If this is so, then I'm surprised. It seems perfectly clear to me.

1. In the beginning there is Python, the language.

2. Then you get ZCA a component architecture for Python. It has
nothing to do with Web whatsoever.

3. Then we have ZTK. A toolkit for building web frameworks.

4. On top of that we have Zope 2, BlueBream and Grok.

5. There is also BFG, which doesn't include/build on the ZTK (as the others do).


It's pretty clear to me. Notice the almost complete lack of naming
confusion, and the plethora of marketable names and TLA's. The paper
pushers like these kinds of graphs (although I think we need something
prettier, I might try do do something this weekend, but I'm no
designer...)

And when it comes to separating the frameworks it obviously becomes
more complex. So we need to explain this, what the different framworks
are good at in a clear way. I see it like this, but I could be wrong:

* Zope 2 is the granddaddy of the frameworks. It's not really built on
top of ZTK, but includes it. You basically only use Zope 2 if you are
using some sort of software that builds on it, like Plone, Silva, or
something custom.

To build on my earlier car analogy: Zope 2 is an old pickup truck. You
can get it to do anything. You can drop it from the top of a building
and it will run. When it breaks you whack it with a hammer until it's
not broken anymore. But it's diesel engine kinda stinks.

* BlueBream used to be called Zope 3 and is a component based
enterprise kick-ass do everything framework. Everything is
configurable and it doesn't just include batteries, but a whole power
plant. Which admittedly can be tricky to run.

BlueBream is a train. Fast, big and pulls heavy loads, and good for
the environment. If that's what you need, you know it.

* Grok is an easier to use (and at least in the future also
smaller/lighter) framework than BlueBream, while retaining the
flexibility. Instead of having to configure everything, you have
sensible defaults. Less typing, and it doesn't feel like J2EE.
Inspired by frameworks like Django and Turbogears, you get the nice
Python framework feeling with the power of ZTK behind you.

Grok is a an hybrid minibus. Easy to drive, infinitely reconfigurable
just by switching the seats around.

* BFG is a minimalistic web framework built on Zope ideas and
experiences, but as a part of it's minimalistic nature does not
include *anything* of the ZTK, it just builds on the ZCA. But you can
use the ZTK, if you want to, you are just not required to do so. It's
for the purist, for the guy who wants to build his own streamlined
speedmonster.

BFG is a frame with four wheels and an big engine. The rest is up to you.

No problem that you are no designer, if the concept is clearly communicated, 
there will be people around who can prettify it.

 And when it comes to separating the frameworks it obviously becomes
 more complex. So we need to explain this, what the different framworks
 are good at in a clear way. I see it like this, but I could be wrong:

The above list (and http://wiki.zope.org/bluebream/relationship-after.png, 
which resembles the list) pretty much explains and structures things. 
Personally, I think that Plone (and maybe other applications, e.g. Silva?) 
are missing in the big picture (not necessary for explaining BlueBream, 
though).

The problem I see is where to go from this graph/list. I personally would 
expect to be able to advance from there to project home pages. This is true 
for grok/zope2/bluebream (in .zope.org), and also for BFG  (bfg.repoze.org).

What I can't find is some entry page for ZTK (at least I find 
http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit). Nice would be something 
like ztk.zope.org which could be similar to zope2.zope.org.

When it gets to ZCA, I can't find anything, except for Baiju's book and maybe 
somewhere some document about the Zope Component Architecture. If we 
introduce the word ZCA, I would recommend to put up a simple page on 
e.g. zca.zope.org, where people can learn what this is, links to a 
documentation and maybe has some download/install information and some 
tutorial.

Ah! This is tremendously helpful, thanks. Just a few questions/comments.

 1. In the beginning there is Python, the language.

 2. Then you get ZCA a component architecture for Python. It has
 nothing to do with Web whatsoever.

E.g. zope.component and one or two others?

 3. Then we have ZTK. A toolkit for building web frameworks.

This is where you lose me. What's an example of a ZTK package? I can't
think of one off the top of my head… ah ok, I just found this:

- http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/releases/packages-trunk.html

So ZTK is ZCA plus the bits that make it suitable for building
web frameworks. And is it fair to say I can just build any web
app with the ZTK? I don't need any of the frameworks that are
already built, I'm free to reinvent the wheel if I choose too.

 4. On top of that we have Zope 2, BlueBream and Grok.

I.e. The Frameworks™

 5. There is also BFG, which doesn't include/build on the ZTK (as the others 
 do).

Right, it's loosely coupled with the ZCA, but you can throw that out too, 
if you like?

