[Zope] User DB, GUF, et al broken under 2.1.7?

Josh, This is a "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" question, not a "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" question, so I've moved the thread to there. You can do what you want in a couple of ways: 1: Cookies Can your HTTP clients use Cookies? You can send a cookie on one page and retrieve it on the next. Look at the "Zope Developer's Guide" and for information on Cookies and the RESPONSE variable. Watch out though -- if you pass data in a cookie, and expect to use that data retrieved later, you could be opening yourself up to a security risk. A client could change the data in the cookie to mean something different, and you might never find out. 2: Sessions Use one of the NNNSession products, such as FSSession or SQLSession. These use cookies behind the scenes, but present you with a nice programming interface. Also, your actual data (session variable and so forth) live on the server. The cookie just tells the server where to find them. Thus, no part of your data is entrusted to the client.

Hi, If not, how do you handle email in zope for a web-based system?? just periodically create objects from the contents of /var/spool/mail/user ... or use some other method?? ideally, the object's various properties would be set upon instantiation...stuff like header fields would correspond to properties...etc... For those that handle email in Zope, how do you approach this?? I didn't try it, but I would prefer the following method: First create a Zope-Application that creates objects from an URL like http://your_host/your_appplication?sender=foo@barsubject=the_ultimate_subject;. Then create a mail-filter to pipe the mail to a script. This script gets the headers and other infos from the incoming mail and forms an url for your Zope-application. Pipe this URL to a command-line Browser like lynx. lynx -dump http://your_host/your_appplication?sender=foo@barsubject=the_ultimate_subject;. I hope this should do, what you want ...

Re: [Zope] ZODB or not ZODB?
charset="iso-8859-1" I am implementing a document Library using Zope. It has an exhaustive index with several thousand topics in an outline residing on a PostgreSQL database. This works well and I like it. My question is where is the best place to store the documents themselves? They will be static HTML documents ranging from 1-50Kb in size roughly. There will probably be at least 10,000-15,000 of these documents in the library once all is said and done. In my mind I have three options: 1. Store them on the filesystem. 2. Store them in a PgSQL table as blobs. 3. Store them as DTML Docs in the ZODB. The filesystem, imho. This lets you spread things out over multiple disks and even (perhaps) multiple systems. Worst case you've got 50k x 15k = 750M. Big for a ZODB (?), but no sweat for a file system. PgSQL blobs are not yet ready for prime time. For one thing, I think they are all created in the same directory. And I'm a big PgSQL fan, so this pains me to say, but it is true. They are working on it. See the TOAST project in the postgresql mailing lists. You want to spread the documents out over a couple of directories. I've set up systems where everything had an ID and we'd split things up via digits in the id. I.e. document 252a8b7c is file 25/2a/7b/25218b7c. You could even compress the files if you wanted to. And you could use the "LocalFileSystem" (is that it?) product to serve up the files through Zope. You could tweak it to decompress too. I would like to eventually have full text searching capabilities, so that makes #1 less attractive (I would likely need my own Python method to do it). #2 is somewhat of a pain to implement due to limitations in the PgSQL row size and text searching would be slow. With #3 I could in theory use a ZCatalog to implement the searching, so that is done for me. I'd put the full text search into PostgreSQL. When the doc comes in, strip out the keywords and index it. Is ZODB up to the task of storing this quantity of objects? What problems might I run into? Is it a wise idea, could a data.fs file of this size (~3-400MB) become too easily corrupted? Should I use a separate data.fs file just to store the documents (ie using mountedFileStorage)? Or is it better to use method #1 or #2? Information from anyone with experience in this regard is greatly appreciated. We implemented a system using #1. Actually, we had lots of little documents so we concatted and gziped them in batches of 200, keeping the filename, offset, and length. Turns out it was quick enought to unzip the file and pick out the document of interest. And batching them up kept the compression ratio up. System worked great, but was cancelled about a week before it was going to go online. ouch. I'll let others speak to 3. I've never had a problem with ZODB, but I've never put 750MB in it. -- cary -Casey Duncan [EMAIL PROTECTED] --__--__-- ___ 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 )

Re: [Zope] newbie changingover to zope from html/cgi??
can i replace javascript with python/DTML. I have used drop down menus in the pages using javascript. Is these available in Zope or is there some way of using these. I'd keep the drop-down menus in javascript. You can do similar things in zope (i.e. the tree tag or the tab bar at the top of the management interface), but then every change is a fetch back to the web server. If you keep the javascript then it all happens at the client. If you want you can generate the javascript with dhtml. That way the contents of the menus can follow your site. You'd have to set the comtent type so that the browser thinks it is javascript.

