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
For Plone 2.5 please use the older 1.2 release of Reflecto

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
