Is there a way to schedule Zope to do perform some actions? For example, can I set Zope to export a folder every night at 10 pm? Of course, since a method in Zope can be called by a url, I can write a script to visit the method every night, but I would like to find out if it can be done inside Zope.
Not yet. For now you'll have to use a cron job in conjunction with for example lib/python/ZPublisher/Client.py (check it out, it is very handy for calling Zope URLs). When I have time for it, I am working on a ZScheduler which will provide a Zope objets for DTML code to be executed at specified times. -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | T: +31 35 7502100 F: +31 35 7502111 | mj@antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ---------------------------------------------
