Hi Vik,

Have spent a bit more time looking at roller - it's very good!!

In my view a lenya integration would have to accommodate:

3. Styling

Roller uses it's own theme/template mechanism - so we would need to
think of how the module could create a template based on the users lenya
 styling.

… or we just pull the RSS/Atom and feed it into a pipeline. The pipeline + XSLT would be reusable for other feeds.


BTW, would it make sense to allow "mounting" a module at a particular URL? E.g.

  /mypub/authoring/blog/** -> /modules/roller/{1}

Of course that can be done in the publication sitemap, but maybe we can provide a more generic mechanism?


In this context: How do we tell the roller module which Roller application it shall access? Maybe we could use some kind of generic "module configuration document" which is used to mount a module at a particular URL:

  /mypub/authoring/blog.xml

  <?xml version="1.0"?>
  <module id="org.apache.lenya.modules.roller">
    <param name="blogUri" value="http://localhost:8080/roller/myblog"/>
  </module>


In the easiest case, this could generate an Include statement:

  <i:include src="cocoon://modules/roller/?blogUri=…"/>

To support multiple-page apps, we could maybe generate Include statements for "virtual" child documents (which don't exist in the site structure), using the same params as the module base document:

  <i:include src="cocoon://modules/roller/post123.html?blogUri=…"/>


Just some random thoughts …
