>Just tried to install Zope-2.6.1 from src on my vanilla redhat7.1 system. Its >running python 2.1.1 (I know...I should upgrade) Hi, I have been running zope on win2000 machines and I was looking to go to linux/redhat. I thought zope installed it's own python during installation, is this diferent in linux? Thanks.

Thanks JC, this is one email I'm going to tuck away as a reference. I knew there had to be a way but my confussion and not finding the right reference material/web source leads me in the wrong directions sometimes.

One of the rules of Zope is that whatever you can do from the management interface you can do anywhere. There really is no magic involved. Now, products aren't going to give you clever interfaces for inclusion with your code, because they can't even begin to know what you have in mind. What you can do, however, is to treat their management interfaces as a template to make your own interface. Say you want to allow someone to create a File from wherever. You like index_html, so we'll use that. (I'm using File rather than ExtFile for this example so that those playing along at home aren't left out; the principle is exactly the same.) Here's a crash course on how to do that: How does File add a File instance to some folder? Watch the URLs in the ZMI when you do that from the pull-down. It calls manage_addProduct/OFSP/fileAdd on some Folder(ish) object. This is defined in the __init__.py in lib/python/Products/OFSP As you can see, it has the various fields in an HTML form that are necessary to create a File. What is the action of the form? Take a look at the source. It is manage_addFile relative to the current Folderish object. So, calling that on some folder with a request containing the parameters like the form constructs will create a File and add it to that folder. So now you want to create your own interface for adding Files. Copy the form code out of the File's add page, and stick it in your own page (index_html), changing the formatting if you like. Setting the action to manage_addFile is the most important part. You would have to do the same thing for the edit pages, if you want to be able to edit. There are some problems here, like 'manage_addFile' redirects to 'manage_main'. If you don't like that, you can either create a script that calls 'manage_addFile(REQUEST)' and returns/redirects where you want, or you can write your own file-add function that calls the class constructor to make the instance and adds it to the folder with '_setObject' in a similar manner to the original code. Alternatively, you can create your own product that subclasses File and change the behaviour of whatever functions you like. --jcc _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

ZClass embedding HTML and PDF
by Fabio Rolando 28 Mar '03

Hi everybody. I'm trying to build a ZClass that can hold a document in HTML (uploaded during the creation of the instance) and its PDF version (also uploaded) reachable using a link in the HTML. Is this possible? Could you please give me some direction to do this? I thank you a lot in advance.

Hi, I have a cgi script to uploading files to a file system I am trying to test. I have posted questions about localfs and extfile that seem to fit my needs but I have not found a solution that a user can run the product from ex. index_html. I can only run the product through the management interface. I am trying to avoid setting up user accounts. I can only found cgi information in the online help and the install notes which are not much help. And of course, I am having problems getting it to work. I was just trying to find another way to solve my problem. I am still have allot to learn with Zope/Python and how the products interact and my company is too cheap to send me to training. I am starting to understand most of the answers sent back to me but sometimes I don't if for example the "objectManager" is a dtml, python issue, or both. I know most of this part of message has nothing to do with the original question but I guess I needed to vent and I feel better. Bad day at work and I have only been here for an hour. :^) -----Original Message----- From: Chris Withers [mailto:chrisw@nipltd.com] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 6:53 AM To: McDonnell, Larry Cc: 'Zope@Zope.

I get a number of warnings about using Python v2.2.2. Is Zope likely to support this version in the near future? -- John
