Initial version of Alkacon OAMP DocCenter module available

June 15, 2009

The first version of the OAMP DocCenter Module is now available.

The OAMP DocCenter Module, which is available now for download from alkacon.com, extends an OpenCms installation with the capability to easily create highly configurable download areas (similar to apache directory listings) with the look and feel of your custom template where editors just have to upload documents to make them accessible.

Features:

• A new resource type “Alkacon Document Center” allows to create a new document center on the fly.
• Within a download center the files are served similar to an apache web server with directory browsing enabled but with the look & feel of the template used and more features.
• Documents may be assigned in categories.
• Full text search may be configured for each document center.
• Document types are identified by icons. These icons may be customized and / or extended by further types. Also the link titles for these documents may be customized.
• New and Modified documents are marked with a special overlay icon. This may be turned off. The time range for modified and for new documents (related to date last modified and date created attributes) may be configured globally.
• The same content may be offered in different forms (.docx, .pdf,...) which will be offered via different links to types of the listed document.
• ... and many more.

The module is available with full source code and documentation.

All Alkacon OAMP modules are released as full Open Source under the GNU GPL version 3. The source code of the modules is freely available in the public CVS of cvs.opencms.org.
