searchable information

[kgdms]

I\'m importing several years of badly managed documentation and im wondering what does OpenKM actualy look at when importing a file?

file name , contents, file attributes? ie versions, author (in case of office docs)

or do keywords and other meta data have to be added after the files are imported?

On API create a document is a separed method than setting properties.

Take a look how openkm runs now, first you create a new document an after it you can set some properties, you don\'t do it at the same time, it\'s a sequential order.

Using actual API, and Webservices, you could create a new class that uses create and set properties sequentially, and instantiate it to create ( document and properties at the same time -> from you view point -> not he internal that allways must be sequential ).

This solves your question ?

im trying to get past the limitation of being unable to search by folders.

could a documents properties be updated in mass?
such as every document under a certain node be given a keyword (foldername)

Actually you can\'t

so there is no way to search via folders apart from xpath in adv search?

im just trying to find a way to add the foldername as a searchable keyword.

I already have a filestore where documents are sorted in categories via their folder structure and their individual name has no real bearing on their contents.

I think it would be a great feature as editing each document individually makes the system time consuming.
