Batch import of files into the Documents Management System
Project description
This package can read OS directories to find files to import. A metadata file can be associated to each file.
It creates for each file a dms item containing the file as a dmsmainfile.
Introduction
This package provides a configuration view, where you can define:
a path to a directory to process, called the root directory
a path to a directory, where to move processed files
a table where filename prefixes can be associated to portal types
The root directory can contain a directory structure that will be followed to place in imported dms content. This directory structure must already exist in Plone.
Each file can be joined to a metadata file in json format (A directory like containing attributes).
Example files structure:
“folder 1” / “file1.pdf”
“folder 1” / “file1.pdf.metadata”
“folder 1” / “folder2” / “file2.pdf”
