Transmogrifier blueprints for uploading content via xmlrpc to a plone site
Project description
Introduction
transmogrifier.ploneremote is package of transmogrifier blueprints for uploading content via Zope XML-RPC API to a Plone site.
Plone site does not need any modifications, but vanilla Zope XML-RPC is used.
Usage
Five different blueprints are provided.
Remote constructor
TODO: How to guess the type and location to be created
Example:
# # Create remote item on Plone site # [ploneuploader] blueprint = transmogrify.ploneremote.remoteconstructor
Remote schema updater
This will use XML-RPC to call Archetypes setXXX() mutator methods remotely to set field values.
TODO: How to input schema fields
Example:
# # Update the remote item with new extracted content from Sphinx documentation # [schemaupdater] blueprint = transmogrify.ploneremote.remoteschemaupdater
Portal transform
TODO: No idea
Workflow updater
Triggers the state transition of the remote item workflow i.e. publishes the item if it is not public.
Takes the following parameters:
path-key: which blueprint item dictionary key is used to extract the remote path information or the item. Default value path .
transitions-key: which blueprint item dictionary key is used as the transition name for the item.
target: Remote site URL
Redirector
This blueprint adds redirection aliases to those content items that have changed it’s paths during tranmogrification process. It takes into account item’s _orig_path key set by webcrawler blueprint. Redirection uses Products.RedirectionTool Aliases form to add appropriate redirections. So this is required to install that addon in order to make transmogrify.ploneremote.redirector blueprint work.
If path is not equal to orig_path then appropriate aliases is being added to local Plone utility (IRedirectionStorage) using Aliases form.
Takes the following parameters:
path-key: which blueprint item dictionary key is used to extract the remote path information or the item. Default value path .
Example:
# # Add content aliases for content that changed it's paths # [redirector] blueprint = transmogrify.ploneremote.remoteredirector
Making remote site URL configurable
All blueprints take remote site URL parameter. Instead of hardcoding this to your pipeline.cfg you can make it configurable from the command line using the following buildout.cfg snippet to create a helper script:
#
# Recipe to create toplone command.
#
# It will walk through all blueprints defined
# in pipeline.cfg and override their target parameter
# to be a remote Plone site given on the command line.
# This all happeins in initialization= magic.
#
# Also Python logger is initialized to give us verbose
# output. Some blueprints use logging module for the output.
