Apogee

Hi all,

Development on Apogee (a Rich Client Application for Nuxeo ECM) was started.
The application is in early development. For now the following is working:

1. Running Apogee as Eclipse plugin or RCP application
2. Connecting to remote ECM applications
3. Managing multiple ECM application (only one can be active at a given 
time)
4. Browsing ECM application repositories - note that editors (or 
documents view) are not yet impl.
5. Creating and removing documents.

Editors (document views) are not yet implemented.

Things to be done soon:
1. Icon decoration
2. Editor (doc views) infrastructure
3. Search view
4. Implement all actions and menu contexts
5. Login management
6. Actions filtering based on user right.

These functionalities are expected for the end of the next week.
Then we will have a complete Apogee base on top of which  we will build 
the rest of optional plugins features (as separate plugins)
as for example an workflow views, relations views, audit views etc

Offline (embeded) ECM applications will be available later.

If you want to test it you need Eclipse 3.3, the maven eclipse and 
polarion SVN plugins and a Nuxeo5 application deployed in JBoss

In order to checkout needed projects:

Get the eclipse PSF file from 
https://svn.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/sandbox/Apogee/org.nuxeo.apogee/apogee.psf
In eclipse go to File > Import > Team > Team Project Set and choose 
there the apogee PSF file

Eclipse will checkout all the projects for you. (there are 13 - some of 
them are Nuxeo5 projects - including NXRuntime and some api modules)
To run Apogee as a RCP application go intto org.nuxeo.apogee project, 
open Apogee.product file and click on "Launch the product"

To run the eclipse plugin version create a run configuration for an 
ecl;ipse application - specify all needed dependencies on the plugins tab
and click on run.

After launching the application under the Nuxeo ECM  perspective you 
will see 2 views - a docuyment navigator and an application registry
Under the applications view click on add (the + button) and select 
"Remote Platform" then Next and Finsih
(For now only the Remote Platform option is working)
Select the new ECM platform you defined  and then click on start (the 
green arrow)
Apogee will connect to that ECM and in the left view you will see the 
repositories defined inside the ECM platform you connected to.
You can start browse the content. You can create and delete files.
Be warned that you are connected as administrator!
