[Zope-dev] Passing namespace to method
How do I construct a method of an object, so that whenever that method
is called, the current namespace is passed with it?
I.e.:
class myclass:
[...]
def myfunc(self, context):
if context['sequence-index'] == 10:
raise 'sequence-index is %s' % \
context['sequence-index']
called from DTML, like so:
dtml-in "objectValues('Spam')"
dtml-var myfunc
/dtml-in
will raise an exception if sequence-index is 10 or more?
Specifically, the reason I want this function is that I feel using
dtml-if sequence-even
tr bgcolor="dtml-var color_sequence_even"
dtml-else
tr bgcolor="dtml-var color_sequence_odd"
/dtml-if
is a bit tedious (and ugly!) in the long run..
If this isn't implemented, where would the right place to implement it
be?

RE: [Zope] Gadfly
I am not sure what you all are talking about, but in anticipation of a more adequate solution I am using a Gadfly database for a few years (sic!) now. The table was created with a Z SQL method and is populated with a second Z SQL method. Every now and then, when a restart of Zope is necessary, that does not affect the contents of my Gadfly table in any sense. I guess the "commit" is taken care of by the Z SQL method then? Furthermore, I live with the assumption that every time the table is accessed it is loaded into RAM in its entirety. Has that anything to do with the notion of persistence? cb -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dieter Maurer Sent: dinsdag 31 oktober 2000 22:38 To: Chris Withers Cc: jacintha menezes; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Zope] Gadfly Chris Withers writes: jacintha menezes wrote: I am using Gadfly database for Employee details.Kindly let me know whether there is any maximum limit for the space available.

[Zope] acl_users API
Hi I have given up trying to manipulate acl_users from DTML for now - I'm sure it's possible because here and there on this list and on the Zope site I see hints that it can be done. However, I can't find (for example) a HOWTO anywhere that describes the API of acl_users and what you can do with it. Someone out there must do this sort of thing all the time, so don't be shy, write that HOWTO! (Or if I'm being really thick and there is one, just let me know where it is!) Failing that, maybe someone can suggest where to look in the Zope python source to find the methods acl_users exposes.

RE: [Zope] My Items will not show themself in manage_main (objectItems)
From: Ender [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
First os all. Thank you for the patience. I know it is boring to "Solve
other peoples problems for them", but I am really trying hard myself,
reading the source
of Zope and other products. It's just such a steap learning curve because it
is underdocumented. (I have 6+ years of experience in web scripting and 12+
in programming + database overall, so usually i catch on fast.)
I was under the impression that when I inherit ObjectManager that my
object
would be a complete ObjectManager. But do I have to overwrite some
methods
with my own?
No you don't but generally an objectmanager would wants to add some
custom logic, like a Folder which is a specialized objectmanager.
I don't want that in this product. It should just be a plain folder, where
anything can be put. Well at least Foders, images and dtml methods.
ok, i'm not certain that i understand your problem. you original problem
was getting dtml methods to show up in the manage views. in your product
your it appears that your methods aren't really dtml methods that are
contained within the objectmanager but rather class methods of the
discussion class. to have them show up in the manage_views you need to
change them to be methods that are added to a discussion object.
In my mxm_diskuss class I have a list containing messages:
self.testComments = [.] (will be renamed to "comments" when it's done.)
These comments are not meant to be seen in the folder view, they should only
be visible when called through dtml methods. like this method to make a list
of all messages:
index_html:
dtml-var standard_html_header
dtml-in testComments
ba href="view?id=dtml-var id"dtml-var title/a/b
By: dtml-var author idtml-var date/ibr
/dtml-in
dtml-var standard_html_footer
What I find "brilliant" about the idea is that when a customer wants a
discussion group I only have to change 3 standard dtml files to give it a
new functional interface. And I can build a library of look and feels. And
there is no recursion in it so it will behave like a list, and be easily
codeable from dtml.
The last discussion product ever needed :-) It will be ZPL (when it's done.)
here some code that illustrates how.
# add a folder for view
self.manage_addFolder('views')
# get a file handle
fh = open(join(Views_Dir, 'DiscussionIndex.dtml'))
# add a DTML method with contents of the file.
self.views.manage_addDTMLMethod(id='news_center_index_html', file=fh)
a method created this way will show up in the manage_view of the object.
My problem is not adding object programatically, but doing it in the
management interface. When I add them I can press "add edit" and I can
paste the dtml source, and the method works. But they don't show up on the
list when viewing the folder.
Well I guess that if I dont have to do anything special to add objects to an
objectmanager, then I must have a permission problem when viewing them. I
guess I will look more into that. Currently I am lookin for a permission
that prevents seing the ObjectItems in an objectmanager, but so far without
any luck.
grr... documentation.
Kind regards Max M

