[Zope-dev] 2.3.0 bug in fmt=?
Nevermind. As usual, as soon as you post you figure it out. The value of the var was a string and not a float... Sorry for wasting bandwidth. Although, come to think of it, should it throw an error rather than silently eating the value? --RDM ___ 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 )
[Zope-dev] 2.3.0 bug in fmt=?
dtml-var somevar fmt=dollars-and-cents produces a blank, no matter what the value of somevar. I could swear this works in other versions of zope, but it seems like an awfully fundamental bug to have slipped through the 2.3.0 release process. Can anyone tell me what stupid thing I'm doing wrong? --RDM ___ 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 )
[Zope-dev] zope 2.3.0 upgrade bug: inituser trashes existing user
I have not thoroughly tested this, but I have done it twice to make sure I could reproduce the error I saw in the specific circumstances I saw it. I suspect the bug is generic, but don't have the time to prove it right now. My setup: INSTANCE_HOME style setup. Zpatterns installed in 2.3.0 tree EMarket installed in the instance products folder. RedHat Linux 5.2 (I think, how do you tell on a linux system?) python from RPMs, zope 2.3.0 from source install (wo_pcgi). I upgraded an existing site by simply changing my zopectl (see my product) PYTHONHOME setting to the 2.3.0 tree, shutting down the site (which had been running 2.2.4), and restarting. Now, at this point I did not understand how inituser was supposed to work, so I had copied my old access file to be my inituser file, thinking the name had changed but the semantics were similar. Imagine my surprise when the inituser file dissapeared when I started zope grin. The problem is that the inituser *replaced* the single existing user in the acl_users folder. This must be a bug. --RDM PS: I also was amazed to find that having ZDebug (without Chris' patch) in my Products folder left my site *wide* open: anonymous could view and edit methods. This might be worth a warning on the web site, even though it is unlikely anyone would run production with ZDebug installed. ___ 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 )
[Zope-dev] ZPatterns implementation question: images attributes?
I have a specialist (actually, EMarket has a specialist grin) that manages objects that from a design point of view I think should have a couple of Images as attributes (thumbnail and fullsized images of the product). The question is, how do I implement this using ZPatterns? Currently all of the other object data is pulled from an SQL database. I don't mind storing the Images in the ZODB, but I'm having a hard time finguring out how I would implement that. Pointers or alternate design suggestions welcome. --RDM ___ 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 )

I can even simplify it since there's a one to one correspondence between products and images, so I can just use the product Id as the Image Id. If that correspondence ever breaks, it'll be a sign that its time to promote the images to their own specialist... I think I'm slowly getting the hang of this.

I like the add dropdown being at the top, I'm indifferent to the additional item information, though the sorting looks like it might be useful, and those are about the only differences I notice. See, I use w3m and I always go to 'manage_main', so I never see the other frames or any of the "pretty" graphics Now, if the management interface were *customizable*, all these (mild) complaints would go away grin.

[Zope-dev] zopectl 0.0.1
I recently released 'zopectl', a python script that acts as a configurable
front end to the z2.py script, implementing the defacto standard unix process
control commands: zopectl start, zopectl stop, zopectl restart. I wrote
it to simplify management of a server that runs several zope instances,
so it can also be used to start/stop/restart a collection of zope sites
or any subset of that collection ('zopectl start mysite'). Configuration
is based on a master file, with the ability to override any parameter
for specific sites.
http://www.zope.org/Members/rdmurray/zopectl
While I orginally wrote it for the production machine, I'm finding
it even more useful on my development machine where I have any
number of Data.fs files for various projects. I now use an
INSTANCE_HOME setup where I have a directory stucture like this:
/usr/local/zope
Zope222
Zope224
Zope230a1
sites
devsite1
devsite2
devsite3
In /usr/local/zope I have a zopectl.conf file that specifies my "standard"
setup for my development sites. In the individual devsite directories
I have zopectl.conf files that override these global settings as
necessary. Zopectl lets me set different versions of zope to run,
and even different versions of python. Setting up an override configuration
file has proven to be *much* easier than editing individual site
start and stop scripts. And by putting zopectl in my path, I no longer
have to cd into the site directory in order to do a start and stop.
Anyway, I'm hoping others will find it useful, too. The version number
(and the comments in the readme about bugs) are due to the fact that
it hasn't seen much testing yet. It's been solid for me so far, and
I've now exercised quite a few more parameters than my README comments
would make it appear.

decide to emulate what they do. However, I do not understand what getlexicon
is doing and I would like to learn what q should looks like before it is
passed to evaluate. I do not understand that vocabulary seems to store like
integer, is getlexicon a step to look up the string to convert them to
integer? I am getting lost.
I don't fully understand Lexicon myself, but I've at least spent some
time groveling around in the code. I understand there's been a relatively
recent checkin of a new version of the text index stuff that at least
provides clearer variable names and additional comments; if you aren't
working from cvs version you might want to browse the files on the
cvs web interface.
So, here's what I understand:
The lexicon takes words and associates them with integers. It is the
integers that are stored in the text index. So in the final stages
of the search process, the parsed words are looked up in the lexicon
to get the integer, and the integer is then passed to the index
to get back the result set (list of documents containing the word).
The result set is itself a list of integers. I think it is in fact
pairs (or some more complex data structure); at the least the index
stores the document number and the word offset (I think it's a word
offset) of the word into the document.
As for what q looks like...well, I haven't grovelled through the
parse, quote, parens, and parse2 code much, so I'm guess a bit here:
I *think* that before it goes into evaluate q is a list of sequences
or words, where the sequences are a list of sequences or
wordsrecursive. The sub-sequences would be the parenthesized
expressions from the original string. In the original string, any
occurences of the pair of words 'and not' were replaced by 'andnot'.
Any quoted strings (double quotes only, I believe) were replaced
by sequences of words separated by the 'near' operator ('...').
parse2 makes sure that every other item in q is an operator, by
sticking the default operator, 'or', in between any pairs that
aren't separated by an operator.
If I'm right, an expression like:
This is and not a (good "test of") searching
should end up feeding to evaluate a 'q' like this:
('this', 'or', 'is', 'andnot', 'a', 'or', ('good', 'or', ('test', '...'
'of')), 'or', 'searching')
I'm least sure of those parens around test...of.
Maybe this will at least give you a clue to enable you to figure
out what the code *really* does grin.

It is possible you are having an issue with the way the splitter
is used on the search term input side. Several of us have found
bugs in that area. We've fixed the ones we've found, but there
may be more wry grin.
Run zope in debug mode ("the debugger is your friend" howto), and
watch what UnTextIndex does with the search terms. (Hint: instead
of trying to set breakpoints per the howto, just uncomment the
appropriate calls to the debugger in the UnTextIndex or Lexicon
source file...)
