[Zope-dev] Using Zope-modules in Python
Hi, I want to use some Zope-modules in plain Python, no web-stuff, namely ZODB and Persistence (maybe others too ). I've installed BeOpen Python 2.0 and Zope 2.2.2. I want to import the Zope-modules, but adding the C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python-folder to sys.path just doesn't cut it. I get an import error. Running on Windows 2000. Any tips, hints or guides wanted. Thanks!

RE: [Zope-dev] Inheritable Propertysheets!???!!?!?!?!!
AFAIK (but I'm no expert), a ZClass inherits its parents' propertysheets and you can access them in the normal way. The problem is that the all the propertysheets have to have different names. Example: If your parent class and the child class both have a property sheet called "Basic", but the child class is hoping to inherit someproperty from the parent class: ParentClass.Propertysheets.Basic.someproperty is ok, but ChildClass.Propertysheets.Basic.someproperty won't work, because "someproperty" is not in ChildClass's "Basic" propertysheet. If your parent class and child class do not share propertysheets with the same name, you *can* access parent properties: ChildClass.Propertysheets.ChildSheet.anotherproperty ChildClass.Propertysheets.Basic.someproperty will both work. If I'm correct, this is all wrong and a bad thing, surely? However that was the worst-explained thing I've ever been responsible for and it's probably wrong. That particular configuration of punctuation in the subject header just struck a chord with me... seb. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Alexander Schonfeld Sent: 18 October 2000 10:25 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Zope-dev] Inheritable Propertysheets!???!!?!?!?!!

It does not. An exception in your rule will simply cause the Zope transaction to abort. Can I raise an exception in a SkinScript if a rule fails due to failure of the "WHEN eventspec"? No. If the eventspec is not matched, the rule will not fire, so you will not have any opportunity to raise an exception. What I really is after is a way to control the change of states. To enter one state (changing some attributes to some state) the object needs to be in a precondition state (having some attributes set to some values). The rule should fire when the state attributes are changed, check the precondition and if true, change the state (the attributes) and if not notify the caller (raise exception). Rules only fire at transaction or subtransaction commit, so you can only perform your checks at that time. You can perform whatever operations you wish, but only at that point. If you need to force rules to be checked, you must ask Zope to do a subtransaction commit, and then you will be able to catch errors like this: try: get_transaction().commit(1) #subtransaction commit except MyException: # do whatever else: # we're okay, go ahead Note, however, that if you find yourself doing this kind of thing a lot, it's a good sign that your class is missing validation that belongs in the class. If you need the validation to be parameterized or customizable, you can always determine certain class attributes using attribute providers, and thus avoid forcing the existence of complex triggers. In general, triggers are intended to be used as add-ons for data manipulation or to extend a class which otherwise would be difficult to extend. They're not for performing the normal logic of a class. ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Zopes existing 'find' mechanism lets you apply an operation to all the objects that it matches - use that to patch your existing objects to the new schema. I do not know how to implement 'modificationTime' attribute (or better: how to change it whenever someone edits or uploads the document). Well, for a moment I considered hacking ExportImport.py, but it's not obvious. That's why I'm asking whether somebody perhaps already has solved the problem. There is the option of stripping all the various data.fs and combining them via mounting, but this is far from elegant, if it works at all. bobobase_modification_time returns the timestamp of the transaction containing the most recent copy of the object. timestamping is fundamental to ZODB. For this alone to work you will need to keep the objects in separate data.fs files forever.

