Shankar Venkatachalam and J. Rajendran have published a new project on OpenNTF, called SCN ID Vault Scanner for a Hybrid Company. Below is their short description. Read the documentation to learn more.

"The tool is programmed to compare the Company directory and the .csv file(IBM SCN Vault users list ) to identify, how many users doesn't have their ID file on the vault on a single document . The tool will also identify user's whose ID files are not in the synchronization state , because of mis-match of password.

Customers need to create PMR with Lotus Support, to receive the .csv file that contains the list of users who have their ID file in the vault .

This tool will report the company administrators a list of users, who don't have their ID file on the SCN Vault database."

Eric Morentin and Jonathan Booth have published a new project, called WCM Sample Custom HTML Editor with CodeMirror.

"In IBM WebSphere Portal v8.5 a new extension point was exposed within the Web Content Manager (WCM) Authoring portlet to support replacing all HTML fields with a custom editor.

The extension works in the same way as all other custom fields of WCM. The extension is documented with a sample here.

CodeMirror is described on their web site as “a versatile text editor implemented in JavaScript for the browser. It is specialized for editing code, and comes with a number of language modes and addons that implement more advanced editing functionality.”

This sample includes all the files necessary to integrate CodeMirror into WCM and to deploy it onto your portal server."

Thomas Steinheber and Jonathan Booth have published a new project, called RSS Sample for IBM Digital Data Connector in WebSphere Portal. See below for their description and check out the screenshots.

"Starting with Version 8.0.0.1 CF11 IBM WebSphere Portal includes the Digital Data Connector framework. It introduces the pattern of using IBM Web Content Manager design components to render data from arbitrary sources such as Atom feeds and RSS feeds.

This sample builds on top of this pattern to show the ease of integration of RSS feeds without the need for writing code. As a consequence, designers can focus on styling the remote content and create a visually appealing experience of seemlessly integrated remote data.

For details on the IBM Digital Data Connector, please visit the IBM Digital Data Connector Documentation to familiarize with the technical concepts used in this sample. The integration capabilities that DDC provides are very flexibile and implementors can have full control on how data sources are accessed.

This RSS sample uses the generic XML Digital Data Connector Plug-In to render RSS Feeds which are served as XML without writing Java code.

For questions, feedback and comments on the IBM Digital Data Connector, please visit our Digital Data Connector Community on DeveloperWorks."
