Zope Book -> Chap 3 -> Interest Rate Example
by Simon Forster 05 Jun '03

05 Jun '03

Yesterday I managed to instal Python and Zope. Today I'm learning how to use Zope. I'm not 100% sure I understand the Zope model - but then I'm only on chapter 3 and I'm sure many of my questions will be answered later in the book. However, the interest rate example given in the book returns an error to me: "Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: KeyError Error Value: years" This appears to be quite a simple error where the form value "years" is not being seen by Zope. This error is thrown the first time "years" is referenced. That is: <span tal:content="years">2</span> This code appears in a Page Template. If I cut this code out, the page errors at the next form value (principal). Obviously I'm not "capturing" the form values submitted by the html form. However, The "Page Template" object doesn't give you a method to explicitly capture these form elements so I assume that this happens automagically. An incorrect assumption? Can anyone point me to where I'm going wrong?

Not the same representation, but > they represent the same time. a) Does that mean, that "1073242822" has nothing to do with the float representation of time.time() ? b) Does that mean, that "1073242822" is the same date + time as "2003/06/05 12:22:36.673 GMT+2" - it only has a different representation ? c) How can I convert the value "1073242822" to a "YYYY/MM/DD" value ? I tried: >>> time.ctime(1073242822) 'Sun Jan 04 20:00:22 2004' but this does not seem to be right in comparison to the metadata value (2003/06/05 12:22:36.673 GMT+2)... > > Is this DateTime index somehow useful (for searching?) in my catalog or should I throw 'em out ? > > It's useful of you want to do searching on dates and times, yes. Ah okay. Then, my next question is: how can I search for objects created on 2003/06/04 if I have to check agains values like "1073242822". Does the ZCatalog automatically transform input values like "2003/06/04" to these "10732..." values to search for objects ? thank you very much, lennart for clarification ! -nico ____________________________________________________________________________ Jetzt bei WEB.DE FreeMail anmelden = 1qm Regenwald schuetzen!

At the moment that's exactly how I feel. e.g. I downloaded the pdf version of the Zope book - but now I'm told that the more up-to-date versh is only available online.

Most FTP clients (WS_FTP, Fetch, etc), though, support persisting a user-preference to do passive transfers (single, client-initiated TCP control socket; there is no data connnection), which is reported to do okay through SSH TCP socket tunnels, though I have never tested this to Zope...

Yes, that's right, but I also tried to pass a DateTime() instance and got the following: Python TimeStamp : DateTime.DateTime() DateIndex value : 1073242822 Metadata value : 2003/06/05 12:22:36.673 GMT+2 Is this DateTime index somehow useful (for searching?) in my catalog or should I throw 'em out ? -nico ______________________________________________________________________________ UNICEF bittet um Spenden fur die Kinder im Irak!

are you going through the WebDAV source port (see z2.py documentation, option "-W")? if you try to retrieve that through the normal webserver port it can blow up. jens On Thursday, Jun 5, 2003, at 08:47 US/Eastern, Andreas Pakulat wrote: > On 05.Jun 2003 - 08:08:14, Jens Vagelpohl wrote: >>> got a problem here with webdav Access using cadaver.

Magic behavior of DateIndex in a ZCatalog
by Nico Grubert 05 Jun '03

05 Jun '03

Hi there, I am developing a Zope Product in Python where I store my content objects in the ZODB. Furthermore, they are cataloged in a ZCatalog. The content objects have an attribute "creationdate" so I decided to add a DateIndex and a metadata column, both named "creationdate" in the ZCatalog. When I create a content object I was confused about the values the ZCatalog stores for the Index and for the metatype because the values differ from each other. I tried to pass different TimeStamps when a create a content object. Here is what I found out: Python TimeStamp : time.asctime() DateIndex value : 1073242818 Metadata value : Thu Jun 05 12:18:58 2003 Python TimeStamp : time.gmtime() DateIndex value : '' Metadata value : (2003, 6, 5, 10, 20, 6, 3, 156, 0) Python TimeStamp : time.localtime() DateIndex value : '' Metadata value : (2003, 6, 5, 12, 11, 13, 3, 156, 1) Python TimeStamp : time.time() DateIndex value : 1073242687 Metadata value : 1054807644.02 Python TimeStamp : DateTime.DateTime() DateIndex value : 1073242822 Metadata value : 2003/06/05 12:22:36.673 GMT+2 This shows the different values stored for the DateIndex and the Metadata column in the ZCatalog. I thought, these magic "1073242..." values stored for the DateIndex "creationdate" have something to do with the float value since the epoch (1970/01/01) which can be returned by time.time(). But the value of the DateIndex (1073242687) differs so much from the value of the metadata (1054807644.02). When I used time.time() one time it stored "1054807644.02" for the DateIndex, but this happened only once ! So, here are my questions: - Why does the DateIndex value differs so much from the metadata value ? - How can I search for content objects that are created at 2003/06/05 for instance ? - Which TimeStamp should I use when I create a content object ? My configuration: (Zope 2.6.0 (binary release, python 2.1, win32-x86), python 2.1.3, win32) Thank you in advance. regards, nico ____________________________________________________________________________ Jetzt bei WEB.DE FreeMail anmelden = 1qm Regenwald schuetzen!

[OffTopic]Browser Specific Issue
by Shashank Ashtikar 05 Jun '03

05 Jun '03

Hi Everyone, This is not a Zope related question but I am posting it here since it is likely that some of you may have encountered it and solved it. So my apologies. I am working on a form where user is expected to browse the homes for a file and select the one he desires to be processed. I am using following statement to display the necessary control. <input type="File" name="file_name"> On IE when I use file_name I get complete path of the file which is exactly what I desire.but on GNU/Linux based Web Browsers like mozilla, galeon etc. only name of the file is returned. How can I get the complete path even on these browsers. The form is written entirely in dtml. I ve looked for answers via Google but I hv not had much luck so far. It is obvious from the question that I am lame at HTML. But please help/pointers anybody. Thanks in Advance Shashank
