Hi, I'm currently writing a transform utility (somewhat like portal_transforms in Plone) for my Zope3 project. I think this will be a usable component to others - would something like this be interesting to include in the Zope3 core?
The utility converts a mimetype to a different mimetype, i.e. text/plain -> text/html application/x-rest -> text/html text/html -> application/pdf etc. Of course, using separate transformers (much like how the Catalog / indexes are implemented). I'm planning to add 'chaining' of conversion as well, i.e. using the conversions described above, it should be possible to query the transform utility for a transformation from application/x-rest to application-pdf, but it seems some people already find this too complex for a generic zope3 utility. Any thoughts on what specific functionality such a utility should/should not provide? Cheers Ivo -- Drs.
