Re: [Zope] trying to open a file in database but couldn't
Hi.. thanks for replying and thanks for the helpI didn't realize that I mis type the code. The code what suppose to be .. imageDataFile=StringIO(str(dataID.data))tfw = open(imageDataFile, "r")so, what your saying is that I don't need to open the file that I wanted to read into and extract the data? But how can that be? I originally used tried by extracting info from a file on the computer and it works. But I couldn't do the same thing from the web.. I don't get that I did wrong or missing...How would you write the external method if you were to read a text file that you store in ZOPE database and extract the infromation line by line?Andreas Jung [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --On 25.

If dataId is a string this won't work.
tfw = open(imageDataFile, r)
so, what your saying is that I don't need to open the file that I wanted to
read into and extract the data? But how can that be?
You have to forget about files when you're working with ZODB, because
this Database doesn't have any file in it. Those are all objects and
when you do something like
myobj = getattr(self, 'name')
you'll get an object. This object might be an instance of the File class
and thus behave like a file, but it still is only an object. Your
StringIO constructor already get the content of this object, i.e. the
text that is stored in it, because you give it via myobj.data.
The next thing is, if you already can access the text content via
myobj.data you don't need StringIO.
How would you write the external method if you were to read a text file
that you store in ZOPE database and extract the infromation line by line?
Suppose dataID contains the id of the object something like this:
obj = getattr(self, dataID)
for line in str(obj.data).split('\n'):
dosth_with(line)
That's all.

I'm trying to open a file that is in database but I got this error message insteadcoercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, instance foundI don't quite understand why. My code looks like thisdef imageSetup(self, dataID, REQUEST): from StringIO import StringIO # Get the original image and data in memory and open thefile imageData=getattr(self, dataID) imageDataFile=StringIO(str(imageData.data)) tfw = open(imageDataFile, "r")I upload a text file into ZOPE database and the file consist of six lines of float point numbers that I want to use with REQUEST.setI call this method usingdtml-call "imageSetup(textFile, REQUEST)" can anyone help me... please... did I made a mistake with this code Yahoo!
