Description
Reflecto is a tool to incorporate part of the file system into a Plone site as Plone content.
Reflecto gives the effect of a window to browse a defined part of the local filesystem and access the files in it as if they were Plone file objects.
Files in the mapped parts of the filesystem are indexed and searchable in Plone's catalog, copy–/pastable and renamable. They can be added from the filesystem or through Plone. (Content added through the filesystem and not through Plone must trigger a reindex to be shown — this can for example be done by clicking a button in the UI)
Requirements
- Plone 3.0 or later

Notes
Filename policies
Filenames must be valid Zope ids. In addition, filenames starting with
a dot, or with @@ are also deemed invalid. Files with names not matching
these criteria will be ignored.
This means that filenames must basically be ASCII characters only, and not
start with aq_, '@@', . or _, not end with __ nor contain a +.
Indexing
Textfiles are indexed by default. To index non-text files install TextIndexNG3
