transmogrifier without plone

Question

I'd like to user c.transmogrifier outside plone. How far is it from being plone-independent?

Actually I see very few plone-related imports and plone-only-specific code inside the trunk so that it seems feasible.

Is there any roadmap or any todo/advice list for getting this?

Answer 1

I've created a runner for executing transmogrifier outside of plone via a commandline tool. At the moment that runner is part of funnelbweb. You can use the funnelweb script to run your own pipelines via "funnelweb --pipeline=mypipeline.cfg" However we are in the process of migrating that code into a general module called mr.migrator. Mr.migrator will be both a commandline runner for transmogrifier pipelines and also a Plone UI to do the same.

Answer 2

collective.transmogrifier only depends on CMFCore, not Plone. I do have plans to make that dependency optional though, I simply haven't had the time to do so yet.
