What does your zope-with-zeo.conf file look like?


The schema file that is being used by ZopeOptions is Zope/Startup/zopeschema.xml.  
This only has a skeleton zodb_db section.  It looks like the meat & potatoes 
are in ZODB/component.xml, but I don't see how that is actually pulled in.


There will be an import statement in zopeschema.xml

yes. the main part of the function is:

This works in a pyhton script but not in an external one


At this point I'd recommend my SainBrains product:

I like the demos, and as a single additional comment I would add that for
json-rpc I myself too made some (although more crude looking) simple
demos, that do not have a live server but that are installable: so that
you can start playing with it on your own server and modify any client or
server scripts, if you install the demo + jsonserver2 into Zope as two
individual products.

Re: [Zope] Re: Re: ZAjax anyone?

Ah even better!  Thanks guys.

I was going to reply just to mention I have a "not as cool" way of using Zope with Ajax at my site now too.

www.zajax.net

Seems every rock I turn over, I find 3 others worth
investigating.  Lots of cool stuff going on out there.  I put
up my own demo, but it's not nearly the prefered way of doing things by
most people.  I myself, prefer DTML over ZPT, so my demo is based
on that.  I also am using one of the larger client frameworks
available, Dojo Toolkit.  The js file is around 130k if I
remember.  The smaller ones are great and do the job, but I wanted
something larger and more widely used like Dojo to build off of.

I know eventually I'll look at the JSON stuff too.  Sound interesting.

[Zope] Zope Debugger 0.8.1 Released!

[Chris Withers]

This release adds support for both Zope 2.7 and Zope 2.8.

Zope Debugger is an enhanced version of pdb for use with Zope.

It can be used simply by inserting the following lines in any python
code you'd like to debug, including Script (Python)'s and FSPythonScripts:

from Products.zdb import set_trace
set_trace()

It requires no changes to Zope, CMF or Plone or any funky interaction
with any specific kind of editing software. All you really need to do is
insert the snippet above and make sure your Zope instance is running in
foreground mode.

For more information, please see:
http://www.simplistix.co.uk/software/zope/zdb

Chris

[Zope] How to create a file and send it by e-mail ?

[Nicolas Georgakopoulos]

Hello all, I'm developing using ZPT and I need to create a file (CSV 
format) but I'm having some problems:


* 1. *I only know how to create files with python but I get an
*Error Type: NameError*
*Error Value: global name 'file' is not defined.

* I think ZOPE doe's not allow python to create files for security 
reasons. Can I change this security policy or it will make my 
application unsafe? Is there another way to create a file using ZOPE API 
calls ?


* 2.*When I create my file how can I send it as an attachment by mail ? 
(I already have setup my mail host object and I can send mail's 
successfully.)


thanks for your time..

Yes I will build my csv as string but how can I save it as a file ?


Why do you think you need to?

Is the csv data dynamically generated?

If you need to store it, create a Zope File Object in the python script 
that processes submission from your ZPT.

Thanks, I'm looking to it rigth now.


You'll want to build your own MIMEBase object and attach it to the 
result of rendering your Mail Template if you build your csv in a string.


If you end up with a Zope File object or a ZPublisher FileUpload object, 
then you can just do:


msg = context.my_mail_template.as_message(
 # insert your params here
 )

msg.add_file(your_file)

There's plenty of examples in the readme.txt file, or in the tests folder...

You dont need a real (filesystem-) file if all you want is sending it
over the net. Usually you just build a string - for example in python
scripts via print/return printed or as a list which you join.

This is a bit more difficult, there are examples to send mails
with attachments per DTML, but if you want to avoid you either
open the python email package for python scripts or use
ChrisWs product (but I did not have the time to test it - so
try it :-)

That is exactly what I need! Thanks!

I'll clean up the code and paste it here this afternoon so a working

Hi, Greg

Cool!  I like the way you do the how-to.  Do you plan similar how-tos 
for other JS libraries/techniques?  Would you accept contributions? I 
find myself looking at mochikit (http://mochikit.com) occasionally.  In 
its ajax-tables demo, it uses a tal(esque) syntax for dom manipulation 
in client javascript, which could be interesting for fans of page templates.


For the future, dare I ask, maybe some zope3 stuff?

