Cmis Import Base

Import Provider Grooper.CMIS

Serves as the base class for providers that import CMIS Document and CMIS Folder objects from a CMIS Repository.

Remarks

The CMIS Import base class enables importing content from external CMIS Repository sources into Grooper. It provides core logic for connecting to a repository, selecting items to import, and handling import modes such as full copy, sparse, or link-only.

Configuration and Usage

  • Select a CMIS Repository as the source for import.
  • Optionally assign a Content Type to imported documents.
  • Choose an import mode to control whether content, properties, or only links are imported.
  • Configure disposition options such as deleting or moving items after import, and updating properties on import.

Key Behaviors

  • Supports both standard and sparse import modes for efficient high-volume ingestion.
  • Can move or delete source items after import, useful for polling scenarios with the Import Watcher service.
  • Allows updating properties on imported items using key-value pairs.
  • Handles name conflicts and folder disposition when moving items.

Usage Scenarios

  • Importing documents and folders from a CMIS Repository into Grooper for processing.
  • Performing scheduled or watched imports with automatic cleanup or organization of source content.
  • Supporting both full-content and sparse (link-only) document ingestion for performance and storage optimization.

> For most use cases, you will use a derived provider such as Import Query Results or Import Descendants, which implement specific item selection logic.
