jfmoxleyif i want a schema for a class attribute "1B", how do i define it?  "1B = zope.schema.float(" will give me a syntax error obviously03:33
jfmoxleyi can set the atttribute with setattr(object, "1B", -5), but i'm not sure how to retrieve it now... object.1B gives an error, too03:34
jfmoxleyi'm assuming i just need to use an underscore, but i wanted to see if that was the proper way03:35

srichterthat's a Python thing03:50
srichteractually, I am sure it is forbidden in most langauges03:50

drzoltron_I've got a BrowserView which is called by a template. Is it possible to render a different template than the one defined in the zcml ?11:18
drzoltron_(very cryptic question ;))11:18
philiKONjust register the same class twice, each with a different template11:19
philiKONyou can conveniently use the <browser:pages> directive11:19
drzoltron_ahh11:19
drzoltron_and how do I tell the publisher which to render ?11:19
philiKONthey have different names :)11:20

roymI need a hook function to set up stuff after an object has been "located".12:33
romanofskithought that this is now handled by events12:34
romanofskisomething like ObjectAddedEvent, if I remember correctly12:34

VolpeI've set a page to permission="zope.Public" but when I try to access the page, I can't view it unless I authenticate.12:52
VolpeAny ideas?12:52
drzoltron_can i build the metal:use-macro"foo/loo/moo" string dynamically ?12:54
VolpeI think so, you can in zope 2 :)12:54
drzoltron_Volpe: how does that work, I tried with a $var but z3 didn't want it ..12:55
*** Aiste has joined #zope3-dev12:55
VolpeYou can use TALES, i.e "define macro <expression>" then use-macro="macro" can't you?12:55
drzoltron_Volpe: I tried this one : tal:define="absalon_viewmacro string:bog_macro;"12:56
drzoltron_<div metal:use-macro="context/$absalon_viewmacro/macros/absaloncontent">12:56
VolpePerhaps write a view method that will return the whole macro rather than using a $var12:57
*** mgedmin has joined #zope3-dev12:58
VolpeI'm a newb at z3 though, so don't count to much on what I say :-)12:58
drzoltron_hmm :)12:58
drzoltron_quite different than z3 but very cool12:58
VolpeThat's what I think, z3 is what z2 should have been :-)   If I could just figure out zcml.12:59
VolpeSo no one here knows why a page set to zope.Public could be requesting permission? :\13:00
Volpeauthentication*13:00
d2mdrzoltron_: this was always <div metal:use-macro="context/?absalon_viewmacro/macros/absaloncontent">13:01
drzoltron_d2m: just found out :)13:01
drzoltron_got a traversal error though, do I have to register the .pt with the macro as a resource or a page ?13:01
d2mdrzoltron_: i think you will need to pass the correct macroname too13:02
drzoltron_well that should be absaloncontent in my case13:03
*** mkerrin has joined #zope3-dev13:04
VolpeHow is it possible, that I can declare a page public, that makes no context calls, no view calls no anything (just static html) and I have to authenticate before viewing it ???13:06

romanofskiI'm a bit stuck here... my template.pt uses: view context/@@view_get_menu/zmi_views for example14:28
romanofskiI don't know, what "zmi_views" is in this context14:28
romanofskiview_get_menu is registered via a browser:page ZCML directive ... but zmi_views ...14:29
romanofskioh.. seems like a parameter for the BrowserMenu14:30
*** MrTopf has joined #zope3-dev14:38
srichterromanofski: zmi_views is the menu name14:44
romanofskiyeh thanks... but I don't know how I'm able to register a view class for my "template" - the view is always my contents view for the folder, and now I'm trying to register a view class with a browser:page14:46
romanofskiand try to access it via tal:define="view context/@@viewclass"14:46
romanofskibut fails with a system error currently14:46
srichterhave you read the books?14:47
srichterthey discuss a lot of this topic14:47
romanofskihm... yes14:47
romanofskibut they only describe the case, where you add a view for a class14:48
romanofskino... sorry.. i'm puzzled14:48
srichterso  what do you want to do then?14:49
romanofskiin short... a customized navigation14:50
romanofskiI have my customized template and a macros template14:50
romanofskihold in it's own skin14:51
romanofskiand now I want to create my own (global) navigation14:51
romanofskiso I checked the books and the other templates how they get the logic out of the view classes14:53

