Project Summary

The project aims to ease the management of digital documents by providing a cross platform document management system that the users can run locally or be hosted on a server. The project will enable the users of the application to tag, categorize, search and manage their documents. The system is targeted at people in academics (i.e. Researchers, Teachers and students) Enterprises and anyone that need to manage a large number of digital documents such as E-books, bills, business critical documents, reports, cases, projects, drafts, charters, quotations etc. The users shall be able to view supported file types using the application and will be able to version their documents from within the application. The ability to search for files will save users time and will enable them to quickly find any file that is indexed in the application using supported parameters (tags, metadata etc.).

Project Objectives

• To create a modular cross platform document management system based on modern technologies.

• To ease the management of large amounts of documents.

• To provide support for automatic content-based classification and tagging of documents.

• To provide users with the ability to view and edit metadata of supported document types.

• To provide a unified interface to users for managing and accessing documents.

• To provide users the ability to search their documents.

• To provide users the ability to tag and version their documents.

• To provide users the flexibility and choice of a hosted solution or local installation.

Project Implementation Method

The project will be implemented in python and will supply an api against which views can be developed. the project will enable its users to run it on their personal computers as an normal application or host it on a server to which multiple clients can connect and interact with. The project will consist of services which will be coordinated and controlled through the provided interface. The project will use serializartion and message passing where necessary to enaple inter process/node communication. The system will provide full text searching capabilites against enabled documents of supported types. there will be three general parts to the system: the core, the API and the views (the applications or interfaces used to contorl and interact with the system).

Benefits of the Project

With the ever-increasing popularity of digital documents there is an increasing need for effective management of these documents. This is due to multiple reasons, namely the wide availability of literature in the form of PDFs, EPUBS and other popular digital book formats and the portability of these files. Most solutions available for this problem are proprietary. The available open-source alternatives are subpar and lack major features some of them also suffer from deprecating tech stacks and refuse to update them[1][2]. The proposed application shall overcome these issues to provide a complete experience for its users. The application shall cater to the needs of enterprises as well as individuals. We aim to provide a free and “libre” alternative to anyone seeking effective management of their digital documents that they can fully control each aspect of.

The system will enable its users full control over all bussiness critical document, additionally it will provide monitoring and management capabilities which will help its users stay on schedule by tracking progress on projects accross the organization.

On an individual level it will enable the users to organize their information and ease its retreval. in the future we aim to implement an intigrated knoledgebase system into the Modocs system sothat the information stored can become even more accessable and useful. stage one of this will enable the users to add information in to the knoledgebase manually and stage 2 will have the system automatically scan the marked documents for information which it will process and load in to the knoledgebase automatically.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

A modular document management system with the ability to edit and modufy supported document format metadata which can be deployed on a server or be run as a stand alone application that will posses automatic document classification and taging capabilites along with fulltext search for enabled documents in order to ease information retreval from the system. it will provide prmission management and versioning capabilities also.
