[Zope3-Users] z3c:layout - not working with z3c.form.EditForm

[kevin gill]

I am having a problem configuring a layout template. It works with
z3c.form.DisplayForm but not with z3c.form.EditForm.

formdemo works fine for me. It seems to use an identical approach.

Thanks, Kevin

Here is the details to recreate the problem:

http://localhost:8080/++skin++MySkin/@@index.html does not use the template.

http://localhost:8080/++skin++MySkin/@@index2.html uses the template.

I added these packages (setup.py):

    'z3c.pagelet',
    'z3c.layer',
    'z3c.form',
    'z3c.formui',

I configured these packages:

  <!-- Add your own component registrations here -->
  <include package="zope.viewlet" file="meta.zcml"/>
  <include package="zope.contentprovider" />
  <include package="zope.viewlet" />

  <include package="z3c.form" file="meta.zcml" />
  <include package="z3c.macro" file="meta.zcml" />
  <include package="z3c.pagelet" file="meta.zcml" />
  <include package="z3c.template" file="meta.zcml" />

  <include package="z3c.form" />
  <include package="z3c.formui" />

  <include package="z3c.layer.pagelet"/>
  <include package="z3c.macro" />
  <include package="z3c.pagelet"/>

I created a new layer (layer.py):

    from z3c.form.interfaces import IFormLayer
    from z3c.layer.pagelet import IPageletBrowserLayer

    class IMyBrowserLayer(IFormLayer, IPageletBrowserLayer):
        pass

And a new skin (skin.py):

    import z3c.formui.interfaces
    import layer

    class IMyBrowserSkin(z3c.formui.interfaces.IDivFormLayer,
                           layer.IMyBrowserLayer):
       pass

I registered the above:

    <interface
        interface=".layer.IMyBrowserLayer"
        type="zope.publisher.interfaces.browser.IBrowserSkinType"
        />

    <interface
        interface=".skin.IMyBrowserSkin"
        type="zope.publisher.interfaces.browser.IBrowserSkinType"
        name="MySkin"
        />

I create a layout (template.pt):

    <h1>TEMPLATE</h1>
    <tal:block replace="structure provider:pagelet" />

I register it:

    <z3c:layout
        for="*"
        layer=".layer.IMyBrowserLayer"
        template="template.pt"
        />

I create two new pages (browser.py):

    from z3c.form import form

    class IndexForm(form.EditForm):
        pass

    class IndexForm2(form.DisplayForm):
        pass

I match these with templates (index.pt and index2.pt):

    index.pt

    index2.pt

I register the new views:

   <z3c:pagelet
        name="index.html"
        for="*"
        permission="zope.Public"
        layer=".layer.IMyBrowserLayer"
        class=".browser.IndexForm"
        />

    <z3c:template
        template="index.pt"
        for=".browser.IndexForm"
        layer=".layer.IMyBrowserLayer"
        />

    <z3c:pagelet
        name="index2.html"
        for="*"
        permission="zope.Public"
        layer=".layer.IMyBrowserLayer"
        class=".browser.IndexForm2"
        />

    <z3c:template
        template="index2.pt"
        for=".browser.IndexForm2"
        layer=".layer.IMyBrowserLayer"
        />
