A ZCatalog reads a classes methods, so you can only make an external method be read if the External method is part of your ZClass. If this is the case, simply make an external method call my_index that returns a string. Then when object is recatalogued, ZCatalog will read that external method. -- Andy McKay, Developer.

Hi,
Ok, I could achieve something with this approach. But it's not clear for me how to set the ZCatalog to create an index from the result of an external method. Can you please explain how to achieve this?
Also, the ZCatalog queries use an "and" chain for each token provided (eg. if a query is requested for "a b c" it will be interpreted as "a" and "b" and "c"), and I'd like to implement an "or" chain in the queries.
Thanks for the help,
Daniel

Hi, I played with ZCatalog and ZClasses a time ago. Due to the fact that ZCatalog can Index all
Objects - You Can Index a
Method, .....!!! This Methods can be External-, Phython-, or DTML-Methods. But they have to return something to the catalog (DTML-RETURN Tag). You can give this method a name like "PrincipiaSearchSource" or what the hell you think of.
In my case I index about 10 different ZClass, 100 Instances of them, with a PythonMethod called text_inhalt (text_contents) Param: self Code return string.join((self.id, self.inhalt), '; ')
Or in an subclass return string.join((self.id, self.teaser, self.gericht, self.keys, self.art, self.norm, self.parteien), '; ')
Be warned you can use a DTML Method and return something with the dtml-return tag, but this is not working very well within a ZCLass, !!! ??????
P.S.: If you want to call a resultObject (e.g. a ZClass) directly through Zope/DTML/Python use the PyMethod "fetchObj" much cooler than only via catalog.getpath (which is link /hfg/kkjk/)
to do somthing like this:
<dtml-in mein> ****Result from a canned search
<dtml-call
"REQUEST.set('meineURL',fetchObj(_,Catalog.getpath(_.int(_['sequence-item'])
)))">****convert /parent/child to an real object parent.child
<dtml-var meineURL> *** points to a ZClass [Base:Renderable] calling the Object/Class directly, which renders itself
</dtml-in>
use something like this:
Python Method: fetchObj
Param: _,fetchStr, attr=None
obj = _ for p in string.split(fetchStr, '/'): obj = obj[p] if attr is None: return obj else: return render(_.getattr(obj, attr))