Re: [Zope] MySQL and Zope struggles
Thanks Monty, I did try the temporary table route - problem is that Zope keeps the connection open so the temporary table stays there. Of course you can explicitly drop the temporary table after you've used it. However if the update fails for any reason the temporary table will still exist so next time in the SQL method fails because its trying to create a temporary table that is already there. I know this shouldn't happen etc but I don't like code that has that kind of potential problem in it - it isn't 'fail-safe'. I decided better to use a permanent table. The SQL method locks it, deletes everything in it then writes the data it needs to store. That way its fail safe and I would expect more efficient than creating and dropping tables. However I hadn't appreciate the REPLACE command. That's a real hidden gem. I'm off to see if I can use it - thanks. Richard At 11:37 17/10/00, you wrote: You can do it with temporary tables. Like this- create temporary table foo ( note_id int, notes varchar ); insert into foo select Note.note_id, Note.notes from Note, Artist where Note.note_id=Artist.note_id and Artist.artist_id=23; update foo set notes="asdlfna"; replace into Note select note_id, notes from foo; This does assume that the note_id is unique. You may also need to explicitly drop foo, because it goes away when you disconnect, but of course Zope holds connections open. !!! However -- now that I think of it... you can just do: replace into Note select note_id, "New Note" from Artist where artist_id=23; Of couse, this will change all notes for an artist, so it assumes the artist_id is unique as well. (Which I would assume it is from your model.) If you need more complex things, look into temporary tables, but the MySQL extension (like replace) do allow you to do fun things. Hope this helps, Monty Richard Moon wrote: Nice idea. Trouble is the note table is used to hold notes for many different reasons, so it looks like this - --- | Artist| | Recording | | Label | etc. --- | artist_id | |recording_id| |label_id| | note_id | |note_id | |note_id | --- | || | | - | -- | Note | -- | note_id | | notes| -- It looks as if there wasn't anything I was missing - I'm just going to have to break the code up into separate SQL Methods. The example I gave was quite simple compared to some of the updates I have to deal with. Thanks anyway. At 17:40 16/10/00, you wrote: Or you could renormalize your data to have: - --- | Artist | | Note | |-|---|---| | id | | id| -| artist_id | | note_str | --- you now have a list of notes by artist_id. You typically won't have a screen that doesn't have an Artist context to be adding a note to. (or to remove all notes from). Of course this means more work to migrate :-( And I don't know all possible scenarios for which you would need the structure you gave, but it is another way around this.

Re: [Zope] UserDb - Please just WORK
ed, If I'm right it should be a fairly simple job to fix it. I use Interbase to hold my user database and out of the box I get almost exactly the same problems you do. The problem is that 'password' is a reserved word. The interbase solution is to rewrite the UserDB sql queries to be something like : select username, "PASSWORD",domains,roles from users Note the quotation marks around 'password'. Another solution involves editing UserDB.py, I can't remember the exact place, but you need to tell it to use a different name for the password field, I chose 'password_' at one time, which also fixed the problem. hth Phil [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "ed colmar" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2000 2:40 PM Subject: [Zope] UserDb - Please just WORK Since Login Manager isn't doing the trick, I've been trying User DB to authenticate to my postgresql DB.

[Zope] GUF, ZODB, and 2.2.2
Has anyone had luck getting GUF to work using ZODB to store the user info, and Zope version 2.2.2 (no hot fixes)? I had some code working fine in 2.2.1, but in 2.2.2 I am having lots of trouble getting GUF to work. The current implementation I have places a folder in the acl_users (GUF) folder and that is where I've put my own ZClass (representing each user) inside that folder. In a vain attempt to get it working I have made sure that there are no aquired rights in acl_users, and that anonymous has the Can Login, and Access contents rights. I've also changed all of the hooks I have and made them proxy as root. I've had trouble in the past with GUF but I've always gotten it working. Not so here.

Re: [Zope] Problems with PoPy 1.4 ZPoPyDA 0.7
Thanks for the help Kapil. That was the problem, but what I did instead was copied the PoPymodule.so from the system python lib folder to /zope_home/lib/python. That did the trick. Dustin Kapil Thangavelu [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: hi dustin your probably not running the same python interpreters. check your start shell script and see which python interpreter its using and compare it to (i'm kinda of assuming your're on a *nix system) which python they probably aren't the same. just edit the start script accordingly. kapil [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a working install of Zope 2.2.2. I installed the python module PoPy 1.4 and then attempted to install the ZPoPyDA 0.7 DB adapter. The ZPoPyDA README said to run a configure script but there was none. So I just moved the ZPoPyDA directory it created into the lib/python/Products directory in my zope home. Now for the strange part.

