Hello:
You can get the types from following function. Once you get the list of the types of the object type, you can use it as you want.
 
ptypes = context.portal_types.objectValues()
 
sample script to test is:
 
-------------------------------
ptypes = context.portal_types.objectValues()
 
for ptype in ptypes:
 print ptype
return printed
------------------------------

Subject: [Zope-dev] Is there a function to get the object type?

Hi guys,

 

I’m trying to write a function that checks to see if the current object is a ‘Folder’.   

 

I am using this tutorial as a reference:

 

http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/pre-populated-folder

 

To create a new content object, the following command is used:

 

parent.invokeFactory(id=id, type_name='Folder')
 
 
Is there a function that can check what type this newly created object is? Obviously its ‘Folder’ in this example, but I’d like to be able to get the type_name of an object returned anywhere in my site to see if it is a ‘Folder’. 
 
 
Thanks,
 
Mike