[Zope] zope.org mistake
Um... I inadvertently deleted the Data.fs whilst compressing it. Then I compounded my mistake by not remembering that the storage server still had the inode open, and closed the storage server.

[Zope] Re:GoLive
Hmmm... I don't know if this would apply..but..there *is* a howto on a method to allow requests for index.html tobe redirected to index_html. Basically the executive summary is that methods named as the various possible choices (index.html, index.htm, index.HTML, etc.) containing the single word ' index_html ' .. This has the effect of redirecting requests for those URLs to index_html in each directory. This would probably work in reverse, unless Zope would choke on the extension, which is I assume what you are talking about.. If not, perhaps GoLive, Dreamweaver, etc, could be modified at some level to recognize as their default mime type text/html and not text/plain or whatever it is now.. (untested) so that index_html would be interpreted as a html file... I use BBEdit myself frequently to edit DTML and although the nifty BBEdit formatting capabilities aren't available (and would probably get very confused by DTML if they were..) it still beats anything else I've seen for editing *existing* dtml pages.. (like Stephen said..) My experiences have been with BBEdit 5.x, has anyone tried BBEdit 6.x with DTML? Still, this is not the optimal fix, because I still use BBEdit, for example on a lot of other kinds of textfiles and HTML as the default behavior would be something I would have to keep turning off.. There has to be an easy way...I would be surprised if there wasn't some way to configure DTML capabilities into these programs.. it just will take a little creative thinking... Of course a WYSIWYG tool could never in any way simulate the dynamics of a Zope site, so using them would still require DTML competency.. -Chris on 1/11/00 10:47 am, Stephan Goeldi at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Is there?

I just sent a message explaining what happened to this list. I'm also curious about the zope.org site performance. Zope is said to capable of a million hits per day on commodity hardware, yet zope.org receives only about 20% of that on its busiest days. This would not be remarkable except that the response times from zope.org seem to usually be 10 seconds or so. I am on a T-1 line and 13 hops and 80ms from the zope.org server. My current tracking shows that zope.org is pretty snappy until the server gets attacked from a bunch of spiders. Because zope.org has a huge quantity of pages (500+MB of (packed) content and climbing), and because objects get loaded into ram as they get accessed, accessing *everything* on the site multiple times causes zope to load things in out a lot, causing it to slow down. IOW, if you have a zope running with, say, 100 mb of content (that's 2048 50 kb pages) on a box with, say 256mb of ram, and you have your caching policy set very liberally, then you should be able to hit 30 requests per second, or 2.5 million hits per day. Zope.org will be on hardware that stretches the notion of "commodity" soon, but it will be sufficient such that all 500mb of our objects can be floating about in ram if need be.

