Netscape was so kind as to direct my message to the entirely wrong

Humblest Apologies,

[Zope-dev] Passing a Folder as a Parameter to a Script

2002-09-10 Thread Edward Pollard

Hello Folks,

A fairly straightfoward question. I'm trying to create some scripts that
allow the folder and file structure of the content to control dynamicly
the content of the menus that present said content.

In a directory are folders. These folders are the "Menu Headings" of the
content.
Beneath each "Menu Heading" are some links in a "submenu" determined by
the files within the associated folder.

If I call the submenu script explicitly in the correct context, it
generates the correct content. However the menu items should not be hard
coded so I want to pass the folder to the script which  generates the
submenu content. I have it all figured out except the parameter passing.

I have included the relevant part of the Page Template at the bottom.

The script menuWidget looks for folders in the current context. The
script subMenuWidget looks for Page Templates in the current context,
but needs to be modified to accept an ObjectManager object as a
parameter. (the "items" object from the "menu" repetition loop)

I've looked around, fidgeted, snooped, and guessed. No luck. I can't
seem to call it correctly. I believe I only need to add a parameter to
the script in the ZMI, and change these lines


(from the template)

submenuitems = context.objectValues('Page Template')
(from subMenuWidget.py)

For completeness I will include the code of subMenuWidget, but I doubt
its relevant to this semantic and syntactic question.

Thanks in Advance.

Edward

PS - if anyone has any good ideas on how to sort the collection of
ObjectManager objects based on the numeric content of the isRanked
comment, advice is appreciated.

>From the Page Template:
---



folder id


 
 
  subfolder
   

 Submenu Here
 
 
   

 
Main Menu Here
   
---


content of subMenuWidget.py
---
submenuitems = context.objectValues('Page Template')
d1 = {}
returnitems = []
for eachItem in submenuitems:
   if eachItem.getProperty('isRanked',0):
  index = eachItem.getProperty('isRanked',1000)
  while d1.has_key(index):
 index = index + 1
  d1[index] = eachItem
keys = d1.keys()
keys.sort()
for key in keys:
   dictObject = d1[key]
   returnitems.append(dictObject)
return returnitems

Hello:

I was just curious as to what the status is on this.
I just had to apply the patch to yet another Win2000 computer.

You can set this to whatever you like, but as I said before it doesn't
make sense to have fewer database connections than threads, so they go
sort of hand-in-hand.

The parameter is the number of ZPublisher "worker" threads.  This is how
many threads are hanging around to service requests that come in to
ZPublisher (typically via ZServer, but not always).  These threads are
*related* to the ZODB (as each one typically accesses it), but are not
"ZODB threads" (there is no such thing).

remember that "-t 20" uses 20 times more memory than "-t 1" .

Might you be better off with a smaller number of threads, and use the memory 
for a huge cache for oracle queries?

Great, thanks :-)

But, am I still limited to max 7 zope threads? I wish to have around 20.
About 1/2 to 1 year ago I recall being told that with

python z2.py -t nrOfThreads

nrOfThreads could be set to whatever but Zope would not use more than 7 in
any case. Is this so still? Can it be changed? And is -t a parameter for
zserver or for the ZODB?

TIA
