Introducing the Hippo CMS Groovy add-on

Read Original

This article introduces the Hippo CMS Groovy add-on, a new plugin that enables administrators to execute Groovy scripts against the Hippo CMS repository from within the CMS UI. It explains the motivation behind the tool—to provide a flexible alternative to UpdaterModules and JCR runners for tasks like querying data, updating documents, and triggering workflows without requiring server access or downtime. The article details the add-on's features, security considerations for admin users, and its current status as a near-release project on GitHub.
