[Zope-dev] newbie / dtml-tree and external methods
Hi all, I'm newbie both in python and in zope (in English too!), and
here is a problem I realy can't sort out.
I would to display the tree structure of a repository disk.
Therefore I wrote a recursive class MyFolder, with the following
attributes (code is at the bottom of the message):
class MyFolder:
fname : name of the base folder
subfolders : a list of MyFolder objects, made after the subfolders
of my folder
MyFiles : a list of the files of my folder (actually a list of
object whose only attribute is the name of the file)
I call this class with the following external method:
def ZMyWalk(self,dir): #=None):
""" returns ..."""
# MyRepTest is the default value
#if not dir : dir=MyRepTest
return MyFolder(dir)
And I try to publish it with the following DTML-method:
dtml-with "ZMyWalk('saigon\\d\\divers\\wlk')"
dtml-tree branches_expr=subfolders
dtml-var FolderName
dtml-in MyFiles
dtml-var namebr
/dtml-in
/dtml-tree
/dtml-with
It displays the first level fine. But when I try to expand the tree
by
clicking on the small + sign, it acts randomly (doesn't do anything,
or expand another branch, sometimes it even does the right thing, ..).
Any guess? I'm totally lost :-( . I'm not sure I does this the right
way. The SomeFile class I 've made seem rather artificial.
I run Zope 2.1.6 with Python 1.5.2 under NT4.0 and I got the
TreeTag.py pach.
PS : here are the classes I use.
class MyFolder:
"""fait une recursion dans un repertoire"""
def __init__(self,dir):
self.path=dir
self.FolderName=os.path.basename(dir)
self.subfolders=[]
self.MyFiles=[]
for f in os.listdir(dir):
pathname='%s\\%s' % (dir, f)
if os.path.isdir(pathname):
self.subfolders.append(MyFolder(pathname))
elif os.path.isfile(pathname):
self.MyFiles.append(SomeFile(f))
else:
pass
class SomeFile:
""" ... """
def __init__(self,name):
self.name=name

Re: [Zope-dev] Repeating a piece of HTML code
dtml-in expr="_.range(0, movie_rating)"
img SRC="star.gif" height=15 width=15
/dtml-in
Replace movie_rating with the variable that represents the movie rating.
What about dtml-var "'*' * movie_rating" ?
Fine, except that he wants the img tag repeated the appropriate
number of times. Try putting the tag into the dtml-var statement
and you get something along the lines of (untested):
dtml-var "('img src=%sstart.gif%s height=15 width=15' %
(_.chr(34), _.chr(34))) * movie_rating"
at which point the dtml-in starts to look more appealing.
Of course if you rename star.gif as star_gif you could try:
dtml-var "start_gif.tag() * movie_rating"
which has a certain neatness.

Re: [Zope-dev] The future of Zope with XML
Hello, Thanks for getting this document going. It's good to see where XML is going in Zope. I do have a question, though. For me, the main value in XML has been in its usefulness as a flexible interchange format. Right now, I can store data as objects (either straight Python or ZClasses) in Zope and transform those into XML if I need to share it with the outside world (eg RSS). Similarly, though I haven't done this, I believe I can take XML from the outside world, parse it and store it in objects in the database. Are there advantages to storing the data in Zope as XML vs. storing my data as objects?

