I'm new in zope and I'm trying to upload a file on zope using localfs. I already done it through a little basic html page + python script.
I would like now use it in an external method.
Here is the line added in the external method:
self.dir_filesystem.manage_upload(file=self.zipfile)
zipfile is the name of the file in the html form (File <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="zipfile" SIZE="25" VALUE="">)
I got the following error:
File "D:\\D-Side/qross/zope_gui\Extensions\Project.py", line 31, in PrepareToCreateOrUpdateObject self.dir_filesystem.manage_upload(file=self.zipfile) exceptions.AttributeError: zipfile
I'm quite sure that my error lies in the way I reference 'zipfile' but I don't know how to proceed
Two questions to ask yourself: what is 'self' and where would 'zipfile' be? Since we're not in the same room, I'll answer: 'self' is the object that the method is called on. 'zipfile' is present in the request, since it comes from a form. How would data from the request be available through the object you called the method on? But: you can get the request from the context:: self.request.zipfile should work. --jcc -- "Building Websites with Plone" http://plonebook.packtpub.com