[Zope] FastCGI behind ZServer

However, I just wonder if anyone have tried having a FastCGI Server behind ZOPE behind Apache?My problem is I have a Apache/Zope site (using proxypass) running for quite some time. And I'm very happy with it. However, until recently, I want to integrate some of my old FastCGI programs into my site. Those FastCGI programs works fine with Apache using mod_fcgi 2.2.8. However, I'd like to make ZOPE act as the middleman so that I can further process the results return from the FastCGI program before publishing to the web. Also, to prevent people from accessing the FastCGI services directly by modifying URLs on their browsers.web - httpd - zope - fastcgiRegards- Nick

[Zope] IMAP and Zope!
Morten says: If this sounds interesting, send me an email.=) Is this one OK? I'm developing an Outlook/WorldPilot replacement which is much more modular in design. It will be released under the GPL. When and where I don't know yet. It stores messages in 'pure' ZODB format (that is, the entire message is broken down and stored in various parts of the object), with _all_ the information from the original message stored, in a structured and indexable way. Watching the growing pains of an recently installed IMAP based Corporate E-Mail system makes me just a little queasy about using ZODB for mass storage. Volume is a very real problem, and Zope has it's own limits that must be considered. I know it's formidable, but you may find the ZPatterns stuff useful. One of the goals is to make it "easy" to swap out one storage for another. At first glance it strikes me as fairly straightforward to capture most of the relevant data that accompanies an E-Mail as RDBM "fields". Of course, a text blob, ZODB, or files may be more appropriate for the actual message content, and certainly for included files. ZODB is such a cool thing, but I'm still struggling with deciding what's best held as native ZODB "objects" vs. other possibilities. ZPatterns eases that quandary by making the choice flexible, and easy to "refactor" (fix!) if / when you decide you "got it wrong". You might also check out the companion products "ExtFile" and "ExtImage" http://www.zope.org/Members/MacGregor/ExtFile which allow storage of "file" type data directly on the file system, yet keep related metadata in ZODB, for ZCataloging, etc. We're also including support for signing/verifying messages, with GnuPG.

[Zope] BBEdit and Zope (was GoLive)
My experiences have been with BBEdit 5.x, has anyone tried BBEdit 6.x with DTML? I've used BBEdit 6.0 for occasional Zope use, and haven't really noticed a difference against version 5.x for editing DTML - but then again, I haven't been looking. The *really* annoying problem with BBEdit 6.0 is that it doesn't respect FTP ports - it assumes the FTP server will be on port 21 - whereas 5.x would let you do zope.nipltd.com:8021 style server names, and did respect the port. I mailed BBEdit technical support and they replied: Is there some way to get BBEdit 6.0 to respect the port number for FTP? No, and BBEdit 5.1 is not designed to do this either. IF it worked in 5.1 this was purely by accident. The FTP tool in BBEdit currently only connect to the standard ftp port. If you need to connect to non-standard ports you should consider Anarchie, NetFinder or Transmit all of which support "Edit in BBEdit: for easy editing of files located on ftp servers. We may provide support for this in a future release but I can not speculate as to when this might be available (or promise that it will be).

[Zope] Products : dependencies (or who's on first?)
Okay, here goes : I installed the PTK product some time ago, decided that it wasn't where I needed to be right now and moved on to something else. Today I finally decided to delete it from my Products folder. Shortly afterwards, I noticed that both my existing FlexFAQ and ZDiscussion objects were "broken" (with the little broken icons in the manager view.) and Zope was spewing errors to STDOUT complaining that it "Could not load oid" (I'm sorry, I don't have the traceback...doh!) I could add new FF/ZD objects but I couldn't access the old ones. I deleted ZDbase and ZDiscussion and restarted Zope. I couldn't import a fresh copy of ZDiscussions.zexp (see error below) but suddenly my old set up is working again. Except I can't create new ZD* objects since the Product isn't installed. ( I can create new FF objects.) In the meantime, when I restart Zope it prints errors about not being able to install the "Wizard" product or the "Demo Portal" Products (see below.) In the meantime, the "PTKDemo" and "PTKBase" Products keep showing up the Products table even though I keep trying to delete them. Can someone please help me understand what on earth is going on? Is the ZODB corrupted? Have I inadvertently set up some level of dependency across Products? I have done Google searches and seen that this has cropped up on the mailing list before, but I can't seem to figure out how to address the problem or insure that doesn't happen again. I am still pretty new to all of this and I am having a hard time understanding the relationship between alot of seemingly abritrary errors. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Re: [Zope] Mapping tools with Zope
GIS-like applications are definitely a field where Zope can shine. But most of the current MAP-Servers are interfacing with a RDBMS where a lot of the logic is placed into the database. If one thinks of geographic objects in a way of an object database like Zope, there is a different architecture needed. For example I think of a RTree indexing technic for the objects stored in the ZODB. This would open a lot of possibilities and would cure one of the problems of current GIS , where everything needs to be stored with a geographical view, which makes it sometimes cumbersome to store legacy information or data with a non gis semantic in these systems. On top of the RTree index one could build a python framework to present the geographical part of this data. These are just thoughts from an earth scientist, who needs to deal with this problem, and is in search for a solution. __Janko -- Institut fuer Meereskunde phone: 49-431-597 3989 Dept.

