[Zope] How can I import this module in python script ?????
Hi,
I am playing around trying to make something happen on a workflow state
change. Beacause I cannot import the module I need in the python script I
am getting an error:
global name 'getMemberById' is not defined
how can I import this module or better still code this so I am not
importing anything at all (i imagine the restrictions on importing modules
was done for a reason).
#import the module we need
from Products.CMFCore.utils import getToolByName
# Get the content object we're publishing
review_state.object
# How can I import this module?
#from Products.CMFDefault.MembershipTool import MembershipTool
mt = getToolByName(context, 'portal_membership')
listed_ids = mt.getRoster()
contentObject = review_state
# Start with an empty list, ready to be filled with the addressed
# of people we're dispatching to
mailList=[]
mailhost = context.MailHost
mailhost = getattr(context, 'MailHost', None)
# Iterate through all the site's users
# context.portal_membership.listMembers():
for id in listed_ids:
member = getMemberById(id)
email = member.getProperty('email')
# add them to the list of people we're emailing
mailList.append(email)
mMsg = 'Crop notification sent'
mTo = email
# and send it
mailhost.send(mMsg, mTo, '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'New Crops available')
# The change in indentation signals the end of the loop, so we've
# now sent all the emails. Let's now send a confirmation that we've done it.
# We'll be building the email as a string again, but we have to convert our
# list data elements into a string before we can append the information
recipients = string.join(mailList)
mMsg = 'These people were sent e-mails'
#mMsg += contentObject.absolute_url() +
mMsg += recipients
mailhost.send(mMsg, '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
'Lizard Leaves Announcement email confirmation')
thx

[Zope] Migrating to Zope 2.10.1 breaks unrestrictedTraverse
I'm trying to get an object by walking a path. Previously, I used baseobject.unrestrictedTraverse(path). Upon migrating to 2.10.1, though, doing the same thing often produces the following error: File "/usr/local/zenoss/Products/ZenModel/Organizer.py", line 148, in getOrganizer return self.getDmdRoot(self.dmdRootName).unrestrictedTraverse(path) File "usr/local/zenoss/lib/python/OFS/Traversable.py", line 259, in unrestrictedTraverse AttributeError: REQUEST The problem appears to be that the Traversable mixin assumes that self.REQUEST will be available; since we're calling it from outside Zope, though, there is no request. Any thoughts? Why was this changed, and is there an extant way to get the same result without just writing a simple method that walks the path?

Re: [Zope] Zeo question
Ola, You can easily do this by changing the 'display' routines on each zope instance I feel so stupid asking but what do you mean by this...i have googled but cannot find anything about 'zope display routines' ... Do you mean this: In the zope instances I can create a folder custom and place my customizations in there.. -- so I create logo_manaus.jpg for Manaus and this goes in the folder custom on the zope instance in Manaus and then i create logo_belem.jpg for Belem in the folder custom on the zope instance in Belem...and we live happily ever after ;) -- I think my problem is that i do not really understand what is stored in the ZODB...is it just content or is it content and configuration []'s -- Ian Lawrence http://ianlawrence.info Centre for Bioinformatics INSTITUTO NACIONAL DE PESQUISAS DA AMAZÔNIA-INPA RUA ANDRÉ ARAÚJO N º .2936 , BAIRRO DO ALEIXO MANAUS-AMAZONAS-BRAZIL Research Program in Biodiversity http://ppbio.inpa.gov.br PHONE: 055-92-3643-3358 CEP. 69011 -970 | Please do not send me documents in a closed | format.(*.doc,*.xls,*.ppt) | Use the open alternatives.

Re: [Zope] Zeo question
Ola, thx maciej and Jonathan...your answers have helped a lot Each zope instance can access multiple ZODB's (as Maciej mentions later), which means that the zope instance can access both a shared zodb and a local zodb which is specific to the zope instance. auaua...i didn't know that ;)...this is really cool. Now the inevitable question - 'Is there any documentation about how to set this up ?' Maybe I just define another in my zope.conf and mount it into a folder like maciej said and just customize this folder. What i need to do is just create a custom skin on each zope instance to show that it is Manaus,Belem or wherever serving the information but have the same global content shown in each instance. From what you have said it seems this should be possible with a bit of tweaking Zope is very flexible! You just need to build a configuration which meets your use case! welcome to OSS, eh !

Hi, Hope you can help 1. I am having trouble connecting a zope client to a zeo database.The server and client are in different goegraphical locations and behind different proxies and firewalls.

