Hi,
yesterday I've released PropertyTools - the successor of PropertyObject/-folder.
What the hell are PropertyTools good for?
If you want to "prototype" object-oriented database-applications with Zope, PropertyTools will provide you with handy data-storages. If you get the idea behind PropertyTools (and the object-factory-tool AbracadabraObject), you can create simple database-applications based on the ZMI within 5 minutes (of course you can create complex applications with PropertyTools too, I've done some complex apps like univerisity-course-management-systems with lots of relations etc. based on PropertyTools in the last months which run nicely in production).
If you spend just some additional minutes, you'll be done with a customized webapplication within 2 hours...:) Think of PropertyTools-Objects as lockable & sortable & workflowable ZMI-propertysheets which can be synchronized via a virtual class-attribute (object_type). Additionaly you can define different templates for rendering each virtual PropertyTools-class.
Creating a simple faq-database or a contact-database with PropertyTools can be done in minutes, not hours... I'll promise!
What's changed to 1.x?
- Added PropertyFile besides PropertyObject & PropertyFolder
- Added simple demo.zexp (a faq-database) to demonstrate how to use PropertyTools.
- Updated property-sheets to Zope2.7-templates.
- Refactored all code for managing the propertysheets into a new Mixin-Class PropertyTools.
- Added additional Top/Buttom-Buttons for ordering properties. Thanks to Steve McMahon for his patches!
- Fixed a bug in manage_changeProperties. Keyword-Arguments were broken for empty REQUESTs. Thanks to Abel Deuring!
- Removed support for published-attribute. Added support for simple workflows based on PythonScripts.
- Removed PropertyObjectDescription.