Deryk Barker [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: zope [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Zope] Worldpilot and imap problem Looking through the archives I couldn't find anything which semed quite relevant, so: I'm currently running Linux mandrake 7.02 and have enabled the IMAP (4.7-7) server. I can read/write mail via netscape using imap, so I presume the setup is OK. (Although i can't quite get pine to talk to it, maybe something isn't quite right). Unfortunately, whenever I log onto worldpilot (and yes I have edited the DOMAIN.py file) the hourglass appears, presumably while attempting to fetch my mail and top shows me a python process running as zope, chewing up anything up to 80-90% of the CPU. All that seems to work is restarting zope. I would guess that you are using the Washington University IMAP daemon, which has unfortunately chosen to treat your entire home directory as a possible mailbox -- what is probably happening is that you are not really hung, but are stuck running stat() on every file under your home directory. To test this, add a new, bogus user to your system, and clean out any "skeleton" cruft from ~/bogus. Try logging in to WorldPilot -- if that works, then you need to search the archives from February for notes on WU IMAP. Trimming the contents of my mailbox down to just 6 messages didn't seem to make any difference. Anyone shed any light? Oh yes, I have applied the imap.py.diff patch to the python library. -- === Tres Seaver[EMAIL PROTECTED] Digital Creations"Zope Dealers"http://www.zope.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 )

There are people who have experience with giant ZODBs... some people have run into the 2GB ext2fs file size limit. My Data.fs has been around ~100MB. FileSystem Storage is really quite stable, and is not likely to get corrupted no matter what the size. If you need to store the docs in multiple drives, you can use the mountable storages to set up another file on the other disk. One thing to be aware of: 10-15K documents is too much for a single Folder. You either want to break the docs up into multiple folders, or hang on for the BTreeFolder product. One other nice thing about storing in the ZODB: it's pretty easy to make your documents automatically add themselves to the ZCatalog. No need to manually update the indexes.

Re: [Zope] Problem with adding items to ZClass instance
I discovered something bizarre that happens in my 2.1.4 and 2.2b1 installations. Bizarre, yes, unusual, no. I have a ZClass based on ObjectManager. In an instance of the ZClass, I can "Add" most of the available objects (DTML Documents, DTML Methods, User Folder, MailHost to name a few). However, for at least two items (TinyTable and ZMySQL DB Connection), when I add them, they show up in the container folder, not in the ZClass instance. Then, if I check it to delete it, it gives a "does not exist" error. Upon refreshing the container folder, the item still shows, but then I *can* delete it. Equally interesting is that I can Copy the item from the container folder and successfully Paste it into the ZClass instance. However, since ZMySQL DB Connections don't support Copy/Paste, that won't work. What's going on? Is it a problem with my ZClass, the Product manage_add, or Zope? Or me? This is not so easy to answer. ZClasses do strange things to adding items. If your ZCLass definition (in the Product) is nested in another ZClass, then it is your ZClass. If the ZClass definition is defined in the top level of your product. There may be other things going on, including all of the above ;-) You'll need to provide more details to be able to say more about this. 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 )

My question is now: Do I have to define one Z SQL Method for every SQL statement I want to perform on my database or is it possible to define SQL-statements and database requests in my DTML-method?