[Zope] BUG: subtransaction not handled correctly in "manage_addFile"
Dear all, Does anyone fancy earning a bit of pocket money? I've got a Zope problem that I can't solve because my Python isn't good enough and my understanding of the ZODB is pretty much still zero. We've got a simple Zope application that allows users to upload files without going near the Zope management screens. For more information on this and what the problem is, see: http://www.egroups.com/message/zope/48084 The basic thrust is that when a large file is uploaded and subtransactions are needed, something goes wrong. Dieter Maurer sent a reply helpful reply (thanks Dieter) that's archived at: http://www.egroups.com/message/zope/48116 In it, he said: > On the other hand, the bug is triggered by > something. I would expect, it is an > exception in "ZODB.Transaction:261", > AttributeError "commit_sub". > You can verify this, if you put an > "import traceback; traceback.print_exc()" > below line 270. > Problably some non-subtransaction object > managed to enter in "subjars". Sure enough, Dieter was right. I get: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/local/zope/lib/python/ZODB/Transaction.py", line 261, in commit j.commit_sub(self) AttributeError: commit_sub Dieter told me to file a bug report (and he's told a couple of other people the same thing since) but I haven't yet because I'm having trouble replicating the problem. I can't replicate it by just copying the two salient methods to a fresh Zope installation of Zope 2.2.5. Other messages (e.g. < http://www.egroups.com/message/zope/48492 >) made me suspect that it was a problem with a Product, but installing the Products I'm using (SiteAccess, ZOracleDA, ZPyGreSQLDA and smbUserFolder) to this fresh installation didn't replicate the bug. I only see it if I copy over the Data.fs from the original installation. Other people seem to have come across the same problem in different contexts. Have a look at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/zope/messagesearch?query=commit_sub We need to get this fixed ASAP so my boss has told me to send this message to the list and offer 400 pounds (sterling) to anyone who can fix this bug.

[Zope] Unexplained Slowdown
When I upgraded to Zope 2.2.5 access to my Zope over the web slowed down dramatically and I haven't been able to figure out why. I am interested in ideas I can try to track it down the problem or at least quantify/benchmark the slowness. Some background. 1) I am a computer teacher teaching Zope to my second year web development students who have already learned HTML and been introduced to JavaScript. 2) The server is a my test machine that my students and I use for learning. 3) The "production" server still running 2.2.4 continues to preform normally. 4) The machine is Celeron 500 mhz 64 meg ram running Windows 2000 Server 5) I run Medusa server that comes with Zope to server the web pages. 6) There is no gateway set up on this machine so that it is only visible from within the school. Notes. 1) It is much faster if I access via localhost on the server. What I have tried. 1) Installing 2.2.4 on another port. It ran just as slow. 2) Today I removed the 2.2.4 installation and installed 2.3beta, again it seems just as slow. What Next? The next thing I was thinking was to serve the webpages from IIS using PCGI. I am interested in other ideas. I.

Of course. I'm actually parsing Apache logs on my own site, as this covers both the Zope and non-Zope portions of my page. The basic analysis isn't Zope-specific, just more Zope-accessible. For instance, hits are returned as a list of page/count pairs, and then you can format then as you wish with DTML. Any of these things that I've done could be done by other log analyzers, and I expect they have been. They could probably be done better: the real advantage of what I'm doing (in my own experience) is that I have a fair amount of control to do whatever I want, not just what was included in the software.

[Zope] Logfile analyzer
I've been making some log analysis code on my site, and have realized that a lot of other analyzers aren't that great -- or, at least, that it's nice to have the control that editting the actual code can give. (for instance, I ignore all requests that come from my ISP, since I don't need to know what my surfing habits are; I ignore all pages that end in "manage.*"; etc.) Anyway, I've been thinking of polishing and expanding what I've written some, so it's suitable for public use (or at least use by people who know Zope/Python fairly well). But this requires work that I probably wouldn't do for myself -- so I'm writing to see if there are enough people who have interest in this to make it worth it.

Re: [Zope] Traversable DTML methods
<<
The one reason that may still exist for not making DTML Methods traversable
as you're suggesting would be if you want to call a DTML Method within the
acquisition context of another... something that some people may want to do
(I never have though). If a DTML Method chops off everything that follows in
the URL, then that remaining part of the URL can't be used for acquiring
other methods.
<<
I don't see DTML Methods as "chopping off" the URL so much as "consuming"
parts of it. SQL Methods have this behaviour now :
www.mysite.com/flavor/cherry/showme
Where "flavor" is a SQL Method which takes a single parameter "cherry" and
"showme" is a DTML Document which makes some use of the flavor SQL Method.
In this instance "flavor" consumes the next part of the url because it is
looking for a parameter and when it is finished hands on control to the
next, unconsumed part of the URL "showme".
Notice though that I have to have the "showme" DTML Method to actually
display the results. If "flavor" was a parmeterized DTML Method my URL could
become :
www.mysite.com/flavor/cherry
which makes more sense to me. In this case the "flavor" DTML Method would
consume the "cherry" parameter, perhaps call some SQL Method to get the data
for the "cherry" display and then display itself.
If the parameters could have defaults then I could have URL's like :
www.mysite.com/members/ian/
www.mysite.com/members/ian/home
www.mysite.com/members/ian/preferences
www.mysite.com/members/ian/todo
Where "members" is a DTML method which takes parameters ,
(default : "home") and decides what to display based on the parameters
passed.
This allows my "users" to become virtual (by which I mean DB-based). I can
do the last 3 URL's now with SQL Methods ("home", "preferences" and "todo"
become DTML documents or methods which are aquired) but I can't do the first
URL because SQLMethods don't do any rendering for display.
Well, that got rambling but it lays my argument out in full I think.
- Ian.

