ExternalSiteCatalog allows you to index and search external sites in a Plone site.

ExternalSiteCatalog is a web crawler that can index external sites and make them searchable in Plone. You can specify the sites to index in a Plone Configlet, and directly index them from Plone, or let a scheduler do the job. Have a look at some of the screenshot in the doc folder of the product to get a first impression of what it looks like. Searching the external sites is done in a special portlet that is installed with ExternalSiteCatalog. External sites are not searchable in the normal Plone catalog, but are only available in a separate catalog in the portal_externalcatalog tool.

Direct indexing

All external sites are configured in the ExternalSiteCatalog configlet.
If you want to index external sites immediately, you can do so after
defining all the parameters, selecting your site, and clicking on
the "index" button in the configlet.

Crawling external sites regularly

If you want external sites to be crawled regularly every day or month,
youll have to do some extra work. Make sure to install PloneMaintenance
starting from version 1.3. Make sure that you are also regularly calling
PloneMaintenance from cron or one of the Zope schedulers.

Follow the installation instructions in PloneMaintenance!

Have a look at the portal_maintenance tool in the Zope Management
interface! It contains a lot of useful information!

Console indexing utility

The console indexing utility is a bit more complicated than doing everything
from Plone. In many cases you dont have the resources to administrate an
external utility, but if you can afford it, this tool gives you the possibility
to decouple the long running work of fetching external sites from Zope.
Basically, you can be sure that there is no Zope thread blocked with
crawling external sites for a long time. Zope is only called from the external
tool when it should index a page, so there is still some load on the
Zope server!

Please note that this external tool is not making use of the information
entered in the Plone configlet. It is completely independent! It also does
not make use of PloneMaintenance, and it is up to you to configure and
call it with a scheduler like cron.

Hierarchical Grid Site Managment is a front-end to the database that keeps information about the grid sites (clusters), their admins, email and phone contacts, other contact people, site nodes and resources, downtimes etc.
These sites are organized by country and countries are organized by regions. The admins of each site can also update the information about the site.
To summarize the design, the applications supports only one GOC (Grid Operation Center), assuming that it is used for only one grid. It can have several ROCs (Regional Operation Centers), each ROC can have several countries, and each country can have several sites.
Each ROC, country and site can have one (or more) admins, which are able to modify the data of the structure (record) which they admin (ROC, country or site), and to manage substructures as well.
Managing substructures means that they can also validate/appoint the admins of the substructures, e.g. a country admin can validate/appoint the site admins. The admins are recognized automatically by their certificate (without the need to use passwords).
For each structure (ROC, country, site), contact info about it are stored, including email and phone. For the sites, general info about it are stored, contact info, info about its resources and capacities, site contacts, site downtimes, and info about its nodes. For more details see the DB design: hgsm_design.sql.
In the pages where a user has edit rights (in the node where he is admin and in all the subnodes), an Edit button is displayed. Clicking in this button, the page will be displayed in the edit mode, where the fields of information can be modified, the rows of the lists can be edited or deleted, new rows can be added in the lists, etc. The id and the admins of a node can be modified only by an admin of the parent node.
Main features:
- Has a database with information about a hierarchical structure (GOC-->ROCs-->Countries-->Sites-->Nodes).
- This information is published to the www by a web application.
- Each node of the tree has also one or more admins, which can modify the data of the node which they admin, and also the data of the subnodes.
- The admins of a node can appoint (set/modify/delete) the admins of the subnodes and leave up to them the modification/update of the subnode information (to make their job easier and for decentralization).
- Authentication (recognizing that somebody is admin of a node and has the rights to modify it) is done automatically by the application, using personal certificates, which are issued and verified by a certain certification authority. This means that everybody that is an admin, must have a valid certificate installed in his browser.
- The application also supports i18n and l10n (is multilingual, can be translated into several languages).
Enhancements:
- This release includes full internationalization and localization support for Albanian and Croatian.
- It also contains bdii.php?type1+type2+type3 and ldap2mysql.py the scripts.
- Some small improvements and bugfixes were made.