[Zope-dev] Re: ZPatterns complexity?
At 01:40 PM 6/2/00 +0800, Mike wrote: As I'm reading ZPatterns source code more and more I'm finding there are good things just hidden in unclean or bad defined interfaces. Just a suggestion: define interfaces as abstract classes first, then implement them (as AbstractRack, DefaultRack and GenericRack for example). I might back interfaces out later. But while the whole thing is still a prototype it doesn't make a lot of sense to keep two going. Originally, Rack itself was a base class, but the way things are shaping up it will only need subclassing if you want a custom way of mapping from a mountable's "id" to the persistent data stored by the Rack. told 'mess' I meant I spent a lot of time to realize the Rack do not store RackMountables but just manages them. That was the whole point of Rack; this has been mostly addressed on the mailing list, in my talk/slides at the Python conference, and in the ZPatterns wiki. The second thing confusing me is property sheets. They come from problem domain isn't it? I guess attribute providers are sufficient to do all the work. What that sheets needed for? Two things. 1) WebDAV support requires the ability to add arbitrary property sheets containing arbitrary data. 2) Propertysheets (especially when used with XML namespace URL's) give a way of standardizing an interface to common properties, without polluting an object's "main" namespace. This way, one can take an object that wasn't designed for a certain purpose, and attach a propertysheet that serves as an adapter to give it a different interface to its data. Consider the scenario of a scheduling application that creates calendars, or manages resource contention. But you would like to use it with say, a "room" object that was not written as part of the scheduling application. If the scheduling application can just add a scheduling propertysheet to the room object, or you can configure the room objects' datamanager or rack to add a propertysheet that makes it usable with the scheduling application, then you get to benefit from two unrelated frameworks (room management and scheduling). This is a core intent of ZPatterns: making it easy to blend frameworks that cover different behavioral aspects and problem domains. Because real world objects have a funny way of being part of more than one "problem domain" from a software development point of view. :) And one more thing I would to say. I agree the RackMountable should not be acquisition-aware because Attribute providers have full responsibility on its (acquired) attributes. But I do not like default Specialist.__bobo_traverse__ behavior. It is trying to make __of__ on thing which is not an Acquisition.Implicit by definition! Good point. __of__, however, is not limited only to acquisition. In any case, I have moved the __of__ call to the Specialist.getItem() method in 0.4.0. In 0.4.0 DataSkins (the replacement for RackMountables) include an __of__ method in their base class, as this is where they figure out their controlling DataManager (when retrieved from something other than a Rack). Thus, with 0.4.0 it is not necessary to include Acquisition.Implicit in a RackMountable's base classes. ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
Re: [Zope-dev] The future of Zope with XML( what does ZDOM do for us? )
Hi Kevin, What FourThought/DC are currently doing with Zope will allow for fast transformations to memory-resident structured data( ZDOM or whatever ) to exportable XML documents( which are simply strings of characters ). This introduces( to the Zope world ) cutting edge metaphors in web-application design. All data to be served to a client is some form of XML: including HTML ( a better term: structured data ). The internal structure, or representation( or "deep structure" if you are into Chomsky ), is the data/knowledge as the web site managers see it- and most likely the most accurate and flexible when dealing with the particular information-domain( this is what theyre paid for :) ). Each user has custom needs- and wants to see this information the way they( or the applications working on thier behalf ) are accustomed to. So, architectually speaking, we need a way to easily and quickly construct XML documents from some meta-type( our internal structure ). This is what ZDOM is accomplishing for us. Parsing is a expensive endeavor. It is not practical to parse character streams every time we want to get at our data. So the solution is to represent the data as something more computationally digestible. Again : this is what ZDOM is accomplishing for us.

Re: [Zope-dev] The future of Zope with XML
Kevin Dangoor wrote: Thanks for getting this document going. It's good to see where XML is going in Zope. [note that the zope-xml list may be a better list to discuss these things; I've cc-ed to there but we might want to move the thread there completely] I do have a question, though. For me, the main value in XML has been in its usefulness as a flexible interchange format. Right now, I can store data as objects (either straight Python or ZClasses) in Zope and transform those into XML if I need to share it with the outside world (eg RSS). Right, this is definitely an advantage of XML. Similarly, though I haven't done this, I believe I can take XML from the outside world, parse it and store it in objects in the database. Right -- XMLDocument does this. It parses the XML into a DOM-like tree, storing the XML nodes as objects in the database. You still get an XML view on it, but it's actually all objects. Are there advantages to storing the data in Zope as XML vs. storing my data as objects? It can be the same thing. :) You can use XML to seperate content from layout in a clean fashion, by storing document contents in an XML format, and providing a translator of this format into HTML. Pull in the other layout components with ordinary DTML and you have a web page. I've done this with the original XMLDocument version. You can write the translator using DTML, using XMLWidgets. The new XMLDocument will support DTML (and I'll work on XMLWidgets support), and also XSLT which is a standard to transform one XML document into another (and into HTML). If you already decided to use XML for whatever reason, the advantages of the ZODB come into play. Huge XML documents don't need to be loaded into memory all at once. You can also edit smaller parts of an XML document without disrupting the rest, making for faster editing. *and* you can manipulate the XML document using DOM and XSLT. Since there are many XML formats already with new ones being developed all the time, this can potentially be a very powerful use of the ZODB. So, if you are already using XML, Zope can be a source of power. If you're not using XML, you might want to consider using it to store document-style contents so you can seperate it from layout, and so that you can leverage DOM, XPath and XSLT. It may be less useful to use XML to store other kinds of data; that will vary on a case by case basis. Then there are a number of vague possible future payoffs like being able to use various XML standard to query the ZODB, provide unique paths into it, provide pointers and linking facilities, etc. Regards, Martijn ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
[Zope-dev] XML in Zope
Kevin, I agree with you, the performance will be better and more powerful. The thing missing in zope (dtml) now is that we can not store multiple instance of the same name which is allow with xml: authorabc/authorauthorcde/author. I hope the xml implementation will have this.

