<p>This is a framework designed to build connectors with external systems,
usually called <tt class="docutils literal">Backends</tt> in the documentation.</p>
<p>Documentation: <a class="reference external" href="http://odoo-connector.com">http://odoo-connector.com</a></p>
<p>It features:</p>
<ul>
<li><p class="first">A jobs queue</p>
<blockquote>
<p>In which the connectors can push functions (synchronization tasks)
to be executed later.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p class="first">An event pattern</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The connectors can subscribe listener functions on the events,
executed when the events are fired.</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Connector base classes</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Called <tt class="docutils literal">ConnectorUnit</tt>.</p>
<p>Include base classes for the use in connectors, ready to be extended:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Synchronizer</tt>: flow of an import or export</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Mapper</tt>: transform a record according to mapping rules</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">Binder</tt>: link external IDs with local IDS</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">BackendAdapter</tt>: adapter interface for the exchanges with the backend</li>
<li>But <tt class="docutils literal">ConnectorUnit</tt> can be extended to accomplish any task</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
</li>
<li><p class="first">A multi-backend support</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Each <tt class="docutils literal">ConnectorUnit</tt> can be registered amongst a backend type (eg.
Magento) and a backend version (allow to have a different <tt class="docutils literal">Mapper</tt>
for each backend’s version for instance)</p>
</blockquote>
</li>
</ul>
<p>It is used for example used to connect <a class="reference external" href="http://odoo-magento-connector.com">Magento</a> and <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/OCA/connector-prestashop">Prestashop</a>, but
also used with Solr, CMIS, …</p>
