FYI: Latest gem appears in CVS
by Paul Everitt 22 May '00

22 May '00

Howdy folks. As mentioned previously, a gem is ready to appear in CVS: mountable databases. What are these? I'll answer with a question. Ever want to have your data segregated into multiple Data.fs files? Ever want to have some of your object data in the regular FileStorage, some in a Berkeley storage for no undo, some in some mythical forthcoming RelationalStorage, etc.? Or perhaps you want to segregate your data for other reasons. This is mountable databases, and it's running on Zope.org right now. We're doing it to have Wikis that don't get pack, to let us see historical information. If you want to send thanks, send them to Jim Fulton and Shane Hathaway. But how would we see the historical information, since Zope doesn't do CVS-like things? Those of you on zope-checkins might have seen this today: """ Message: 4 Date: Sat, 20 May 2000 12:07:08 -0400 From: Jim Fulton <jim(a)digicool.com> To: zope-checkins(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope-Checkins] CVS: Zope2 - History.py:1.1 history.dtml:1.1 historyCompare.dtml:1.1 ndiff.py:1.1 DTMLMethod.py:1.45 Update of /cvs-repository/Zope2/lib/python/OFS In directory korak.digicool.com:/projects/users/jim/Historical/lib/python/OFS Modified Files: DTMLMethod.py Added Files: History.py history.dtml historyCompare.dtml ndiff.py Log Message: Added the ability to browse, compare, and revert to historical revisions for DTML methods and documents """ Sure enough, I updated my CVS and saw a "History" tab. Fun stuff, and something that's been a long, long time request from the community. Jim did this in his spare time, so he gets 100% of the credit. --Paul

Re: [Zope] Zclass inheritence
by Chris McDonough 22 May '00

OK, I've found that this may be a bug. You can't subclass ZClasses across products. Sorry. I have no "esimated time to resolution" for this either. For now, you should be able to create a subclass of STX_Document inside the product to which it belongs and work from there.

>I need to upload a batch of files into the zope database, what would be the >best way???? >thanks :) What about ftp? Zope comes with a built-in ftp server. Point your favorite ftp client to your server. Don't forget to set the right port - see <zopehome>/z2.py for this. Enter your username/password and you're set. >Have a great day!!! Same to you ! Rik

There is no way to select a Z Class that is a child of another Z Class in the subobject list. Should I be able to do that? Seems to that this was never possible. All I can select is test_product, but that isn't what I want. Got a clue? Is it a bug or functionality that just isn't supposed to be there? Did you try it at your installation? With the same result?

Accessing the tutorial gives me a keyboard error and url not found error. Cookies are turned on as indicated in the list archive as a possible source for errors. The examples are all installed with the product and appear in the management screen. No idea what Im doing wrong. Any insights would be appreciated. My apologies for such nubie questions in advance.

(I use NT) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Here's your problem.... I could say RTFM but I won't... ;-) You need to have ZWiki 0.6 or later installed as well as ZWikiWeb: http://www.zope.org/Members/chrisw/ZWikiWeb/install cheers, Chris PS: ZWiki and ZWikiWeb are two totally seperate products... Simon Michael deserves all the credit for ZWiki, I just wrapped it up a bit...
