I don't like the proposal and the direction where you are
Going, but this is another part.

But I'm fine with this changes as long as the browser:page
directive doesn't change in any way.

Yes, I think it's very important to bring a little stability to the 
Zope3 framework rather then change every release such fundamental

The idea of a namspace called browser is the following:

We use the namespace browser for *presentations* (the earlier 
name for pages) which depends on the IBrowserRequest.
This is also reflected in the package structure like:

package
  browser

For other request types like FTPRequest, XMLRPC or JSON 
etc we use:

package
  ftp
  xmlrpc
  json

Perhaps this is to technical and will confuse people which don't
know the base concepts of request type interfaces. But since no
tehchnical peple have no chance to develope with z3 I think
this naming is OK.

All of this directive are based on the IBrowserRequest.
Other requests like FTPRequest don't have a menu layer etc.

The exception zope:view doesn't use a implicit request this
is the reason why the zope:view is also existent next to 
the browser:view. This means the zope:view directive can be 
used together with a different request then IBrowserRequest.

More or less all of this is a adapter called on a 
context and request providing a interface and a optional 
name producing a response ;-) Remember page is a replacement
for the earlier name *presentation" which was a little bit 
a to long naming.

> Create a new clean namespace and call it user_interface (or ui)! :)

I think a name like ui doesn't reflect the request type and will
be a bad idea for register *presentations* for json which are registred
like  right now. 

But if you like to use  etc, you can do this by simply 
setting the namspace to:

xmlns:ui="http://namespaces.zope.org/browser";

And then use 

btw, I whould like to use only one directive called 
*zope* for all directives. The directive *browser*
is not really needed except for let us use 
zope:view and browser:view ;-)

I think it's pretty clear right now. Do you really think if 
soembody don't understand what a folder json or browser should
contain he ever will be able to understand what he has to do 
in ZCML? (I guess this is really not a naming problem)

Do yo have a simpler naming and/or module/package structure 
concept in mind? If so, is this not only a part of a project or 
application like a CMS etc? Do you think UI Developers should 
work out of the box with a Zope3 instance?

A browser request offers a API for collecting browser (client) 
releated informations like charset settings. This is done via the
interface IUserPreferredCharsets.

A browser request also deals with form data and collects 
the given form input into a FieldStorage object. The most important
part here is that a browser request knows how to handle file upload.

The browser request is based on the http request which does the base
stuff like cookie handling etc.

I see, I personaly like macros, but it is true, sometimes
it is very hard to fit the pices to a big picture.

Perhaps it whould help if we have another directive ;-)
called  which whould handle the macro
registration rather then use . This whould
let us use some concept of a explicit *philiKON* factory for
macro registrations which makes the standard_macros mapping a 
little more transparent. What I really dislike on the browser:page
registration for macros, is, that such macros are also callable as 
traversable views rigth now. I whould like to see a different lookup
for macros in the future. This could look like:

Macro lookup right now:



what I like to see is something like:



Such a macro could be lookuped by a ITALESExpression 
called *macro* similar to the IContentProvider implementation.

The *StandardMacros* could be a mapping registred as a python 
factory. The *StandardMacros/page* knows how to lookup a
registred macro called *page* in the *StandardMacros*.

See also my (a little old) proposal at:
http://www.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ComponentArchitecture/SimplifyMac
roRegistration

Note: the proposal is a little bit old and I whould
change the directive browser:macros and make explicit use of
a python factory rather then use a implicit mixin class.

What do you think Philipp?

There is a adapter providing the interface IUserPreferredLanguages
which can be used on requests. This adapter reads the request value
*HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE* in the method *getPreferredLanguages*.

The adapter is registred for the IHTTPRequest.

That's a difference. Jim's *adapter* refactoring will bring us 
a speed up and solves some problems in the adapter registry
implementation. (lookup multiadapter by it's registration tuple).

Your proposal is just a *cosmetic* change which forces us to
change existing projects and like Florent says: We have to 
write additional python classes for just that. I don't buy this 
as really usefull. 

> Sorry, I just don't buy it. We're still refactoring some key

Yes, 
Why the hell do I have to write additional python classes for 
each page registration after your refactoring?

I don't by this as a improvment. 

If we do this, I can add the browser:page directive back as 
a high level directive and then the need for write additional
python classes is just a YAGNY like before. Is this really a 
improvment?

Another problem is, that we have mor then 6 projects build
with zope3 up and running. Such a improvment is not nice
and will force us to change more then ~300 existing page 
registrations. 
It's a horror to think about how many python class we have 
to write if we do this simplification!!!

