Roadmap
=======
- Goals for version 2.2:
- Workflow:
- Improve workflow system
- Workflow indexing support. Accessor already works ``{{ document.workflows.all.0.get_current_state }}``. Index recalculation after workflow transition is missing.
- Workflow actions. Predefined actions to be execute on document leaving or entering a state or a transition. Example: "Add to folder X", "Attach tag X".
- Add support for state recipients.
- Add workflow document inbox notification.
- Indexing
- Replace indexing and smart linking template language (use Jinja2 instead of Django's).
- Display/find documents by their current workflow state.
- Goals for version 3.0:
- Distribution:
- Replace UI.
- Debian packages. Limited success so far using https://github.com/astraw/stdeb.
- General goals:
- Notifications:
- Distribution:
- Add support for subscribing to a document's events.
- Add support for subscribing to a document type events.
- Add support for subscribing specific events.
- Debian packages. Limited success so far using https://github.com/astraw/stdeb.
- OCR:
- Downloads:
- Add image preprocessing for OCR. Increase effectiveness of Tesseract.
- Transition from filetransfer package to django-downloadview. This task was started and the view ``common.generics.SingleObjectDownloadView`` was created. The ``document_signatures`` app is the first app to use it.
- Python 3:
- Notifications:
- Complete support for Python3.
- Find replacement for pdfminer (Python3 support blocker). Use pdfminer.six (#257).
- Add support for subscribing to a document's events.
- Add support for subscribing to a document type events.
- Add support for subscribing specific events.
- Simple serving:
- OCR:
- Provide option to serve Mayan EDMS without a webserver (using Tornado o similar). Work started in branch: ``/feature/tornado``
- Add image preprocessing for OCR. Increase effectiveness of Tesseract.
- Improve interface with tesseract.
- Fix pytesseract shortcomings via upstream patches or re-implement. Move to PyOCR.
- Upload wizard:
- Python 3:
- Make wizard step configurable. Create ``WirzardStep`` class so apps can add their own upload wizard steps, instead of the steps being hardcoded in the sources app.
- Add upload wizard step to add the new documents to a folder.
- Complete support for Python3.
- Find replacement for pdfminer (Python3 support blocker). Use pdfminer.six (#257).

- Simple serving:
- Provide option to serve Mayan EDMS without a webserver (using Tornado o similar). Work started in branch: ``/feature/tornado``
- Source code:
- Implement Developer certificate of origin: http://developercertificate.org/
- Upload wizard:
- Make wizard step configurable. Create ``WirzardStep`` class so apps can add their own upload wizard steps, instead of the steps being hardcoded in the sources app.
- Add upload wizard step to add the new documents to a folder.
- Other
- Use a sequence and not the document upload date to determine the document version sequence. MySQL doesn't store milisecond value in dates and if several version are uploaded in a single second there is no way to know the order or which one is the latests. This is why the document version tests include a 2 second delay. Possible solution: http://schinckel.net/2015/05/17/django-second-autofield/
- Include external app Mayan-EXIF into main code.
- Convert all views from functions to class based views (CBV).
- Increase test coverage.
- Mock external services in tests. For example the ``django_GPG`` app key search and receive tests.
- Pluggable icon app. Make switching icon set easier.
- Reduce dependency on binary executables for a default install.
- Find replacement for ``cssmin`` & ``django-compressor``.
- Find replacement for ``python-gnupg``. Unstable & inconsistent API.
- Google docs integration. Upload document from Google Drive.
- Get ``dumpdata`` and ``loaddata`` working flawlessly. Will allow for easier backups, restores and database backend migrations.
- Make more view asynchronous:
- trash can emptying.
- document delete view.
- Add support for loading settings from environment variables, not just settings/local.py.
- Add generic list ordering. ``django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectMixin`` (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/class-based-views/mixins-multiple-object/#django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectMixin) now supports an ``ordering`` parameter.
- Workaround GitLab CI MySQL test errors. GitLab MySQL's container doesn't support UTF-8 content.
- Add support for downloading the OCR content as a text file.
- Add support to convert any document to PDF. https://gitlab.mister-muffin.de/josch/img2pdf
- Add support for combining documents.
- Add support for splitting documents.
- Add task viewer.
- Add new document source to get documents from an URL.
- Document overlay support. Such as watermarks. https://gist.github.com/umrashrf/8616550
- Add support for metadata mapping files. CSV file containing filename to metadata values mapping, useful for bulk upload and migrations.
- Add support for registering widgets to the home screen.
- Merge mimetype and converter apps.
- Add entry in About menu to check latest Mayan EDMS version via PyPI.
- Add GPG key generation.
- Add documentation section on editing the settings/local.py file.
- Add documentation section with warning about using runserver.
- Replace ``urlpatterns = patterns( ''``, with Python lists. Django recommendation for post 1.7.
- If SourceColumn label is None take description from model. Avoid unnecessary translatable strings.
- Metadata widgets (Date, time, timedate).
- Datatime widget: https://github.com/smalot/bootstrap-datetimepicker
- Separate Event class instances with a parent namespace class: EventNamespace.
- Add events for document signing app (uploaded detached signateure, signed document, deleted signature)
- A configurable conversion process. Being able to invoke different binaries for file conversion, as opposed to the current libreoffice only solution.
- A tool in the admin interface to mass (re)convert the files (basically the page count function, but then applied on all documents).
- Find solution so that documents in watched folders are not processed until they are ready. Use case scanning directly to scanned folders.
