Transmogrifying and Time Traveling Content into Plone

Terry Gilliam Room

Talk details

Language: English
Level: Intermediate
Summary:

One fundamental need of a CMS is Content - and when deploying a new Plone site, often there is already a lot o content, lying elsewhere (even in older Plone instances) that have to be uploaded to the new site.

This talk explains the Transmogrifier set of utilities to bring content from plain HTML, PHP sites, raw SQL databases, legacy Plone systems, into new content into a Plone site - and remodeling it to be more "humane" in the process (like in de-referencing associated content, integrating sparse images with their respective content and so on)

The making of and usage of sc.transmogrifier and its facilities for creating new transmogrifier blueprints is explained, as are the hacks made into it for allowing content to be fetched out of the desired creation order  - for example, getting News Items before their container object - and having them created in order in the target site
