[Zope-dev] Where are all the good docs?
I've recently persuaded my company and our clients that Zope is THE way to go for Portal software. Now I find myself having to hack away at sources more and more to meed their needs. With that in mind, how can I find out something like what functions can be called from the context object? I've noticed context.absolute_url() and a few others but I find myself sorely lacking the ability to look up member methods for Zope objects. Where do I go for info? -- Regards, Bryan Simmons -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- What is this sleep of which you speak? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

That product sure does open up a wealth of information but it really does me no good with understanding what context is and what functions apply to it On Fri, 16 Jul 2004 17:45:28 -0400, Paul Winkler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Fri, Jul 16, 2004 at 05:44:46PM -0400, Paul Winkler wrote: On Fri, Jul 16, 2004 at 02:53:20PM -0400, Bryan Simmons wrote: I've recently persuaded my company and our clients that Zope is THE way to go for Portal software.

That's where docfinder comes in... you visit bar in the ZMI and see what it says. you should also read the zope book... currently in progress version here: http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ) -- Regards, Bryan Simmons -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- What is this sleep of which you speak? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
[Zope-dev] PCNG hook into Calendar
I was wondering if anyone would have suggestions on the best way to have another Product create an event, an ATEvent that is, in a portal. I'm looking for an interface to the ATEvent object. I plan to modify PCNG 1.2.4 such that issues can be created as tasks that have a time-span. I'm going to use it as a scheduler for tasking my company's web hosting department. Basically, when a new issue is created, I will have it create an ATEvent if the user specifies that this issue should be a time-based task. I may end up creating a whole new Product to have this work as I would also like to have a click on an ATEvent take the browser to the PCNG issue tied to that event. Any ideas? Some times this editing of Products can be a mess and I'm just asking for any advice on how to keep it simple. -- Regards, Bryan Simmons -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live. -- Rick Osborne -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
