mySQL and Zope and multiple databases
by Schmidt, Allen J. 07 Aug '01

We are moving a bunch of stuff to mySQL. One database currently exists and some of the new tables that need to be brought in have the same names. If I create a new database to house the new tables, how can I use ZSQL methods to compare fields in tables between two ZmySQL connections? Thanks

RE: [Zope] Building a page from multiple paramatised queries
by Farrell, Troy 07 Aug '01

A few bits of advice for you: 1) Never use an SQL key of ID with Zope. It could lead to a namespace collision, as id is a zope term referring to an objects id. You probably haven't had a problem _yet_, as ZSQL methods use the REQUEST namespace almost (there are some unusual instances) exclusively. I usually prefix it with something like "sql_" so I get "sql_Id". 2) To get SQL data from REQUEST explicitly, use <dtml-var expr="REQUEST.sql_variable_name"> (or is it <dtml-var expr="REQUEST.sql_variable_name()">) Try something like this: ### FeatureDetail ### <dtml-var name="standard_html_header"> <dtml-in name="FeatureDetailQuery"> <h1><dtml-var name="Name"></h1> <dtml-in name="Query2"> <p> <dtml-var name="bosco"> </p> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> ### FeatureDetailQuery ### SELECT * FROM Feature WHERE <dtml-sqltest sql_Id op="eq" type="int"> ### Query2 ### SELECT bosco FROM Fishsticks WHERE <dtml-sqltest sql_Id op="eq" type="int"> Note also that in my above FeatureDetail, if FeatureDetailQuery returns more than one row of data, you will get something like: <h1>SOme name</h1> <p> Stuff </p> <h1>Some other name</h1> <p> More stuff </p> Troy -----Original Message----- From: Giles Chamberlin [mailto:GChamberlin@Ridgeway-Sys.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2001 6:06 AM To: 'zope(a)zope.org' Subject: [Zope] Building a page from multiple paramatised queries I'm a zope novice so I'm probably missing something obvious. My intent is to build a web page from the results of two queries, each of which are paramatised by the same value. I've got a single query working fine: FeatureDetailQuery has a parameter ID and SQL: select * from Feature where <dtml-sqltest Id op=eq type=int> FeatureDetail is a simple web page: <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h1><dtml-var Name></h1> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> and I bind the two together by referencing them with the a href = FeatureDetailQuery/Id/<dtml-var Id>/FeatureDetail All's well. My problem is that I want to add the output of another query, also parametised by Id to the same web page and I'm stumped as to how to go about it. Any suggestions? Giles Chamberlin

RE: [Zope] Cataloging AND (indexing OR meta data)
by sean.upton＠uniontrib.com 07 Aug '01

Since ZCatalog objects are 'dumb' and don't have direct access to the objects they have indexed, and it would be nice to have some of the data from those objects for search results pages somehow, we need some way of getting that data. Metadata is essentially a cache of that data (or a copy, that is) that is used for constructing result lists. You should only put fieldnames for properties containing summary data in the meta data tabs. An alternative to using metadata in Zope 2.3+ is using Catalog.getObject() which will return the object in each iteration; I currently do this in one of my applications because I have had problems using metadata on some fields (likely because I was doing it wrong). There is a big performance penalty for going about it this way, though, as you have to traverse the ODB to each object to get data for each line in your result list. Eventually, once I get it working right, I will switch this over to using metadata instead, which might increase re-indexing time, but increase result list performance since I eliminate the need for getObject()...

RE: [Zope] My first silly Question
by Farrell, Troy 07 Aug '01

Urk? I'm not sure we understand. I think you have something like this: folder1/folder2/folder3/folder4/page5 and a DTML Method at folder1/method2. If you want to show page5 in content 2, you need to do <dtml-var expr="folder2.folder3.folder4.page5(_.None, _)"> in the source for content 2. If that's not what you need, please clarify. Thanks.
