I went through the same motions as you in Zope2.12 trying to use Phillkon's book as a guide. I think I ran into the same problem as you. The key is in the package five.localsitemanager. My Site Interface is nothing. class IMySite(Interface): """My Site"" In my site.py I have the following. ... from five.localsitemanager import make_objectmanager_site ... class MySite(Folder): implements(IMySite) def __init__(self, id): setHooks() Folder.__init__(self, id='Mine') make_objectmanager_site(self) <----- key to making a OFS folder a site setSite(self) notify(NewMySiteEvent(self) After that you can treat your MySite OFS Folder like a site. Register utilities with it, setHooks, and setSite. Hope this helps, - Jim On Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 2:40 AM, Roberto Allende <rover@menttes.com> wrote:
Hello
Following example 18.3.1 and 18.3.2 from phillkon's book, i'm trying to define a MySite class in Zope 2.12, which look like this:
class IMySite(IPossibleSite, IContainer): """ """ id = ASCIILine( ... name = TextLine( ...
class MySite(SiteManagerContainer, BTreeContainer): implements(IMySite)
So far so good, i've an interface and a class extending SiteManagerContainer and BTreeContainer. Problem becomes when i want to define the add form. If i'm not wrong, I cannot use the same machinery as zope3, so i was trying to use formlib:
class MySiteAddForm(AddForm): form_fields=form.Fields(IListo)
And i doesn't work. The error i'm getting is:
NotImplementedError: concrete classes must implement create() or createAndAdd()
I was looking info about them but i wonder i'm running with a conceptual gap here, because this is the same problem i had to define MySite inheriting from Folder. The same problem happened there, i was able to define the class but when i needed the form i wasn't able to use formlib and i used old-zope2-like-code. Probably i could try to do smt like that, but i'm very curious to see how can i use formlib in such cases.
The question then is, is it possible or would it make sense to do something like this ?. Do you know about a sample code that could be helpful ?.
Any comment or hint would be very appreciated.
Kind Regards r.
