Check for when your root object gets added. I'm not sure if an event is fired off when something 'becomes a site'. My pattern is to have an Interface and Content Class for the site, and have the following in 'site.py': from zope.app import zapi from zope.interface import implements from zope.app.component.interfaces import ISite from zope.app.component.interfaces.registration import ( ActiveStatus, InactiveStatus, IRegistered) from zope.app.component.site import (LocalSiteManager, UtilityRegistration, setSite) from zope.app.container.interfaces import IObjectAddedEvent from zope.app.intid import IntIds from zope.app.intid.interfaces import IIntIds def setupSiteManagerSubscriber(event): """ event is supposed to be an IObjectAddedEvent An event subscriber which calls setupSiteManager when a Site folder is added. This ensures that there's enough placeful context in place for the site configuration and utility registration to happen whenever a Site is added and an IObjectAddedEvent is fired off. """ assert IObjectAddedEvent.providedBy(event) if IMyApplicationSite.providedBy(event.object): setupSiteManager(event.object) def setupSiteManager(context): """ Configures the application manager's local utilities. """ if not ISite.providedBy(context): context.setSiteManager(LocalSiteManager(context)) # Required for getUtility to work within this request setSite(context) # Get the default registration default = context.getSiteManager()['default'] reg_manager = default.registrationManager if 'intid' not in default: # There's a shorter way to do this, but I can never remember what it is intid = IntIds() default['intid'] = intid intids_reg = UtilityRegistration('', IIntIds, intid) reg_manager.addRegistration(intids_reg) intids_reg.status = ActiveStatus # Set up the 'auth' utility if 'auth' not in default: # This is a custom function that wraps up all of the work involved # setting up the pluggable auth utility and its sources. from myapp.security.browser import establish establish.createAuthenticationUtility( default, realm='Killer App', registerAs='' ) # etc... And then in configure.zcml: <subscriber for="zope.app.container.interfaces.IObjectAddedEvent" handler=".site.setupSiteManagerSubscriber"/> -- Jeff Shell _______________________________________________ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users
