Project description
PloneGlossary
By Ingeniweb.
Overview
PloneGlossary is a Plone content type that allows you to manage your own glossaries, propose definitions and search in one or more glossaries. Any word defined is instantly highlighted in the content of your site.
After adding a glossary, you can add your definitions to it. Definitions are a simple content type. Enter the word you want to define as the title, and the definition of the word in the text body. You can also specify variants of the word. For example if you define the word yoghurt, you may also want to allow the variants yogurt or yoghourt to be valid. Definitions will be highlighted (like an acronym) when they appear elsewhere in your site. (Also see the ploneglossary configlet.)
Once you have a large number of definitions in your glossary, you can browse the glossary by the means of an alphabetic index, or perform a search in the glossary. Each glossary has an integrated search engine, which is simply a ZCatalog.
Requirements
Plone 3.x or 4.x
Installation
Installing the latest release
Of course use zc.buildout. Just add this line to your buildout.cfg:
[instance]
recipe = plone.recipe.zope2instance
...
eggs =
...
Products.PloneGlossary
Installing a clone from github
We assume that your instance has been built with the plone3_buildout template for the paste script (otherwise you should change instructions accordingly):
$ cd $BUILDOUT_HOME/src $ git clone git@github.com:collective/Products.PloneGlossary.git $ cd Products.PloneGlossary $ python setup.py develop
Then edit your buildout.cfg:
[buildout]
...
develop =
...
src/Products.PloneGlossary
And change the [instance] section as described in Installing the latest release above.
Plone Unicode issue
If you use an old version of Plone (< 3.2), you’ll encounter this issue: using non ASCII characters in your glossary requires to change the default encoding of your Zope.
To do this, add a sitecustomize.py file to your $SOFTWARE_HOME with these two lines:
import sys
sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-8')
Then replace “utf-8” above with the value of the “default_charset” property in your “portal_properties/site_properties”.
Upgrades
Visit in ZMI the portal_setup object of your site, click Upgrades and select Products.PloneGlossary:default.
If you’re upgrading from PloneGlossary 1.2 or older you may force upgrades using “Show old upgrades”.
Configuring
Add a glossary portlet
Use the portlets manager to display a portlet of all definitions found in the displayed content.
zope.conf tweaks (optional)
PloneGlossary assumes that your site charset is UTF-8.
PloneGlossary views have a batch size of 30 terms. You might prefer another size.
If you need another batch size, you might append this to your zope.conf:
<product-config ploneglossary> batch-size 40 # Or any positive integer you might prefer. </product-config>
The Glossary configlet
Highlight content: if this option is chosen, all defined words are highlighted in the chosen content types (see further).
Description length : Choose the maximum length of the given definition in the highlights.
Description ellipsis: Choose an ellipsis. It is used in the highlight when the defined term exceeds the description length.
Not highlighted tags: Define the html tags in which definitions should not be highlighted. Default: h1, a, input, textarea
Allowed portal types: Select the portal types for which defined words are highlighted.
Use glossaries globally for all content?: When checked, all glossaries will be used to highlight terms globally for all of the site’s content. By unchecking this option, only the first glossary found while traversing upwards from the content is used.
General glossaries: Select glossaries used to check related terms of content.
Additional tools
A tool is installed by the installer. It provides a few configuration options (managed in the configlet) so that you can customize and manage your glossaries.
Switch highlighting on or off per object
Since version 1.5.0 there is support for switching the highlighting on of off per object. The default behaviour is still that the tool simply checks if the current object is in the allowed portal types that are set in the configuration. Version 1.5.0 introduces an interface IOptionalHighLight. The tool tries to adapt the current object to that interface. If this succeeds, the decision to highlight terms is given to the do_highlight method of the found adapter. The canonical implementation is in an optional package zest.ploneglossaryhighlight; when installed this gives an extra field in the settings tab of content items where you can switch highlighting on or off. See that package for more info.

Change log
1.7.1 (2014-11-07)
Add Products.PloneTestCase to the test extra requirements. [maurits]
Add an option in the Glossary control panel to highlight only the first word found on a page. This is useful in for example scientific documents where the same terms are used a lot, which can cause excessive highlighting. Disabled by default to keep default behaviour (highlight all terms found). [fredvd]
1.7 (2014-01-10)
If terms are not highlighted in the content area of a portal_type, do not show the definitions in a portlet either. [maurits]
Use the SearchableText indexer to see which text to highlight. Fall back to SearchableText. This supports dexterity, if an indexer is defined explicitly for a content type (like is done in plone.app.contenttypes) or dynamically with a behavior (collective.dexteritytextindexer). Note that it is better to not activate glossary highlighting for files, because then every time you view a file, the indexer will likely call an external program to convert the file to plain text. [maurits]
Do not require a ploneglossary.txt in our ploneglossarytool import step for importing settings. The glossary.xml file already functions as a flag file. The text file is only needed as flag file for our ploneglossary-reg import step. Fixes http://plone.org/products/ploneglossary/issues/8 [maurits]
1.6 (2013-08-26)
Change the condition for ploneglossary.css so it does not give an error when accessing the Dexterity control panel, which does not allow access to meta_type. Note that if you have customized PloneGlossary and kept the same meta_type but have given it a different portal_type, you will need to change the condition accordingly. Includes upgrade step. Fixes https://github.com/collective/Products.PloneGlossary/issues/3 [maurits
Removed use of linkOpaque.gif. It failed in Plone 4.3 and was not actually needed. Fixes https://github.com/collective/Products.PloneGlossary/issues/1 [maurits]
Removed relatedItems slot for Plone 4.3 compatibility [tom_gross]
1.5.3-FHNW1 (2012-11-22)
Removed support for other encodings as UTF-8 and simplified code. Encodings other than UTF-8 are currently not supported by Plone [tom_gross]
1.5.3 (2012-10-14)
Add Plone 4.3 compatibility by avoiding hard dependency on zope.app packages. [maurits]
Moved to https://github.com/collective/Products.PloneGlossary [maurits]
do catalog dispatching right [tom_gross]
added uninstall profile [micecchi]
1.5.2.3 (2012-04-03)
removed pointless blather logging messages [ajung]
1.5.2.1 (2012-03-13)
updated german translations [ajung]
1.5.2 (2012-01-22)
ensure that terms are sorted in descending term length in order to match terms with the same prefix properly (longest matches first) [ajung]
1.5.1 (2011-12-08)
italian translation added [giacomos]
1.5.0 (2011-11-24)
Added support for switching highlighting on or off per object. You need to write an adapter if you want to use this. See for example https://github.com/zestsoftware/zest.ploneglossaryhighlight [maurits]
PeP8, Pyflakes and i18n cleanup. [maurits]
fixed: Removing special chars from descriptions [ristow]
1.5.0-b3 (2011-07-15)
fix imports for Plone 4.1 [zworkb]

Condition to add CSS class “selected” to the Abcedaire didn’t match. http://plone.org/products/ploneglossary/issues/2 Thanks to Martin Stadler [glenfant]

Added interfaces
Added test environment
Don’t set to debug in config.py by default. [roeder] Otherwise there would be a bogus content type cluttering up portal_types.
Batch navigation in glossary view added [roeder]
Fixed highlighting : all glossaries are used if no glossary explicitly selected
Added czech translation (Lukas Zdych)
Added a patch for ZCTextIndex _apply_index method: search terms with synonymous found in global glossaries are replaced by an equivalent “OR”. By default this is done only for ‘SearchableText’ . This patch is disabled by default (see config.py). [bmathieu]
Fill portlet by template construct instead of javascript [bmathieu]
