[Zope-dev] Referencing a python method from a product page template

[Coletti Massimo]

Hi,

I am defining a Zope product to create a new portlet, the portlet will
display some contents retrieved from a python module.

Under the product dir I have a file queryBFE.py, with a method
returnQuery(); the method returns a dictionary.

In the __init__.py at product level, there is an:
allow_module('Products.CorpQuotes.queryBFE')

The portlet page template is stored under a skin directory, properly
registered in CFM.

In the portlet text, I tried two syntaxes to call the method:

a)

<span tal:define="modulo here/queryBFE;
                            quotazione modulo/returnQuery;">

b)

<span tal:define="quotazione
modules/Products/CorpQuotes/queryBFE/returnQuery">
 
The first one returns:

Exception Type
    AttributeError
Exception Value
    queryBFE

The second one returns:

Tipo di errore
    AttributeError
Valore dell'errore
    queryBFE
