[Zope-dev] pdbtrack.el - track source file whenever runing pdb in an emacs buffer
I've put together an alternative, pared down approach to doing python
debugging inside emacs - pdbtrack:
http://www.zope.org/Wikis/klm/PDBTrack
Once loaded, pdbtrack watches your (comint) process interaction
buffers for the pdb stacktrace. When it sees it, and can find the
file containing the current stacktrace focus, it pops the file up in a
separate emacs buffer, centered on the current debug line. This way
you continue to interact with pdb, stepping into and out of functions,
moving up and down stack frames, anything that changes focus - and
emacs displays the right place in the source in a companion buffer.
Of course, pdbtrack works just fine with the zope interactive debugger
(reachable, for example, via:
% cd $SOFTWARE_HOME/lib/python
% python
import Zope; app = Zope.app()
Zope.debug('Zope.app().whatever', d=1)
[debug...]
)
The big difference between pdbtrack.el and pdb.el is that you don't
need to start your debugging session in a GUD (Grand Unified Debugger)
buffer. I often have to arrange a lot of state in the interpreter
before i can jump into debugging. This generally defeats switching to
a GUD session, with its separate process - while pdbtrack just jumps
in whenever i go into the python debugger, within the accumulated
context.
pdbtrack lacks a number of things that GUD does have. It doesn't
highlight the current source line other than centering it in the
source buffer, and it doesn't provide nicities like stepping and
setting breakpoints from within the source buffer.
However, pdbtrack is much much more lightweight than gud - and it
might be interesting to see about providing some of the gud features,
like debug keybindings in the source file buffers involved in the
debug session, with this more open, decentralized model.
In the meanwhile, pdbtrack goes a long way towards doing what i want -
i hope it's useful to others. I've submitted an entry for vaults of
parnassus, not sure how long it takes to show. To repeat from above,
you can find it at:

[Zope-dev] Making ZClasses AutoForm Generate

[Zope-dev] Building A MailMan Search Interface
I've come across an itch. I'm tired of having to go through the mailing archives to find what i need. The search interface at egroups, is a bit slow and cumbersome. The one at ntlpd is much nicer, but i'd like to have my own so i can point an archiver/search interface at any mailman mailing list. So i decided i'd like to make a generic mailman search interface in zope. i've got a cronable retrieval script working that grabs archives. the next step is pretty crucial and i thought i'd ask around for advice. My question than becomes one of storage and parsing. I'm looking for suggestions on how to do this in an efficient and speedy manner. I'm willing to use linux/nix specific stuff if it helps performance. options: first question that applies to most of these approaches is whether to store mails an individual items or in default format of the text archive. flat file: this gives me a couple of parsing/searching options. like using grep or the c regexp library or the camel library (from helix code's evolution) any other options for this format? downside, this introduces some minor hurdles with presentation. zodb - btree folder for parsing/indexing this basically forces me to use zcatalog, which i don't think will scale to the amount of raw text without lotsa of ram. i could be wrong (i haven't gone through the Catalog code), but this is my working understanding of it. if i store the emails as archives i could probably whip up a reasonably speedy external method that would search through them. one benefit will be the ease of the presentation logic. but this is secondary to a speedy system. rdbms (probably postgres - maybe mysql) i'd prefer postgres since i'll probably be doing some other work with it. but %like% is probably one of the most expensive operations you can use on a db and its pretty limited in syntax. if i had a spare oracle system than i'd drop it in a heartbeat and use Intertext Media jaunx for searching. But i'd hate to tie this to a very expensive closed system. mysql seems to excel at speed (perhaps because it was designed for it:) but again the limitations of sql search syntax pop up. if anyone knows of any good ways to search through text in a db i'd love to hear about em. right now, i'm leaning slightly towards a flat file storage, but i'd love to hear some suggestions.

RE: [Zope] linuxworld article
Hi I think the author is right about the interface of Zope. Take a look at what Enhydra has to offer: http://www.enhydra.org/software/ScreenShots.html What the author especially is missing in Zope is something line Enhydra DODS (Data Object Design Studio), an grafical interactive way to combine objects and relational data. And 'coming soon' an interactive app-builder... Zope Studio depends on Mozilla, but how long will that all take to complete ? Besides laking a slick interface, Zope is missing the real interactivity Enhydra can offer; Java apps on the server and on the client can communicate directly and therefore make a lot more visually possible in terms of administration, debugging, etc. A solution ? Has anyone at Digital Creations yet taken a look at Beehive's MetaPublisher ? I think that is the way to go for the short term (Studio being long term) ! Nice looking browser interface, combining data and databases, wizards, etc. Python and Zope has momentum NOW, but if we fail to deliver at least some of the features other platforms have (and the number will increase; for example with Borland Delphi comming to Linux, so will WebHUB, a webplatform for Delphi !) new users will be disappointed and go somewhere else.

