Hi,
I'm working on incorporating some additions to the SQLPASPlugin that
we're using here, which allow it to work with plain PAS, and also
provide generic setup support etc...
There's one item that is preventing this from working "as planned": the
way the PropertyProvider plugin returns a property sheet rather than
just a dict of data (plain PAS explicitly requires the plugin to return
a dict).
I think this can be avoided if the sheet type is determined in the
userfactory plugin (PlonePAS/plugins/ufactory.py) rather than directly
in the plugin. The following (untested) is the simplest change I can
see that would preserve BBB whilst allowing the original PAS interface
to be obeyed:
def addPropertysheet(self, id, data):
""" -> add a prop sheet, given data which is either
a property sheet or a raw mapping.
"""
X plugin = getattr( self.acl_users, id )
if IPropertySheet.providedBy(data):
sheet = data
X elif IMutablePropertiesManager.providedBy(plugin):
X isGroup = getattr(user, 'isGroup', lambda: None)()
X schema = None
X if hasattr(plugin, '_getSchema'):
X schema = plugin._getSchema(isGroup)
X if not schema:
X schema = None
X sheet = MutablePropertySheet(id, schema, **data)
else:
sheet = UserPropertySheet(id, **data)
if self._propertysheets.get(id) is not None:
raise KeyError, 'Duplicate property sheet: %s' % id
self._propertysheets[id] = sheet
Does this seem like a reasonable change? I'd like to get some comments
from anyone who knows more about PAS plugins than me, before I devote
additional time to it.
Thanks,
Miles
