Hi John, Please see http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/01/xmlrpc/index.html for information about using XML-RPC with Zope. - C ----- Original Message ----- From: <jr@i-bucks.com> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Monday, June 18, 2001 10:18 PM Subject: [Zope] calling zope
I am new to zope. I am looking for an application server.
I want to know if I can call zope objects and methods from a script run OUTSIDE of zope (say python, to make it easy). Is this possible? So far, all the API/call information that I have found either relates to calling system functions (APIs) from inside methods, or calling external methods. Nothing about calling the app server from an external program.
I get the impression that I have to execute an http call, and clumsily parse the output. Is this true, or is there something that I have overlooked in the output?
The types of calls that I need to make is to search for objects with certain properties, create new objects, and update old objects. I need to retrieve object properties, and execute methods. I need to have basic security enforced (userid identification or userid/password).
The reason why is that it is contractually necessary to provide an api
into
the server.
Thanks,
jr John Riehl
