How to Add a File Dynamically??
Hi I am working on Zope-2.5.1 installed on Mandrake Linux 9.0. I am working currently on a small project that functions similar to the CMF but not completely covering all its features. I am basically trying to add a folder into the Zope Directory Structure and then trying to upload files into the newly added folder through my web interface (Not ZMI) While adding a new folder I would like to add 3 files by default into the folder (like when i add a folder object through ZMI) 1) index_html - (Page Template) 2) tree.py - (Python Script) 3) getPath.zsql - (ZSQL Method) My Backend is Postgresql 7.2.2. For adding Folders and Files intot the Zope Directory I am using External Methods which are functioning perfectly fine. But the main issue is that when I add a folder I want that three objects are added into the folder as well by default. a Python Script a Page Tenplate a ZSQL Method These three Objects should contain the code which is decided by me and is a constant in all folders like the code in index_html for all folders. The Zope folder Object accomplishes this ... when we add a folder if I select to add a User Interface .. a default page template is added called index_html. I also would like to do something exactly similar.Please help me out ... I m stuck with this for quite a few days now. Thanks for reading through the whole letter .. n thanks in advance for all Help.

You can use manageClone to do exactly this, example code, assuming this is in a python script: context.manage_clone(someobject,'new id to create in this place') context can of course be replaced with any folderish object, so: somefolder.manage_clone(someobject,'new id to create in this place') works in the same way hth Phil On Mon, 19 May 2003 17:58:33 +0530, Zope@Stylus <zope@stylusinc.net> wrote:

While adding a new folder I would like to add 3 files by default into the folder (like when i add a folder object through ZMI) 1) index_html - (Page Template) 2) tree.py - (Python Script) 3) getPath.zsql - (ZSQL Method)
BTW, are you sure that your task cannot be achieved with just one tree.py and one getPath.zsql, both placed in root folder? Maybe I'm wrong, but this design (multiple copies of slightly different _code_) looks really ugly. Just imagine that you have 10 000 folders with PythonScripts in each and you found a bug in your script's code...
Hi Phil , Thanks for yopur prompt reply . I am tryiong to resolve my problem but getting stuck again.Please help me out here. I am trying to use manage_clone to add a python script into a folder . I am adding a new folder intot the Zope directory Structure and then taking the context of the newly added Flder and adding a Python Script into it .This is similar to what Zope does when adding a folder and adding a Page template(index_html) into it. ============================================================= #My Python file which I am adding as an External Method in Zope ---------obj_Clone_Sep.py #from OFS import CopyContainer.manage_clone from App.Common import * import re import CopyContainer from Globals import REPLACEABLE, NOT_REPLACEABLE, UNIQUE def getCloneSEP(folderObj,id,cloneObj,strName): ob=folderObj._getOb(id) #getting the context of the folder if(strName != ''): ob.CopyContainer.manage_clone(cloneObj,strName) #I am cloning cloneObj and giving it a new name ============================================================ #This is the Error I get on trying to add a Clone Error Type: ImportError Error Value: No module named CopyContainer ============================================================= #My Python Script #I first add a folder #I then clone a Python Script into the Folder result = context.sis.Public.add_fol_sep(context ,i=str(textname),tit=str(textname)) #add_fol_sep is an External MEthod that ads a file into the current context (which is a folder in the Zope Directory Structure) resu = context.obj_Clone_Sep(context,id=str(textname),cloneObj=container.add_folder _sep,strName='add_folder_sep') #this is my call to External Python Script --------obj_Clone_Sep.py return resu If I try to add a Python file without importing the OFS Module I am asked to login to the ZMI for accessing the manage_clone method .This is happening inspite of my using External Methods. Where am I going wrong??

You might want to read how Python searches for modules and how Python packages work (--> Python Language Reference manual). "import CopyContainer" searches the current package for the module "CopyContainer" and then the directories listed in "sys.path" (initialized from "PYTHONPATH" and some default directories). Now, "CopyContainer" is not a module at all but a class defined in "OFS.CopySupport". You would access it via from OFS.CopySupport import CopyContainer Dieter PS: Your chances (to get responses) are better when you use one message for one problem with a concise problem description.
