Hi guys,
I'm working on an idea: I wish to be able to setup the kid template
without edit it. Suppose I want to do a database connection using
sqlobject, to do the select I need to do (correct me if I'm wrong):
<?
from lib.database import DatabaseObject
myObjectList = DatabaseObject.select()
?>
...
Work with the template is task for the designer, I prefer to work with
servlets, I thinking on the following code:
from KidKit.KidPage import KidPage
from lib.database import DatabaseObject
class MyPage(KidPage):
def setup(self):
self.myObjectList = DatabaseObject.select()
With the construction above I can give database information to the
designer without edit his template. The KidPage doesn't exists, so
I thinking on create something like this, this servlet's goal is
to load the template on the fly, if my servlet is named MyPage it can
search for MyPage.kid...
I thinking on some issues, I should use the cache of KidKit (the one
stored in %(WebKitPath)s/Cache/KidKit/), I couldn't use the cache
stored on the same path of the template, I'll take a look with more
attention on the error in the future.
The KidPage will have a function called setup() called before the
template is rendered and a function called teardown() called after the
rendering. I think reather than just printing the template to the
servlet I must return it on a function and then write the result,
this way I can control the output and can filter through formencode in
example.
For now I have a questions, what do you guys use to do form validation
with kid? I use cheetah + formencode. I try to use formencode with kid
without sucess...
Is there any effort on something like I said before, do you agree with
me: separate the template from the more elaborated code?
Thanks in advance,