 It's pretty clear to me. Notice the almost complete lack of naming
 confusion, and the plethora of marketable names and TLA's. The paper
 pushers like these kinds of graphs (although I think we need something

 BFG is a frame with four wheels and an big engine. The rest is up to you.

Right, and the apps built with those frameworks, e.g. Plone, Cyn.in, Zenoss, 
etc.
Would be very helpful to include these in a discussion about this, IMO.

BFG uses the ZCA for some implementation details, I'm not sure if that 
is the same as 'builds on the ZCA'. I don't think you can use the ZTK 
with BFG - the vast majority of ZTK packages are too tied to concepts

In the same way Zope2 doesn't really built on the ZTK. It's integrated
in some parts of it while a lot is still agnostic to it. Parts of the
ZTK like the entire security machinery don't apply. But there's
certainly some relationship that qualifies as uses between these
entities. I'd say the same is true for BFG.

Well isn't that enough? It's nothing you can download and test, it's a
collection of libraries of limited interest outside those who use Zope
webframeworks.

 When it gets to ZCA, I can't find anything, except for Baiju's book and maybe
 somewhere some document about the Zope Component Architecture.

Yeah, the component architecture maybe could use some more advertising.

 2. Then you get ZCA a component architecture for Python. It has
 nothing to do with Web whatsoever.

 E.g. zope.component and one or two others?

Yup.

 3. Then we have ZTK. A toolkit for building web frameworks.

 This is where you lose me. What's an example of a ZTK package? I can't
 think of one off the top of my head… ah ok, I just found this:

    - http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/releases/packages-trunk.html

 So ZTK is ZCA plus the bits that make it suitable for building
 web frameworks. And is it fair to say I can just build any web
 app with the ZTK? I don't need any of the frameworks that are
 already built, I'm free to reinvent the wheel if I choose too.

Sure. Or for example, use it together with Pylons, or Bobo, or for
that matter BFG.

 4. On top of that we have Zope 2, BlueBream and Grok.

 I.e. The Frameworks™

Yup.

 5. There is also BFG, which doesn't include/build on the ZTK (as the others 
 do).

 Right, it's loosely coupled with the ZCA, but you can throw that out too,
 if you like?

Chris has to answer that.

 BFG uses the ZCA for some implementation details, I'm not sure if that
 is the same as 'builds on the ZCA'. I don't think you can use the ZTK
 with BFG - the vast majority of ZTK packages are too tied to concepts
 that do not apply to BFG.

 BFG applications won't likely use the ZTK as a whole, but many of the
 deployed ones do use some ZTK packages beyond the bare ZCA parts. e.g.
 the catalog code, SMTP integration, etc.

I thought repoze forked exactly those parts (repoze.catalog and 
repoze.sendmail) to get rid of all the ZTK-assumptions?

[Zope-dev] zope.app.authentication

2010-01-22 Thread Souheil CHELFOUH
Hello guys,

I'm coding some stuff, using zope.app.authentication and this package
appears to do too many things, in my opinion.
Would it be wise to cut off some of the functionalities ? The pure PAU
components could go in a dedicated package, like
zope.pluggableauthservice
The whole handling of principals, groups and folder makes it a bit
hard to read and introduces a lot of redundancy if we wish to roll our
own things.
What do you guys think ?

 Chris has to answer that.

BFG uses some Zope software, like, say, Pylons uses software made by Ian 
Bicking.  This is about the best way to describe the relationship.

The fact that BFG is built on top of the ZCA is an implementation detail.  As a 
consumer of BFG (as a programmer of a BFG application), you aren't going to 
throw out the ZCA, because a) there'd be no reason to do so, it's an 
implementation detail that is invisible to you and b) BFG would stop working.

In the future, BFG may or may not depend on the set of Zope packages on which 
it currently depends.  It may begin to depend on more Zope packages, or fewer, 
or disuse all of them entirely.  But whatever decisions are made wrt its Zope 
dependencies, BFG will be largely backwards compatible with itself between 
releases.

I don't think so. The PAU is quite a big chunk and would really
deserve to live on its own piece of land.
zope.authentication is really about the authentication basics, not all
the pluggability and plugin that PAU brings in.
zope.app.authentication is just too confuse as it defines PAU and a
whole set of persistent authentication-relatied components and other
things that could be easily (logically) cut off.

