Using pyjamas, you can have common code for business logic and also for the GUI on web and desktop. The main data transfer/persistence mechanism in pyjamas is JSON-RPC, so that part of the model can be zope or anything that can do JSON-RPC. If you like wxPython GUI code, pyjamas code is very similar, and there are examples using PureMVC (http://puremvc.org) in the repository. You cannot, at present, use zope.interface to do automatic widget generation in pyjamas. On the other hand, it is really easy to do custom widgets and client-side display logic. You write your widgets and their behavior in python, not in HTML and javascript. Styling, however, can be done with css. In the eight months since I first experimented with pyjamas (http://www.mail-archive.com/zope@zope.org/msg31618.html), it has improved substantially. Fewer gotchas. More joy.

Re: [Zope] Experiment: Pyjamas with Zope
Quick note. I found that The "fix pyjamas" question in my previous note could be handled with a ~100 line python module that makes a new class descending from pyjamas.HTTPRequest.HTTPRequest, but overriding asyncPostImpl with a supported content-type, e.g., "application/json". The module is mostly copy-paste from pyjamas.JSONService and pyjamas.HTTPRequest, but I'll provide it to anyone interested. It was really simple to do.

[Zope] Experiment: Pyjamas with Zope
So, I have a need to put together a more elaborate web page. Lots of pop-up dialog boxes and dynamically-updated choice lists. How to do that? I take a look at Pyjamas http://pyjs.org. Pretty cool. Here's the theory. Write fancy application web page in python using the Pyjamas/GWT API, then "compile" it to javascript. Serve it through zope, which will handle auth/auth. Client-server communication flows through json-rpc calls. What could possibly go wrong? First-off, just a simple test-of-concept. Edit the JSONRPCExample.py file in the examples/jsonrpc folder that came with pyjamas. I'll locate the jsonrpc service in zope's containment root, so I change the uri in EchoServicePython from "/services/EchoService.py" to "/". That's all I need to change. Compile it using the handy "build.sh" that's in the same folder. Look in the "output" folder and see what we got. Wow. a bunch of files. JSONRPCExample.IE6.cache.html Mozilla.cache.html OldMoz.cache.html Opera.cache.html Safari.cache.html JSONRPCExample.html JSONRPCExample.nocache.html corner_dialog_bottomleft.png corner_dialog_bottomleft_black.png corner_dialog_bottomright.png corner_dialog_bottomright_black.png corner_dialog_edge.png corner_dialog_edge_black.png corner_dialog_topleft.png corner_dialog_topleft_black.png corner_dialog_topright.png corner_dialog_topright_black.png history.html pygwt.js tree_closed.gif tree_open.gif tree_white.gif I'm lazy, so instead of doing a bunch of resource or view directives in ZCML, I let my paste.ini do the handling. [app:pyjs1] use=egg:Paste#static document_root=/home/jwashin/projects/pyjamas/pyjamas-0.4/examples/jsonrpc/output then, I link that in with the composite app. [composite:Paste.Main] use = egg:Paste#urlmap / = zope /images = images /pyjs1 = pyjs1 Now, to get to JSONRPCExample.html, I need to go to http://website/pyjs1/JSONRPCExample.html But first, I need to actually handle the json-rpc requests in zope. Make a servicetest.py. Almost exactly similar to EchoService.py in the output/services folder. from zif.jsonserver.jsonrpc import MethodPublisher class Services(MethodPublisher): def echo(self, msg): return msg def reverse(self, msg): return msg[::-1] def uppercase(self, msg): return msg.upper() def lowercase(self, msg): return msg.lower() Now, a ZCML incantation. Start zope, and go to http://website/pyjs1/JSONRPCExample.html Nice page. Click the "Send to Python Service" button. Server Error or Invalid Response: ERROR 0 - Server Error or Invalid Response Damn. Pull up tcpwatch and see what we are getting. Aha. pyjamas app is sending jsonrpc with a content-type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded, so zope is not handing it off to zif.jsonserver for handling. Fix pyjamas or let zif.jsonserver handle this content-type? In zif.jsonserver's configure.zcml, in the "publisher" directive, add application/x-www-form-urlencoded to mimetypes. Restart zope. Go to http://website/pyjs1/JSONRPCExample.html It works. Change permissions in the jsonrpc:view directive. Restart zope. Go to the page. Page loads. Push the button, and I get a Basic HTTP Authentication dialog. Nice.

I Googled back through and found that the problem usually manifests when
you have a 'cache-control':'no-cache' header. The above explanation was
not quite right.
Anyway, either removing the "no-cache" header or using one that allows
the local machine to keep a copy should work, if the problem is in fact
a 'no-cache' header.

