 +1 on that. It's 'The Simplest Thing That Could Possibly Work' (TM) and
 only requires changes to the template as all the extra data (host and
 port) is present in the request.

But we come back to the point that you may be logged into one of (say) 3
app servers (ZEO clients) all serving the same domain, no?

Yes, maybe then this could be added to the information somehow?

Re: [Zope-dev] manage frame change

2002-03-19 Thread Adrian Hungate

If you want to make a quick change to the ZMI top or left pane, look at my
latest PatchKit - It turns them into ZMI objects so you can customize the
ZMI.

(I am sure there are as many changes people want to make to the ZMI as there
are users of Zope...)

 anyone object to changing the text at in the top ZMI frame to Logged in
 as user on machine?  Or is there a better place to put that info?
 I find it useful when I've got several windows open to different servers.

 What does machine mean? The host running the ZEO server? The host
 running the ZEO client? What about those of us who run multiple ZEO
clients
 on the same machine (multi-cpu, test instances, whatever)...

I think it should show the site name, ie, www.torped.se:1006, or
intranet.torped.se:8080, and so on.
That would make me know where I was editing all the tim (except when I have
SiteRoots. I loathe the littl buggers. Grrr). :-)

It is a great idea, seb.

How about making machine configurable per zope / zeo client instance 
via an environment variable. So, I can read something meaningful to me, 
and I won't have to remember exactly which servers I have running on 
which ports.

My €0.05. Manager has manage_zmi_prefs form. I'd like to be able to set 
machine name there. Ability to override the machine name and env.var 
with settings from that screen would be great. If policy for storage of 
those preferences are Cookies, let it be but I'd prefer to store them 
somewhere in ZODB (i have to turn off top frame each time I log-in from 
other workstation and host changes or gets extra DNS name :)

Re: [Zope-dev] manage frame change

2002-03-18 Thread Lennart Regebro

The machine should, in my opinion, be the domain you are logged in on. I.e,
if you are authenticated for domain www.foobar.com:1001, thats what it
should say, according to an internal survey here at Torped (that means me
and Johan). :-)

It would be nice to have it configurable, but I'm not sure it's enough to
configure it per instance. You may want to configure it per virtual domain
too.

 I find it useful when I've got several windows open to different servers.

Would the title bar be a better place (title/title) ?
Then you don't even have to dig the body of the window up :-)

In fact, how about machine - user, that way you should even be able to get
the context from whatever taskbar you have, without even having to resort to
finding the window...

In that vein, how about having the main frame with a title resembling
getId: tabname, that's useful if you open lots of those in
their separate windows.
