We add the admin user, which we get out-of-the-box, and the two users we bootstrapped previously. We can store this XML file as part of the Repository JAR module extension project in a file name such as import-group-memberships.xml.

The group membership XML file can be loaded via a Spring bean configuration as follows:

<beanid="org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupMembershipsLoader"class="org.alfresco.repo.admin.patch.impl.GenericBootstrapPatch"parent="basePatch" >
    <property name="id"><value>org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupMembershipsLoader</value></property>
    <property name="description"><value>org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupMembershipsLoader.description</value></property>
    <property name="fixesFromSchema"><value>0</value></property>
    <property name="fixesToSchema"><value>${version.schema}</value></property>
    <property name="targetSchema"><value>99999</value></property>
    <property name="dependsOn" >
        <list>
            <ref bean="org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupsLoader" />
            <ref bean="org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.userProfilesLoader" />
            <ref bean="org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.usersLoader" />
        </list>
    </property>
    <property name="importerBootstrap">
        <ref bean="spacesBootstrap" />
    </property>
    <property name="bootstrapView">
        <props>
            <prop key="path">/${system.system_container.childname}</prop>
            <prop key="location">alfresco/module/bootstrap-content-repo/bootstrap/import-group-memberships.xml</prop>
        </props>
    </property>
</bean>

Note how it depends on the beans that loads the users and groups.

The id and description properties for the group loading should be specified in a message resource file as follows:

org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupsLoader=Load Groups
org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupsLoader.description=Bootstraps groups KB Consumer and KB Coordinator
org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupMembershipsLoader=Load Group Memberships
org.alfresco.tutorial.bootstrap.patch.groupMembershipsLoader.description=Loads the groups KB Consumer and KB Coordinator with 2 users
