[Zope] JSON for Ajax applications
I don't know how many has seen this, but it's pretty cool. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. http://www.crockford.com/JSON/index.html It is used for Ajax applications to transfer data instead of xml. It uses repr() versions of standard python objects like dicts, lists, string, numbers etc. to transfer data. It is really simple to generate for Python programmers, so it is very simple to use in Zope too. -- hilsen/regards Max M, Denmark http://www.mxm.dk/ IT's Mad Science ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Yes. This is the class I am using:
class TestProd(SimpleItem):
A TestProd object
meta_type = TestProd
manage_options = ( {label: Edit, action: manage_main},
{label: View, action: index_html})

def __init__(self, id, title):
self.id = id
self.title = title
def testit(self, REQUEST=None):
return self.test(self, self.REQUEST, something=blah)
And the test template:

I have added it to the rootfolder in ZMI with the ID testing.
What happens when you in that TAL do something like:

Re: [Zope] Passing args to PageTemplateFile instances
RESULT:
---
Welcome to testprod
{'args': (TestProd at /test/testprod used for /test/testprod,
HTTPRequest, URL=http://localhost:8080/test/testprod/test_testprod),
'something': 'blah'}
0
/test/testprod
http://www.peterbe.com/test/TestProd.tgz
So it works just fine in Zope 2.8.0
I suspect that the code you paste was idented wrong because the def
testit() function looked like it was part of the __init__ function.

I liked the look of CPSSkins, but looked into it a bit and thought, this does too much , its too clever. That means the rendering is more complex which will hit performance. Also a sophisticated product is possibly more likely to break doing a migration such as to Plone 2.1. the support for plone2.1 will be available soon, when I get the time to do a release. The actual changes to support plone2.1 are trivial, basically small API changes and a new template for the preference panel. They are summarized here: http://svn.nuxeo.org/trac/pub/changeset/24294 So If plone2.1 was to cause CPSSkins to break it would also break the hundreds of thousands of sites that have customized the plone skins. Its a more complicated product to maintain perhaps. Thats not entirely scientific either because something well-written by good programmers who understand Plone well may be more migration-proof than a simpler but sloppier-written Product. But I take an attitude that while Zope/Plone is great, a certain amount is still bleeding edge and brittle, so don't try to be too clever.

On the other hand some people need to push the limits in order that advanced features get their bugs found and fixed. I think that I usually spend about 1 hour a month on the Plone version of CPSSkins, keeping up with the changes in Plone. CPSSkins works on CMF, CPS, plone so 95% of the code is completely independent of Plone. The only part that needs to be updated are the skins located in http://svn.nuxeo.org/trac/pub/browser/CPSSkins/trunk/skins/cpsskins_plone2/ Plone performance tuning is something I need to learn more about when I get time. If a Product can perform well with tuning thats great but it can be an issue if its default behaviour is a performance hit and it therefore imposes a performance tuning requirement. (Not implying that this is true of CPSSkins). the biggest performance hit in plone comes from the fact that the product relies too much on zope page templates, which 1) where not designed to be cached by fragments 2) they use methods located in user space (python scripts, etc) and 3) the page template architecture needs to get all the parts rendered before the entire page can be displayed, so if one little portlet on the page takes 2 seconds to be render, it is the entire page will take 2 seconds to render. It is very difficult to isolate the slowest parts of the rendering chains. I guess what you're saying is you do not believe there are performance issues with CPSSkins, and you have evidence of a least one situation to back this up. So, I don't mean to cast aspersions, and I would still consider looking into using CPSSkins in the future. :-) Regards Nick by design, the performance issues are tackled completely differently, since there are possibilities to cache page fragments. But again the Plone version of CPSSkins is one year behind the CPS version because the portlet caching architecture is missing in Plone. I don't know about PlonePortlets, but last time I tried they worked in CPSSkins. best /JM ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

I have cmf1.4.7 installed on zope 2.7.4. I also have plone installed. All seems to work well. I'm trying to use the file system directory view product to build a simple graphics library. My thinking was to store all images on the unix file system, then let some store some meta data on each image. Trouble is, I'm not finding any 'beginning' documentation on using file system directory view. seach zope.org yeilds hundreds of hits. I've looked through the install tree for zope and cmf and am not finding any usefull README's there either. so my first question is where is a good HOWTO on using filesystem directory view (I've got both the fdv that came with cmfcore and one that came with plone). my second question is, .. is file system directory view what I want.