[Zope] Puzzling Import/Export problem
A friend in Russia is still using my old ZClasses QSurvey product. He is attempting to copy an installation from one machine to another, and upgrade Zope to 2.6.4. Exporting the product and instances works fine, but some object instances will not import correctly. A product instance is a folderish object that contains other objects. One particular folderish subobject will not import correctly; all the others import fine. The .zexp of the entire product instance, with subitems, etc., imports OK, but the one folderish object shows up as "broken" in the ZMI. Exporting that object as XML and reimporting after correcting the appropriate class ID string results in a "BadPickleGet" error 7. Traceback (innermost last): Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 113, in publish Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 40, in call_object Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 561, in manage_importObject Module OFS.ObjectManager, line 578, in _importObjectFromFile Module ZODB.ExportImport, line 65, in importFile Module OFS.XMLExportImport, line 119, in importXML Module ZODB.ExportImport, line 75, in importFile Module transaction._transaction, line 368, in commit Module transaction._transaction, line 297, in savepoint Module transaction._transaction, line 294, in savepoint Module transaction._transaction, line 656, in __init__ Module ZODB.Connection, line 1034, in savepoint Module ZODB.Connection, line 470, in _commit Module ZODB.ExportImport, line 140, in _importDuringCommit BadPickleGet: 7 I have examined the xml export, and the only thing I can think of that might be a problem is that some of the object IDs for some contained items are base64-encoded and may contain Russian characters. But that does not seem to be the problem, since a similar, smaller import with only ascii characters fails with the same traceback and BadPickleGet:10. I realize that this might be an uninteresting edge-case. My backup plan is to write a script to pull the data out of the XML export and recreate the objects. Does anyone have any pointers on that? I am having trouble figuring out how that file is organized. For completeness, I am using zope-2.8.0, but this happens on 2.7.6 as well. -Jim Washington ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Re: [Zope] porting from Python Methods to PythonScripts in2.3.0;LoginManager too
The text of an external method for converting Python Methods to Python
Scripts was posted to the list a while back. I forget who because I
just copied and pasted at the time. Anyway, credit to whoever, and
apologies for not having the name.
I took that and made something that works for me as a Python Script.
(Though my Methods have been rather simple...)
Standard caveats, YMMV, etc, but it does a quick pass on the Methods in
the folder where it is and makes Scripts from them when you hit the
'test' tab, saving the old ones as methodname.old. It's not perfect
(e.g., it will import random if you use whrandom); it's just a bit
easier than manually editing (copy, paste, edit) for the same
functionality. It would be pretty easy to recurse all folders and
change them all, but I am not that bold yet. It seems debugged enough
to post. I am sure someone will let me know if otherwise.

Re: [Zope] ZClasses meet PythonScripts, sample request
Hi, Tim
What is the name of the propertysheet in your ZClass that these values
are on? Is it 'job_info'?
Where is the editFormAction Python Script? It should be in your ZClass's
/methods. If you are instead acquiring it from a Folder somewhere, you
will need to use 'context' instead of 'container' inside the Python
Script.

Hi, Tim You do not need to mess with the Python Script bindings.

Re: [Zope] ZClasses meet PythonScripts, sample request
Hi, Tim
I am not working through that example, but the below is a start on what
you seem to need. Let me know what you think.
good luck!
-- Jim Washington
***
You probably want the work to be done in the context of an instance of
the class, so assure you have "context" bound to the Python Script on
the "bindings" tab. It's bound by default.
You might want to name the Script in a Zopish way to distinguish it from
other scripts that may do other things. I would probably call it
manage_changeCDProperties.
You will want to pass REQUEST to it so you can use it like the Zope
builtins:
containerName.CDInfoName.manage_changeCDProperties(REQUEST)
So, put REQUEST in the parameters list.
(BTW, REQUEST is available as context.REQUEST if you choose not to pass
REQUEST.)
Inside the script, you would use Zope's manage_changeProperties method:
context.propertysheets['cd_info'].manage_changeProperties(REQUEST)
-or-
context.propertysheets.cd_info.manage_changeProperties(REQUEST)
You're done, unless you want to get fancy and process the items
separately.
If you want to get fancy, REQUEST.form['title'], REQUEST.form['artist'],
and REQUEST.form['date_purchased'] are available to you.
For example, if you want to assure title case for title and artist (try
this in DTML first, just to get the scope of how much easier it is in a
Python Script):
import string
dontCapitalize = ['a','in','of', 'for']
localPropertiesDict = {}
for aproperty in ['title','artist']:
theProperty = string.strip(REQUEST.form[aproperty])
splitWords = string.split(theProperty)
newlist = []
for aWord in splitWords:
if aWord in dontCapitalize and aWord != splitWords[0]:
newlist.append(string.lower(aWord))
else:
newlist.append(string.capitalize(aWord))
newValue = string.join(newlist,' ')
localPropertiesDict[aproperty] = newValue
context.propertysheets['cd_info'].manage_changeProperties(localPropertiesDict)
To delete something from the ZODB, pass a list of ids to
manage_delObjects in your container.
To delete them all:
thelist = context.containerName.objectIds('CD_Info')
context.containerName.manage_delObjects(thelist)
Let's say you lent out all your Britney Spears CDs and don't expect to
get them back. How do you update your collection?
Make a form that allows you to select 'Britney Spears' into a variable
called 'deleteThisArtist'
Make a Python Script that is called by the action for the form. This
goes into your class for CD collection, whatever you have named it.
import string
#we make this case-insensitive by converting all to uppercase
deleteMe = string.upper(context.REQUEST.form['deleteThisArtist'])
listToDel = []
for CD in context.objectValues('CD_Info'):
if string.upper(CD.artist) == deleteMe:
listToDel.append(CD.id) #in Zope-2.3.0+, you should use .getId()
instead of .id
context.manage_delObjects(listToDel)

