RE: [Zope3-Users] question: can I make a view trusted?
Ah, Here's something to note: When I print out the schema objects just before attempting to access their titles, I get: --- 2006-02-16T23:20:35 ERROR SiteError... --- In other words, I have no problem accessing the fields of the schema objects that are defined in _bootstrapfields, but I get an error when I access Date, which lives in _field! I defer to those who know more, but whether I'm supposed to be allowed to access the title or not, the current behavior seems like a bug, as it is inconsistent. - Shaun Cutts ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users
[Zope3-Users] question: can I make a view trusted?
I'd be grateful for an answer to the following: I have a container class that displays rows from a database. I have a default view for those containers that I want to have display a table of rows with column headers being the titles of the fields in the interface supported by the contained objects support. My container has a class variable "containedInterface" which can be specialized to subclasses to specify the interface to the rows of the contained object. In the view, I have the following code to get the column names: def getColumnNames( self ): def getNameForField( pair ): fname, fld = pair if IField.providedBy( fld ): return fld.title else: return unicode( fname ) return map( getNameForField, self.context.containedInterface.namesAndDescriptions( all = True ) ) The problem is that "fld.title" access gives me a ForbiddenAttribute error when I access the schema.Date object (as it happens). It would seem nonsensical to declare permissions on IDate in order to do this. I guess I could add an accessor to either the container or the contained object that did the dirty work, and then passed the result to the view, and declare that accessible(?). But from a design point of view, neither the container nor the contained object should be concerned with how they are displayed. That's the whole point of views, right? So I think its better not to clutter up their definitions with extra accessors. (? Again) Thus as far as I can tell, given some dubious assumptions perhaps, the only way to do this is if I somehow made the view trusted (or at least this function), so it wouldn't have to worry about the security restrictions. Is this possible? Is it a good idea? Thanks very much, - Shaun Cutts PS... perhaps I could declare the "containedInterface" itself to be content? I'm going to try fiddling around with that, but I'm sending this message anyway, because even if that works, it seems too strange to be the right solution, and surely this is a common problem. ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users

[Zope3-Users] Recipe with default values
In chapter 5.4 of the cooking book, Philipp says: [...] We could now implement a custom factory, for example one that allows us to set initial attribute values of the recipe. (We would normally extend the Recipe class with a constructor to do that, but let us implement a factory here for demonstration purposes.) How should I write the constructor? I've tried the naive __init__ method but I must be missing something, as it doesn't get passed any argument. For instance, I'd like to have an attribute recipe.creation_date which is editable in the addform but has datetime.datetime.now() as a default value. Of course if I simply add creation_date=datetime.datetime.now() in the class definition, it gets the time once at the start. thanks for the help, the shiny release, the book and the appetizers. i'm getting hungry :-) ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users
Re: [Zope3-Users] Squid/Apache Caching
If you have needs for Apache, use Apache - but there is no need for it just for rewriting urls. There are plenty of ways to rewrite in Squid - and you can always write your own. See http://www.squid-cache.org/related-software.html for a list of redirectors that are available out there. Having used Squid heavily over the years, there is no need for added complexity of adding Apache in the mix unless there is something specifically you need from it. >From your description, Apache is YAGNI.

No it doesn't. default=1 generates this error:

I don't really need Int as list items but some more complex objects.
This works quite well - except of the missing default.

[Zope3-Users] How to get started?
Dear Zope 3 users and developers I have been using Zope 2 in the past and was very enthusiastic about the Zope 3.0 release some time ago. Therefore, I bought both books by Stephan and Philipp. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to actually start developing. But now, a colleague of mine does have time and interest to get started with a Web interface to our Spyse system (http://spyse.sf.net/). BUT I read on this list that the books that cover Zope 3.0 are outdated for the current 3.2 release. How should one get started now? Use the books with 3.0 and try to upgrade later? Try to figure out what changed while learning from the books? Where is up to date easily readable information about the changes and their impact on "old" code and the books? Will we see updated and documented sample code soon? thanks for your help André ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users
