easy python script
by Peter Bengtsson 26 Mar '01

26 Mar '01

in DTML I do this... <dtml-in "folder.objectValues('DTML Document')" sort=title reverse> How do I do the same in a python script? Here's a good start. for thing in context.folder.objectValues('DTML Document'): Strange, that this one's never crossed my mind, but never mind about that. Peter

mounted database howto...

A while back, somebody wrote a mounted database howto (specifically for use with CoreSessionTracking)... I've not only forgotten where it was, I've forgotten who wrote it! Anyone remember?

Python Script problem
by Ronald L. Chichester 25 Mar '01

25 Mar '01

Okay, I think there is a context problem here, but I'm not sure. So I turn to the experts... What I'm trying to do is allow users to create folders in some root folder. There are two DTML Methods and one Python script: 1. The first DTML Method is a form to gather certain information from the user. 2. The second DTML Method is an "action" method which accepts the "post" form data from (1.) and where I have some DTML code to assign a unique ID before I call the script. 3. Is a Python script that is called by (2.) and which is supposed to create a Folder, assign some properties to it, and create an index_html DTML method within that new folder. Here is the code for the first DTML method (1. addClientForm)... <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h2 align="center">Add a client.</h2> <form action="addClientAction" method="post"> <table border="0" width="95%" cellspacing="8" align="center"> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">Name:</td> <td width="75%" align="left"><input type="text" name="client_name" value="" size="40"></td> </td> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">City/State:</td> <td width="75%" align="left"><input type="text" name="client_location" value="" size="40"></td> </td> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">Main Telephone:</td> <td width="75%" align="left"><input type="text" name="client_telephone" value="" size="40"></td> </td> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">Main Facsimile:</td> <td width="75%" align="left"><input type="text" name="client_facsimile" value="" size="40"></td> </td> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right">Main Web Site:</td> <td width="75%" align="left"><input type="text" name="client_web_site" value="" size="40"></td> </td> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right" valign="top">Description and<br>General Comments:</td> <td width="75%" align="left"><textarea cols="40" rows="10" name="comments" wrap="virtual"></textarea></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="25%" align="right"></td> <td width="75%" align="left"><input type="submit" value="submit client name"></td> </td> </table> </form> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> Here is the code for the second DTML method (2. addClientAction)... <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('ts', ZopeTime())"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('id', _.str(_.int(ts)))"> <dtml-call expr="addClient(id=id, client_name=client_name, client_location=client_location, client_telephone=client_telephone, client_facsimile=client_facsimile, client_web_site=client_web_site, comments=comments)"> <p>If you made it this far, something went right.</p> <p><a href="<dtml-var URL1>">Return</a> to the main window</a> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> Here is the python script (3. addClient) """ This code actually creates a folder for the client and a default index_html file linking to the contact/incident code.

Zope based Authentication. Why Why Why
by Mohan Baro 25 Mar '01

25 Mar '01

Hi all, Going thru the archives of this mail list, I can't help but notice the following 1) There are many zoper who need to use a login form to authenticate users 2) Most do not like http authentication 3) ZPatterns and LoginManager are good solutions, but are not appropiate for new users (compilation required, usersourse required ... &&&& poor documentation. Why can't Zope's default authenication be form based? (cookie based, ZODB based ...) Why do we have to start with HTTP authentication? (can't logout, hard to manipulate) Why does everybody think ZPatterns/LoginManager is always the answer. (simple problem, Tough solution, overkill) Can somebody post a good form based authenication system without using ZPatterns/LoginManager. Mohan.

Re: [Zope] Are Versions Reliable?
by J�lio Dinis Silva 25 Mar '01

Yes I confirm I've seen some problems with commited versions not unlocking modified objects, but I think that was fixed. The problem I still see in versions is that when you in a folder create one object, nobody else working out of the version are able to create objects in that folder because the version has locked the folder. But this are small problems if you use versions with caution they are really one of zope's great features.

Does the "var" directory already exists? A colleague reported recently, that a newly installed Zope was lacking a "var" directory (which probably is build by the "python w*_pcgi.py"). Dieter

Re: [Zope] [OT] EMACS, FTP & Firewalls
by icottee＠bluefountain.com 25 Mar '01

Chris I believe you want ... (setq make-backup-files nil) in your .emacs file will sort out your backup file problem. My zope directory is still littered with the little '~' versions so worthwhile sharing this here. As for ftp - I seem to recall using passive mode with the xemacs ftp client under windows (well hey - it's still emacs and it's still under windows :-) ) ... (custom-set-variables '(efs-use-passive-mode t)) with a bit of judicious editing you can have an .emacs file that works with both emacs and xemacs. Can't help with the ftp client by the way ... I read a suggestion of using wget from someone on the net but never used and don't know. Ian J Cottee Blue Fountain Systems Ltd

Are you satisfied with the role listing in Zope's management interface? If so, the answer is yes. You find out how by looking at the source code of the respective page. Dieter