I am interested in what you might recommend when you are dealing with a number of virtual sites of the smaller zodb scale since this is really the issue I am attempting to solve. I definitely like the features ZEO has to offer as far as asynchronous maintenance, etc. I have no experience with this. My experience is with huge ZODB storages -- containing everything, even large binary objects. It copes quite well. How to proceed with lots of small virtual sites heavily depends on your ressources. If I had plenty of resources, I would each give its own Zope instance -- to make then as independent from one another as possible. If my resource were very tight, I would use a single Zope instance and a single storage to spare resources as much as possible. -- Dieter ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Re: [Zope] How to create an ansynchronous method
Hi David, Just a note in passing to say that what you're really after in this case is Gary Poster's ZASync. Gary's talked to me about getting Stepper (which is basically batch processing triggered via cron using a ZEO connection) to do the work of processing ZAsync's queue, which would be cool, but I don't know if either of us has the need/time to make that happen... cheers, Chris gary's talked with me about doing the David Pratt wrote: Hi Ron. I found the following trying to follow up a bit on what you have suggested. I believe it is similar to what you are doing from your explanation. It may be out of date. I have not attempted to daemonize a process to date so it would be great if you could look at this and comment since I need something to work with. http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2001-February/030814.html As far as interacting with Zope, I have done something similar to build a site remotely from another server but setup https and sent credentials in the urls. I wonder if there is a way to inject them into Zope another way since the daemon is on the machine. I think the ClockServer injects requests into Zope. I believe it is something similar since credentials still need to be in url to execute something but requests are not exposed to the web doing this.

The long-running process writes a pid file and waits for a SIGUSR1 signal (using Python's signal module). A small External Method, called when the user submits the form, reads the pid file and sends the signal to the process. Is the long running process cronned to look for a record in the database or is this starting another server of some type. It waits for a SIGUSR1 signal from the website, otherwise it's idle. That way it can begin processing immediately but doesn't have to do any periodic checking. I do, however, have a cron job that starts it every 15 minutes in case it dies. The process knows if it's already running, so it's safe to just start it regularly. What I need is something like what you are suggesting - wakes up when there is work in the hopper and chugs along until it is done and then goes to sleep (sort of the way a printing queue works). At the same time it would be great if it was something that had a small RAM footprint or ran without consuming any more than X mbs. The part that waits for the signal is very small, but it loads the Reportlab modules and reads a bunch of data to do the work, so it can get large at times. If it were to just call an external program that dies after doing its work, you could easily keep memory usage low. The other problem I have with this is that it needs to do work in Zope itself since the final docs end up as objects. I have just found Chris Wither's product called Stepper. I am not sure it this is for this type of situation or more for cronned maintenance. I have no idea. Maybe it'll do what you want, but I don't understand what it really does just from the description. The work I needed to do was external to Zope anyway (reading data from a MySQL database, building PDFs with Reportlab, sending email), so it's actually better that I'm outside of it. When I have to run things in Zope from outside, I run curl with a URL of a Python Script that does the work. It's a hack, but I've never had a problem with it. I'm not sure how else you would work in Zope from a process outside of Zope. -- Ron ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Yes, the paste was wrong, but there was more than that, I had my editor
slightly misconfigured, which meant that the testit method was done with
tab-indention and the rest of the file with space-indention. After I
fixed that, it worked correctly and something shows up in options. I
am absolutely stumped by why an indention problem can cause such a weird
bug. I would have expected Zope/python to spew out an error telling me
that indention was fucked up. To just silently make things not work is
definitely not nice.

