==================================

Creates Plone content objects from EasyForm submissions.

Features

--------

`Easyform `_ action to create Plone/Dexterity content items.

Converters to meet the target fields requirements for example a data_handler to add timezone info to be able to create events.

Documentation

-------------

- Install the addon within your Plone site

- From the actions menu choose edit actions and add a new action

  ``Create dexterity content``

- Choose a location where the items should be create

- Choose the desired content type

- Map your form field ids to the item field ids and add converters as needed

Available converters

--------------------

``plaintext_to_intellitext``

  converts plain text to html

``datetime_with_timezone``

  adds portal default timezone to datetime

``file_converter``

  takes a fileupload and converts it to a named blob file,

Mapping

-------

Field mapping format: ``formFieldId itemFieldId:converter``.

The ``converter`` is optional, value is taken as is.

Latter implies value types are matching in EasyForm (form field) and target schema (item feld)!

Make sure you have at least eiter the ``title`` or ``id`` mapping defined, because it will also be used to create the id of the item!

Example::

    topic title

    comments text:plaintext_to_intellitext

    event_start start:datetime_with_timezone

    video_upload file:fileupload_converter

Note

----

There have been ZODB transaction issues, turn off versioning for easyform as a workaround.
