There is PHP code around already for it, apparently.

Hi.

You may already be aware but there is some information and code available on Alfresco-Moodle integration in the following forum threads:

http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=84331

http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=77408

Indeed, a couple of Moodle partners, Bryan Williams and Mike Waters, seem to have already done some work on this.

Also, Thanh Le seems to have made considerable progress using JSR170 interface to link Moodle and Alfresco, though the thread seems to have petered out recently.

Hope this helps

Hello - I'm keen to get this underway - should I be voting for it?

Also, I can help with the setup of alfresco and hooking it up with the PHP, and hopefully get a better idea of the Repo API on the Moodle side.

cheers

-Mike

and for the record, I' not a moodle partner - but I used to work for one.

Thanks guys. Mike, you're very welcome to drop in some afternoon with your laptop and we can have a bit of a brainstorm about how it should look.

Dongsheng's pretty busy on core stuff (like Repository API documentation!) but I can safely say this plugin will be in the 2.0 release.

I'm trying to get this working on trunk.

There seems to be a problem with the repository admin screen getting stuck in a loop.

The repository doesn't show Alfresco Share "Sites". This can be fixed by checking for "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/site/1.0}sites" (top level Sites folder) and "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/site/1.0}site" (individual sites) in repository.class.php in get_listing() similar to the check for folders and files (in fact I just added two more filter variables and added "OR" clauses to the check for folders to treat them the same as folders).

Hi,

It appears that Danny's suggested code wasn't implemented correctly.

In the latest versions of alfresco community (3.4.0) and moodle (2.1.1+), the 'Sites' folders do not appear from within the file picker.

We discovered that the line:
$sites_filter = "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}sites";
should be:
$sites_filter = "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/site/1.0}sites";

Once done, the sites are visible to the file picker.

Michael
