Summary

In this chapter, we have gained an understanding about the different ways to invoke a web script, for example, from the web browser. Using the add-ons available for the web browser, web scripts can be invoked. We have seen different ways to invoke web scripts from a standalone Java class. We have also gone through how to invoke web scripts from Spring-based services and from the command line. We gained knowledge about the possibility of invoking web scripts as JSR-168 portlets and JSF pages. We also saw how the web script framework in Alfresco provides us with ways to deal with some of the limitations of the calling clients.

We are going to learn how to develop Java-backed web scripts in the next chapter.