[Zope] Simple function nightmare
Hi Zopistas,
Hope you can help me .. (I'm hating DTML right now )
Take this dtml document with name: dontWork_dtml
dtml-return "a+'-'+b+'-'+c"
I want de document act like a function that concatenates a,b and c
but if at other document i do something like
let a="'1'"
b="'2'"
c="'3"
d=dontWork_dtml
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('a','2')"
dtml-var d
/dtml-let
guess what:
it renders
2-2-3
That is d is not a string but an expression.
The question is How the Fck. can i implement the concatenation of 3
arguments ?
Gracias por vuestra paciencia.

Re: [Zope] images in access database
I would like to be able to have gifs/jpgs stored in an MS access database and then pull the out using zope and display them in rendered documents. I am completely new to access. I have successfully installed the ODBCDA into zope, and are able to connect to an access database and pull ordinary text data out of tables. I have created a table in access with a column of type 'OLE object' and put a gif image in as data. This is the only way I know how to get an image into the table. The problem I think with this is that it is a link to the gif on the HDD, and doesn't actually have the data in the table? Anyway, when I pull the data out of the table from zope, access puts a header and footer around the gif binary data, and hence a simple dtml-var blah wont work to display the image. Has anyone else every pulled images from an access database. Will I have to write a method to strip the header and footer from the returned data before displaying the gif? Um, in general you'd have to have very strong reasons to put large objects like images in a database (especially in Access). This has a negative effect on the performance of your application as it adds to the overhead (putting another layer between your webserver and your image retrieval). I don't see what the gains would be. If you consider putting image descriptions in your database, do so and no more. Put the images on a filesystem somewhere and make your database records point to them. This is much easier and much faster. If the number of images is large you may have to do some thinking about the directory structure. hth Rik ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

[Zope] Aquisition questions
Some time back I had an exchange with Mike Pelletier regarding SQL methods and aquisition. We talked about a URL structure : mysite.com/Users/Fred/Flavor/Cherry/test Users is a SQL method which takes a single parameter (value = Fred here). Flavor is another method which takes a single parameters (value = Cherry here). test is a dhtml method which returns values pulled from the SQL methods. I set this test up and it works fine. One of the effects of aquisition is that the URLs : mysite.com/Users/Fred/Flavor/Cherry/test mysite.com/Flavor/Cherry/Users/Fred/test are functionally identical in my simple DHTML test method but they might not be, for instance if both SQLMethods provided a result column "RowID" then dtml-var RowID would contain the ID of whichever SQL method was run last. Suddenly I'm getting a Users RowID when I expected a Flavor RowID. Potentially disasterous. Is there a way to enforce URL's be traversed in a set way? Thus making : mysite.com/Users/Fred/Flavor/Cherry/test valid while mysite.com/Flavor/Cherry/Users/Fred/test becomes invalid. Also, assuming that both SQLMethods provide a "RowID", how do I specify explicitly which one I want, in OO terms : Users.RowID or Flavor.RowID All help appreciated. - Ian Sparks. ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