I created a file with the following line: import PoPy I ran 'python test' and no errors.

What about one sql method: select @noteid:=note_id from artist where dtml-sqltest artist_id type=int dtml-var sql_delimiter update note set notes =dtml-sqlvar notes type=string where note_id = @noteid -Original Message- From: Richard Moon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, October 16, 2000 2:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Zope] MySQL and Zope struggles I'm struggling to migrate an application from Zope/PostgreSQL to Zope MySQL (Why ? - because I've got a kind offer of free hosting if I use MySQL). MySQL offers a limited set of features and is missing, among other things, the ability to use subqueries - so for example in PostgreSQL you can say update note set notes =dtml-sqlvar notes type=string where note_id = (select note_id from artist where dtml-sqltest artist_id type=int) and in MySQL you can't. If you were working in a traditional programming environment you could overcome this by splitting the above into two parts - a select to retrieve the value of note_id from the artist table followed by an update of the note table using the returned value of note-id. For example select note-id into note-id-var from artist where artist-id = 23; update note set notes = 'asdasda' where note-id = note-id-var; The problem is that in Zope I believe you can't use a returned value within an SQL Method, so the above code would fail. The only way I can see to do the above is to have two separate SQL Methods, one for the select, returning the note-id-var and another for the update. This is very clumsy. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there was a better way.

How do I do that? Any pointers? LoginManager did not work for zope 2.2.2 here. Besides, the new Z ODBC connection form only lets me specify an ODBC dsn or a connection string.

[Zope] ZSQL Method AUTHENTICATED_USER
Hi, I'm trying to perform a simple MySQL lookup based on the AUTHENTICATED_USER. When I test the ZSQL method from the management interface, everything works fine.

[Zope] A clarity problem...
Green things, After seeing yet another problem caused by the 'shorthand' of zope (using "foo" to mean expr="foo") I was wondering just how difficult it would be to REMOVE this useful, but confusing, feature. Personally, I don't have a problem with it, any more. But it seems a sizable portion of traffic on this list is because of people who do. (True, it seems to have dropped off in recent weeks... is this because there is better doco, or have newbie numbers dropped?) Even if it were a build time option or something... just rambling...

Re: [Zope] Want to access ZClass Instance from external program
Sorry Jon, i've lead you down a slippery slope...
unlike ttw dtml-methods and the rest of zope which relies on the
security context soley, for a filesys python method to be exposed
through the web via xml-rpc it must have a doc string as well as have
proper credentials.
looking through propertysheets there is no 'proper' way to do this...
but i lead you down the path, so here is a way back out...
there are a couple of options.
the easiest is to have dtml_method for this zclass that functions as a
helper method,
like
dtml method -- external_helper
dtml-var "propertysheets.propertyMap()"
and in the client
x = root.subfolder.zclass.external_helper()
meta_info=eval(x)
print meta_info
({'id': 'vvv', 'type': 'int', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'}, {'id': 'aaa',
'type': 'lines', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'}, {'id': '', 'type':
'tokens', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'}, {'id': '122', 'type': 'date',
'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'}, {'id': 'ff', 'type': 'float', 'meta': {},
'mode': 'w'}, {'id': '', 'type': 'text', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'})
or if external_helper returned propertyItems()
[('vvv', 1), ('aaa', ['']), ('', ['ss', 'aa1113', '3', '4']),
('122', DateTime('1900/01/01')), ('ff', 455.0), ('', '')]
if you're working with DateTime values in your propertysheets this will
be trickier as you'll need to either retrieve the property you want
independently or import Zope's DateTime module. also remember to set the
security on the helper method so its not helping somebody hack your
site.
the rest of the ways are exercises in wasting time... IMO
hope that helps out
Cheers

hmmm...
try and take it a step back and query the propertysheet container for
names of propertysheets it contains. you'll need to check out the ZQR
for the syntax, i think its propertyIds().
you might also want to check that your authenticating with a user
that has the proper security roles to query this info.
if you're still having problems tell me and i'll play with it once i get
back from work.
