Zope chat
by David Spencer 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

I'm not sure what type of chatroom functionality you're looking for, but you might have options through Jabber Instant Messenger (www.jabber.org) which includes a groupchat transport. I have personally been looking at ways to implement the groupchat using a Java applet for specific projects managed through an intranet. As in Lotus Quickplace, when a team member loads the project homepage, I would like for the applet to load automatically, indicating the online presence of other team members and providing the groupchat function. Ideally, this would take advantage of existing zope authentication. I know LDAP and ODBC user storage has been implemented in the CVS version of the Jabber server, so it should be able to query the same user database as zope. There is also an effort to implement the Jabber server and groupchat transport in python at pyjama.sourceforge.net. Information regarding java functionality, including a sample applet I think, can be found at jabberbeans.org. I would love to hear from anyone interested implementing this type of integration between Jabber and Zope.

I would rather like to see one of the OpenSource Chats get integrated into Zope (e.g. get pseudonym from LoginManager UserSource, integrate administration in Zope management interface etc.), I'm not very happy with ZRTChat. http://www.zope.org/Members/jwashin/ZRTChat It's a great example and "100% Zope", but it will (would) need a lot of enhancements for prod sites.

I took a look at some products, but no one has satisfied me yet. If anybody knows about _good_ chatroom, please let me know ! Where _good_ means: + highly customizable view of the chatroom + non-flickering refresh (I used jzChat from www.javazoom.net, but it uses JavaScript on client side, so refresh is flickering) So, it should be Java applet on client side. It can be almost anything on server side - Java servlet, Java stand-alone application, native binary program, standard IRC server, CGI script, Zope Product, etc... I don't need many channels at one time. If you have seen (almost) ready-to-use chatroom solution, your help is greatly appreciated ! :) ololo(a)zeus.polsl.gliwice.pl /--------------------------------------\ | `long long long' is too long for GCC | \--------------------------------------/ _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Yes, we're still working on a "broadtree" implementation that may allay some of these problems, although I don't have an ETA. > > It has no published and well defined query syntax (there's > patches here, > bits there, but no definitive document on how to use it, how to batch > with it, how to perform complex and structured queries, particularly > with TextIndex'es) Hopefully, the Zope book will make it more clear from a user perspective, and sometime in the very distant future I will be writing a chapter in the developer's guide about the catalog. I agree that the ZCatalog wrapper should probably wrap more of the underlying catalog's methods, but these need to be rationalized, defined and then documented in the API docs. This is something for dev.zope.org, probably. > > Don't get me wrong, it is very cool, but only kindof 70% there :S > (and I get the impression that doing the remaining 30% properly would > require a rewrite...) > > As an example, we've been trying to do Zope-based versions of the > mailing list archives for a coupla months now and the Catalog keeps > exploding in different ways (huge resource consumption, even for only > 30K messages or so, no matter what storage is used) Yes.

This is why the annoying logging code was added to the catalog. It seems to be related to the TextIndex implementation, but I'm still trying to pin it down.

Re: [Zope] Newbie SQL problem: Query Error: Cannot render query template
by Stephen Nosal 31 Aug '00

Troy- Have you tried running this from the DOS prompt? I ran into all sorts of problems running 2.1.6 on NT4WS with the ODBCDA. Everything was fine when I used the start and stop scripts from the command line. When I moved to starting zope as a service, my ODBC connections kept failing. Never did find an NT solution, I just moved everything to Linux. It's worth a try. - Steve On Wed, 30 August 2000, "Farrell, Troy" wrote: > > Hello. > > I am running Zope as a service on NT4WS.

I hate it when this happens - I just had the IS department throw out 2 months of work because it doesn't conform to corporate standards. That's because they have no standard and all the developers do is fight over what vendors to use and who will do the development. I hope your project goes better than mine...