You totaly ignore that Zope3 is not a experimental framework 
now and stability is also a criteria which should recognized.

Please recognize that some people have built applications
with zope3 since more then 2 years now. And respect that
they are not willing to just change everything wich forces 
them to go other ways then before without a real *improvment*.

btw, I don't dislike the refactoring at all, but I just dislike
that we have to update our projects for *this* simplification.
We have at least to provide both way of registration.
Perhaps it's really time to add a higher level directive pool
for such refactorings. Is this a option for you?

I don't think so.
ITALESExpression are built for this use case.

My context doesn't need to have a ++macro++ namespace!
My context doesn't know about macros and viewlets. Macros or viewlets
depend on context and request. This is the reason why we implemented a 
lookup via tales expression and not a traversal namespace on our context.

I see,

and find a way to implement a simpler/explicit macro handling.

[Zope3-dev] Formlib error handling

2006-04-22 Thread dev
The formlib.EditForm dosen't catch all errors form widgets.

The following method catches only InputError:

def getWidgetsData(widgets, form_prefix, data):
errors = []
form_prefix += '.'

for input, widget in widgets.__iter_input_and_widget__():
if input and IInputWidget.providedBy(widget):
name = _widgetKey(widget, form_prefix)

if not widget.hasInput():
raise interfaces.FormError("No input", name)

try:
data[name] = widget.getInputValue()
except InputErrors, error:
errors.append(error)

return errors

How can I enhance the error handling for 
WrongContainedType or NotUnique which are ValueErrors?

Do I miss something or is it correct to improve the 
validation in this method. Or is there in general a mess
in the widget implementation and it's error handling.

Hm, is it correct how the sequence widget handles errors
in the getInputValue method?

e.g.
def getInputValue(self):
"""Return converted and validated widget data.

If there is no user input and the field is required, then a
``MissingInputError`` will be raised.

If there is no user input and the field is not required, then
the field default value will be returned.

A ``WidgetInputError`` is raised in the case of one or more
errors encountered, inputting, converting, or validating the data.
"""
if self.hasInput():
self.preserve_widgets = True
sequence = self._type(self._generateSequence())
if sequence != self.context.missing_value:
self.context.validate(sequence)
elif self.context.required:
raise MissingInputError(self.context.__name__,
self.context.title)
return sequence
raise MissingInputError(self.context.__name__, self.context.title)


and dosen't convert errors raised in 
*self.context.validate(sequence)* to a ValidationError (InputErrors) ?

The namespace ++view++ is in the first line a namespace
which makes it possible to use the same naming for ojects
and views on a container. Second this is callable
via the @@ in page templates. The implementation that
we didn't use a tales expression is bad.

It doesn't make sense to me that we can automaticly use
traversal namespace in tales. I think the API for implement
additional functionality is the ITALESExpression interface.
Every other implementation which makes something possible in 
TAL is bad. That's just what I think.

Yes, I know, but where doe we describe the interface for that?
Is there a interface somewhere that I can see why I can call
traversal namespace from TAL? Perhaps I missed this till now.

How do you explain the TAL implementation of a @@ lookup 
to someone?

Write a own factory like:

class DocTypeContainerVocabulary(ContainerVocabulary):

  def __init__(self):
super(DocTypeContainerVocabulary, self).__init__()
self.containerName = 'doctype'



and also you have to *patch* your class with :

classProvides(DocTypeContainerVocabulary, IVocabularyFactory)



then use the factory like:




It's simple isn't it?

the *good* thing is if you use this vocabulary for 
twenty vocabularies, you have to do this for each 
of them. This is realy ugly, but simple.

I solve the problem and added some bugfix, see the different 
commit messages below.

I think the error handling is pretty Ok in the formlib now.
Feel free to ask if somthing is unclear. I'm pretty sure
that we very extensivly used the formlib in our project.
Most improvments depend on useing the formlib with subforms
where we setup in the update method.
Some implementation use also the zc.table implementation.

What I like to implement, is a generic "sub form setup"
method which should make it easier to setup sub-forms.

Log message for revision 68157:
  - Improve error handling in formlib:
Fix invariant error handling in formlib. The exception Invalid raised 
in interface invariants where end in a component lookup error because
this exception didn't get converted to a usefull error message.
Now the error_views method in formlib can handle strings and i18n 
Message based Invalid exceptions.
  - Added test for Invalid exceptions handling
  - Added also a small fix which makes sure that existing errors
from master/subforms don't get overriden by calling update in 
FormBase.
  - Added note in Changes.txt

No, that's a good idea. btw, I can also live without the

No, this was a existing part. I agree, we sould move this part to

Ok, sorry that wasn't the target of the word *patching*. 
But sure I'm not really happy with the additional python

monky patch pattern if use classProvides outside of the

I don't agree if I understand this correct.
We have attributes or methods which we access from a 
page template via TAL. right?

