OK, so definitions in the related extension points control what can be
transformed and what should be used to transform - this I can
understand. What I'm not getting, however, is what causes one of these
transformations to happen?
You could use DocumentModifier (nuxeo-platform-modifier) that is used to
start a transformation using an apropriate transformation plugin.
I would expect that, if I add a document to Nuxeo who's mime type
matches one defined under the
'org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.transform.service.TransformService' extension
point 'plugins', that there would be something like a 'Transform' tab
in Nuxeo. I would then expect to select the type of document to
transform to and a 'Transform' button to initiate the actual transform.
Then, either the transformed document is shown in this tab for people
to download and use, or the transformed documents ends up as another
document living next to the original in the workspace.
Is this correct?
Also, is there any kind of documentation on what needs to be set up
for the predefined transformations to work? I notice there is a
requirement on Open Office Server (that I assume performs the actual
transformation), but there seems to be no information on how to set
this up. For example, what is the end-to-end process to get the PDF
transformation to work?

Hello,
you can do a repeated search on "transform" on this index, you'll
find all the related extension points plus some explanations :
http://public.dev.nuxeo.com/~lgodard/nxpointdoc/_index_extension_points.html
as a complelment, in
nuxeo-platform-transform-plugins/src/main/resources you have an
exemple of a WORDML transformation plugin
If you take time, you 'll also find somewhere all the registerd
transformation plugin (se the contribution link of the previous doc
for instance), maybe you will find what you look for.

Craig Pugsley a écrit :
We'd really like to figure out how to get document transformation
working in Nuxeo. Ideally, we would like to understand the framework
in Nuxeo for document transformation and get hold of an example of
how to define a transformation. We're especially interested in
understanding how to transform from a Word document to something
more malleable, for example XML or a Nuxeo Note document.
Thanks for your time.
