ANN: NewsCenter0.1.0
by Kapil Thangavelu 02 Sep '00

02 Sep '00

available @ http://www.zope.org/Members/k_vertigo/ZopeProducts/NewsCenter from the README <b>Current Status:</b> - I've realized that Zope sites tend to keep user info in a variety of formats, so rather than reduplicating that info within NewsCenter, I've implemented a hook get_syndicated_content(channel_ids, lastdate=None) which will retrieve all the items of a channel that are newer than lastdate. if lastdate is none it retrieves all items from the last 24 hrs. this hook can be used to build syndicated content in the form of user pages and emails. - NewsCenter supports aggregate channels in the ocs format. - NewsCenter support searching of channels. - NewsCenter supports channels in the RSS format version (0.9-1.0) - i've imported over 1965 channels using ocs files from http://www.xmltree.com/export/ocs.cfm and http://www.moreover.com/categories/ocs/ocsdirectory.rdf from the CHANGES file version 0.1.0 The Birthday Boy Release - THIS RELEASE IS NOT BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE - This release has been tested on zope 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 on linux if there are any problems running it on windows please let me know (kthangavelu(a)earthlink.net) - Channel.py has undergone massive changes - no longer uses XMLDocument, hence XMLDoc. is not required - implements syndicated content hook - supports all RSS versions (0.9-1.0) - no longer registered as a top level class - implements image tags of RSS (only for v.91+) - no longer causes ZCatalog to throw spurious errors on intial update() - renamed to remove references to rss - NewsCenter.py - ocs channels maybe added from filesystem. - returns elasped time on most actions of management view- channels tab. - implements syndicated content hook (see README for more info) - minor changes to management interface to support 1K+ channels - internal storage renamed to remove references to rss - The product is now released under one license the LGPL - total channel count i've gotten is up to 1965 (albeit with some duplication). Cheers, Kapil

How to access id and title of document calling standard_html_header
by Tim Hicks 02 Sep '00

02 Sep '00

For those of you who saw my posts from a couple of days ago (Dieter Maurer and Geir Bfkholt), this is the question that I think I should have been asking in the first place. I have a standard_html_header that is inserted into Zclasses. These Zclasses have properties including meta_author, meta_description etc (I don't think it is important what they are, just that they are properties that standard_html_header does not have). In the standard_html_header, I use code such as <dtml-var meta_author> and <dtml-var meta_description>. This works fine and the properties of the *zclass* are inserted. However, if I put <dtml-var id> into the standard_html_header, I get the id of standard_html_header, *not* of the zclass. How do I tell zope to which item I am refering (bearing in mind, I don't know the name of the zclass ie it is variable)? Cheers tim ps. As a workaround, I have simply given my zclasses an alternative property (counter_id) that I make the same as the real id, but this seems to be a clumsy way of doing it.

PCGI not working --isolated cause!
by Bill Anderson 02 Sep '00

02 Sep '00

OK, after being much frustrated with PCGI/ZServer (I run ZServer, and talk to it both direct to port (management), and from Roxen through PCGI), not working. I found the 'problem'. This works: ===== #! /bin/sh reldir=`dirname $0` PYTHONHOME=`cd $reldir; pwd` export PYTHONHOME exec /usr/bin/python \ $PYTHONHOME/z2-2.2.py \ -m '' -f '' -w6001 -d 127.0.0.1 ==== This Does not: ==== #! /bin/sh reldir=`dirname $0` PYTHONHOME=`cd $reldir; pwd` export PYTHONHOME exec /usr/bin/python \ $PYTHONHOME/z2-2.2.py \ -X -w6001 -d 127.0.0.1 ====== The difference is in the port options passed to z2.py. If you use the new -X, it shuts of pcgi. If you use the old -m '' -f '' (fo ronly running web), it works. -- Do not meddle in the affairs of sysadmins, for they are easy to annoy, and have the root password.
