[Zope] Unit Testing DTML and ZPT
Is there any standard way of unit testing the two page templating methods in Zope 2?

[Zope-dev] A First Look at Zope3
I checked out Zope3 from CVS yesterday and had a go at it for the first time. Granted that it is a work in progress, I did have a few comments from a user's (rather than a developer's) perspective. The API exposed to DTML and ZPT seems very sparse (compared to Zope2) at this stage. Is this the case or am I missing something? As far as I can tell there is as yet no way to even get the name of an object for doing things like the old dtml-var title_or_id. (I have figured out how to add to the API for any particular class in the source code.) About the new look to adding objects in a folder -- I see the point of going to a list of contents with a text input to assign a name (so you can see what names are already in use), but I see one problems. The text input appears at the top of the list and the button to commit the change is at the bottom of the list. This will become more inconvenient as a container's list of contents grows. Perhaps the buttons should always be near the text input.

I will take this opportunity to note that simply pressing Enter (or Return, depending on your keyboard!) will submit the form as well. Yep. I had noticed that, and it is helpful. There is a zope3-dev list available that specifically deals with Zope 3; sending your comments and observations there will reach more of the active Zope 3 developers. Thanks. I'll move it over there.

[Zope-dev] bug in RESPONSE.appendHeader
First off, the on-line documentation description of this method is 'Append
a value to a cookie'.
Second, it breaks if you are in fact adding a second value to a header
that already exists.
Either:
dtml-call RESPONSE.setHeader('x-i-made-this','1013')
dtml-call RESPONSE.appendHeader('x-i-made-this','1121')
or:
dtml-call RESPONSE.appendHeader('x-i-made-this','1013')
dtml-call RESPONSE.appendHeader('x-i-made-this','1121')
causes an error because of what looks like a typo.
/lib/python/ZPublisher/HTTPResponse.py(line 391)
reads: h=self.header[name]
but should be: h=self.headers[name]

[Zope-dev] Zope options order sensitive
I'm just beginning my study of the zope source. Going through z2.py I
noticed that order matters in specifying command line options.
For instance: ./start -a 127.0.0.1 -P 8000
sets HTTP_PORT to: [('127.0.0.1', '8080')]
but:./start -P 8000 -a 127.0.0.1
sets HTTP_PORT to: [('', '8080')]
I'm not far enough along yet to know if this makes a difference in the
end. Does it?

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope options order sensitive
The example was fictional; the ips and ports have been changed to protect
the guilty. I'm more interested in just understanding how the code works.
It just struck me that given the way the server_info function works in
z2.py that you could get a situation where you meant to have zope
listening on only one address (specified with an -a option), but if
options for particular ports are specified for a server, it will listen to
that port for all addresses. An -a will have no effect on what is set by
-m, -w, -W, -f, or -P if -a appears on the command line after them.
./start -f 21 -a special.zope.ip
will set Zope listening only on the ip address special.zope.ip except it
will be listening at _all_ addresses on the machine for ftp requests on
port 21, which might not be the result the user intended. It is not the
same as:
./start -f special.zope.ip:21 -a special.zope.ip

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope options order sensitive
Hmmm... perhaps an undocumented feature rather than a bug? Rereading the
doc string I find the description of the -X option mentions a case of
argument order making a difference; -X cancels preceding port options but
not following ones.

Re: [Zope] newbie question -- database list/report with sort bycolumn header
Here's a fragment from a table that allows sorting by clicking the header in a dtml method named 'displayTable': table tr tha href="displayTable?sort_key=ID+desc"ID/a/th tha href="displayTable?sort_key=product"Product/a /tr dtml-in "SQLSelectQuery(sort_key=REQUEST['sort_key'])" Then feed sort_key into your SQLSelectQuery to use in an ORDER BY clause. select * from table order by dtml-var sort_key You can change the properties of an object in DTML by callling its manage_changeProperties method, for example: dtml-call expr="foo.manage_changeProperties(bar='New Value')" will changes the value of foo's bar property to 'New Value'. There are several ways of getting the effect of assigning variables in DTML, but it really isn't meant to have a direct way of declaring and assigning variables. The way you're trying to use an object's properties will, I believe, cause problems in the case of simultaneous users, because it will act as a global variable.

Re: [Zope] ZSQLMethods
Just had a few additional points: Should be dtml-if idFromTable1 == idFromTable2 of course. You'll have problems if columns have the same name in the two tables.

Re: [Zope] ZSQLMethods
Right, Phil. Mental lapse on my part. The nested dtml-ins will be very inefficient because the select on the whole of table2 in the inner one will be repeated once for each record in table1. I was thinking it would only get executed once. The first solution I offered is better especially if table2 is indexed on id, but you're still executing a repeated query on table2. dtml-in selectFromTable1 dtml-in expr="selectFromTable2(id=_['id'])" display record /dtml-in /dtml-in Chris On Mon, 4 Dec 2000, Phil Harris wrote: Depending on the number of records in the tables this could get *very* slow *very* quickly.