[Zope] DTML Problem (from the newbie hair ripper category)
Greetings,
I have created a custom Zclass called "Category." This object is based on
the "objectManager" template. Essentially this object is a container with a
few properties attached; "navigation_name" and "description."
Essentially, the gist of this is to create a navigation menu with a
dtml-in loop that displays all of the Category('s) in a given directory.
However, I want the property "navigation_name" to show up as the hyperlink
text. Does this make sense?
So, if I simply call the dtml-in "objectValues(['Category'])" and then
print the name with dtml-var navigation_name, everything works fine!!
Here is the proverbial rub. If I want to *test* for the presence of
"navigation_name" so I can print "title_or_id" if it's not defined, Zope
simply skips the "navigation_name" property. It's like it always evaluates
to false!
Example for "left navigation" dtml method:
dtml-in "objectValues(['Category'])"
dtml-if "hasProperty('navigation_name')"
dtml-var navigation_name
dtml-else
dtml-var title_or_id
/dtml-if
/dtml-in
Okay, I think to myself "self, maybe acquisition is getting in the way," so
I try:
dtml-in "objectValues(['Category'])"
dtml-with sequence-item
dtml-if "hasProperty('navigation_name')"
dtml-var navigation_name
dtml-else
dtml-var title_or_id
/dtml-if
/dtml-with
/dtml-in
Doesn't work!
Could this have something to do with the definition of my own Zclass? Do I
have to read into the property sheet specifically? Is there a command for
that?
I took the example from the excellent "Breadcrumb Navigation Trail Howto"
and that works fine, as long as I use a supplied Zope object (like
"folder"). As soon as I use my own ZClasses, this breaks. (I'd like to get
my "navigation_name" into the breadcrumbs as well.
Thanks in advance,
-Darin Lee

Re: [Zope] ZStylesheet
Chris Thanks for that. I know and use their (much shorter) safe list: http://webreview.com/wr/pub/guides/style/safegrid.html I do use styles to get rid of font face color from throughout my pages although I try and use small and big for font sizes. Anything more sophisticated than that seems to cause all sorts of problems. (View http://neil.efc.be:8080/test/test.html in more than one browser for a couple of simple examples of oddities.) Thanks to all for the tip on broken html - syntax errors can always mislead.

[Zope] SV: [Zope] linuxworld article
Well Gijs, you've got some points right in what you're saying BUT... If you know some HTML and Stylesheets why don't you revamp the interface yourself. I have. Look for dtml files in your Zope root. When you open them you'll see that it's good old HTML. I, for example, have a small monitor and not much space for long lists of objects, so I changed that in one single line of HTML. Neither did I like the boring white background. Change: body to body bgcolor="color" I used to think that Linux was ugly and Windows was nicer. Then I realized that if I spend a couple of mins on customizing Enlightment or KDE, I can have it exaclty the way I want it. Even better than Windows!

Take a look at what Enhydra has to offer: http://www.enhydra.org/software/ScreenShots.html What the author especially is missing in Zope is something line Enhydra DODS (Data Object Design Studio), an grafical interactive way to combine objects and relational data. And 'coming soon' an interactive app-builder... Zope Studio depends on Mozilla, but how long will that all take to complete ? Besides laking a slick interface, Zope is missing the real interactivity Enhydra can offer; Java apps on the server and on the client can communicate directly and therefore make a lot more visually possible in terms of administration, debugging, etc. A solution ?

[Zope] Re: [Zope-dev] CalendarTag fix for Zope 2.2
Speaking of the calendar tag, which I'm very grateful for.
I noticed that changing the mode setting in one browser was seen in all
others.
calendar.py
line ~323:
def render(self, md):
self.mode = 'month'
Forcing the mode to month seems to work. The view will be month unless the
url contains a mode.
Also changed it to give me access to the td tags of each day.
dtml-calendar
dtml-call "setCalendar('valign','top')"
dtml-let d="date.timeTime()"
td bgcolor="da"
a href="db/view/editDayDTML?day=dtml-var d"
dtml-var "date.dd()"
/a
br
/td
/dtml-let
/dtml-calendar
The td bgcolor= will be replaced with DTML.
Plan to use color coding to represent how full a days events are.
Well this was Web/DB/Zope project #1, and it was fun.

[Zope] linuxworld article and auto-form generation
I played around with some auto-form generating ZClasses a couple months
ago. Just thought i should share since it seems to be something people
want, and i saw it used as a feature-lack against zope on linuxworld.
basically it just spits out an html page where you pick a property sheet
and then it spits up an edit form for that sheet. i use em for quick
testing of a zclass and as a template(ala view source) for more
customized forms.
i generally use it a base zclass on a project and just make my other
zclasses inherit from it. to view the forms after you've created the
methods (in your the Products folder of your ZClass) just go to
http://YourZopeSite.zope/YouObject/edit_properties
this stuff will be on my members page, soon:)
