I am very newbee to Zope. In my Zope application I want to integrate UserTrack product (we dont use plone). I placed the UserTrack folder inside the Products directory, and created an instance of UserTrack inside some of the other zope products, as follows:
u = UserTrack() logger(str(u.listUserActivities()))
But the list is coming as empty. I think the place where I have initialised the UserTrack instance is wrong.
In the Readme file which comes along with UserTrack says that, UserTrack lists the currently active authenticated users that are logged into zope and accesses an object below the folder where the UserTrack instance resides. So I guess I need to write initialize in some of the ZMI folder object, but which one?. Can anyone please help me.
I do not know "UserTrack" and how it works. However, the README tells you, that "UserTrack" must reside in a folder. This means that it must be integrated into the Zope site hierarchy. Usually, you put objects into a folder in the ZMI via the so called "add list". This is the selection field to the left of the "Add" button in the "Contents" tab of folder like objects. You can also do this programmatically. The idiom is destination.manage_addProduct[<defining_product>].<constructor>(<args>) Here "<defining_product>" is the product that defines the new object's class, "<constructor>" is the function that create the object and "<args>" are the arguments the constructor needs (usually the id of the object to be created, optionally a title). An example would be: destination.manage_addProduct['OFSP'].manage_addFile(id, content) -- Dieter
