So Andrew's answer was almost ok: <tal:block define="news python: context.news.objectValues(['event']" > <ul tal:condition="news" tal:repeat="new news" > <li> <a tal:attributes="href news/absolute_url" tal:content="news/title">Link</a> </li> </ul> </tal:block> (replace html markup with what appropriate of course...) NB: see also objectIds() and objectItems() in the doc. HTH -- bruno desthuilliers développeur bruno(a)modulix.org http://www.modulix.com

exuser older not working in 2.9.0
by John Huttley 06 Mar '06

06 Mar '06

HI, In a burst of enthusiasm, I trashed my zope 2.8 for windows and installed 2.9, with a new instance. I've reloaded ZStyleSheet and ZODBC, which have come up in the ZMI ok and exuserfolder, which doesn't. In 2.8, there were some minor issues with fcrypt which meant it came up with a broken box icon, initially. I've installed it in 2.9, fixed the issues and nothing comes up in the ZMI Running Zope in the console doesn't show any relevant messages. I'm at a loss as to how to debug this. Any help gratefully received. --john

RE: [Zope] catching BadRequest exceptions
by Palermo, Tom 05 Mar '06

05 Mar '06

I'm trying to catch when someone tries to create an object with the same Id as another object. I thought this was handled by checkValidId. It doesn't appear that this error is handled by standard_error_message. Whenever this error happens, the rror message is not skinned like the site I'm working on (ie. It's just some very basic html output).

Some "BadRequest" exceptions are not handled by "standard_error_message" (a bug, please file a bug report). But, this is not the case for the one from "checkValidId". Affected are errors detected in "REQUEST.processInputs()". They are not handled by "standard_error_message" because they are detected too early -- before traversal has even begun. As a result, there is not yet any "standard_error_message" in the request context. These errors are usually type errors during conversion of request parameters called for by ":<type>" suffixes, e.g. "start:int=a" would cause such an error. The easy workaround is not to use such ZPublisher type conversions but perform the conversions yourself in your application code. -- Dieter

[ANN] TextIndexNG 3.1.7 released
by Andreas Jung 05 Mar '06

05 Mar '06

I am pleased to announce the release of TextIndexNG V 3.1.7. TextIndexNG V 3 is a complete new implementation based on Zope 3 technologies and can be used both in Zope 2.8 or in Zope 3. What's new? - multi-field indexing and query support - multi-lingual support - configurable converters (through ZCML) - new indexing API (allowing you to hook your custom content types with TextIndexNG through Zope 3 adapters). Changes in V 3.1.7: - fixed some broken unittests - fixed HTML converter - passing the 'language' query parameter down to the ranking code (reported by Simon Pamies) Requirements: - Zope 2.8+, Zope 3.2+ Download: http://sf.net/projects/textindexng Project page: http://opensource.zopyx.biz/OpenSource/TextIndexNG3 For installation and documentation issues refer to doc/README.txt from the archive. It's basically the same procedure as with former versions except you *need* to recompile the extension modules. Windows binaries of the required extension modules are currently not available (any volunteers?). TextIndexNG V 3 is published under the ZPL.

Zope for non-Web applications?
by Rodrigo de Salvo Braz 04 Mar '06

04 Mar '06

Hi, I don't even know Python yet, but I was wondering if it makes sense to use Zope as a OO database in non-Web applications written in Python. Any thoughts on that? Thanks, Rodrigo

catching BadRequest exceptions
by Palermo, Tom 04 Mar '06

04 Mar '06

All, It seems that BadRequest exceptions, like the ones thrown by checkValidId() in OFS.ObjectManager (lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py), are not handled by a standard_error_message. That is, I can't skin the error message so it looks friendly and doesn't show a traceback. Does anyone know where the code that generates the error message for these exceptions is kept? Is there a way to make these exceptions get handled via standard_error_message? Thanks, Tom Palermo Senior Web Developer Constella Group, LLC

awstats and zope
by Barry Drake 04 Mar '06

Does anyone know of a customization of the awstats file search_engines.pm (Perl) that works with Zope's built in search? Before I start doing this, I'd like to know if someone has already done it! Thanks. Barry Drake
