[Zope] session-timeout-minutes value in runtime Zope

[Peter Bengtsson]

Thanks but I solved it using::

  from App.config import getConfiguration
  conf = getConfiguration()
  setattr(MyProductClass, 'SESSION_TIMEOUT_MINUTES',
          conf.session_timeout_minutes)

Now I can use this::

class MyProductClass:
     def getLoggedInSecurelyMinutesLeft(self):
         """ return how many minutes there is left on the securely
         logged in session. """
         ts = self.get_session(SESSIONKEY_USER_SECURE_TIMESTAMP, None)
         if ts is None:
             return 0
         minutes = self.SESSION_TIMEOUT_MINUTES - (time.time() - ts) / 60
         return int(minutes)
