Content delivery using Java and Plone CMS


I have a website developed using Java EE and the Seam Framework. We are currently investigating the possibilities to add a CMS in the project.

Reading this article I got the impression that Plone is able to deliver content using Java, but I was not able to find any documentation or case studies yet.

Does anyone here have experience with this match? Possibly with the Seam framework in the mix?


Solution

  • It's possible to use a Plone add-on called Content Mirror to export Plone content to a relational database for use from another system.

    For an example of using Content Mirror to integrate Plone with Django, see http://plone.org/documentation/kb/send-plone-content-to-a-django-web-app-via-contentmirror

    I'm not aware of similar tutorials for integrating with a Java-based system, but presumably the hard part is getting the data into the relational db, which should work the same.
