Das folgende Tutorial gibt eine kurze Einfuehrung in das Content Management System Apache Lenya. Wir betrachten typische Anwendungsfaelle, wie zum Beispiel ein neues Dokument kreieren, bearbeiten und publizieren
To create a new document goto the File->New
Document menu entry. You'll get a new screen that asks you
for an id and a name for this new document. The id will be used
internally as an identifier for the document and the name will be
used in the navigation. Let's use "foo" as id and "Foo" as the
name of the new document. Now press Create. You will
be redirected back to the page where you originally invoked the
creation and you'll notice that the new document "Foo" now shows
up as a sub-document of the Tutorial document in the
navigation.
This illustrates the fact that a new document is always created as a sub-document of the document you're currently looking at. You also notice how the navigation is built automatically.
To look at the newly created document click on the "Foo" entry in the navigation. You'll notice that the "Foo" document already contains some content. It was created from a sample XML document. To change this sample content you will have to edit the document. You can pick on of the following web-based WYSIWYG editors:
Pick your choice of editor (based on your platform) and start
editing the newly created document by selecting the
Edit->Edit with BXE menu button. The Lenya menu will
disappear and the Bitflux toolbar will appear instead. You can use
the left mouse button to get a context sensitive menu from where
you can copy, cut and paste. You're also able to insert new
elements into the document from the context sensitive menu. Once
you're done with all your changes, press
Save&Exit to get back. You'll see your changes in
the document.
Once you are satisfied with the content of the document you want to publish it to make it visible in the live area.
The default publication has a simple workflow configured which
involves an author and a reviewer. The author creates and edits a
new document and submits it for approval. The reviewer (obviously
:-)) reviews the document and publishes it so that it will appear
on the live site.
The user lenya (which you are probably currently logged in as) has
the role edit, i.e. he can create new documents and submit them
for approval (with Workflow->Submit for review). The
user alice has the role review which allows her to approve,
i.e. publish documents.
In order to publish your newly created document simply press
Workflow->Sumbit (as user lenya) to submit the
current document for approval. Now log out
(File->Logout), log back in as alice (use the same
password as for user lenya) and publish the current document by
selecting Workflow->Publish. You will get a
confirmation screen where you confirm your intention to publish
the document "Foo" by pressing Publish Now. You might
have to publish the parent document ("Tutorial") first, as the
"Foo" document will not be published if the parent document is not
in the live area yet.
To check how the "Foo" document looks
like in the live site click on the live tab in the
Lenya menu. This will open a new browser window showing you the
live site.
Apache Lenya allows you to publish a document at a specific
date. To do this select the Workflow->Publish menu
entry. Now instead of pressing Publish, specify the
date and the time at which you wish to publish the document and
press Schedule. Your document will be published at
the specified date. Use the Scheduler tab in the site
area to see the pending tasks and their status.
Every time you edit a document and exit the editor a new
revision of the document is stored. Old versions of the document
are kept and you can go back to an older version if you want to
undo some of the changes you applied to it. To see all available
versions of the current document press
Tools->Rollback. This will give you a list of all
previous versions. You can view a specific old version or rollback
to a specific old version by clicking on the appropriate links.
