[Zope-CMF] Setting default local permissions in a Python product?

[Florent Guillaume]

You need to use manage_permissions.

At the place where your newly created object is put into the ZODB,
usually in the addMyProduct or manage_addMyProduct method, do something
like the following (using Document as an example):

def addDocument(self, id, title='', description='', text_format='',
                text=''):
    """ Add a Document """
    o = Document(id, title, description, text_format, text)
    self._setObject(id,o)
    o = self._getOb(id) # get a wrapped object
    o.manage_permissions('View', ['Manager'], acquire=0)
    o.manage_permissions('Access contents information', ['Manager'],
                         acquire=0)
