RE: [Zope] ZCatalog dynamic sites
Dimitris, Yes, ZCatalog cannot index methods which require call arguments. Pages generated from SQL data either use "brains" of SQL methods or squery string arguments of a DTML method, and therefore need to be passed arguments and cannot be cataloged. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 21, 2000 2:44 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Zope] ZCatalog dynamic sites Hi all, I have a Zope site that uses MySQL to dynamically create some pages. What I want is the ability to search throughout the site, INCLUDING the pages that are database-driven. It seems to me that ZCatalog only finds items that exist *in zope*.

[Zope] RE: [ Zope] ZCatalog dynamic sites
Write a brains class that you would call to catalog and uncatalog insert/update/delete ZSQLmethods: For example: class MyObject: """ Some arbitrary object - MyObjectID - the id of your object MyCatalog - the catalog you want to use to index the sql MyText1 -metadata column in your catalog MyText2 -an additional metadata column in your catalog """ def FullText(self): "an index in your catalog" return "%s %s" % (self.MyText1, self.MyText2) def catalogObject(self): "Catalog me" self.MyCatalog.catalog_object(self, self.MyObjectID) def uncatalogObject(self): "Uncatalog me" self.MyCatalog.uncatalog_object(self.MyObjectID) Hope this helps, Corey ___ 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] ZCatalog dynamic sites
I have a Zope site that uses MySQL to dynamically create some pages. What I want is the ability to search throughout the site, INCLUDING the pages that are database-driven. It seems to me that ZCatalog only=20 finds items that exist *in zope*. Is it something ZCatalog can't do or am I missing anything obvious ? ZCatalog catalogues objects. Objects must help ZCatalog by providing attributes and/or parameterless methods. When the object is indexed, ZCatalog accesses the attributes/methods to obtain the terms the object should be indexed for. And the objects must be URL addressable, because they are itentified inside the catalog by their URL. ZCatalog can index any object that satisfies these requirements. You probably must work that your dynamic objects with database contents do that.
