In this section of the wiki, we'll add links to custom patches, plugins, themes, forks, and other resources developed by community users and publicly available for developers to explore and work with.

Tip

Have you developed custom code for your AtoM installation? Let us know! And... why not consider contributing your code to the public project? That way, we maintain the code for you through future releases, and the entire community benefits from your work! Here are some links to get you started:

CENDARI Shibboleth authentication plugin

CENDARI (Collaborative European Digital Archive Infrastructure) is a research collaboration aimed at integrating digital archives and resources for research on medieval and modern European history. They have chosen AtoM for use as their collaborative Archival Directory (site here, more information here), and have done some custom development, including a plugin to integrate with Shibboleth, an "open-source project that provides Single Sign-On capabilities and allows sites to make informed authorization decisions for individual access of protected online resources in a privacy-preserving manner."

The plugin was developed against AtoM 2.1, and has not yet been tested with other releases. The development was done by Carsten Thiel, primarily between November and December of 2014.
