adding value to the path
by Kate Legere 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

When I submit this: <input name="branch/manage_editProperties:method" type="submit" class="form-element" value="Save Changes" / > It works very nicely. I'd like the user to choose the page to amend so I have a select option to choose the page (in this case the one named 'branch' <select size="3" width="100" name="pageName"> <dtml-in "getParentNode().objectItems('DTML Document')" > <dtml-if "id() != 'index_html'"> <dtml-if "id() != 'editProperties'"> <option value="<dtml-var id>"> <dtml-var title_or_id></option> </dtml-if> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> </select> And I think this ought to work.. but it doesn't... <input name=document.propForm.pageName.value+"/manage_editProperties:method" type="submit" class="form-element" value="Save Changes" / > It does absolutely nothing. How do I pass it the value to the input name? Katie

External Method importing modules
by Alan 13 Feb '07

13 Feb '07

Dear List, I have an external method and now I developed I new module in a separated file and then I am trying to make my external method to import it but I am failing here. Where should place my module file in order to be found by my external method? I tried to place it in the same folder of my external method, but no success. Any help would be very appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

javi, please, STAY on the mailing list! > i put this in a new extractCredentials but it don´t work: Again... what 'don't work' means? Raises exception? Have you tried to debug your code? Maybe try to use pdb? AFAIR there is a nice tutorial about using pdb with plone. I think this should help you a lot in understanding what happens in PAS and your plugin. And one more thing. I'm not aware of plone issues here so there may be something different because of this. -- Maciej Wisniowski

Dears, I have in a external method user = REQUEST.AUTHENTICATED_USER And so I can get user.getUserName(), user.getAllGroupNames() but I cannot find how to get user's full name and user's e-mail. Any idea? Many thanks in advance.

Z SQL Method properties
by David VanKirk 13 Feb '07

13 Feb '07

Does anyone know of a way that I can write a script to traverse through a folder of Z SQL Methods and find out the connection ID for each? Reason being, I have two connections objects for my ZSQL Methods to use. I'm trying to phase out the one and I'd like to write a script to tell me which ZSQL Methods need to have their connection IDs switch to the new connection object. I'd hate to have to go through each one by hand to find out. Thank you. -- David VanKirk

Well, I did it: from App.config import getConfiguration extPath = getConfiguration().instancehome+'/Extensions' if sys.path.count(extPath) == 0: sys.path.insert(0, extPath) And it worked for what I wanted.

Standard CookieAuthHelper and ZODBUserManager plugins are not enough for your use case? Seems that your problem (that you start like a Member but after clicking somewhere else you're unauthenticated) is because of code in extract credentials. What happens there? Credentials are extracted from request. So, if you have __ac_name and __ac_password in the request you're authentictated. When you're visiting another url, there is no __ac_name and __ac_password in request anymore, so you become unauthenticated. Right? So you have to store somewhere information about sucessful login. Solution might be the code I've sent you in previous mail. After authentication with __ac_name and __ac_password from the request it stores data in session. Then, on another pages session is checked for credentials and... you should be still authenticated. Another solution is to just use CookieAuthHelper which stores data in cookies. This is first part. You have credentials. Second thing is to compare them with users stored in ZODB (that what ZODBUserManager is doing...) -- Maciej Wisniowski

> In session object, but i don´t know how to do it. > Can you help me please???? Please stay on list. Something like: session = self.REQUEST.SESSION session.set('_key', credentials) to retrieve data: creds = session.get('_key', None) So after proper authentication you may store object with user name etc. in session and later just check if it is there. If so, then user is authenticated... In general this is how CAS4PAS plugin works. -- Maciej Wisniowski