[Zope] Re: [Zope-dev] sql-statements in DTML-Methods....
Zope differs from PHP and ASP systems in this regard. I don't think anyone using Zope that I've seen inlines SQL inside DTML.The separation of SQL and presentation via DTML is intentional. Though it's not always as expedient, the intent of the separation is to provide you with layers of abstraction that make it easier to maintain and modify your code later. That said, I imagine you could do it by constructing a string inside DTML that has the sql query and passing it in to a dummy SQL method that performs the query and returns the results. Marc LUDWIG wrote: My question is now: Do I have to define one Z SQL Method for every SQL statement I want to perform on my database or is it possible to define SQL-statements and database requests in my DTML-method? Am I missing something? Any idea?

I would like very much that someone with a successful siteaccess instalation
in a real production site could get in touch with me and try to get this
working.
I just recently asked this question and got it to work. This setup
works if you have several subdomains 'sitea.domain.tld' and
'siteb.domain.tld' etc. It may have to be modified to work with other
setups - don't ask me how!
- create folders sitea, siteb, and so on in your root zodb directory
- put a siteroot in each folder, leaving all fields except name blank
- make a dtml method in the root directory called virtual_hosts or
something, consisting of the following script:
dtml-comment
Get subdomain:
/dtml-comment
dtml-let
hostname="_.string.join(_.string.split(_.string.split(HTTP_HOST,':')[0],
'.')[0], '')"
dtml-comment
Is there a folder named as this subdomain?
/dtml-comment
dtml-try
dtml-if "[hostname]"
dtml-comment
Set logical root:
/dtml-comment
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('SiteRootPATH', '/')"
dtml-comment
Add physical root:
/dtml-comment
dtml-call "REQUEST.path.append(hostname)"
/dtml-if
dtml-except KeyError
dtml-call
"RESPONSE.redirect('http://www.domain.tld/site_not_found')"
/dtml-try
/dtml-let
- Create a Site Access Rule in the root folder and have it call this
method.
This should work, but don't ask me how (credit goes to Ethan Mindlace
Freeman, who gave me these instructions). Good luck!

Let me apologize in advance because i think this is going to turn out to be
a really stupid question. I'm never gonna know the answer if i don't ask it
though. :-\
I've seen this mentioned a lot (advice not to write application logic in
DTML). If one wants to use pure python (and not Products and not external
methods) to create complex actions/relationships, then where does one place
this code? Obviously i can litter my DTML with python expressions, but this
seems to be what is being recommended against strongly. Is there a way to
use python "correctly" without writing a product and without encapsulating
it in an external method?
You have two choices:
1) Use PythonMethods, found at:
http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/PythonMethod
These work like DTML Methods, only you write them in Python. They are
relatively safe, also.
2) Create a base class in Python, register it with Zope as a ZClass
Base, and specify it as a parent class to your ZClass.
i.e.:
FILE: TestBase.py
-
class TestBase:
"""My ZClass Base class."""
def __init__(self):
self.foo = 'Foo'
def getFoo(self):
return self.foo
def setFoo(self, value):
self.foo = value
def initialize(context):
context.registerBaseClass(TestBase)
FILE: __init__.py
-
import TestBase
def initialize(context):
TestBase.initialize(context)
Put these two files in your lib/python/Products/TestBase directory.
Then, restart your Zope.
Now, add a new product called Test. Inside it, create a ZClass called
'Test' with a meta-type of 'Test'. Specify TestBase as the base
class.
Inside the Test ZClass, create a DTML Method called index_html. Give
it the following contents:
dtml-var standard_html_header
P
Initial foo: dtml-var getFoo
/P
P
dtml-call expr="setFoo('Hello, world.')
New foo: dtml-var getFoo
/P
dtml-var standard_html_footer
Create an instance of the Test ZClass, and view its index_html.
Voila.
Hope this helps,
tesmia,
~c

Hello,
I'm sure this is simple, but have not been able to come up with the correct

Yep, there's always a simple way.. (o8
If I do this,
dtml-call "FSSession['username'].update(REQUEST.form)"
and then retrieve with,
FSSession['username']
I get {'username':'something'}
when of course all I want is something.
What you really should use is something more like:
dtml-call "FSSession.set('username', REQUEST.form['username'])"
or, as is acceptible MOST of the time (when there is not another object of
the same name hanging about ) :
dtml-call "FSSession.set('username', username)"
Thanks much,
Rick
No problems.
Have a better one,
