RE: [Zope-dev] Documentation Tool Requirements
by Michel Pelletier 19 Aug '99

I think XML format for all docs is a requirement (up to debate). This way Zope can be used to manage the content using XML Documents, and the passive data can be 'activated' very easily. Also, our current Docs are written in framemaker, which (with the $2K addon) will output SGML and XML. -Michel > -----Original Message----- > From: Stephan Richter [mailto:SRichter@ixl.com] > Sent: Thursday, August 19, 1999 12:14 PM > To: zope(a)zope.org; zope-dev(a)zope.org > Subject: [Zope-dev] Documentation Tool Requirements > > > hey Zopesters, > > I originally posted this message to the ZDP list, but I > thought some of you > guys may have some great input too. > > So, here you go.

Documentation Tool Requirements
by Stephan Richter 19 Aug '99

19 Aug '99

hey Zopesters, I originally posted this message to the ZDP list, but I thought some of you guys may have some great input too. So, here you go. What I am looking for are requirements like features, usability, workflow, user levels and many other things that you would like to see in the new FAQ, Tutorials, How-To's and Reference Manual. The first two main tools will be FAQ and the Reference Manual. These will be implemented first. Here is the format (XML) you should send the requirements in: <category title="title"> <abstract> Structured Text describing the category (not neccessary if the category already exists. </abstract> <entries> <entry title="title of entry"> <status>Requirement captured</status> <rating>1-10</rating> <name>Your name</name> <abstract> Please describe your requirement in structured text. I did not write renders for html tags. </abstract> </entry> </entries> </category> The responses I got so far you can see at: http://www.zope.org:18200/Members/srichter PLEASE DO NOT SEND RESPONSES TO THE ENTIRE LIST SO WE DO NOT FILL UP MAILBOXES. I will post the results every night. Please do not reply with requirements on the mailing list in normal text format, since it will take me forever to extract them and put them into the proper format. Let's see how strong the community can be. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR INPUT. regards, stephan -- Stephan Richter iXL - Software Designer and Engineer

Also, did any of the ZClasses you are copying get >imported into your site from an earlier Zope version? Thanks for the hints... Keep in mind that I have been able to copy and paste to this ZClass through the management interface... I just performed four tests... 1) Run the candp method with the destination being a normal Folder. This worked. 2) Run the candp method with the destination being a new ZClass with base classes of CatalogAware and Object Manager. This worked also. 3) Try to copy the image into a ZClass that exists above the real target ZClass in the hierarchy (I have ZClasses nested a few levels deep). This worked... 4) Create a ZClass contained within the ZClass from test 2 (also with bases of CatalogAware and ObjectManager). When I try to create an instance of this class, I get (right after clicking the Add button): Sorry, the requested Zope resource does not exist.<p>Check the URL and try again.<p>  Traceback (innermost last): File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 209, in publish_module File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 179, in publish File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 199, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 151, in publish File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\ZPublisher\BaseRequest.py, line 422, in traverse File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\AccessControl\User.py, line 373, in validate (Object: RoleManager) File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\ZPublisher\HTTPResponse.py, line 510, in notFoundError NotFound: (see above) The permissions seem to be fine... (there is an Add Foo2s permission, the factory has that permission selected... I've selected the Add Foo1s and Add Foo2s permissions for each of the permissions in the Define Permissions tab of both ZClasses and I've tried this as both a Manager and the superuser). I could swear I was able to do this in the last beta... I will say this: the ZClass that I am trying to copy an image into is KMArticle from KM|Net News. I *think* this class did originate in the last beta. That was why I wanted to try a fresh class, and ran into the problem above. Here is the original DTML method that I'm getting the error in:  <dtml-with oldart> <dtml-with 1999> <dtml-in "objectIds(['Folder'])"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('month', _['sequence-item'])"> <dtml-with "_[_['sequence-item']]"> <dtml-in "objectIds(['Folder'])"> <dtml-with "_[_['sequence-item']]"> <p> <dtml-var title> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('id', id)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('title', title)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('email', email)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('author', author)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('teaser', summary)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('text_content', text)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('createtime', createtime)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('release', release)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('current', 'on')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('top', 'off')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('category', category)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('importance', importance)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('score', 2000000000-score)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('points', points)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('votes', votes)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('topimg', topimg)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('fobj', this())"> <dtml-with art> <dtml-with 1999> <dtml-with "_[month]"> <dtml-call "KMArticle_add(_.None, _, NoRedir=1)"> <dtml-with "_[REQUEST['id']]"> <dtml-call "candp(fobj, this(), REQUEST)"> </dtml-with> </dtml-with> </dtml-with> </dtml-with> </p> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> </dtml-with> </dtml-in> </dtml-with> </dtml-with>  There are two things that I'm wondering about: 1) I'm getting to the "art" ZClass through acquisition from several levels deep. Could this cause a problem? 2) Would there be any problem pasting to an object that is created during the same transaction? Sorry for the deluge of info, but I thought I might be able to save you from having to ask for each additional step... Let me know if there is more than I can do to test and clarify. Thanks! Kevin

That looks strange indeed. To take a guess, it looks like the paste is failing on a ZClass instance. A way to test this would be to try your copying external method on two plain folders that contain only "builtin" objects like files or images. If the method works in that case, then I suspect something funny about one of your ZClasses. In particular, make sure that all of them list either ZObject or ZObjectManager in their list of base classes. Also, did any of the ZClasses you are copying get imported into your site from an earlier Zope version? Thanks!

Re: [Zope-dev] the right way to do wiki in zope ?

Anthony, thanks for your comments. > Yup, first call it ZikiSpace ;) Could do, could do.. :) I'm fond of the word "wiki" though. > This can be done with a Zclass subclassing DTML Doc. Then, have a > ZikiSpace folder object which has only one subobject: ZikiBit. Correct me if I'm misunderstanding - do you mean the folder can contain multiple ZikiBits - subclasses of DTML Doc - each one of which is a wiki page ? Is it better to build a simplified ziki_edit mechanism or should we leverage zope's existing manage_* methods, I wonder. Time for me to get friendly with zclasses!

Why is it that whenever I access a zope web page with a multimedia attachment that everything crashes. Does anybody understand this.

Whose gonna > take a stab at it? I'm poking at it. I'll continue, though anyone should feel free to jump in and code it up. I'm not yet clear on the right way to do this. To begin, I imagine a bunch of DTML/structuredtext pages in a zope folder. The page render method would convert each WikiStyleHyperLink to either a navigation or page creation link, depending on whether that page exists. I've been considering: 1. add new ZWiki Document & Method classes - ideally these are like Formatted Document with WikiHyperlinks added. 2. add some wiki-enabled formats to the Formatted Document class - structured text + wiki, HTML + wiki, ascii + wiki But it's probably 3. something much more elegant using the new (to me) class features Comments, suggestions ?
