[Zope3-Users] Rendering subobjects in pages
How can I specify a template to render a sub-object within one of my content objects? For example, pretend I have a Contact object which contains a Person object. I am rendering the Contact object through a page template. class Contact: person = Person() In all the examples I see, rendering the person would be done using many tal expressions like span tal:content=context/person/name / or something similar. Is it possible to render the person object using a single tal expression, div tal:content=context/person /, having the rendering handled by a template somewhere? The reason I want to do this is because the person object will be used in many different classes and for a consistent look and feel I would like to render the object the same on all pages without having to maintain 10 different page templates. Hope this makes sense. Greg ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users

Is it possible to render the person object using a single tal expression, div tal:content=context/person /, You may use a view which adapts Person() objects: div tal:content=structure context/person/@@defaultview / You have to define e view for Person() like this: *browser/configure.zcml* [...] page for=..interfaces.IPerson name=defaultview template=mypersontemplate.pt [...] / [...] Don't forget to allow access to you Person()-class (e.g. via configure/class/allow).

I'd recommend to have a look at z3c.form and z3c.formdemo, especially subforms. z3c.formdemo features the addressbook - demo, which handles such issues.