Hi all!
I am working on a project using zope and reportlab.
The goal is to have uploaded images end up in a formatted PDF file.
I have both of these halves completed, I need to figure out how to connect

I have been using SquishFile.py as the wrapper around uploaded images, as is
done in squishdot. The few image types I have tried have displayed fine on

How would you go about wrapping the file in a PIL.Image() ? I've been
trying things similar to:
cardimage=PIL.Image.open(self.uploadedimage)
c.drawInlineImage(cardimage, 1,1)
This gives an error in reportlab.canvas.convert()
I tried using PIL.image.fromstring(), but I can't quite get the it to work
out:
filebytes=[str(self.uploadedimage.file_bytes()), 'bytes']
cardimage=PIL.Image.fromstring(self.uploadedimage.content_type(),
filebytes,
self.uploadedimage.file_data())
c.drawInlineImage(cardimage, 1,1)
This gives a typeerror: PIL/Image.py, line 848, in new
has anyone succesfully done this? can I just Leave the SquishFile wrapper
off if it is ONLY going to be images that get uploaded?

[Zope] Mapping tools and Zope - SIG? Fishbowl?
I'm writing to all who responded to my query regarding mapping tools for Zope or others interested in this issue. In one of the responses, was the suggestion to start a SIG or Fishbowl. At this point in time, I'm in a research phase for a project where a mapping interface will be needed in Zope based web application. We are starting to move into the design phase and so some technical decisions will start to be made in the next two months at which point we will begin building something. I've received a number of other interesting replies about GIS and Zope and possible solutions. These have ranged from "I know about this" to "I use this" to "We should build something". I think there might be sufficient interest in at least starting a SIG or Fishbowl or separate list about the problem. Is there?? I'm personally a bit hesitant to even consider building yet another GIS product. There are many of them out their (see www.freegis.org) for web display, cartography, spatial analysis, etc. Obviously our interest here is web interfaces, but these other products are testimony to the ubiquitous nature of the problem; a good suite of comprehensive GIS software solutions just doesn't exist, either for free or commercially (IMHO). The approach my team will likely take on our project will be to examine existing open source products and determine if there is one that is sufficient to meet our needs and simply use it. If we can build some tools around this product to facilitate it's future use with Zope by others, we will open source those. I would welcome the discussion of this issue, since it is important and it is one of the up and coming needs for web applications. I would welcome feedback from others who undoubtedly have significant experience and knowledge to bring to this problem.

