[Zope] Re: [Zope-dev] getting a dtmlfile from ZODB instead of the file system.

From: "Romain Slootmaekers" <romain@zzict.com>

The problem i have is that the forms for management are always created on the file system, like this:

index_html = DTMLFile('www/index_html', globals())

I really would like the index_html file to come from the ZODB instead of the file system, so how do I do that?

You create a DTMLMethod called index_html. Either manually, or like so: path = os.path.join(os.path.split( __file__)[0], 'dtml') self.addDTMLMethod('index_html', '', open(os.path.join(path, 'index_html.dtml' ))) This assumes your object is an object manager. It will create an index_html DTMLMethod and the default contents of this DTMLMethod will be what is in the dtml/index_html.dtml file.