I don't think we can speak about implicit or explicit.
The problem is, that we have one accessor method and two 
different accessible implementations. If I access a foo() 
method from TAL it is not implicit if I don't call them,
it's more a wrong concept for accessing a method.

I whould preferre if both use case get handled by default 
correct, doesn't matter if I access a attribute or a method.

Why not use the proposed PEP3000? And also additional nocall:
and call: accessor in a page template. This means existing
implementation will not break and everybody how likes to
use explicit accessors like call: or nocall: can use it 
explicit. I think this whould make everybody happy. Or not?

I think the nocall: method in TAL is only useful if we
like to get a function pointer where we call different 
times in the template. Or did I miss something?

Are there really usecases where something can go wrong
if we use the proposed PEP?

I guess we have to think about this concept another time.
Perhaps it make sense to add a setRenderedValue concept
to the formlib. This well know field method could also make 
sense at a form level and offer a post process hook for set
values on initialized widgets. This could be useful for 
convert form.request values before they get collected by
the field getInputValue method.

Could be useful but we can't have it in the Zope3 core

I guess you mean view "methodOne" and not attribute

Try this:

/++skin++B/path/to/obj/@@methodOne

probably it's not a good idea becaues you need to apply the
skin after the site root.

I think it's not a good Idea to call views from a different
skin in another skin. Or are you looking for a skin switcher?
There is a method called applySkin which will switch a skin

If you really need to do this, you can switch the skin call 
the method and switch the skin back in a python method registred 
as a view.

I recommend to register the two different methods under 
different names if you don't use a "skin switcher".

If you take a closer look at this package and you will see that each 
subpackage is well documented. The generic package collection
is/was developed/mentained by Dominik. The zope.generic sub-package are very

well layered and have clear dependency that's the reason why they
are containd in a collection package. I'm not fimilar with the
state of the 'generic' project right now. But it's a really 
cool concept.

The z3c top level package is a namespace for additional packages
where I and Bernd started to use at the SwissEasterSprint. 
We like to provide usefull implementations there, which are 
useable for Zope3. The packages in the z3c namespace should 
follow the ZSCP proposal that's the reason why we started to 
use the zope repository.

Please take also a closer look at the ZSCP concept
where we implemented based on Stephans work at the sprint
http://svn.zope.org/zf.zscp/

btw, this application is ready to use, perhaps it needs some
adapter refactoring migration work.

Not started, just make progress in what allready started with 
Stephans proposal and the ZSCP implementation ;-)

Yes, I agree
Perhaps you can check the proposal and see what we did in
http://svn.zope.org/zf.zscp/. I guess there is more to implement

I really hope that we adapt the prosess described in Stephans
ZSCP proposal.

http://svn.zope.org/zf.zscp/trunk/src/zf/zscp/ProcessAndRepository.txt?rev=6
6671&view=markup

Whould be cool if we could make progress on what Stephan started
with the proposal and your ideas.

RE: [Zope3-dev] What are zope.generic, z3c, ldapauth, et.al.?

2006-07-06 Thread dev
Hi Philipp, Dominik

Dominik, can you give a short overview what zope.generic
can do?

Yes, that's true, but if you install only one package from 
the 'zope.generic' collection you need to have that README.txt
in this package and not more then that.

I'm not sure if that is also right for the generic package.
The generic package is ONE concept which is implemented in 
different reusable sub-packages which also can be used 
as single packages for just one aspect of the generic concept.

I think Dominik can explain the generic pattern. All I can say this
quickly, you can define new instances only based on schemas without
a class implementation. It's a kind of ZClasses, Archetypes in a 
clean Zope3 like implementation. Generic means you can define generic
components which are initializable and configurable during the 
runtime. There is also a pattern for enhance such a generic instances
via plugins. All I can say, it's generic ;-)

no problem, I agree to have a place for such infos.
The README.txt files are not good enough for give a overview
because you have to checkout first or browse the really slow
repos with a browser.

Tell me where is somewhere and I can write something ;-)

I think the proposal from Stephan should catch all your questions. 
If not feel free to define and propose them. I agree with have a 
more clear process for all you are asking.
