Re: [Zope-dev] Porting Zope to Python 3 Update
On 2013-03-02 00:34:04 +, Stephan Richter said: Hi everyone, as the week ends, I thought I might give a brief update on the Python 3 porting effort. According to the Unofficial Zope on Python 3 status page[1], about 110 packages are ported to Python 3.3. Hanno and I worked this week on updating the ZTK configuration files and I am happy to announce that the ZTK passes all tests on Python 3.3! So once the ZODB is ported, we can start on finalizing all releases, which would pave the way for a ZTK 2.0 release. Marius has made great efforts on finishing the port of ZODB. All the tests pass now on the py3 branch for Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.3. He has also removed all resource warnings (he started at 400+). The final task will be to integrate zodbpickle. zodbpickle needs some changes to properly enable the noload() method. Luckily this work will entail rewriting the dump/load of persistent ids to be more efficient and compatible with cPickle 2.7 pickles. (We are working hard on making Python 2 pickles load on Python 3!) On Wednesday, I was able to run a first Zope 3 (or should I say Bluebream?) app on Python 3.3. Thanks to Andrey and Albertas for porting some of the complex application packages. The sample application can be found in ``zope.paste``[2]. Note the short ZCML[3] and Paster[4] files. Thanks goes to everyone who helped breaking unnecessary and circular dependencies to make this work so well! In the process of all of the above, we have also started moving all packages that we are ported to Python 3 over to GitHub. I have also ported the core packages for Zope 2/4 and Grok already. So what's next? I am in the process of trying to port a rather large demo application[5] to Python 3. We are about 20 packages (that we control) away from that goal. Andrey is currently working on porting zope.testbrowser to Python 3 by changing its internal implementation from mechanize to WebTest (since it is too hard to deal with mechanize). Also, we will have a serious look at ZEO. I hope I got some of you interested in thinking about porting applications to Python 3. Yes! Very exciting update, thank you. And speaking of old libraries supporting Python 3, in case anyone needs PIL with their Python 3 Zope apps, I could use some help testing the soon-to-be-released Pillow 2.0 (PIL fork) with Python 3 support: git://github.com/python-imaging/Pillow.git.

[Zope-dev] zc.buildout semi-resolution
Hi, FWIW I spoke with Jim on #buildout this a.m. and he decided to revert my commit because people need it. I.e. Some folks rely on trunk/bootstrap existing for their builds. While I don't necessarily agree that's a good idea, the argument because people need it makes 1000x more sense to me than Please revert with no explanation. Or with a legal explanation I don't understand. I apologize to Jens and Tres if I was stubborn about this, but I did and still do feel strongly the commit I made was reasonable, and not reverting it until we could better understand the circumstances was reasonable too. To clear up any remaining confusion: - In the Plone community, it is quite common to make this type of change to indicate active development takes place somewhere else. We leave tags (and branches) in place in case people need them. I did not remove, or move the zc.buildout project, nor did I intend to disrupt development in any way. I simply wanted to leave a message on behalf of the work Jim and Domen were doing. - Personally, I use an extension called buildout.bootstrap to always download the latest bootstrap.py file. Removing trunk broke my builds, at which point I cut a new release of buildout.bootstrap containing the new URL: - http://pypi.python.org/pypi/buildout.bootstrap/1.4.2 I hope the discussion on GitHub and Bitbucket, and other vendor services continues.

There are plenty of people that still think Zope software is cool, and plenty of skilled developers on github that could potentially help move it forward. This discussion seems to unnecessarily combine at least two distinct issues: - what RCS software to use - where to host it It may be easier if we disentangled them. Traditionally it was easier, but now-a-days with github and bitbucket they are harder to disentangle. Speaking purely as a developer, I'm leaning to Git when it comes to the RCS software decision between Subversion and Git. But I can use both equally well. Where it is hosted, well, purely as a developer it doesn't matter to me, unless I need to give up too much personal data to get access. From the perspective as a Zope Foundation member the RCS software decision is a technical detail that doesn't matter much. I'm more concerned with the where question, though. The Zope Foundation is tasked with safeguarding the software released under the Zope Foundation umbrella, and it is tasked with enforcing the contributor agreements everyone signed. Commits can only be made by signed contributors, and contributors are specifically disallowed to take outside code they don't own and commit it to the repository. We already have the technical infrastructure in place for most of this, such as ZF-controlled logins on svn.zope.org, access only via SSH key, etc. Our current where can be fully trusted, so to speak, and the people tasked with maintaining this infrastructure are known, accountable, and part of the foundation. My third role is secretary of the Zope Foundation Board of Directors and in that role I collect and maintain contributor applications and the (private) data associated with it. I can vouch that our current means of storing this data is reasonably secure. I can't make that assertion if the data is stored somewhere out of Zope Foundation control. My last role is admin for the ZF infrastructure and servers. In that role I would be involved in executing any changes in repository hosting. If only the RCS software changes that's a chunk of work, but doable. Git service can be added to the ZF infrastructure and packages can be migrated into Git repositories, probably on a as-needed basis. Most of the current authentication and safety infrastructure could stay in place. On balance and taking all my roles into account, sticking with SVN and the current hosting is the most attractive option. Moving to Git in the current hosting environment is doable, it means work, but I feel I've done my job keeping the software, access to it, and contributor data as secure as possible. Any option that involves moving to a different host altogether not only makes me feel I haven't done my job, it may also throw up legal questions. Fair enough, all of this sounds reasonable. My only point was that it should be someone's role in the ZF to take a look around at the available options in today's software development ecosystem. If github.com is attractive to you, great. If it's not and you are happy with the status quo, also fine. But like anything else, there are pros and cons associated with either approach. E.g. Plone's move to github has been a challenge for a lot of people, and we continue to struggle with it everyday; but I know it was the right move for the software and the project so I feel good about what we are doing.

