Just thought of a possible solution to the last problem... add a method to the object, named title_of_parent, which returns the parent's title. Tell the catalog to index title_of_parent. Take a vacation. Makes sense? Good solution? Comments? Itai Tavor wrote:
Hi,
I can't figure out how to access an object found by a catalog search:
<dtml-let obj="Catalog.getobject(data_record_id_, REQUEST)"> &dtml-obj; </dtml-let>
displays the object instance ( <DTMLDocument instance at xxxxxxx> ). But:
<dtml-with "Catalog.getobject(data_record_id_, REQUEST)"> &dtml-title; </dtml-with>
returns Unahthorized. Why?
A related question: Instead of accessing the object, like I try to do above, I guess I can plug in a brain that will get whatever I need from the object and add it to the data record. Is there a simple example anywhere of how to implement a simple pluggabale brain for a catalog that will do this?
And one more question: The reason I need to do all this is that my find page needs to show the titles of the containers of the found object, two levels up. I can't index these titles in the catalog, because indexing 'title' gets the title of the object, and the catalog can't be told to index "PARENTS[1].title" (or can it?). Is it possible somehow for a catalog aware object to add properties to its entry in the catalog?
BTW, my catalog aware objects are Python products, not ZClasses, if that makes a difference.
