Re: [Zope3-Users] Re: ZODB - ways of storages?
Andreas Elvers wrote: Personally I don't like to store big files (pictures and the like) in ZODB. Zope provides you the functionality to store this data outside of ZODB (somewhere on the harddrive). Although commonly a reference still exists in ZODB in form of a content object. This content object has the knowledge to access the stored data. Be careful here, getting transactional semantics right with files _not_ in ZODB is hard and not something many people get right... cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users

[Zope3-Users] Creating objects in software space when making site
Hello, my content object depends on a number of utilities to be present. It is usually also used as a site. During development it happens often that I delete and recreate it. Can I install a hook or something so I can make that these utilies are being created when my objects becomes a site? How do I create utitlies in software space?

I've started to create a few components with Zope-3.2.
Until now, everything is OK for simple content components and a few
utilities.
I'm actually trying to develop new adapters.
One of these adapters is designed to use annotations, but I can't make
it working in Zope3 management interface : page link is displayed
correctly, in my editform properties provided by my interface are
displayed and modified apparently correctly, but introspector show
that these properties are stored as simple attributes and not as
annotations ; adapter's code is never called !
I've probably missed something, so here are the steps I followed :
- create custom interface = OK
- create adapter = apparently OK
- define adapter in main configure.zcml file = OK
- define editform in browser's configure.zcml = probably bad !
I've started to work a little more on this problem, and got a few
improvements but still a few problems. In fact :
- I can create my main content component correctly
- I can see the adapter's view form into ZMI
- I can select this view ; an empty annotations PersistentDict is
then immediately created as requested
- but I can't update adapter's interface's properties : the setData
method is called, but the properties methods are not called when
setData is called. No error is displayed, and the form just display
request values that are removed as soon as the view is refreshed...
My code is in fact very simple :
class IPhotoStorage:
identifier = TextLine(...)
hostname = TextLine(...)
PhotoStorageKey = http://www.ulthar.net/keys/storage;
class PhotoStorage:
implements(IPhotoStorage)
adapts(IPhoto)
def __init__ (self, context):
self.context = self.__parent__ = context
annotations = IAnnotations(context)
data = annotations.get(PhotoStorageKey)
if data is None:
data = annotations[PhotoStorageKey] = PersistentDict()
self._data = data
def _getIdentifier (self):
return self._data.get('identifier',None)
def _setIdentifier (self, identifier):
self._data['identifier'] = unicode(identifier)
notify(ObjectAnnotationsModifiedEvent(self.context))
identifier = property(_getIdentifier, _setIdentifier)
...then same code for hostname property...
class PhotoStorageHandler(object):
def getData(self):
result = {}
result['identifier'] = IPhotoStorage(self.context).identifier
result['hostname'] = IPhotoStorage(self.context).hostname
return result
def setData(self, data):
IPhotoStorage(self.context).identifier = data['identifier']
IPhotoStorage(self.context).hostname = data['hostname']
return uSaved changes
And here is my main configure.zcml part for the adapter :
adapter
factory=.photo.PhotoStorage
provides=.interfaces.IPhotoStorage
for=.interfaces.IGalleryPhoto
trusted=true /
class class=.photo.PhotoStorage
require
permission=zope.View
interface=.interfaces.IPhotoStorage /
require
permission=zope.ManageContent
set_schema=.interfaces.IPhotoStorage /
/class
and finally my browser configure.zcml :
form
name=storage.html
for=.interfaces.IGalleryPhoto
schema=.interfaces.IPhotoStorage
class=.forms.PhotoStorageHandler
fields=identifier hostname
label=Storage
permission=zope.ManageContent
menu=zmi_views title=Storage /
Of course, a good help would be really welcome...
Many thanks,

[Zope3-Users] Re: Zope 3 Developer's LiveBook
Hi all, here is a callout for input on creating a zope livebook. I have familiarized myself with docbook and am gung ho. I am fairly new to zope3, so I will not be much help with content. I will be good at trying out things and keeping the document up to date. I decided to go with darcs for now, we can move to svn if darcs doesn't work for most people. I have a repo at z3book.unstate.ca. You can do: darcs get http://z3book.unstate.ca; to get the book (but there's nothing there!). For now I am hoping to get suggestoins on how the book should be laid out. What about something like: preface Basic Usage Framework Overview Common Development Patterns Content Components I really have no clue. I was hoping that a zope3 guru could suggest how the parts could be best laid out. It seems to me that it is very tricky to have an encyclopedic resource for power users as well as easy to follow trails for newbies who are likely to get lost in the woods. I like the idea of trails (do the java tutorials still do this?). If a newbie wants to explore the forest that is zope 3, she will want to use the most well worn trails first and be confident to return home before it gets dark. Later, when she gets a sense of the lay of the land, she can venture deep on longer and less well-used tracks. I have followed a bit of the discussion regarding example apps. I really appreciated Benji York's Hello World app. It was easy to follow and left me feelling less overwhelmed than the Zope 3 Tutorial or the Zope 3 Book by Stephen Richter (I got lost and scared and have not gone back - though to be fair they are still the best on-line sources for more in depth zope 3 info). It also did a good job covering topics in just enough detail. I also appreciated that it was relatively up to date (Zope 3.2 apha?). Good examples could serve to as a guide to how to layout this book. Topics could be introduced gradually as the examples become more complicated. Also, topics could be covered in more detail as examples are shown which best demonstrate their use. Anyway, let me know what you think. For right now ideas on overall layout and a progression of example apps would be most appreciated. For those of you who have already authored tutorials, books, articles, tips, etc. It would be most excellent if you could offer them up (permission to use and alter, etc). Icing on the cake would be if you could suggest where in the zope 3 book you envision seeing your info. A cherry on top would be if you could update the information for the current release. Thanks and good night. Paul Dumais ___ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users

Hi,
I've finally applied the following changes to my interfaces and classes,
and now it works !
class IPhotoStorage:
identifier = TextLine(...)
def setIdentifier():
hostname = TextLine(...)
def setHostname():
class PhotoStorage:
implements(IPhotoStorage)
adapts(IPhoto)
def getIdentifier (self):
return self._data.get('identifier',None)
def setIdentifier (self, identifier):
self._data['identifier'] = unicode(identifier)
notify(ObjectModifiedEvent(self.context))
identifier = property(getIdentifier, setIdentifier)
class PhotoStorageHandler(object):
def getData(self):
result = {}
result['identifier'] = IPhotoStorage(self.context).identifier
result['hostname'] = IPhotoStorage(self.context).hostname
return result
def setData(self, data):
IPhotoStorage(self.context).setIdentifier(data['identifier'])
IPhotoStorage(self.context).setHostname(data['hostname'])
return uSaved changes
So the only real modification I've done is to add a setIdentifier
method to my interface, and to call this method instead of just setting
the property into my form handler...
Of course, this seems rather strange to me, as if the property setting
didn't work for the adapter (but worked for the setter !).
Of course, I'm not sure to understand everything... So any help,
confirmation, information or any other kind of explanation would
probably be very useful...
Thanks,
Thierry