Hi David. I would recommend at the blob product. I have been using it with success in CMF. I would consider it a starting point for where you may want to take it. If you are looking for something already developed and ready to go, I would recommend ATManagedFile from Enfold if you plan on using Plone.

Re: [Zope] securing webdav
Hi Tino. Over HTTP is not the problem. It is more on normally https you are rewriting your requests to port 443 with apache proxy and your usual webdav server is port 1980 that is not secure. I am in the same boat as David. I haven't got my webdav running securely at this point either. The only thing I have heard about is the running m2crypto with ZServerSSL but I have read mixed reviews so have been reluctant to install it. Either way I am looking for something also for securing webdav and ftp as well. As far as sftp I know that Zope Corp has a product in CVS but I have not heard whether it works or if anyone is using it. It relies on on the deprecated Twisted 1.1.1 which is at least 2 or 3 years old. I read earlier today of a product called scponly that could help but it looks like it has had some history of vulnerability so not so sure about this solution at this point either.

Re: [Zope] How to create an ansynchronous method
Hi Chris. I downloaded ZASync and did a bit of reading and comparing between your Stepper product as well. ZASync at present relies on an older version of Twisted which is now I think into the 2 series so maybe later the products will come together this way. I think Stepper is really interesting.I think it would be a really good thing to see fire and forget with a process you create as a series of steps that can also be queued in one or more queues. I also think there is some interesting possibility for something like a Zope instance Stepper where you could trigger a generic daemon to run a thread to process asynchronous tasks (steps) without a ZEO requirement. The asynchronous jobs could be queued for long running tasks outside of zope or timed to inject the step requests into zope for the maintenance of a zope instance (in the same vein as ClockServer) but in a single product.

Gary's talked to me about getting Stepper (which is basically batch processing triggered via cron using a ZEO connection) to do the work of processing ZAsync's queue, which would be cool, but I don't know if either of us has the need/time to make that happen... ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
Re: [Zope] Multiple ZODB for virtual hosts with ZEO
Hi Dieter. I guess the bottom line is to evaluate configurations and weigh them against your resources, needs, risks, etc and then make a decision. The great thing is that Zope is flexible and as a result there are interesting options to consider. Your feedback has been helpful. Many thanks.

I am interested in what you might recommend when you are dealing with a number of virtual sites of the smaller zodb scale since this is really the issue I am attempting to solve. I definitely like the features ZEO has to offer as far as asynchronous maintenance, etc. I have no experience with this. My experience is with huge ZODB storages -- containing everything, even large binary objects. It copes quite well. How to proceed with lots of small virtual sites heavily depends on your ressources. If I had plenty of resources, I would each give its own Zope instance -- to make then as independent from one another as possible. If my resource were very tight, I would use a single Zope instance and a single storage to spare resources as much as possible. -- Dieter ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
Re: [Zope-DB] OracleStorage shared
Giorgio Pieretti wrote: In front of the servers there is a load balancer that choose at which server pass the web request (based of some internal hidden to me algoritms). The data should be in an Oracle DB. Please, don't ask me why. It's a planning tie :( Well, then you're going to suffer a slow and lingering death under a mound of OracleStorage woe. Seriously, it's turnip, hasn't been supported in YEARS... By now, Just THE FIRST server I run Zope can have read/write permission on DB, but the SECOND one can only read (an error occurr when I try to create or modify any portal object). I should not use Zeo, because using Zeo I need to assign a Master and a Client server, and if the Master fail, the client will not work :( Well, here's a plan: load balancer | +-- | | ZEO Client 1 ZEO Client 2 | | +-- | ZEO storage server with OraceStorage mounted (seriously, you're gonna suffer!) | Oracle You can then have multiple ZEO storage servers running off Oracle, with one or more clients attached to each, leaving the load balancer and Oracle as the single points of failure. For the record, your situation is crazy, and you will pay an extremely high penalty for it...
