The BLOB support in Plone__ is amazing for a lot of reasons.
__ https://pypi.org/project/plone.app.blob
However Plone will raise errors when you visit a file content that use BLOB support without also having the BLOB file.
For developers this can be a little bit boring.
It's quite common to copy a production Data.fs for developing using production data, but you don't always want to copy all blobs.
This product monkey-patches parts of Plone, so that visiting objects that store content in the blob storage without having the BLOB available will not lead to errors. Instead a file only containing the string "File created by experimental.gracefulblobmissing." is created in the place where the blob-file should be.
This product has been tested on:
For Plone 4 / Archetypes compatibility stay below version 2.0. For Plone 3 compatiblity stay on version 0.3.0 or lower.
This is designed only for development/staging environment. Do not use in production if you are not 100% sure of what you are doing!
Developed with the support of S. Anna Hospital, Ferrara; S. Anna Hospital supports the PloneGov initiative.
