Open Calais AutoTag

A Custom datatype for use in Umbraco CMS. This usercontrol generates a list of keywords/tags using various providers; currently OpenCalais - http://www.opencalais.com/ and TagTheNet - http://tagthe.net - making the task of categorising your new articles, blog posts or pages much quicker.

Runs on Umbraco v4.5+

Current functionality:

  • Generate list of possible tags/keywords
  • Ability to add your own tags
  • Add/Remove tags previously added
  • Pick which tag provider service you wish to use (via a config entry)
  • Implement your own tag service and have it seemless integrate into umbraco
  • Ability to exclude certain properties from the generation service or to specify which properties to use in the form of comma seperated configuration values.

***************************************************************************************************************

To use your own tag provider, simply implement the GrailTechnology.AutoTags.Providers.ITagProvider interface, and set the Provider config value in ~/config/OpenCalaisAutotag/autotags.config to the format "Qualified.Type, AssemblyName", e.g:
 
<Provider>MySite.Data.Extensions.MyTagProvider, Mysite.Data</Provider>
 
To use new TagTheNet Service, set this value to:
 
<Provider>GrailTechnology.AutoTags.Provider.TagTheNetService, GrailTechnology.AutoTags.Providers</Provider>
