It might be nice to have zc.resourcelibrary be able to somehow serve z3c.zrtresource files too...it doesn't right now. FWIW, right now in lieu of zrtresource I just use <script ... tal:content="string: /* ... JS that specifies dynamic variables and calls ... */ "></script>. Simple, and encourages delineation between library and usage; but a bit hacky, and unfriendly to designers.
I do a lot inline in my Python code, using our nevow.Stan inspired tag generation system and little bits and pieces I threw together to ease in generating short bits of JS from within Python. In particular, marshalling of basic Python structures to Javascript using a modified `jsonencode` module from the `simplejson` package. Among other things, it lets me use normal Python dictionaries, strings, lists, numbers, etc, for use in generating code. `jsonencode` ensures that everything is escaped properly. It gets to be handy to build on, especially when wanting to generate a Javascript call and supply it with a big list of generated dictionaries.
Other JS-related bits to know about (you'll have to do your own reading sometime :-): http://zif.hill-street.net/headincludes (WSGI variation on resourcelibrary), http://zif.hill-street.net/gzipper/ (WSGI, gzips all output for smaller browser page sizes), http:// zif.hill-street.net/jsmin/ (WSGI, compresses JS for smaller browser page sizes), and http://svn.zope.org/z3c.javascript/ (resourcelibrary- aware collection of mochikit, dojo, et al).
Ah, the real reason for my response here: how does one use third party WSGI "Middleware" with Zope? Alternately, does anyone have any experience running Zope in another WSGI supporting server? There are quite a few things out there in WSGI land that I'm interested in, but I've never quite understood how they work together on their own and/or with big systems like Zope. By the way - I've had some issues with the dependency tracking in zc.resourcelibrary. Is there a tracker where I can post said issues?
