Subject: RE: [cmis-comment] how to manage hierarchial documents


I suppose you need a compound document capability which is not directly supported by CMIS 1.0.

Yes, one can use relationships to link documents and manage them as a compound entity outside CMIS -- probably underneath CMIS in your case.

 

In any case, the CMIS TC does not make recommendation on how one should map CMIS to a specific CMS.

Subject: [cmis-comment] how to manage hierarchial documents

 

Am new to CMIS so sorry if this is a naïve question.

 

I am trying to map CMIS onto a CMS model where a ‘folder’ is merely a Document that has its ‘may contain other Documents’ flag set to true.  So a Document may have both a content stream and one or more child (file-able) Documents. 

 

The only solution that I see is to only support only one Folder (the root folder) and to manage containment via CMIS Relationships (i.e. a ‘contains’ type relationship).

 

If this is not the correct forum for this sort of question please re-direct me.

 

 

Thanks,

 

 

David