RE: [Zope] Special behavior or bug?
Sorry, but my understanding (which certainly may be wrong, since I don't
fully grasp the ins and outs of this yet) is that the namespace starts
with the client object to which the method is bound. The attributes (like
title) of the method never get into the namespace. This is part of the
design of DTML Methods; they can be bound to a variety of objects while
still giving full access to the client's namespace. This is why the trick
of calling a DTML Document's title from an embedded DTML header Method
works. The effect you want to achieve depends on this distinction between
DTML Methods and Documents.
Another way to say this is that the distinction between DTML Documents and
Methods allows a separation of content and logic. Put your content
(including Titles that will be significant to your visitors) in Documents
and your logic in Methods.

RE: [Zope] Special behavior or bug?
Oops! I spoke way too soon.
Try dtml-var document_title but you can't use it in a header or it will
give you the title of the header.
You can use the following code in a header:
dtml-in objectValues
dtml-if expr="_['id']==_.string.split(URL, '/')[-1]"
hrdtml-var expr="this().title"hr
/dtml-if
/dtml-in
although it is a bit indirect and fragile: it will only work if you want
the title of DTML Method 'foo' and it is in folder 'bar' and the URL you
use to get it ends '/bar/foo', but it works in a header that is somewhere
else. You can modify objectValues to expr="bar.objectValues()" but then
it won't work in a header called by methods not in 'bar'. Another
possible modification is expr="PARENTS[1].objectValues()".

[Zope] Objection to Python Script Name
I know, I know. It's a little late to speak up, but I think there is a logical objection to this name: inconsistency with "DTML Method" and "ZSQL Method".

My objection doesn't really apply if the naming of all the standard Zope object classes is up for grabs.

[Zope] DTML tags in methods(RE: [Zope] Objection to Python Script Name)
Well, half-and-half (joking/serious, that is). I was in a speculative mood about the extent of the analogies among the different kind of methods. Actually the idea makes a little more sense to me on second thought than it did at first blush. Being able to build a Python Script on the fly might have its advantages. Is eval() allowed in restricted scripts? If not, DTML tags in restricted scripts might make sense.

[Zope] Apology
Sorry, My intention was not to annoy Chris Withers or create a headache for him. Really, I'm pretty neutral about any name for any software item. I was just thinking out loud about consistent naming practices in an OO environment. It helps to talk about related things if they have related names. That's the main point I wanted to make. Besides, as a Canadian citizen I'm not bound by any rulings of the Florida Supreme Court :-) Now let's get back to Zoping around. Chris On Thu, 23 Nov 2000, Chris Withers wrote: To Hamish, the other Chris, and anyone else who's going to jump in on this. To be quite blunt, this has now been _decided_ as I understand it. So it's pointless to keep arguing and suggesting new and different names.

Re: [Zope] Zope with Microsoft Access
Here's a fix. Change the line:
dtml-call UpdateHours(REQUEST)
to:
dtml-call "UpdateHours(myval=_['myval'], mykey=_['mykey'],
sequence_item=_['sequence-item'])"
and change the name of the parameter in your ZSQL method from
sequence-item to sequence_item and change the dtml-var tag in the method
to dtml-var sequence_item.
Cheers,
Chris

What does dtml-var "0/0" actually do? Looks like all it would do is
divide by zero which *has* to be some kind of error. The problem, I think,
lies mainly in the arguments being passed to UpdateHours. I have done a
whole slew of tests to show that my if statement works perfectly (the
_.string.find thing seems to return false if it finds the specified sub
string which is odd, but works) and I've actually outputted the correct SQL
in the DTML (ie displayed it within the page) and I've copied and pasted
that SQL directly into a ZSQL Method and ran it on my database and that
works fine. However it seems to do absolutly nothing when I actually
attempt to run everything together and call UpdateHours from the DTML
document. I've played a little with namespace as well, but as I said, I'm
new to all this so there may be an error there.
Thanks for everyone's insight so far, it's really helpful, and please keep
those suggestions coming! : )

You may not be entering UpdateHours.
Try dtml-var "0/0" just before the call to UpdateHours.
Or some other obvious way to know if your entering it.
Here's how I coded the same kind of thing.
Although I'm reading the Zope book right now to see how I should have done
it.
The book is good and I might just learn a better solution than 0/0 :)

[Zope] ZopeBook - URL to SQL
The Zope book discusses calling a ZSQL Method via a URL, saying that a request for a URL like: http://localhost:8080/zsql_method/parameter/value "will return a result object", but what I get is the index_html document at the root, although I do get a rendered record with: http://localhost:8080/zsql_method/parameter/value/dtml_method Am I supposed to be getting something like I do with: dtml-var expr="zsql_method(parameter=value)" and why am I not getting it?

There's a bit of odd behavior, at least in the Windows binary release.
Going to any /manage URL brings up a blank page in the workspace
("manage_main") frame. The workspace only appears when you click on
something in the navigator ("manage_menu") frame.
