently and SmartTree makes administration in your browser possible, SmartAPI creates a comfortable programming interface for the OpenText WSM Management Server.

The complete library is written in C# / .NET and can be used from within the CMS as plugin or from an external .NET (web) application. As .NET is being used there is no break in the technology you use and the application can be hosted directly in your Windows Server in the IIS. You do not need any other hardware or server installed.

The goal of SmartAPI is to provide a comfortable, fully object-oriented and well-tested library for all developers and users of OpenText WSM. There is no expensive in-house development necessary but you can choose a ready-to-use library that just works.

 
// RedDot Login with (user/password)
var authData = new PasswordAuthentication("user", "password");
 
var login = new ServerLogin {Address = new Uri("http://my-reddot-server/cms"), AuthData = authData};
 
// Session is the entry point to interact with the RedDot server.
// Creating the session object automatically creates a connection.
// Dispose() closes the connection in a a clean way (this is done
// automatically at the end of the using block).
using(var session = SessionBuilder.CreateOrReplaceOldestSession(login))
{
  // Select a project based on the name
  var project = session.ServerManager.Projects["MyProjekt"];
 
  // Find all pages based on the Content Class "MyContentClass"
  var pageSearch = project.CreatePageSearch();
  pageSearch.ContentClass = project.ContentClasses.GetByName("MyContentClass");
 
  var pages = pageSearch.Execute();
 
  // Attach suffix ".php" to all filenames of the pages found
  foreach(var curPage in pages )
  {
    curPage.Filename = curPage.Filename + ".php";
 
    // Commit changes to the server
    curPage.Commit();
  }
}
