This project aims at adding
CMIS support to Foswiki. This will implement CMIS client bindings to access data stored in an Enterprise Content Management systems like Alfresco, Documentum and Sharepoint in a standardised way.
- Phase 1: implement
WebService::Cmis
- Phase 2: leverage CMIS to wiki application land by implementing a %CMIS macro
- Phase 3: add access to CMIS objects to browse and create new documents and folders on the ECM server
- Phase 4: add a CMIS storage handler to store attachments on the ECM server.
- Phase 5: implement a CMIS connector for SolrPlugin for full and incremental indexing

Current Status
- a perl library WebService::Cmis has been implemented and tested against Alfresco: available at https://github.com/MichaelDaum/cmis-perl
- this module will be published on CPAN soon
- development has primarily been done against an Aflresco Server. this will be extended by covering other common ECM servers out there.
- a %CMIS macro for Foswiki has been implemented to leverage WebService::Cmis to wiki applications
- a basic browse and search interface to Alfresco has been implementet using the %CMIS interface; this needs serious improvements before calling it a done job.
