Hi, I downloaded the Kube-overview and must admit, that I don't get any klue, why I should use it, or what problem it solves. It would be very nice to have an example. --On Samstag, März 02, 2002 13:30:15 -0500 Isaac Levy <ike(a)visuallistening.com> wrote: > Sure, > > The download page for the Kube is: > > http://www.zope.org/Members/ike/Kube/Kube1.0 > > Best, > Isaac Levy > > > > On Saturday, March 2, 2002, at 05:33 AM, Joachim Schmitz wrote: > >> Could you provide an URL for download of the software ? >> >> --On Freitag, März 01, 2002 17:01:53 -0500 Isaac Levy >> <ike(a)visuallistening.com> wrote: >> >>> THE KUBE PRODUCT IS OUT OF BETA, after extensive and positive use. >>> >>> Kubes are Metadata containers created for use with Zope Page Templates. >>> >>> More information on Kube use can be found in this downloadable PDF, >>> http://informatikburo.net/Kube/Kube1.0_overview.pdf >>> >>> >>> a bit more... >>> -- >>> The Zope Aquisition model is very powerfull, and Kubes leverage it's >>> 'sliding' behavior by acting as a single 'document' with content >>> existing >>> as 'hookable' metadata (properties and file objects). >>> >>> This enables user to get the core functtionality of a SQL database, but >>> using the Zope Object Database- (therefore the data object is >>> completely >>> extensible, movable, and mallieable- all in real time, with live data.) >>> >>> Kubes should speed the development of data-driven, ZPT based >>> applications >>> and websites considerably. >>> >>> The default data types for Kubes are oriented around a publishing-model >>> 'story content unit' idea, but can be changed to accomodate whatever >>> data >>> you want to put in them! -- >>> >>> Best- >>> Isaac >>> >>> >>> >>> Isaac Levy >>> + Office of Structured Systems >>> http://structuredsystems.net >>> >>> >>> _______________________________________________ >>> Zope-Announce maillist - Zope-Announce(a)zope.org >>> http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce >>> >>> Zope-Announce for Announcements only - no discussions >>> >>> (Related lists - Users: http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope >>> Developers: http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) >> >> >> >> Mit freundlichen Grüßen Joachim Schmitz >> -------------------------------------------------------------------- >> AixtraWare Ingenieurbüro für Internetanwendungen >> Hüsgenstr. 33a, D-52457 Aldenhoven >> Telefon: +49-2464-8851, FAX: +49-2464-905163 >> -------------------------------------------------------------------- >> Key fingerprint = DA10 CC82 62F8 1DBB 39A1 1EDC 725B 3317 A8D7 C3A6 >> Keyserver: http://germany.keyserver.net/en/ >> > Mit freundlichen Grüßen Joachim Schmitz -------------------------------------------------------------------- AixtraWare Ingenieurbüro für Internetanwendungen Hüsgenstr. 33a, D-52457 Aldenhoven Telefon: +49-2464-8851, FAX: +49-2464-905163 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Key fingerprint = DA10 CC82 62F8 1DBB 39A1 1EDC 725B 3317 A8D7 C3A6 Keyserver: http://germany.keyserver.net/en/

unbound method error with ZPT
by Peter Bengtsson 02 Mar '02

02 Mar '02

Everything used to work fine but now I get a weird error message in my METAL macros Page Template.  No line number, so I started removing things until I came to an odd conclusion. That this does NOT work: <html metal:define-macro="standard"> <br tal:replace="python:here.APythonScript()" /> </html> BUT, this works: <html metal:define-macro="standard"> <br tal:replace="here/APythonScript"/> </html> Zope 2.3.2, python 1.5.2, win98 TAL, PageTemplates 1.4.(latest) I have searched the mailinglist but found no solution. It was working before until the site got complicated. I suppose I should be more specific about the whole problem but I was hoping for a quick answer. Has anybody come across this; and solved it?? Cheers, Peter

logging out of ZMI
by Tom Cameron 02 Mar '02

02 Mar '02

This may be an old question, but I still don't understand what is happening. I have used almost every version of Zope from about 2.1.6 to 2.5.0 and in every case when I try to logout of the ZMI it just does not log me out. an extract from the Zope Book says... http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/ZB/UsingZope.dtml "To logout select Logout from the top frame of the management interface and cancel the new login. You should see a message telling you that you are logged out. If you try to access the Zope management interface after you are logged out, you'll be prompted to log in again. You can also logout of Zope by quitting your web browser." But this is not the case. When I select Logout from the top frame it does give me the new login dialog, but no matter what I choose from there on, I am still logged in and can browse and access all the zope objects. I just cant figure it out - the only method that logs me out is quitting all my browser window, which is a real pain. What am I doing wrong? Tom

Mythical Symlinks
by Phil Harris 02 Mar '02

02 Mar '02

All, I'm using the Symlink doohickey that Shane Hathaway did. http://www.zope.org/Members/hathawsh/Symlink All is well so far, but I find myself needing to add properties to the symlink itself, without impacting on the original object. Thing is that the symlink does it's job so well that the symlink is indistinguishable from the original object and when getting properties etc. it gets the properties of the original, hmmm, bugger (c). Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about ;), and if so anyone have any ideas? tia Phil

docking a URL within (<dtml-include>?)
by Roy Mathew 02 Mar '02

02 Mar '02

Dear Zopesters, What is the preferred way to render another URL inside of your page template. I don't think I want to use acquisition, since the other URL may not even developed by me (Sort of like how you can dock Visio inside of MSWORD). Is there a sort of <dtml-include> type tag. Thanks, Roy Mathew.

file attributes
by John Hunter 02 Mar '02

02 Mar '02

I am using a form to upload a file object: <tr><th>EEG File</th> <td><INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="file_name" WIDTH=60></td></tr> When the form is submitted, the REQUEST object file_name is passed to a Python Script which adds it to the file system: folder.manage_addFile(id='', file=file_name) return getattr(file_name, 'filename') This works fine. My question is on the getattr part. I got code from some example, long lost to me now, and can grok how it works, but I am having trouble finding suitable documentation. For example, what are the other attributes of file_name besides 'filename'. I tried '__dict__' to get a listing but got an error, so I suspect this is one of the protections of the Zope 'getattr'. Could someone point me to some reference documentation that would have this? Thanks, John Hunter

LocalFS and Zcatalog
by Villemin, Remi 02 Mar '02

02 Mar '02

Hi, I have a bunch of files in a local non-Zope file system that I want to index in Zope with a catalog. I tried to use LocalFS but I can not create a Zcatalog on it. I also had a look at Kaivo Document Library but it doesn't work because Kaivo requires the files to be in Zope. Is there a way to create a catalog on a LocalFS, or should I use another product? Thanks a lot, Remi
