Use the WebDav source port option to z2.py.(-w) during Zope startup. Then visit the port you specfy via DAV. The result will be the source instead of the rendered version. This is a hack but it makes things work. ;-) Patrick Collins wrote:
Mathieu, I may get into an argument with the Zope authors on this one, but in my opinion, they haven't implemented the <link> in the way most clients would expect.
From my reading of RFC2518, in order to edit "index_html" (in your example) the client (cadaver) should be able to GET AND PUT "index_html/document_src".
It doesn't make sense to me that you'd read from "index_html/document_src" and then write back to "index_html". This is because index_html MAY actually be generated by multiple source files.
The example in RFC2518 in section 13.10.1 seems to behave the way you, Mathieu, would prefer it to work.
The spec states: "The source of the link (src) is typically the URI of the output resource on which the link is defined, and there is typically only one destination (dst) of the link, which is the URI where the unprocessed source of the resource may be accessed."
I've tried to send this email to the appropriate Zope mailing lists but not sure if I got the right ones.
I'f I'm wrong, I'd be happy for someone to explain it to me because I will have to implement this into PerlDAV's "dave" command-line client as well and would rather do it right once.

Hi,
I'm trying to use Cadaver with Zope (www.zope.org), and the connection goes well and I can download page and post new one.
However, if I use the straight "edit" command, the page I get to edit is not the source code, but rather the generated html.
Zope allows one to get the source document, by getting "index_html/document_src" instead of just "index_html".
Problem is, if I say "edit index_html/document_src", it saves it to that location as well and Zope promptly ignores it (it wants it to be saved to "index_html").
I know I would have to modify the cadaver code to make this work, but what is the best way?
- Have a cadaver options that says: if you want to edit file x, actually download file x/document_src (or some other extensions for other type of server)
- Have cadaver look at the "source" property. Here is a typical zope property set: dav:/zope/QuickStart/> propget index_html Fetching properties for `index_html': (reconnecting...done) creationdate = 1970-01-01T12:00:00Z displayname = index_html resourcetype = getcontenttype = text/html getcontentlength = 1558 source = <link> <src>/zope/QuickStart/index_html</src> <dst>/zope/QuickStart/index_html/document_src</dst> </link>
supportedlock = <lockentry> <lockscope><exclusive></exclusive></lockscope> <locktype><write></write></locktype> </lockentry>

Any suggestion?
