This repository contains the Buildout configuration for Directory, the centralized contact directory platform used by Walloon local authorities (pouvoirs locaux). It is part of the broader Smartweb ecosystem and integrates seamlessly with Plone 6-based Smartweb sites.
The Directory platform provides a shared environment where multiple local authorities can create, manage, and publish contact information (services, persons, roles, etc.). These directories can then be synchronized and displayed on Smartweb websites.
This buildout.directory repository contains the complete Buildout setup to install, configure, and deploy the centralized Plone 6 instance used to manage contact directories.
- Provide a central point of truth for contact data.
- Allow reuse and synchronization of contact information across multiple local authority sites.
- Enable integration with Smartweb via Solr or REST APIs.
Smartweb websites fetch directory data from this centralized instance, enabling:
- Cross-site display of up-to-date contact information
- Centralized management of persons, organizations, and services
- Better performance and consistency through external Solr indexing or REST API usage
Feel free to open issues or submit pull requests if you find bugs or want to improve the setup.
