Enhanced attribute synchronization in a content management system

摘要

Embodiments of the invention provide a method, system, and article of manufacture for enhanced attribute synchronization in a content management system (CMS). One-way synchronization rules associated with objects stored in the CMS may be applied to synchronize both the substantive content and/or metadata included in a particular data object (e.g., an XML document) with attributes maintained by the CMS. The one-way synchronization rules may synchronize information stored in the data object with information stored in the CMS attributes. Alternatively, the one-way synchronization rule may synchronize information stored in the CMS attributes with information stored in the data object.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium to perform a one-way synchronization between a data object managed by a content management system (CMS) and CMS attributes related to the data object maintained by the CMS, the non-transitory computer-readable medium containing a program executable to:
select the data object to be synchronized; identify one or more one-way synchronization rules to apply to the selected data object and the CMS attributes, wherein the one-way synchronization rule synchronizes information stored in the data object with information stored in the CMS attributes or vice versa; and synchronize the selected data object and the CMS attributes by operation of one or more computer processors when executing the program, and by applying the one or more one-way synchronization rules to the selected data object and the CMS attributes.
