The notes should be logged *and* used for reporting in the ZMI.
Implementation:
I'm no logging expert, so I might well be missing something. The
state of the art seems to be using the Python logging package (PEP
282). Is it possible to use that framework for reporting as well? It
doesn't look like that.
Replacing the 'note' method in ISetupContext with a more logger like
API and sending the notes to the Python logger *and* to TTW reports
might be the way to go.
There could be a "multiplexer" that logs to the standard Zope event log
*and* keeps the messages in a memory buffer to be displayed in the
browser. This could be done in a separate class or a logging API could
be added to ISetupContext. Should be easy to do, really.
I *think* the current setup tool creates a text file with log messages
in it, and stores that file inside the tool.
Couldn't find anything like that in the setup tool. It collects the
messages returned by handlers, passes them around and forgets them after
the request is finished. The _notes list of the setup context is ignored
completely by the tool.
I would prefer to maintain
the data persistently, rather than in RAM; the API for that could be
extended, of course.
Why would you prefer persistent reports? Wouldn't it be sufficient to
have the messages in the event log?
Cheers,
Yuppie
