Idea: A module that makes eZ publish mirror a filesystem directory, by letting a cronjob create/edit/remove eZ publish objects when the content of that directory changes. For instance, copy your word-document to a certain directory, and it is converted to an eZ publish article. To make this, one would have to implement conversion rules in a settings file, for instance directories are converted to Folder objects, text files become Articles, *.jpg, *.gif and *.png become Images, Word documents are converted to html using a command line tool and then become Articles, and so on. The module should save some information about each file that is mirrored, using the md5sum as key, that way we can track when a file is moved. Feel free to implement.. :-)

Good exercise for using classes and objects/nodes from php

A course exercise?