[Zope-dev] quitting the ZTK steering group

2010-01-22 Thread Martijn Faassen
Hi there,

This is to announce my withdrawal from the Zope Toolkit steering
group.

I withdraw from the Zope Toolkit steering group for two reasons:

* The steering group is not working as a group. Most steering group
   members haven't been doing much steering. This left me by myself to
   try to give direction. I cannot blame the others for committing
   their time differently, but this isn't the balance of work I signed
   up for.

* Trying to steer the ZTK took a large amount of my energy. The
   discussions are quite draining and the benefit to me has not
   been worth the frustration.

In the past year we've made large changes to the dependency structure
of packages, cleaning it up. We've also improved compat testing and
dependency analysis infrastructure a lot.

That's the technical part. The community consequences are also
important. We've been able to redefine the focus of various projects
under the Zope umbrella. Separating the concern of the ZTK from Zope 3
made another refocusing project like BlueBream possible, and made more
clear the relation Grok and Zope 2 have with the libraries in the ZTK.

I think there is a lot more that can be done, but I don't want to feel 
responsible for it.

Here is my analysis of problems with the ZTK:

* Unclear leadership situation. I tried to resolve this by founding
   the ZTK project and steering group in the first place. Besides the
   time investment problems mentioned before, this (my?) leadership is
   also not fully accepted, or its judgment is not fully trusted.

* Even though endless discussions take place, communication is
   frequently poor and frustrating at the same time. Bigger changes
   take too much energy to discuss. People give up even trying to
   cooperate and do it alone as it's a way to get things done. This
   creates a vicious cycle.

* The commitment of parties to work together on the ZTK is
   fragile. Witness Zope 2 withdrawing from the ZTK quickly
   after some disagreements (with me).

My commitment to leading the ZTK as a community project has now 
disappeared as well. I am primarily interested in the development of 
Grok. I came to the ZTK to tackle important issues for Grok, and now am 
going to focus my attention on Grok again. This means that I may 
contribute to the vicious cycle I mentioned above, but so be it.

What this means for the ZTK or the steering group I do not know. The ZTK 
matters to me as a foundation to Grok. In a wider sense, I believe that 
a broader base of people using the ZTK is good for the Zope community 
and Grok as well. I also believe a person or group who offers leadership 
and has a final say is healthy for the project -- just random interested 
people voting -1 or +1 or -1000 or +1000 on the mailing list is a recipe 
for stagnation. We will have to see what the steering group, or anyone 
else, will come up with.

I've tried to ignore zope-dev as much as possible recently, because I 
don't want to be dragged back into sometimes frustrating discussions. If 
you want to reach me you can email me or talk on grok-dev.

Good luck, everybody.

Martijn

[Zope] Very odd reverse proxy problem . [nginx - win32 zope]

2010-01-22 Thread kiorky
The things:
* I have a nginx handmade compiled under the hood
* I have an official zope+plone installation on native windows
* I have a django based application inside the cygwin
* I have a tomcat+cas installation on native windows

All of that seem to be configured correctly.

What i want to do is to make my nginx a reverse proxy of the 3 others 
applications.

Because of some other application needs (wsgi served with flup/socket) i need
that nginx to live inside the cygwin installation. That's not my concern
afterall :).

The nginx works well for static contents and as the the django  and tomcat
installations reverse proxy.

Here come problems with zope+plone.

If i hit my http://url/plone (nginx mapped point to the plone install as http
reverse proxy), the first request (get /) pass, but the other stall as 206
partial content and are very long to be satisfied. The browser seems to be
blocked on some read() call.

I tried a bunch of things nginx side (use epoll, use select, tweak proxy
parameters, stop proxy buffering, set timeouts, set retrys and so on) but i have
not found the right configuration if it is there.

But where it is very strange is that if i make an ssh tunnel from localhost:80
to prod_machine:localhost:80, then make some entry into my /etc/hosts to fake
the dns name. Then browse to http://myurl/plone, no problem, i have the content,
and all http request are satisfied (js  co.).

I really don't know how to debug that, can it be because the request enter from
cygwin, go out to windows re enter cygwin and go for the client?

The fact that throught the ssh tunnel, when i hit the nginx server on my plone
install (like as normal, i dont hit plone but nginx) work perfectly lives me
without words. Other strange thing is that the CAS application, also http
reverse proxified work like a charm.

Other thing is that if i use the windows nginx binary from nginx website, with
equal configuration, it works. The only thing is nginx running out of cygwin
stack and compiled for win32.

If someone has some suggestions
