File System Integration (Reflecto)

Reflecto

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)
