I have created a Joomla Website and installed all the necessary extensions and plugins. Basically you need to modify and customize the functionality of two Joomla extension I have already installed . Lot’s of the configuration can be done within the extensions itself but we also need to create some functionality.
The two extensions are:
– DOCMAN (Document Management System): http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/directory-a-documentation/downloads/10958
– PDF Indexer (Indexes all the content of the PDF): http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/search-a-indexing/site-search/741
The goal of the project is when we upload the documents through DOCMAN, the PDF INDEXER should index all the PDF Content in a database, which should be searchable.
Requirment:
– When you upload a PDF file, all the content of the PDF has to be indexed in a database, which should be searchable (there’s already a PDF indexer component installed, you can use that to index the PDF content)
– Search Box: when we search using the DOCMan’s search box, it should search all the PDF content and display all the PDF files that matches the search. We should also make sure that the permission will restrict the search. For example if I’m logged in as a Group A user then when I search for a PDF document, it should only show the PDF that’s allowed for Group A.
– DOCMAN’s Permission: We may need to change some functionality in the way permission works
– You also need to make some changes on the Website design according to the design I provide, but we’ll do the design changes at the end once everything is done.
– Beside this requirement, some other small functionality changes might need as the project starts (around 20%)
Optional Features (which we might need later but not now):
– Ability to view the PDF Online (Optional)
– Allow users to choose notification method of new docs (Optional)
– Allow user to change their Login Password (Optional)
So, once we are ready to start, the first thing we need to do is work on the PDF indexer. I would like to finish this project as soon as possible.
Additional Info…
DOCMAN’s Permission (For Multiple Group): We need to change some functionality in the way permission works, For example we should be able to assign permission for a particular documents or a Group of documents for multiple users or multiple user group, which means if I have a documents in “Folder A (Category)”, I can assign that document category to be downloaded by multiple group of users: User Group A and User Group B but not to User Group C
