I announced release of httpgz, http://zif.hill-street.net/httpgz on
Zope3-Users this past weekend.
It does very nice things to bandwidth. One particular page (tabular and
very repetitious) went from around 400K to 25K for the client.
MochiKit.js went from 94254 bytes to 24854 bytes. This makes web pages
seem much faster, particularly on slower connections.
I am wondering what the best mechanism for turning this on and off would
be. I suppose it is simple enough to insert and remove the
httpgz-configure.zcml file in etc/package-includes, but is there a place
for third-party hooks in zope.conf? Or would that be a bad idea?
There is a mechanism for registering third party schemas in ZConfig.
Zope2 leverages this support, declaring an abstract section type
('product-config'), which allows products to register custom section
types (they can also just add simple key value pairs). The SVN checkins
which enabled this:
$ svndiff -r 39634:39652 \
svn+ssh://svn.zope.org/repos/main/Zope/branches/2.9
Products define custom section types in a 'component.xml', which must
then be imported into the zope.conf (via '%import') before a section of
that type may be used.
Zope3 could add a similar abstract section type to its top-level schema,
for use by third-party extensions. Such a change would *not* require
settling the config-file-format debate.