Re: [Zope] Traversable DTML methods
Kevin Said : >> Hmm... what does it mean, exactly, to "traverse a DTML method"?

Re: [Zope] How do you call the string?
Martin, I'm no Zope expert but if you have a property with an ID of "prop1" of type string with a value "first_value" set on a DTML Document then inside the document you can say : and "first_value" will be substituted into your code at this point, replacing the "" declaration. I am not sure why you want to get the title? You only need to know the ID to get the value. Are you trying to find a way of looping through all the properties defined for a document?

[Zope] How to catch URL in DTMLDocuments/Methods
Hi,
As a Zope newbie I'm still not entirely sure about how to capture the URL as
Zope traverses the tree.
For instance, my site called with :
mysite.com/members/ian/preferences/10
"members" is a DTMLMethod or Document. What I want to do is trap the URL
once it has entered "members".
So inside "members" I want to do things like :
1. Get the next part of the url ("ian") and run an SQLMethod using this as a
parameter (calling SQLMethods I understand).
2. Get the part after that, "preferences" and pull in my "preferences" DTML
page from /templates/preferences, possibly passing it the next part of the
url "10" as a parameter to that DTML page.
The conceptual problem I have is that DTMLMethods/Documents don't have a
parameters tag like SQLMethods do, so I don't see how I can "trap" parts of
the URL like SQLMethods do and use them internally in my Method/Document.
I know I keep asking this type of question, please bear with me 'till I get
it!
- Ian Sparks.

You could set up an object called "Users" that would be found only if the user goes through "Flavor" first. Your example will have to be modified to get it to work. should work: mysite.com/Users/Fred/FlavorFolder/Flavor/Cherry/test should not work: mysite.com/FlavorFolder/Flavor/Cherry/Users/Fred/test FlavorFolder is a folder at the same level as Users.

[Zope] Aquisition questions
Some time back I had an exchange with Mike Pelletier regarding SQL methods and aquisition. We talked about a URL structure : mysite.com/Users/Fred/Flavor/Cherry/test Users is a SQL method which takes a single parameter (value = Fred here). Flavor is another method which takes a single parameters (value = Cherry here). test is a dhtml method which returns values pulled from the SQL methods. I set this test up and it works fine. One of the effects of aquisition is that the URLs : mysite.com/Users/Fred/Flavor/Cherry/test mysite.com/Flavor/Cherry/Users/Fred/test are functionally identical in my simple DHTML test method but they might not be, for instance if both SQLMethods provided a result column "RowID" then would contain the ID of whichever SQL method was run last. Suddenly I'm getting a Users RowID when I expected a Flavor RowID. Potentially disasterous. Is there a way to enforce URL's be traversed in a set way? Thus making : mysite.com/Users/Fred/Flavor/Cherry/test valid while mysite.com/Flavor/Cherry/Users/Fred/test becomes invalid. Also, assuming that both SQLMethods provide a "RowID", how do I specify explicitly which one I want, in OO terms : Users.RowID or Flavor.RowID All help appreciated. - Ian Sparks. ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
Re: [Zope] Interbase / Cacheing - A thought
Hannu, Does PostgresSQL allow you to have dynamic events? By this I mean can you do things like : PostEvent "Update_tblUsers_Record_" + new.RecordID; I believe that in Interbase the events are compiled into the trigger, not interpreted at Runtime so you can't have an Interbase event alert you to a change in a particular record, only that a change has occurred on a table. Coming from a RDBMS background myself I'd prefer to see RDBMS integration be tighter to Zope - properties etc being stored in the database where appropriate. For reasons of speed you don't want to have to go to the DB each time you want a property but having a data-aware object which knows when to update itself would solve this problem nicely. It should also help with load-balancing and failover where you could have a cluster of Zope instances all working on the same monster DB, all being kept in sync. via the event alerter mechanism.

[Zope] Interbase / Cacheing - A thought
Had a thought that I wanted to share. Interbase has a feature known as "event alerts". In a trigger you can post "events" which are just fixed data strings e.g. "DataAdded" or "Insert_tblUsers". A client database connection can register to listen to these events. I don't know if any Zopeish Interbase access method supports this (ODBC doesn't to my knowledge) but it would be incredibly useful for synching cached database objects. Zope could hold a representation of the table data in cached objects for quick access. Each object could have one or more "event" methods which related to a database event. When the database adaptor received an event message from Interbase it could inform all objects with a matching event method (these methods would refresh their cached data with current values from the database). In this way database and Zope cache could be synced *without* having to poll the database at an interval. In all, a very efficient mechanism.
