Simple Plone Migration

This is a very simple script to do a **simple** migration from plone content to django. ATNewsItems and PloneArticles are imported into the django model *Article* (with Foreignkey to the django models *File* and *Image*). ATDocuments are imported into the django model *Page*. **Usage** 1. Make sure that the Python version running Zope can import django 2. The django database should be writeable from within the Zope environment 3. Set the shell variable *DJANGO_MODULE_SETTING* to the settings file of the django project you want to import your Plone content to 4. Start the Zope server in the debug modus: $ bin/zopectl debug Then import the python module above, and pass the site you want to migrate to the start function: import simple_migration mysite = app.mysite simple_migration.start(mysite) Found 1253 objects Saved Test Document Type: ATNewsItem ... Hope it helps someone. Used for the migration of **Plone-2.5.3** content in a **Python-2.4.4** environment.