I think the zope community really needs zope-oriented how-tos and 
evaluations of the various AJAX libraries.  zajax.net has the right name 
to be a prime focus of such activities, should you be willing to do that.


Thanks!

CMF's CatalogTool grep an 'unrestrictedSearchResults' method which
does exactly that -- it can only be called from trusted code, but an
ExternalMethod certainly qualifies.

[Zope] How to show the DTML Method's results within Plone?

[Thomas Apostolou]

Hello again...

i have a DTML Method like you can see bellow that
produces a table after quring some table (using python
GetHeader and GetData custom modules)
But the result is a table with the query results in
another page.
I would like to show the table with the query results
within Plone's enviroment.
How can i do this?

Thank you very much!!!

RE: [Zope] reading zope.config file for ClientStorage

[Mika, David P (Research)]

OK, the opts object really did have everything loaded.  On careful inspection 
the opts.configroot has an attribute "databases" with a list of 
Zope.Startup.datatypes.ZopeDatabase instances.  I can do what I originally set 
out to do which was to open a ZEO.ClientStorage configured from the 
zope-with-zeo.conf file (the ZEO.ClientStorage is now wrapped in a ZEOClient 
object):

from Zope.Startup import options, handlers
opts = options.ZopeOptions()
opts.configfile='c:\Zope-Instance-Test\etc\zope-with-zeo.conf'
opts.load_schema()
opts.load_configfile()
for db in opts.configroot.databases:
 if is instance(db.config.storage, ZODB.config.ZEOClient):
  db.config.storage.open()

>What does your zope-with-zeo.conf file look like?

My zope-with-zeo.conf file is pretty standard except for a designation to use a 
zeoclient.  I've also included a username and password as my zeo server is 
using digest authentication:

 
   mount-point /
   
 server localhost:8090
 storage 1
 name zeostorage
 var $INSTANCE/var
 username metalfor
 password my_zeo_cleartext_password
   
 


Thanks much!

[Zope] help with MailTemplates 1.0.0

[Nicolas Georgakopoulos]

I installed the MailTemplates product to Zope and try to run the example 
from the readme file:

--
Simple Example
 This example sends a simple templated mail to a specific
 address.
 Add the following to a Mail Template called my_mt:

 http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/tal";
 xmlns:metal="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/metal";
 >Dear ,

  would like to thank you for
 your interest in:
 

 
  cheers,
 The Web Team
 

 Now add a Script (Python) in the same folder containing the
 following:

 container.my_mt(
 mfrom='[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
 mto='[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
 message='This is a test!'
 )

 return 'Mail Sent!'
--

 I cant make it work, when I try to test the python script I get a 
page like this :


Site Error

 An error was encountered while publishing this resource.
 
 
 

 Error Type: KeyError
 Error Value: u'option' 
 


can anyone give me a clue ?

Suggest something better...

I find it convenient, especially for generating html mail, which 
customer have a habit of liking ;-)


On the development front, the fewer languages anyone needs to know to do 
development, the better. TAL/TALES works just as well here...

Re: [Zope] How to create a file and send it by e-mail ?

[Chris Withers]

(yet again, please CC zope@zope.org in replies..)

Nicolas Georgakopoulos wrote:
I think I need it... 


I don't ;-)

I have made a web page (ZPT) that a user answer's 
to a questionnaire , most of the answers are provided by check boxes and 
radio buttons.
When the user submit the answers a mail is send with the answers by text 
in a string format like coma separated values.


You have a python script to do this, right?

The problem is that my client request to get the answer by mail with a 
file as an attachment so he can analyze the data with a statistical 
program SPSS.

Can this be done with Zope File Object ? (I don't think it can... )


You don't need a file object. Build the thing you want to send as a 
string called data, and have a string variable called filename 
containing the name you want to use for the attachment.


Then you need create a MIMEBase object for it:

# some imports
from email.MIMEBase import MIMEBase
from email import Encoders

# now create the attachment
msg = MIMEBase(maintype, subtype)
msg.set_payload(data)
Encoders.encode_base64(msg)
msg.add_header('Content-Disposition', 'attachment',
   filename=filename)

# now render the MailTemplate
wrapper = context.my_mail_template.as_message(
# insert params here
)
# finally, attach the file and send
wrapper.attach(msg)
wrapper.send()

You may also be interested in something I will likely add for the 1.1.0 
release:

Please explain exactly what you did, including how you create the 
MailHost, the Mail Template and the Python Script, in detail...