romanofskiah cool - thanks srichter15:01
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o srichter15:02
bavarianI'm trying to get a simple user registration feature working. There are several open questions I have:15:11
bavarianMost important: Due to the nature of a user registration system anonymous users most be able to create a user at some point in the process.15:12
bavarianIn Zope2 I would probably have done one of two things, either use a proxy role or give the users access to a method in the trusted code (Python) layer that creates the user.15:13
bavarianIt seems that in Zope3 this is not possible as the checks for __setitem__ etc. are even enforced if they are not called directly, but from a method in a view support class or so.15:14
bavarianAm I missing something here?15:14
*** zbir has quit IRC15:16
bavarianTo rephrase a bit, I want an anonymous user to be able to do an action (create a user) under very special circumstances (he has completed the registration process), but not want him to have the permissions/roles needed for creating the user in general (e.g. via the ZMI).15:16
srichterI would write a trusted adapter that does this for you15:17
srichtertrusted adapter's context object is not security proxied15:18
srichterso you are responsible for protecting the adapter properly15:18
bavarianI see. That makes sense.15:19
bavarianThe other thing that makes things complicated is that the Pluggable Authentication stuff only exposes interfaces for authenticating, not for user management.15:20
agroszerThere is the principalfolder15:21
romanofskisrichter: it worked the whole time... I just used the expression inside a "string:" for testing purposes and just overlooked my stupid error15:21
bavariansrichter: So I have to do things like "userFolder = principals()['PrincipalFolder']", where I have to know the name of the folder.15:22
agroszersrichter: principalfolder can be accessed by code? I think so15:22
*** stub has joined #zope3-dev15:23
*** deo has joined #zope3-dev15:23
bavariansrichter: What I'd like to see is being able to just call a generic user management interface without having to know the internals of the authentication system used.15:23
srichterbavarian: because it is only supposed to do authentication; user management is not in its scope15:23
srichteryou should check out SchoolTool15:24
srichterST has a user management component and the auth utility stuff is just a hook into it15:24
bavarianOk, I'll have a look at it.15:25
srichterromanofski: ok, cool15:25
romanofski:)15:25
srichterbavarian: eek, as far as I know the principal folder is just a utility that you can look up15:26
srichterhave you read zope.app.authentication/README.txt?15:26
agroszerWhat I thought is, if a properly registered principalfolder could be managed by code, then it is not necessary to write a complete authentication15:27
agroszerjust the interface between PF and my 'persons'15:27
bavariansrichter: I'll have to check. But even if it is, there is no defined interface for adding/managing a user. It's only using the standard interfaces from IContainer, which IMO are too generic for user management.15:27
srichterright, Zope 3 has not committed to one yet, if it ever will15:28
srichterI think a user management API is a pretty specific problem to CMS15:28
srichterI think that Z3ECM might have an answer for that15:29
*** tiredbones has joined #zope3-dev15:29
bavarianThis is definitely not a CMS thing. It's at least a web app thing, if not even a general "app that uses credentials to connect to a server" thing. Rather generic ...15:30
srichterwell, write a proposal, see what people think15:31
bavarianDo you have a macro for that answer? ;-) I've heard it rather often ...15:32
srichteror better, write a package for people to play with15:32
agroszerI need that package also :-)15:32
srichterno, but we are a proiposal driven project, so it should be my standard answer15:32
srichterespecially if it is a case of my opinion versus someone elses15:33
srichterwithout the opinion of other parties, it will be a deadlock anyways15:33
*** drzoltron_ has quit IRC15:34
agroszerI'd like to write the proposal, how-to?15:37
agroszerI checked Zope3Proposals on zope.org, do I need some permission there?15:38
d2mIIRC everyone can create new wikipages, you only need a special role to edit or comment on pages15:39
srichterd2m: can you give adam that role. please?15:41
*** roym has joined #zope3-dev15:41
d2magroszer: is this your zope.org menenr-id ?15:41
srichterd2m: he should have it for the entire wiki; same with bavarian15:41
roymI have registered an event handler for an IObjectAddedEvent.  I find15:41
roymthat when an object is added to a container via the adding view (/+),15:41
roymthe input values on the form are not available in the object at the15:41
roymtime of the event firing. Is this by design? What event can I wait15:41
roymfor that will fire after the object properties are set?15:41

benjiright16:10
romanofskibenji: you know that the mozilla project is working on python support16:10
romanofski?16:10
romanofskiso you can use python as a scripting language just like JavaScript16:10
benjiromanofski, yep, which is very cool16:10
romanofskiyeah16:10
benji9 out of 10 users still won't have clilent-side python though :(16:11
romanofskisure, it won't work where IE should be supported... but... cool16:11
romanofskiyey16:11
efgebenji: @clientside seems awesome, finally I could program in javascript :)16:12
benjithis isn't really for building large systems in JS, it's about providing decent syntax for Python programmers to write small JS snippets16:12

