 Hello!
 
 I am exploring the possibilities of using JDBC with Zope, as well as
 investigating whether JavaBeans could be used from Zope/Python.
 
 It seems that most Python/Java stuff use the JPython/Jython approach and,
 IIRC, Zope and Jython/JPython don't mix very well/at all.
 
 Any pointers, references, comments, etc accepted.

One project that I know of:

http://www.arakne.com/jpe.htm 

the home of Java-Python Extension (JPE), a Python extension module and a Java
package ensuring seamless interoperability between Java and Python. 

Alpha source code available on http://sourceforge.net/projects/jpe

Re: [Zope-dev] How do I create a folder with subfolders, docs etc?

2001-01-13 Thread Robert Prosenc

try this:

dtml-call expr="manage_addFolder('mainfolder')"
dtml-call expr="PARENTS[0]['mainfolder'].manage_addFolder('subfolder')"

it works with zope 2.2.4

[Zope-dev] ZPatterns implementation question: images attributes?

2001-01-13 Thread Zope mailing lists

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.

Here's the simplest approach that I can think of.

Stick all your images in a BTree Folder somewhere convenientm like 
/Images. Name all the images "image-NN" where NN is a unique number.

Make a couple of columns in your database (or whatever) for thumbnail_id 
and large_image_id. You'll store the image ids in these.

Use some SkinScript in that Specialist you mentioned that gets the 
thumbnail_id and large_image_id for a particular object, and also makes 
available the thumbnail and large_image.

WITH QUERY get_thumbnail_for_object_SQL(primary_key=self.id) COMPUTE
   thumbnail_id=thumbnail_id,
   thumbnail=Images[thumbnail_id]
OTHERWISE LET
   thumbnail_id='',
   thumbnail=Images.missing_thumbnail

Note here that I could have had just "thumbnail_id," at line 2.
Also, note that I'm assuming you have an image called missing_thumbnail 
in the Images folder.

Do likewise for large images.

This approach assumes that you're not considering images or thumbnails 
to be first-class domain objects in your system, but just attributes of 
your main objects. Thus, you won't be wanting to store other data that 
is pertinent to images. If you do want to do this, you should use a more 
complex design where Images have their own specialist.

I've been thinking about my own need for a massive
searchable image archive, and have been wondering if I could
reimplement the ZPhotoAlbum TTW product (which inherits from
ZCatalog and ObjectManager) as a Specialist with a Rack of
Photo objects (Photo is a 'normal' Python Product), but I'm
unsure of how to go about this.

I've also been considering creating an ImageArchive ZClass
that inherits from ZCatalog and BTree folder, so I have
infrastructure that is better suited to managing thousands
(potentially hundreds of thousands) of objects.

Any ideas would be welcome.

Michael Bernstein.

[Zope-dev] Massive scalability

2001-01-13 Thread Michael Bernstein

I am currently planning two separate 'Archive' type
projects/Products. In both cases, I need to make sure that
my implementation will scale to hundreds of thousands or
even millions of objects.
In one project the objects are very simple ZClasses with a
few attributes, in the other project, the objects will be
instances of the Photo Product, and considerably larger.

One implementation I'm considering is a simple Specialist
with a Rack. Does anyone know if there are any inherent
limitations on the number of objects that can be stored in a
Rack? are there any performance limitations at the scale
that I'm talking about?

The other implementation I'm considering is to create a
ZClass that inherits from ZCatalog and Btree Folder. Would
this approach run into any scalability problems with the
number and type of objects I'm talking about?

Thanks,

Michael Bernstein.

Thanks, Steve, that's great.  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.  Now, if I can just manage
to finish reading Coad...grin
