entando-plugin-jpcontentscheduler

Content scheduler

Code: jpcontentscheduler

Description

This plugin is used to manage contents temporal windows based on the content's dates.

It is possible to set up rules that:

will move an expired content to a public archive
will unpublish the expired content
will automatically publish the content
will send email notifications to a list of users

Installation

Open the pom.xml of your project: locate the tag toward the end of the file, after the tag; if the dependencies tag does not exist just create a new one just after the closure of the build tag.

Add the following snippet inside the dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.entando.entando.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>entando-plugin-jpcontentscheduler</artifactId>
    <version>${entando.version}</version>
    <type>war</type>
</dependency>

General Settings:

Active boolean used to enable or disable the plugin
SiteCode configuration parameter related to the clustering plugin
Global category mandatory category code that each content will be assigned to when suspended or moved to a generic archive not belonging to a specific category
Content replacement content identifier that will replace the archived/unpublished content
Content model replacement model identifier that will replace the archived/unpublished content

Email Settings:

These settings are used to manage how email notifications are being sent

Users Settings:

Used to define bindings between users and content types. It is possible to specify in a very granular way which user should receive emails for each type of content.

Content Types Settings:

start date attribute this mandatory parameter defines the mapping of the field used for automatic publishing.
end date attribute this mandatory parameter defines the mapping of the field used to determine whether or not the content has expired.
Content replace id this optional parameter overrides the General Settings Content replacement setting.
Content replace model id this optional parameter overrides the General Settings Content model replacement setting.
Suspend mandatory boolean to define the behaviour of an expired content: true unpublishes the content while false archives it.

Developing against local versions of upstream projects (e.g. admin-console, entando-engine).

Full instructions on how to develop against local versions of upstream projects are available in the entando-parent-bom project.