roymfolks: inside of a class, can I specify an attribute to be both a FieldProperty and a "property" [using the property(getter,setter) syntax] or does one override the other?17:17
*** hdima has quit IRC17:17
*** natea has joined #zope3-dev17:25
roymIn other words, I have:17:26
roymclass N:17:26
roym  p = FieldProperty(IXX['somep'])17:26
roym  def getP(self): ...17:26
roym  def setP(self,p): ...17:26
roym  p = property(getP,setP) # does this override the FieldProperty?17:26
*** bradb has joined #zope3-dev17:28
benjiroym, yep, you rebind p to something different17:30
benjiIf I understood what FieldProperties were, I could probably tell you how to make it work :)17:32
roymI guess this means there is no reasonable way to specify that the property conforms to an interface and have it be really a pair of methods in action.17:33
benjiroym, I don't see why not, if you have an interface that specifies an attribute, and you implement that attribute as a property that acts appropriately, then you've fulfilled the contract17:34
andresroym, if you specify the FieldProperty in the interface it should work.17:34
andresAt least it does here.17:34
roymso if I say that Object O implements Interface I, then I don't need to further specify FieldProperty on any attributes?17:36
bavarianDoes anybody know details about the encoding handling of the queuedDelivery mailer?17:36
roymThe real question (as benji suggests) is what does the FieldProperty decl in a class do?17:37
bavarianIt seems that it does not handle unicode on its own :-(17:37
*** natea has quit IRC17:38
agroszerroym: I think it also checks the attribute according to the interface schema17:38
bavarianYep, the interface says: "message is a byte string that contains both headers and body formatted according to RFC 2822."17:40
agroszerroym: check out zope.schema17:41
bavarianSo I'll probably have to port all my mail handling stuff from KONTENTOR to Zope3.17:41
*** Aiste has quit IRC17:43
roymagroszer: thanks.17:44
roymAn unrelated question: Are any events fired when you change field values on an object in @@edit.html view in zmi?17:45

srichterChrisW: I prefer testbrowser above Selenium (it's Python)17:52
srichterChrisW: no, it is new for 3.2 and 2.917:52
ChrisWoh :-S17:52
ChrisWwhat's the minimum i need to check out to use it?17:53
srichterif you use Python 2.4, then you only need testbroser17:53
srichterit only weakly depends on zope.interface17:53
ChrisWcool, might well give it a go right now17:54
ChrisWdocs?17:54
srichterwhen using it with Zope3, a normal Zope 3 environment should be ok17:54
ChrisWexamples?17:54

* ChrisW will be using it standalone to do some scalability testing for a Zope 2 app17:54
ChrisWwell an sort-of-Plohn-app17:54
srichtertestbowser also comes with basic performance testing capabilities17:55
srichteryou can test the timing of a request17:55
srichter(in terms of pystones, of course)17:55

ChrisWI just want ms17:55
ChrisWcan i get that>17:55
ChrisW?17:55
*** faassen has joined #zope3-dev17:55
srichterwell, Pystones is better, because it is machine independent17:55
ChrisW*shrugs*17:56
srichterI guess you can look at the code and just remove the pystone conversion17:56
ChrisWthis is all for a specific project running on a specific platform17:56
ChrisWcool17:56
ChrisWI guess the main thing that makes me nervous is "what is a pystone?"17:56
srichterit is a well defined set of operations17:57
srichterso you could figure out what a pystone is in ms on your machine17:57
ChrisW*chuckles*17:57
ChrisWmind if I just add an "output in ms" option to testbrowser?17:57
srichterno, I think this would be fine17:58
ChrisW(if I can, that is, I'm not sure I'll have enough zen...)17:58
ChrisWdoes testbrowser have unit tests?17:58
srichterno, because the functional test (README.txt) serves as unit test in this case ;-)17:58
ChrisWah, cool, so I can play with freedom on the timing front ;-)17:59
ChrisWcool17:59
ChrisW*sigh*17:59
ChrisWnow I just have the firewall from hell to contend with17:59

*** zagy has quit IRC18:07
srichterok, I think all you need to do is a create a top level zope dir and put testbrowser in it18:07
srichterChrisW: benji has recently tried to make testbrowser standalone, so he might be a better contact :-)18:07
ChrisWdo I need a zope.__init__.py?18:07

