That might involve getting support from you though, Dieter, and that's 
not always a pleasant experience ;-)

Especially for people, like you, who are not ready to do their

 it still works fine,
 there is only a line you have to change in its code where it pulls in security
 from cmf to some other cmf module. when starting up cmf tells you what is 
 wrong.
 so its really easy to fix.

Maybe you could take ownership and roll a release, preferably as an egg?

Ho ho ho... surely you jest?!

 Look, you can do it anyway you want but if you want to imply that my 
 suggestion to use Plone  is 'insane' you need to come up with a better 
 alternative than LocalFS.

Actually, I'd back Jens on this one... You swallow Plohn you're 
swallowing one *huge* codebase that will have you trapped with some 
obscure set of versions of stuff (including Zope!) for years to come.

 But of course this is all moot. For most installs the best way to use 
 large javascript libraries is to put it into an apache folder.

Indeed.

That Zope community moved off and became the Plone community long ago.
I'd argue that anyone starting a new project in plain Zope 2 nowadays 
would doesn't already have years of experience with Zope is making a 
mistake...

...and those people would probably use repoze nowadays anyway.

Pointing out you're wrong is not a personal attack. Telling you that you

LocalFS has [not] been updated since 2006.

There is nothing in the zope world  
that is as well maintained as plone. Sorry.

I would like to stress that stable packages (those that do not need to
be continously updated) are in fact a quality sign not an indication
of poor maintenance.


LocalFS (disclamer: it is not maintained by me) has worked unchanged
across many Zope versions. I am using LocalFS-1.3.andreas since march 2005.

For Zope 2.11, I had to make a minor adjustment because the Zope
developers decided to move OFS.content_types to zope.contenttype
without a redirection from old to new place.
I consider this a Zope weakness not one of LocalFS.

For Zope 2.12, another minor adjustment will be necessary, because
the Zope developers decided that modules should no longer be imported
from Globals but instead from their primary location.


I am very happy about stable packages because I often extend them.

For example, I have extended LocalFS to allow configuration of
its instances via environment variables. This allows us to synchronize
our ZODBs in the test and development environments with the production
environment (helpful to perform tests and resolve issues) even though
the file system layout is different.

Fewer updates means fewer merging in of our extensions -- with the
corresponding work and testing.


Of course, you are free to apply different quality criteria

Re: [Zope] How to add existing folder in Zope

2009-03-29 Thread Tim Nash
Once upon a time there was a man walking down the street. He came upon two
neighbors in their driveways. One guy was washing his Z-Honda and the other
guy was working on his Z-MG-midget. The pedestrian said Hey, I'm thinking
of getting a car to carry groceries home from the market The Z-Honda guy
said, Why don't you get one of these Z-Honda's they do the job and they are
easy to own


The Z-MG guy was a mechanic and he liked working on his Z-MG. he said That
Honda guy is insane, you should get a Z-MG. It is much better than a big
Z-Honda


The Z-Honda guy said  I used to like working on Z-MGs but now I just drive
a Z-Honda. I rarely need to take it to the mechanic


Then another neighbor came out the door. He was also a mechanic. In fact he
worked at the z-car factory. Hey he said, don't listen to that Honda guy,
he doesn't know anything


Now all along, the Honda guy was wondering what the heck was going on down
out the z-car factory. You see the z-car factory has been producing many new
models of z-cars but they haven't included many interesting new features. In
fact the factory has been taking features out of the z-cars. The factory
claims that we all have to make adjustments so that we can have z cars made
out of some fantastic new material called 'z-components'. The factory has
been promising wonderful things will be coming from this new way of making z
cars. The cars will be more like this fantastic new z-car called a 'z3'
series. But the Honda guy hasn't seen any of these z3 cars around town. It
seems nobody is buying them and they have been manufactured for many, many
years. Furthermore, the Honda guy took a z3-car for a test drive one time
and it looked like a research project. Everything required special
configuration and the interface looked weird. What is worse they took out
dtml which was one of the Honda guys favorite features. Zclasses and TTW
editing were also gone. The Honda guy saw a lot of stuff missing from the z3
but he still wanted to believe the factory was right about z-components. He
still appreciated the factories efforts, but many years went by and nobody
outside of the factory became excited about the z3 line.  So why are they
taking us in a direction that nobody seems to want to go the Honda guy
thought. and with every new release, things are shuffled around. The only
people who can tell what will work are the mechanics who work on z-cars
everyday


Just then another neighbor , also a mechanic, came out the door and shouted
 The honda guy is lazy. Don't listen to him


Eventually along came sheriff D in his patrol car. Now everybody knew that
sheriff D was the brightest guy in town and if the z-car factory every does
perfect their z-component manufacturing, the sheriff will be able to turn
z-cars into whatever he wants to. What is going on here the sheriff said,
these guys are good mechanics. Their cars are wonderful. Why I once took
one of these guys old cars and I converted it into a jet. Nobody doubted
it. The sheriff had the skills.  There is no problem with these z-cars he
said.


The Honda guy just sighed. Well he waved his hand at his mechanic
neighbors. I'm not crazy about the way these guys express their opinions
but they have valid points of view. Me, I like my Honda, and if you go down
to the market you will see a lot more Z-Hondas than Z-MGs


And with that he turned and went in his house.

I get your point, I just don't agree with it. It is often easier to just
install plone than it is to:
1. search and discover LocalFS
2. decide if it is too old or if it can be satisfactorily patched.
3. patch it (thank you Robert)
4. test, test and test it.
5. Hope that it still works in the next version of zope that comes out.
6. plan to test, test and test it in the next version of zope. And the next,
and on and on.

Or you can install plone and know that it has been well tested, it is well
maintained and has a large community. One click and you are done. The next
version of plone will also be well tested.

Look, you can do it anyway you want but if you want to imply that my

No your response and Jens response are totally inappropriate. We will never
rebuild this community if all our posts are greeted with personal attacks.
Using plone for the said usecase is not inappropriate especially since using
a directory view does not require using all of plone.

Please keep your arguments reasonable and focused on the technology or the
management of that technology.

 It basically about looking left and right and choosing the right tool

 It's like driving with a tank to the supermarket around the corner for

OK.

LocalFS works. It's small. It does the task that was asked for. There
are various patches around that increase its performance to close to that 
of serving static content directly out of Apache.

Serving from Apache works. It's external to Zope. It does the task that
was asked for, but, can't be managed from inside Zope or it requires the
Zope install to share a filesystem with Apache (to manage from zope).

Plone works. It's huge. It's complicated. It does 1000x more things than 
was asked for and is not a solution that should be recommended to simply 
serve files from the file system.

Get a grip. You might want to install plone to do it, but, 99 times out
of 100 that isn't the correct solution to recommend to *anyone* that
just wants to serve files from the file system.

Andrew,  If you are going to ignore my arguments about Plone being well

Re: [Zope] How to add existing folder in Zope

Or you may be able to use CMF  'Filesystem directory view'. The easiest way
to do that is to use Plone 3.

I support the extjs javascript library two ways. In Plone I put the whole
extjs directory into a filesystem directory view. In Zope I drop extjs into
a directory served by apache.

If you have a web server before Zope (recommended for production use),
then you can let the static library be directly delivered from the
web server. This is usually far more efficient than delivery by
Zope (about an order of magnitude).
