RE: [Zope] Shut down zope from python script

Yes, we all wish we were on *N[UI]X. However the question was "How do we shut this thing down?" Using ThroughTheWeb(TTW) scripting: http://usernamewithabilitytoshutdownzope:password@zopeserver:8080/Control_Pa nel/manage_shutdown adjust the portnumber to match your server. You can do this with just about anything. Those ZopeBook blasphemers even showed that MSWord could be used to script Zope: http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/ZB/ScriptingZope.html Last example. Most people would use something like wget. :) If you want to use a python script (not to be confused with PythonScript), look at zclient: http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/ZClientMethod Troy -----Original Message----- From: Chris Withers [mailto:chrisw@nipltd.com] Sent: Friday, January 19, 2001 11:00 AM To: Dimitris Andrakakis Cc: zope(a)zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] Shut down zope from python script Dimitris Andrakakis wrote: > > Another thing: I'd consider running Zope+Apache on > NT workstation or 2000 professional, even for test > purposes.

RE: [Zope] searching names in a query
by Farrell, Troy 19 Jan '01

Jacintha, This is from the Gadfly SQL support page at: http://www.chordate.com/kwParsing/gfSQL.html ***** Some important omissions from ODBC 2.0 at this point are Nulls. Outer joins. CHECK conditions. Enforced data type constraints. Alter table (can't implement until NULLs arrive). Date, Time, and Interval data types It is hoped these will be implemented at some future time. Less important omissions include Cursor based updates and deletes (justification: if you really need them the db design is flawed, and it's possible to use python instead). LIKE string predicate (justification: use Python regexes in python code). Users and permissions (justification: Gadfly is not intended for full multiuser use at this time). ***** Note that Gadfly does not support LIKE. They suggest that you use regexes in python code. I may be totally wrong, but in order to do this, you must use external methods. Anyone know better?

RE: Workflow and document management system in Zope

Hi Nicolas, > For you, when would such products be considered ready for production ? The most important factor can be viewed from two perspectives, neither precluding the other. The ideal state arrives when complete documentation is available, or at least one person on the deployment team has dug through the source code enough to inderstand the system thoroughly, and serve as a guide and mentor to others. Waiting for complete documentation sounds like a name for a surrealist/existentialist play for geeks. You may be in a fairly good position to benefit from input from the the creators of the ZDP Tools. Maik?

Shut down zope from python script
by Richard Blumberg 19 Jan '01

19 Jan '01

I'm a newbie, running zope and apache on my win98 box, trying to learn enough to start using zope in a production environment. Windows slows down dramatically if I leave it running more than a couple of days, so I'm working on a python script that will shut everything down and reboot at a convenient hour every two days. My question is, how do I manage an orderly shutdown of the zope server from a python script running on the same machine? All help will be appreciated. Richard

workflow, gdchart
by Klaus Herrmann 19 Jan '01

19 Jan '01

HI *! I have 2 questions on Zope: (1) I need a configurable workflow management (who approves documents, who may delete documents, emails send to supervisors etc, all configurable) for Zope. are there any useable products available or do i have to learn python (seems to be a good idea anyway) and implement something like this myself? (2) Is there any documentation out there for gdchart-0.5? i installed the demo but the interesting parts are broken (at least they appear to be), so i can't figure out how it all works :-( any tutorials, how-tos, reference docs etc.? please CC messages to my address as i'm not acually subscribed to the list. thanks in advance! regards, Klaus -- Klaus Herrmann <klaus.herrmann(a)goelz.com> Goelz & Schwarz GmbH, Munich www.goelz.com phone:+49 - (0)89 - 544 67 0 22 fax: +49 - (0)89 - 544 67 0 10

Building ZPatterns Extension help
by J. Atwood 19 Jan '01

19 Jan '01

The instructions in the README.txt and on zope.org are a little vague.. How, indeed, do I " build this extension using the included Setup file in the ZPatterns directory" I can see the Setup file but that is about it. I would be more than happy to write up some documentation (on Zope.org) if someone sends me the answer. Thanks, J

RE: Tools used for programming Zope
by Spicklemire, Jerry 19 Jan '01

Hi Gerald, >> http://www.zope.org/Members/sspickle/ZCVSMixin > Since this converts between CVS and Zope already, have you > thought about the possibility of exporting it directly onto > the filesystem? Since CVS is file based, everything you export is stored as a file during the CVS phase. One of the remaining puzzles is how to improve management of Zope Objects that aren't very "file like", such as ZClasses. The file representation of these are less directly editable, but at the very least you can tell when and who made updates, and quickly see what has changed. Later, Jerry S.