[Zope] Using FTP to connect to Zope server from (g)VIM
Hi all, My intellect was piqued recently by a discussion on the list about editors for Zope etc. I remember some people saynig that VIM was good, to which my response was, 'Yeah but there's no FTP built in'. Someone then responded with a few scripts to do it. Well I thought they were a bit cumbersome, so I wrote my own. ftpopen.py and ftpsave.py. If you have a VIM executable with Python support built in then these run from within VIM and allow you to open/save file from/to Zope seamlessly. (I have them on a menu in GVIM for instance) I'll put the files up on my Zope Members bit (http://www.zope.org/Members/philh) along with a few instructions. If anybody can think of any enhancements then please let me know and I'll see if I can work them in. I hope these will be useful to someone.

Re: [Zope] Aquisition questions
Shane, your idea about extending the URL and putting in an extra folder in the path will work but its a bit of a fix rather than a solution. Right now this isn't a RealLife(TM) problem for me, just part of my trying to get to grips with Zope and its potential pitfalls. Isn't there a way to cause the SQLMethods to provide "UserRowID" and "FlavorRowID" instead? That would be the most logical solution. Again, this is a good idea but it doesn't solve the fundamental problem which is that URL's are meant to be traversed in a particular way, if the "clever" user traverses them in a different way than intended you *could* end up in a mess. - Ian. - Original Message - From: "Shane Hathaway" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Ian Sparks" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 02, 2000 3:40 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] Aquisition questions Ian Sparks wrote: Is there a way to enforce URL's be traversed in a set way?

[Zope] Two issues for Z2.2: XHTML malicious tags
Zopistas, I have two issues that I think should be rectified before the 2.2 release. I am not very up to date on the goings-on in the list, but a quick search gave me little information on the following: 1. The HTML that Zope outputs is not very standards-compliant (XHTML 1.0) at the moment. Tags like img / are rendered as IMG etc. I would like to contribute to the cleanup work, but I am a relative newcomer to CVS. How can I participate? Do I just check out the relevant files, modify them and then get somebody that is authorized to review the files and put them back in the CVS? I am not a guru when it comes to Python, but I know enough to not mess up things along the way :) And just to clarify: I'm not talking about a rewrite of the Zope management console here, that will work fine until the Mozilla version comes along - I merely want to make sure that tags are lowercase and terminated, so pages produced by Zope stand a chance when passing through the W3C validator. I always write compliant code when I have the chance, but when using Zope this is impossible, as the tags that are inserted invalidate the page anyway. So, who do I bribe to have a shot at the CVS? :) 2. Malicious HTML tags - is anything being done here? Filtering of these is one of the features Zope 2.2 really shouldn't go without. Most Zope sites have user interaction in some way, and the concept of a post containing a stray /html, or even worse - script-tags, destroying a page is totally unacceptable IMHO. I'd just like to query what the status is on this, as I think it is one of the most overlooked areas that are lacking in Zope. I know Evan Simpson (malicious tags) and Christopher Petrilli (HTML quality of zope) have been talking about this earlier, any comments? I'm really looking forward to Zope 2.2, the alpha release looks good so far.

I wrote a few pages in XHTML some time ago, had no problems with Netscape 4.xx, but was later informed of a few problems by some users. Some still abundant browser versions were particularly not grokking (and thus showing the user) the processing instruction ?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"? For generally accessible pages, I'm therefore still using HTML 4.0. This is mentioned on http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/: Be aware that processing instructions are rendered on some user agents. However, also note that when the XML declaration is not included in a document, the document can only use the default character encodings UTF-8 or UTF-16. Anyway, tags like img / are considered valid HTML 4.0 by the W3C validator, so they would not cause validation "noise" for those still using HTML 4.0. -- jmce: +351 919838775 ~ http://artenumerica.com/ ~ http://artenumerica.org/ ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

from urllib import urlencode
def addRequestURL(REQUEST, url, dict = {}):
"Return an URL with REQUEST.form encoded as a query string."
newREQ = {}
# Copy REQUEST.form
