Apache Lenya is an open source Java/XML content management system. Features include revision control, site management, scheduling, search, WYSIWYG editors, and workflow.
Authoring features:
- Browser-based WYSIWYG editors that validate input against a Relax NG Schema. Ships with the BXE and Kupu editors out of the box.
- Pages that are being edited are automatically locked for other users, preventing conflicting changes to the same page.
- Each edit of a page creates a new revision. It is possible to revert to any previous revision of a page.
Workflow features:
- A customizable workflow engine that uses an XML format to define workflows. Standard one- and two-stage workflows are included. Users can be notified by E-mail of pending approvals.
- All workflow steps are logged, providing an audit trail.
Internationalization features:
- Pages can be created in multiple languages with no impact on your site structure.
- The user interface is currently localized in Spanish, Italian, French, German, English, Dutch and Japanese.
Layout features:
- Supports XHTML+CSS templating.
- The navigation framework automatically creates navigation items such as menus, breadcrumb paths and tabs. A sitemap can be created.
- Produces URLs without request parameters and is thus accessible for search engines.
Site Management features:
- Allows you to move, copy, rename, archive or delete individual pages or whole parts of your site within a site view that shows you the pages of your site in an Explorer-like view.
- Each page has tabs for access to meta data, assets, workflow status, revisions, access control and scheduling.
- Each page can have Dublin Core metadata assigned.
- Checks if parent pages of a page to be published are already live to avoid inconsistent sites.
- Sites can be served dynamically by the authoring server (for small deployments) or another servlet container. It is also possible to export content statically or to use Apache as a proxy.
Security features:
- Each page can be protected by SSL. Protect just the parts of your site that need protection for best performance.
- Users can be authenticated against an LDAP server.
- Access can also be controlled by IP ranges.
Apache Lenya is based on Apache Coccon. All Cocoon components can be used to develop customized functionality. It also uses Ant for portable scripting; and Apache Lucene is integrated for full-text and field search.
A Windows Installer makes installation on Windows a 3-click process.
