How to get the path?
by Sorin Marti 10 Mar '03

10 Mar '03

Hi all, I want to upload files to the filesystem on my server (not into zope's Data.fs) With <input type="file" name="file"> I get the filename...right? But If I want to copy it with an external method like this: copy = os.system('cp %s /tmp' %file.filename) it doesent work because file.filename is only the file but not the path... (for example test.pdf) How do I get the path?

ZPT newbie Q
by G. Clifford Williams 10 Mar '03

10 Mar '03

I'm just starting to work with ZPT (as of today), the first question I have is; Is there a way to keep "template/title" from being displayed in the list that is generated by the tal:repeate directive? I'd like to generate a list of links that does not include the index_html page. My second question is: Is there any way to sort the list that's generated? --The code that I have-- <title tal:content="template/title">Title</title> </head> <body> <font size=+1 tal:content="template/title">Title</font> <UL tal:condition="container/objectValues"> <LI tal:repeat="item container/objectValues"> <span tal:replace="item/title">ITEM</span> </LI> </UL> thanks in advance

How to list subfolders of any folder in DTML?
by Michael Fox 10 Mar '03

10 Mar '03

Hi *, I'm having problems with what seems to be an easy task. I have a site which looks similar to below... Folder A Folder B Folder B1 Folder B2 Folder B3 Folder C Folder C1 Folder D Folder D1 Folder D2 I have a DTML Method in my Folder A named "listSubfolders" which contains the following code: <dtml-in "objectItems(['Folder'])" sort="id" skip_unauthorized> <li><a href="&dtml-absolute_url;"><dtml-var title_or_id></a></li> </dtml-in> I want the ability to call this object in any one index_html (DTML Document) within any one folder, to create some sort of navigation of it's subfolders. eg. If I'm looking at index_html in Folder B I would see - o Folder B1 o Folder B2 o Folder B3 So far the only way I can get this to work is change my DTML Documents to DTML Methods... which isn't really an option due to an existing ZCatalogue amongst other things. If anyone can suggest a work around or point me in the right direction it would be appreciated. Regards, Michael Fox Web Analyst Programmer Century Software Tel: +61-2-9460-1422 Fax: +61-2-9460-3098

Debugging Zope Products
by Derek Basch 10 Mar '03

10 Mar '03

Hello everyone, I am trying to understand how to use the interactive dubugger and am stuck on something. At the very beginning of the "Interactive Debugging" section of the Zope Developers Guide: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZDG/current/TestingAndDebugging.stx… There is this paragraph: "So, for the sake our example, let's say that you have a News object which is defined in a Zope Product called ZopeNews, and is located in the lib/python/Products/ZopeNews directory. The class that defines the News instance is also called News, and is defined in the News.py module in your product." I do not understand what the author means by "News object"? What exactly is a News object and how was it defined? Is it a class that was registered with the registrar object during product initialization? What would really help me is a tutorial using a real Zope product rather than a fake one like in the Developers Guide. Can anyone clear my confusion? Thanks, Derek Basch __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Tax Center - forms, calculators, tips, more http://taxes.yahoo.com/

RE: [Zope] Whether Zope can do the job
by sean.upton＠uniontrib.com 10 Mar '03

I've never used PaperPort, but you are likely not wrong. The likely solution is to build a fat-client application using ZEO or XML-RPC and use Zope as a backend, which obviously would require a great deal of work. Alternately, if a web-based interface and for working with documents post-scan is okay, I assume you could write scripts to control your scanning software for batching document scan+upload, and upload this content into a CMF site, for example, assuming your Zope instance can interface with yet more component automation to talk to your OCR software (loaded on the Zope server?) for metadata extraction.

I don't think Zope is an alternative to it. Albeit you can build one with it (cf. sean's post) keep in mind zope is web oriented, ie. you would have to build an interface based on html. Are you really looking for a web application? To provide the same ease of use as PaperPort in a browser would be quite a challenge, IMHO. Someone tell me I'm wrong... (well I suppose you could combine with Java or SASH+Javascript but...).

Accessing subfolder of Zope using Webdav and Webdrive
by Tim Wilson 10 Mar '03

10 Mar '03

Hi everyone, I'm experimenting with Webdav access to my Zope using the Webdrive product. I can access the root of my Zope with no trouble, but I'm not able to include a subfolder in the URL and have it connect. I've tried something like this (and many other combinations) for the URL: http://mysite.com/subfolder:9080 I want to give access to this subfolder to another person, but I don't want her to have access to the root. I've searched the Zope list archives, but I can't find this particular example anywhere. Is anyone doing this successfully? -Tim -- Tim Wilson Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA Science teacher, Linux fan, Zope developer, Grad. student, Daddy mailto:wilson@visi.com | http://qwerk.org/ | public key: 0x8C0F8813

You have to do something like this: fileContent=context.REQUEST.form['file'].read() Then, you have to take a look at the localfs dtml methods to see how a file is created in the local file system.
