I am looking for a solution to generate a list with alle files stored in a site repository. That is a feature the user wants to check if every file is there and to print a actual state.
It would be also very nice to have a visualization of the actual file structure.
This could be a huge list. How many files do you have?
Obvious choice would be to run a scheduled job (once a day?) and recursively walk the directory tree using Javascript and write the contents to a text file (probably as JSON) and then format that with a FreeMarker template to a readable document.
There is something in the addons site (or Google code - I can't remember which) that is about visualising Alfresco contents.