Re: [Zope] get property of type 'list'
Hi, Andrei I think I have it figured out. I just submitted something similar to the Collector about an analogous problem I have been having with 'lines' properties. When you create your tokens property, you should make its value a string, like: '1 2 3' not a list: [1, 2, 3] If your data is in a list and you want to use that list as tokens, you need to join the list into a string first: mylist = ['1', '2', '3'] fortokens = string.join(mylist,' ') That's the python, but you can do it in DTML using _.string.join(. Be careful to convert your integers to strings first. What's happening to you is that the string representation of the list, "[1, 2, 3]" is getting stored verbatim as your tokens property, and ZPublisher/Converters.py is then splitting it on the spaces when you ask for it. Which is how you get that weird '[1,' '2,' '3]'. -- Jim Washington Andrei Belitski wrote: > > Hi! > I add a list property to a DTML document of type 'tokens' (e.g. '[1, 2, > 3]') wenn i try to retrieve it with _.getitem i get '[1,' '2,' '3]' > instead of '1' '2' '3' > How can I get Zope to interpret my property like a list not a string or > whatever else? > Thank you in advance! > > ___ > 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 ) -- Jim Washington Center for Assessment, Evaluation and Educational Programming Department of Teaching and Learning, Virginia Tech ___ 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 )

I am using Python Methods a lot now. Good: no more to get to the objects I need. Yay! no more worrying about closing blocks. Yay! OK, when I make a syntax error, there is no help in the traceback. My Python is getting better and better as a result. To give something back, I have a hint that took me a while to figure out: print '%s' % (self.thevariable) will not work. The first % needs to be escaped like so: print '%s' % (self.thevariable) Now, can I use html_quote in a Python Method? I am letting people enter data for redisplay, and I know some Bozo (TM) will somehow put in "" and break the page. Can I keep this from happening? html_quote does not seem to be in the Python Method namespace.

Re: [Zope] Anonymous user
There might be a couple more variables to consider. If I were trying to get back into my site I would try: 1. Clearing the browser cache 2. Using the "superuser" name and password 3. Going directly to the management pages: /manage_workspace (manage_access does security, and manage_UndoForm has the undo stuff if you just want to undo the last permissions change) 4. Using a different browser (the "username:password@" convention is apparently not handled uniformly by the various browsers). Cookies should not make too much of a difference, but management screens do use them for the tree tags and height/width of edit boxes. You are still using basic authentication, I presume? Keep trying. All is not lost. One of the above or some combination ought to work. -- Jim Washington Priya Ramkumar wrote: > > Hi Jim > > I tried typing the following url but it still logs in as "anonymous user". > The cookies are also disabled in my browser. > > priya > > >Put the username and password in the url like this: > > > >http://managername:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/manage > > > >-- Jim Washington > > > >> Priya Ramkumar wrote: > >> > >> Hi > >> > >> Could anyone please help me with this problem? > >> > >> I changed the default permission for the Anonymous user by adding the > >> permission "View Management screens".

Re: [Zope] ZClasses & inheriting property(sheets) : yes/no?
Hi, Aaron
Yes.
If your parent ZClass is constructed properly, you should be able to add
the parent class's management tabs by setting a "view". On the "Views"
tab, look in the Method list for
propertysheets/[ParentClassPropertySheetName]/manage. The properties on
that sheet are accessible just like any of the child class's properties.

Re:[Zope] Importing data
Please, no HTML posts. I crashed Netscape Mail twice trying to reply. Thanks. But to answer, exporting and importing works just fine if you want to copy parts of an existing zope site. It even works recursively, so if you want to export an entire folder of stuff (or Squishdot site) with subfolders, properties, etc., just go to its enclosing folder's "Import/Export" management tab, and follow the directions for exporting. This will create a .zexp file. To import into the new Data.fs file, put the .zexp file you have created into your [where zope is installed]/import folder on your hard drive. Then open the new site's management interface for zope and go to the same Import/Export tab and use the Import part. If you have 2 Data.fs files and only 1 zope, you can switch back and forth between them (stopping and restarting Zope in between so terrible things do not happen) by moving one and then the other into the appropriate var directory to do exporting, or importing as you want. Copies of the original files will come in handy if you confuse easily like me. -- Jim Washington >Well, I meant that I have some products w/ data setup in the new .fs.
