[Grok-dev] Rendering a menu built in another module

[Simon Elbaz]

Hi,
here is an extract of menus.py:
-----
class Adamamenu(megrok.menu.Menu):
    grok.name('adamamenu')
    grok.title('Adamamenu')
    grok.description('')

class File(megrok.menu.SubMenuItem):
    grok.name('file')
    grok.title('File')
    grok.description('')

    megrok.menu.menuitem('adamamenu', icon=None, filter=None, order=1)

class RenderMenu(grok.View):
    grok.context(Menutest)

    def render(self):
         menu = getUtility(IBrowserMenu, 'adamamenu')
        return pformat(menu.getMenuItems(self.context, self.request))

     def render_menu(self):
         menu = getUtility(IBrowserMenu, 'adamamenu')
         return menu.getMenuItems(self.context, self.request)

-----
An extract of infos.py that tries to display the object Adamamenu:

import menus
....
class Logo(grok.Viewlet):
    grok.context(Infos)
    grok.viewletmanager(Header)
    grok.order(1)

    def display_menu(self):
        a_menu = getMultiAdapter((self.context, self.request), 
name='displaymenu')
        return a_menu.get_menu()

class DisplayMenu(RenderMenu):
    grok.context(Infos)

     def get_menu(self):
         return self.render_menu()

-----
Calling viewlet.display_menu in logo.pt displays an empty menu.

Regards,
Simon
