DMS module

The DMS (document management system) module allows you to store publish, categorize and retrieve documents through AdminCentral. You can assign customizable metadata and assign fine-grained access rights to each document. Like Web content management, the DMS module uses the JSR-283 compliant Jackrabbit repository to provide versioning and searching.

DMS benefits

The Document Management System is integrated into Magnolia. Benefits and features include:

• Browser based user interface.
• Built-in search. Find documents according to type, language and other metadata attributes. Add your own attributes.
• Versioning. Each new upload of the document creates a new version. You can go back to previous versions to track differences.

Configuration

Disable Content-Disposition headers by MIME type

It is possible to configure the handling of Content-Disposition headers for all content in DMS. By default the DMS module is configured to not serve the Content-Disposition header for Flash files to allow inlining of flash content. All other content is served with the Content-Disposition header enabled by default. If you need to disable serving content with Content-Disposition header for other content types, add their MIME types to config:/modules/dms/config/contentDisposition/contentType/rejected.

Disable Content-Disposition headers by path

To disable serving the Content-Disposition header based on path follow these steps:

1. Sign into AdminCentral.
2. Click Configuration.
3. Browse to /modules/dms/config/contentDisposition/
4. Create a new node inline under contentDisposition.
5. Under the new content node, create:
   • Data node class and set its value to info.magnolia.voting.voters.URIStartsWithVoter.
   • Data node pattern and set its value to /dms/inline.
   • Data node not and set its value to true.

This will configure all files in folder inline to be sent without content disposition headers. The configuration should look like this:
