Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-287: ---------------------------------------- I also included a placeholder README.txt file in the download directory. This is necessary for two reasons: (1) to insure that when the directory is zipped it doesn't just disappear, and (2) to tell the user how to get the appropriate missing jars. The file I put there should be completed before we merge. > An Alfresco connector would be helpful > -------------------------------------- > > Key: CONNECTORS-287 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-287 > Project: ManifoldCF > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Piergiorgio Lucidi > Assignee: Piergiorgio Lucidi > Fix For: ManifoldCF 0.4 > > Original Estimate: 120h > Remaining Estimate: 120h > > The idea of this connector is based on the fact that there are many Alfresco > installations that don't yet support the CMIS protocol (2.1-2.9). > I'm starting to think about the Alfresco Repository Connector. > Alfresco doesn't expose any REST API to execute Lucene queries without adding > some custom WebScripts. I would like to implement a connector that doesn't > need to install any other custom plugin and that it can work with any > Alfresco 2.x out of the box installation. > The unique search service exposed by Alfresco via REST is a keyword search > service, but it is not useful for our connector. > I think that the right way to follow is to use the Alfresco Web Services API, > this API is based on the SOAP protocol and we have a specific Alfresco Web > Services Client provided by Alfresco. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