Actually, they introduced improved Subversion client support late last year: - https://github.com/blog/966-improved-subversion-client-support (they've supported import-from-svn and limited svn client support for longer) To be honest I see little point in just setting up our own git repository.

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope 4 release management
that this should be on Zope Foundation controlled hardware. I would note that hosting Git repositories without Github reduces the value proposition substantially: Git's wins in merging are much less significant than the collaboration workflow changes which github makes possible (tracking pull requests, in particular). Launchpad provides a similar mechanism, albeit one which is less sexy to use. OTOH, github's bug tracker is nothing to write home about, compared to Launchpad. Right - Plone has chosen to stick with self-hosted Trac for bug tracking. I'd imagine Lanchpad remaining Zope's bug tracker.

Hi Alex,
With the help of Jim, who produced a tarball containing the spidered content
of old.zope.org, the site has been converted to a static site. There will
inevitably be issues here and there. I'll take a look to see if I can find
the original files from the old app server.
Thanks Jens, I know I occasionally need to build old Plone sites, as far
back as 2.1 but also sometimes 2.5.x and 3.{0,1,2}.x all of which use
the old tarballs ranging from Zope 2.8 - 2.11 (I think). Building these
sites will require at least the final from each series to continue
working. Ultimately, I'd love to be able to access all the old tarballs
e.g. similar to:
- http://dist.plone.org/archive/
But I realize this may require some significant bit of effort!
Thanks again for the effort,
Alex

We can help make the Zope 2 name go away by stopping its use on official community sites like the new zope.org. That's a good point. And I didn't mean to suggest Zope2 itself was a brand, just that the Zope brand could be improved by clarifying its offerings. Anyway, I can probably live with Zope being synonymous for Zope 2 application server (like regebro says, it is the status quo.) In which case, the brand becomes synonymous with its most famous offering.

The first public version of the new site is now available under http://beta.zope.org The basic idea behind the project is: - a minimalistic www.zope.org site giving a short overview about what Zope is - including all related app servers, CMSes, frameworks etc. which links to the related project sites (micro-site approach) - no more member contents on www.zope.org - the current www.zope.org will be stripped down to the current member contents and stuff that has to be preserved. www.zope.org will be renamed to old.zope.org later Constructive criticism and feedback is welcome _now_. Looks great, well done all! Thanks for putting in the effort. My one (very minor) nit would be that we try to over-emphasize and over-clarify what Zope is (and is not), anywhere and everywhere possible. And by that, I mean: - Zope is: a brand, a term for any Zope-related technology, a general term. It no longer refers to anything specific. It is all-encompassing. - Zope 2 is the original web application server. - Bluebream is the former-Zope 3 web application server. - ZTK is a set of re-usable libraries. And so on.

[Zope-dev] GenericSetup sans (Python) package?
Hi all, I floated an idea in a blog entry recently (here: http://blog.aclark.net/2011/01/19/new-website-for-2011/#todo) and I'm wondering if it's an attainable goal, or just a pipe dream: --- I want to add GenericSetup (GS) profiles outside Python packages (i.e. in the buildout via ZCML). Currently GenericSetup expects to be passed a context which is (I think) the old-style Zope 2 product object in the ZODB. But I can’t think of a reason why GS couldn’t be made to work sans that requirement (I’m just speculating though, I haven’t looked at the code yet). --- Should I bother checking out the Products.GenericSetup source code to see if something like this is possible?

