Software development stage: stable
MassLoader allows to do massive uploads via Zip files. When a zip file is uploaded via MassLoader, its contents are created in the current folder. Content types to use are automatically retrieved based on your Plone products.

What is MassLoader

MassLoader adds an action tab to Folders. This action allows to upload a zip file. The zip file is unpacked into the folder.

Why should I use MassLoader ?

MassLoader is developed in a zope3/Five way. It respects the Plone architecture.
  • MassLoader relies on mimetypes_registry in order to check the content file. Therefore, MassLoader is able to find what kind of content is a file, even if the file doesn't have any extension, based on the file's content.
  • MassLoader relies on content_type_registry in order to know what object should be created in order to handle the file. Therefore, it reacts exactly as a FTP or WebDAV access. The content type to create can be changed via the content_types_registry.
  • MassLoader is developed in a zope3/Five way. It adapts Folder in order to provide its new action.
  • MassLoader has a content size limit, and is able to protect your server from logic bombs.
  • MassLoader can handle any size of zip file, without overload of your server.
