The ZPatterns project the Phil Eby and Ty Sarna are running is intended to lay the groundwork for just what you want. They call it "SWARM", and if memory serves, the "W" is for "Workflow". ZPatterns has been incorporated into the next rev. of the Portal Tool Kit to some degree. http://www.zope.org/Members/pje/Wikis/ZPatterns/HomePage http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-ptk/ The discussion below is from: http://www.zope.org/Members/pje/Wikis/ZPatterns/SummarizedVersion " Other applications of ZPatterns stevea: I'm using it to support a Product Line Infrastructure -- a bunch of related applications that reuse bits of each other but in differnet contexts. However, I've only got the first app so far :-) JeffH?: We need to build a workflow system. We need to build a content management system. We need to build a customer relationship management system. I only want to build each one once. They must, at some point, cooperate with each other depending on the context in which they are being used. roche: we also need to build a customer relationship system rdmurray: We could probably use a community collaboration on a CRM project. MrTopf?: wonders if he could use ZPatterns for his Groupware ideas.. SWARM pje: ZPatterns is the basis for another system Ty and I will be building, called SWARM... State-based Workflow And Resource Management So, it is probably a good match for other workflow apps. stevea: I've seen that acronym somewhere inthe Wiki I think. Will SWARM be open source or verio internal? pje: Open source. tsarna: (pje and I are arguing as to weather propertysheets on users already work or not... hold on :) pje: The idea is that there will be Plans, which have Phases, Events, and Roles. Then "ObjectsWithPlans" will use the plan as a kind of state-based attribute provider. You can actually do state-based stuff now, using just GAPs?. jean: I'm champing at the bit to show off something like SWARM at work. Stuff like Journyx and an inhouse issue tracker are being pushed, and I feel they're steps backwards. We're going to have to zopify some anyway, better to invest more in it, not disperse across other cruft." To me ZPatterns and SWARM represent an even higher level of Zope development that will impact Zope Deployment similarly to the way Visual Basic changed Windows Development. Watching this take shape is kind of like knowing about the Normandy Invasion about six months ahead of time. Later, Jerry S..

How to test if an object exist
by Francois-Regis CHALAOUX 23 Aug '00

23 Aug '00

Hi, In the following code I test if a folder exists. The folder name to test is generated on the fly and here I try to simultate it with 'exce' function (may my error). The first time object2create does not exist and object2create is well created but if run again the script I obtain the following error : Errot Type: NameError Error Value: folder1 How to manage this problem ? FR. ===== CODE ===== def testFolder(self): self=self.this() sub1=self.folder1 exec "object2create = 'folder11'" try: if sub1.object2create: return 'Object exists' except AttributeError: sub1.manage_addFolder(object2create) return 'Object created'

Hi Phil > Is docsByTitle a DTML Document? It's a Method alright -- cutting straight off the screen:: DTML Method at /docs / docsByTitle and 'index_html' is:: DTML Document at /docs / index_html > <a href="<dtml-var document_id><dtml-var sequence-query>qs=<dtml-var > next-sequence-start-number>"> Hmm, it sounds like you expected 'document_id' to refer to 'index_html' instead of to 'docsByTitle'. That sets me thinking. Hmm! It works exactly that way if you replace 'document_id' with 'id'! Does this break anything?:: <a href="<dtml-var id><dtml-var sequence-query>qs=<dtml-var next-sequence-start-number>"> Thanks! -- Jean Jordaan -- technical writer -- Mosaic Software -- Zope 2.1.6 on WinNT and W2K

Including a method returning batches inside a page.
by Jean Jordaan 23 Aug '00

23 Aug '00

Hi all In my 'index_html', I have:: <dtml-var docsByTitle> This is supposed to return batches of documents, similarly to http://www.zope.org/Products/ [1]. It works halfway, but the links to previous and next batches of course refer to 'docsByTitle' and not to 'index_html':: <a href="<dtml-var document_id><dtml-var sequence-query>qs=<dtml-var next-sequence-start-number>"> I could include the looping code in 'index_html' (like [1] does), but that isn't pretty -- and besides, I'd like to be able to choose between 'docsByTitle', 'docsByOrigin', 'docsBySeries', etc. Is the best way to do this to carry the relevant variable ('sequence-query', 'next-sequence-start-number' back and forth between 'index_html' and 'docsByTitle' in the REQUEST? How would you tackle this? -- Jean Jordaan -- technical writer -- Mosaic Software -- Zope 2.1.6 on WinNT and W2K

PYTHONPATH issue .. import failing
by Jean Jordaan 23 Aug '00

Hi Zopers When installing the 'jcNTUserFolder' product, I now get a broken product in the Control Panel, and the following traceback:: jcNTUserFolder Import Traceback Traceback (innermost last): File "C:\programs\ZopeDev\lib\python\OFS\Application.py", line 387, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "C:\programs\ZopeDev\lib\python\Products\jcNTUserFolder\__init__.py", line 1, in ? import NTUserFolder File "C:\programs\ZopeDev\lib\python\Products\jcNTUserFolder\NTUserFolder.py", line 9, in ? import win32net, win32netcon ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found. My PYTHONPATH is set as follows:: > echo $PYTHONPATH C:\programs\ZopeDev\bin The importing code in 'C:\programs\ZopeDev\lib\python\Products\jcNTUserFolder\NTUserFolder.py' looks like:: import win32api import win32net, win32netcon import win32security The files to be imported seem to be:: C:\programs\ZopeDev\bin\lib\win32\win32api.pyd C:\programs\ZopeDev\bin\lib\win32\win32net.pyd C:\programs\ZopeDev\bin\lib\win32\lib\win32con.py So why is 'win32api' found and the other two not found? The Python API ref has: "For instance, if the Python executable is found in "/usr/local/bin/python", it will assume that the libraries are in "/usr/local/lib/python1.5". (In fact, this particular path is also the ``fallback'' location, used when no executable file named "python" is found along $PATH.) The user can override this behavior by setting the environment variable $PYTHONHOME, or insert additional directories in front of the standard path by setting $PYTHONPATH. The Zope install has no 'lib/pythonN.M' directory -- so along what path are imports searched for then? -- Jean Jordaan -- technical writer -- Mosaic Software -- Zope 2.1.6 on WinNT and W2K