If this is so, then I'm surprised. It seems perfectly clear to me. Ah! This is tremendously helpful, thanks. Just a few questions/comments. 1. In the beginning there is Python, the language. 2. Then you get ZCA a component architecture for Python. It has nothing to do with Web whatsoever. E.g. zope.component and one or two others? 3. Then we have ZTK. A toolkit for building web frameworks. This is where you lose me. What's an example of a ZTK package? I can't think of one off the top of my head… ah ok, I just found this: - http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/releases/packages-trunk.html So ZTK is ZCA plus the bits that make it suitable for building web frameworks. And is it fair to say I can just build any web app with the ZTK? I don't need any of the frameworks that are already built, I'm free to reinvent the wheel if I choose too. 4. On top of that we have Zope 2, BlueBream and Grok. I.e. The Frameworks™ 5. There is also BFG, which doesn't include/build on the ZTK (as the others do). Right, it's loosely coupled with the ZCA, but you can throw that out too, if you like? It's pretty clear to me. Notice the almost complete lack of naming confusion, and the plethora of marketable names and TLA's. The paper pushers like these kinds of graphs (although I think we need something prettier, I might try do do something this weekend, but I'm no designer...) And when it comes to separating the frameworks it obviously becomes more complex. So we need to explain this, what the different framworks are good at in a clear way. I see it like this, but I could be wrong: * Zope 2 is the granddaddy of the frameworks. It's not really built on top of ZTK, but includes it. You basically only use Zope 2 if you are using some sort of software that builds on it, like Plone, Silva, or something custom. To build on my earlier car analogy: Zope 2 is an old pickup truck. You can get it to do anything. You can drop it from the top of a building and it will run. When it breaks you whack it with a hammer until it's not broken anymore. But it's diesel engine kinda stinks. * BlueBream used to be called Zope 3 and is a component based enterprise kick-ass do everything framework. Everything is configurable and it doesn't just include batteries, but a whole power plant. Which admittedly can be tricky to run. BlueBream is a train. Fast, big and pulls heavy loads, and good for the environment. If that's what you need, you know it. * Grok is an easier to use (and at least in the future also smaller/lighter) framework than BlueBream, while retaining the flexibility. Instead of having to configure everything, you have sensible defaults. Less typing, and it doesn't feel like J2EE. Inspired by frameworks like Django and Turbogears, you get the nice Python framework feeling with the power of ZTK behind you. Grok is a an hybrid minibus. Easy to drive, infinitely reconfigurable just by switching the seats around. * BFG is a minimalistic web framework built on Zope ideas and experiences, but as a part of it's minimalistic nature does not include *anything* of the ZTK, it just builds on the ZCA. But you can use the ZTK, if you want to, you are just not required to do so. It's for the purist, for the guy who wants to build his own streamlined speedmonster. BFG is a frame with four wheels and an big engine. The rest is up to you.

So - if even we have problems understanding, how would things look like for complete newbies? +1 FWIW I think of the ZCA as: The abstract concepts that define modern Zope programming e.g. component, adapter, interface, view, utility, etc. which is most often compared and contrasted with old style Zope 2 programming, e.g. acquisition, traversal, etc. As such, I make a pretty big distinction between the ZCA and the rest, e.g. Zope 2, the ZTK, BlueBream, Grok, BFG, Plone et al. The former is a concept, the latter are implementations of that concept, to varying degrees. I don't know or particularly care what packages make up the particular products/frameworks/whatever. (In fact, I find the whole ZTK concept a bit confusing. If the ZTK is just a collection of packages why argue over which packages? Why not declare every damn Zope-ish package part of the ZTK? That would include Chris's BFG, which implements CA concepts. So why not? Who cares? :-) We certainly have not reached the goal of helping newcomers understand the Zope ecosystem in any other way to date, IMO.) With that in mind, I can view the ecosystem very much like: http://wiki.zope.org/bluebream/BlueBreamName. But I might draw it like this: # Zope Ecosystem # == # #.--. #|ZCA (abstract concepts) | #| .-. | #| |ZTK (a bunch of Zope-ish packages that may or may not || #| | be useful to you)|| #| | - ------- || #| | | || | | | | ||| #| | |BlueBream|| Grok | | BFG | | Zope2 ||| #| | | || | | | | ||| #| | - ------- || #| | || #| | -- || #| | | repoze.zope2*| || #| | -- || #| `-` | #| | #`--` So I guess the point is, you can draw BFG with a line pointing directly to the ZCA and explicitly avoiding the ZTK, but I'm not buying it, personally ;-) Why? Because I consider BFG and whatever packages it consists of to be part of the general set of tools I may use as a Python/Zope loving web developer. And what's a good name for a set of tools that I may use to build something? Wait for it… a toolkit! Alex P.S. *Merge me back to Zope 2 Hanno, please!

E.g. $ cd testproject $ python bootstrap.py $ ./bin/buidout $ ./bin/test $ ./bin/paster serve debug.ini Also, there are a few installation issues (fixed by running `mkdir -p` by hand): http://pastie.org/765137 http://pastie.org/765140 And runtime issues (I think?): http://pastie.org/765143 Otherwise, it works as expected :-) Alex Regards, Baiju M ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ) --- Alex Clark · http://aclark.net Practical Plone 3 · http://tinyurl.com/practical-plone ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
