Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-54:
---------------------------------------
ManifoldCF in Action required a simple file-based repository to be written, and
an output connector to that repository also. It's not so simple because the
metadata and acl information also needs to go into the file system for this to
be useful. I'm therefore going to close this ticket since I can't think of any
realistic use for the proposed connector other than testing.

> Right now, the unit tests are limited because there is no way to check that
> the "indexed" files actually do get indexed. The addition of a filesystem
> output connector would allow more complete tests to be constructed. In
> addition, such a connector might well be useful in its own right.
> The connector would need to convert URI's into relative file paths, but other
> than that there's really nothing very tricky about it. Configuration
> information is minimal; just the root path of the output is all that's needed.