ChrisWI am having a good day :-)18:08
ChrisW(well, apart from limi provoking me to flame Plohn on zope-cmf@zope.org :S)18:08
benjiChrisW, testbrowser currently keeps up with time of request in seconds, I think it'd be a good idea to change that to time in ms, then you can use it18:08
ChrisWbenji: If I got a plain Python2.4 setup, no Zope 3, what's the best way to start playing with TestBrowser?18:08
ChrisWs/ms all the same to me ;-)18:08
benjiwell, it's in integer seconds, so less than 1 second requests aren't handled with much grace :)18:09
*** newnick has joined #zope3-dev18:09
benjiyou get zope.testbrowser from the cheeseshop: http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi?:action=display&name=zope.testbrowser18:09
benjiit has no external dependencies (I hope :))18:09
ChrisWeh?18:10
ChrisWhow does cheeseshop work?18:10
benjijust follow the link and then look for the download URL18:10
benjiit just points to a tgz, unpack and run setup.py18:10
benjioh, and testbrowser does use fractional seconds for timing, so you should be good to go there18:11
ChrisWwell, the problem is that the response time is currently minutes ;-)18:11
ChrisW*sigh*18:12
ChrisWPlohn sux18:12
srichterLOL18:12
ChrisWactually, in fairness, this isn't Plohn's fault18:12

ChrisW(ie: 10 x 10Mb attachment...)18:12
ChrisWbenji: what is cheeseshop? how do I use it for my own packages? how do I find out more about it?18:13

benjiChrisW, yep, it's pretty beta at the moment, but see http://svn.zope.org/zope.testrecorder/trunk/18:22
benjiit lets you record a sequence of events in the browser and generates a testbrowser or selenium test from them18:23

*** fdrake has joined #zope3-dev18:29
* ChrisW would have thought it was just a helpder method to add to the browser class18:29
ChrisWI wanna do:18:29
benjitoo many helpers are unhelpfull18:29
ChrisWbrowser.addBasicAuth('username','password')18:29
srichterTestBrowser should not do more than a regular browser18:29
srichterhave a function that computes the header18:29
ChrisWwell, regular browsers do basic auth...18:29
ChrisWwhy force people to jump through more hoops?18:30
ChrisWand end up with ever framework implementing a different addBasicAuth method?18:30
ChrisWseems silly to me18:30
benjiI don't see this as too much of  a burden: browser.addHeader('Authorization', 'Basic mgr:mgrpw')18:30
ChrisWwell, don't you have to encoded that password?18:30
benjino need for a method, just set the header18:30
benjino18:30
ChrisWwhy not?18:30
srichterbenji: (note that a plain username and assword only work for the publisher handler)18:30
benjijust like non testbrowser functional tests, it does it for you18:30
benjiright, srichter18:31
srichterbenji: (for a real website, you have to create the MD5 hash)18:31
benjiyep18:31
ChrisWexactly18:31
ChrisWand I'm using a real website here ;-)18:31
ChrisWhence my desire for an addBasicAuth method18:31
ChrisWwhich encapsulates this often-needed functionality ;-)18:31
benjihmm, I'm -0 on it, but wouldn't kill anyone over it18:32

ChrisWand isn't it b64, not md5?18:33
benjiI think it's both18:34

srichtercheck out zope.app.apidoc.static I do it there18:34

agroszermy small problem is that they don't seem to have time23:25
agroszerbut that's an other story23:25
srichterbenji: I found it; when running z3.py we are not removing the "." dir from the path23:26
agroszerwould it bother that much if the wfmc package would be persistent?23:28
srichterwell, if the zope.wfmc package would be persistent you definitely need to write a proposal23:29
srichterfor Z3ECM I do not know23:29
benjisorry, srichter, was talking to Jim, good, glad you found it :)23:30
srichterbenji: I think eventually tutorials must be based on DocFileSuite objects23:32
srichterbecause special global variables and options might be expected23:32
benjiinteresting23:32
agroszerok, I'll try to do subclassing way23:33
agroszerif that's too hard I'll write a proposal23:34
srichterok23:34
srichteragroszer: Note that I think subclassing is the way to go23:34
srichterbecause you probably want  different behavior for the persistent version eventually23:35
agroszerI believe in you, you are the expert  :-)23:35
agroszerIf the subclassing way needs some hooks in wfmc, e.g. in xpdl as it creates the definition,23:37
agroszerthese are ok?23:37
srichteryeah, we could abstract that code23:38
srichter(note that zope.wfmc does not use XPDL yet)23:38
agroszerok, then23:40
agroszerthat's it for today23:40
agroszergood night23:40