[Zope] XML-RPC vs External method?
Hello all,
I have setup a query form to query a small MySQL database using
Zope. It consists of:
1. ZMySQL Database Connection (ZMySQLDA)
2. ZSQL method
3. A search interface.
Now, what I want is the user to have the option of viewing the
results in HTML or raw XML. I think there can be two approaches
to this: 1. External method, or 2. XML-RPC.
1. External method: Replaces the ZMySQL database connection
with an external Python function called 'mysqldb_XML', pieces
of which follow:
def mysqldb_XML(self,query):
"""
Use a MySQL SAX driver to map relational data to XML.
Hacked from PyXML saxdemo.py. The MySQL driver is a modified
version of Sean McGrath's drv_mysql.py ("XML Processing with
Python").
"""
from xml.sax import saxexts, saxlib, saxutils, writer
import sys,urllib
#Our MySQLdb XML driver;
driver="xml.sax.drivers.drv_mysqldb"
.
out = sys.stdout;
p=saxexts.make_parser(driver)
dh=writer.PrettyPrinter(out,dtdinfo=info)
try:
p.setDocumentHandler(dh)
return p.parse(query)
except IOError,e:
return in_sysID+": "+str(e)
except saxlib.SAXException,e:
return str(e)
Inside Zope, I get the ZSQL 'query' and do something like:
dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type','text/xml')"
dtml-in "mysqldb_XML(query)"
dtml-var sequence-item
/dtml-in
2. XML-RPC: It seems to me XML-RPC could do this too, but
I don't know how one would print out the raw XML response.
Could I have a Zope client request the ZSQL method above,
but instead of sending it to my output DTML method, I just
print the raw-XML stream? Examples would be helpful:-)
It seems to me if XML-RPC already produces an XML formatted
stream, it would be more efficient to just use it (unless
there is yet another way in Zope I'm not aware of). Is it
possible? Is there any reason to want to use the external
method instead?
Thanks for your comments,

[Zope] Multi-lingual sites and workflow
I was wondering if anyone here has used Zope to create bilingual/multi-lingual/localised websites. I've done a number of bilingual (French and English) projects in recent years using plain old html where the two language versions had to be kept mostly symmetrical and its been a bit of a pain as the site grows to keep the two versions in synch and make sure the translations are done on time etc. Its seems that Zope might help manage these kinds of projects - by smoothing the workflow - tracking what needs translation, perhaps sending stuff to the translator automatically, reporting on what's been done by who and comparing the two language versions to make sure they are parallel. And perhaps even sharing a common architecture - so that you didn't need two sets of DTML methods etc. I'm wondering if this fits into other generic Zope workflow products that people have talked about developing or if it would have to be built from scratch.

return in_sysID+": "+str(e)
except saxlib.SAXException,e:
return str(e)
Inside Zope, I get the ZSQL 'query' and do something like:
dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type','text/xml')"
dtml-in "mysqldb_XML(query)"
dtml-var sequence-item
/dtml-in
2. XML-RPC: It seems to me XML-RPC could do this too, but
I don't know how one would print out the raw XML response.
Could I have a Zope client request the ZSQL method above,
but instead of sending it to my output DTML method, I just
print the raw-XML stream? Examples would be helpful:-)
It seems to me if XML-RPC already produces an XML formatted
stream, it would be more efficient to just use it (unless
there is yet another way in Zope I'm not aware of). Is it
possible? Is there any reason to want to use the external
method instead?
Thanks for your comments,

I am not sure what is causing this or how to go about tracking it down. Is there anything I can do? make sure you start zope with the STUPID_LOG_FILE environment variable set. Then, when your zope dies, look at the tail end of the log file. It should have a line that has an "Aiieee ! 12312 exited with error code: xx". The error code is what you should be looking at- it will tell you what your OS reports the problem as being. error 11 on linux is segfault, which *may* be hardware related. hope this helps, -- -mindlace- Zopatista Community Liason ___ 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] incorporating generated sub-websites within a Zope site
Fred Yankowski [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: OK, this problem is largely the result of the crappy web-design tool she's using, but I really have no control over that. The subsite manage/author doesn't know HTML and would be completely helpless with Zope's "through the web" editing interface. You could of course convert the structure of the site in DTML documents that include the contents from Structured Text documents. Anyone can learn STX, so she could edit the contents through the Zope interface. Also a possibility, although I'm way out of my league here (I'm not a Windows user): WebDAV under '98. If you can explore the documents with the '98 explorer, you should be able to edit them with any tool, not? (I believe that anyone can learn HTML as well, given someone with reasonable didactic skills and an hour or two of time). -- Cees de Groot http://www.cdegroot.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG 1024D/E0989E8B 0016 F679 F38D 5946 4ECD 1986 F303 937F E098 9E8B Forge your CipherSaber and list it: http://www.xs4all.nl/~cg/ciphersaber/ ___ 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 )