I just tried to reproduce this on a fresh Zope 2.8.1 instance and 
couldn't...


Using the first example, the mail rendered and sent just fine.

I'm still far from convinced the thing you think is a MailHost object is 
actually a MailHost object, did you perhaps delete or rename your 
MailHost object?

Re: [Zope] Re: Re: ZAjax anyone?

[Greg Fischer]

Jim,

I am more than happy to take contributions from others.  Using
other libs or maybe even just some Zope techniques in general is
great.  Right now, I just loaded that stuff up over the last few
days, so it's quite limited.  But, if you have anything you would
like to share, please zip it up and email it over to me.  Just put
together all the html for the body, I'll post it for ya, with credit to
you of course.

I am sure that if I get a bunch of other how-tos to post, I will
probably have to grow things a bit, but it will evolve over time. 
All of this stuff is a learning process for me, so I wanted to put up
that site to share my experiences in hopes that others could benefit.

Zope 3, I would love to put stuff up for that, but I havent even
touched Zope 3 yet.  I am more than happy to put of info on that
as well.  

Thanks!

Hi, GregCool!  I like the way you do the how-to.  Do you plan similar how-tosfor other JS libraries/techniques?  Would you accept contributions? Ifind myself looking at mochikit (
http://mochikit.com) occasionally.  Inits ajax-tables demo, it uses a tal(esque) syntax for dom manipulationin client _javascript_, which could be interesting for fans of page templates.For the future, dare I ask, maybe some zope3 stuff?
I think the zope community really needs zope-oriented how-tos andevaluations of the various AJAX libraries.  zajax.net has the right nameto be a prime focus of such activities, should you be willing to do that.
Thanks!-Jim Washington-- Greg Fischer1st Byte Solutionshttp://www.1stbyte.com

You can continue searching and trying for free alternative or just

Maybe calculate your time you waste have wasted to so far for searching and

Re: [Zope] Zope security and packing the database

[Cameron Beattie]

I have created a script based on zope_pack from the Zope book which 
allows a username and password to be specified when it is called. I wish 
to create a user specifically for this purpose that only has the ability 
to pack the ZODB.


What permission is ZODB packing protected by?


I don't know. That's part of the problem. I can't see any permissions that 
allow or disallow this.


granted the backup role all available permissions. But the user can't 
login to http://mydomain.com/Control_Panel/Database/main/manage_workspace


I don't know what zope_pack looks like, can you show us?

vi zope_pack
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys, urllib
host = sys.argv[1]
days = sys.argv[2]
user = sys.argv[3]
pwd  = sys.argv[4]

class MyUrlOpener(urllib.FancyURLopener):
   def prompt_user_passwd(self, host, realm):
   return (user,pwd)
   def __init__(self, *args):
   self.version = "Zope Packer"
   urllib.FancyURLopener.__init__(self, *args)

def main():
   urllib._urlopener = MyUrlOpener()
   url = "%s/Control_Panel/Database/manage_pack?days:float=%s" % \
   (host, days)
   try:
   f = urllib.urlopen(url).read()
   except IOError:
   print "Cannot open URL %s, aborting" % url
   print "Successfully packed ZODB on host %s" % host
if __name__ == '__main__':
   main()


What error message do you get?


If I use a user that has the Owner role it works correctly.

If I use the backup user then urllib can't get the url due to no 
authentication so errors as follows:

 File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib.py", line 180, in open
   return getattr(self, name)(url)
 File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib.py", line 305, in open_http
   return self.http_error(url, fp, errcode, errmsg, headers)
 File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib.py", line 318, in http_error
   result = method(url, fp, errcode, errmsg, headers)
 File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib.py", line 615, in http_error_401
   return getattr(self,name)(url, realm)
 File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib.py", line 628, in retry_http_basic_auth
   return self.open(newurl)


Any tracebacks?


Nothing appears in the log.


PS: I wouldn't do zodb packing by whacking a url. There's a script that 
scripts with ZOpe now that opens up a ZEO connection and does the pack 
that way, that's what I'd do...


I don't use ZEO - can I just do the scripted packing bit without all the 
associated ZEO setup?


Regards

Cameron
