collective.viewlet.links 0.2rc1

Installation

To use this package in a plone buildout add plone.app.z3cform to the eggs section and to the zcml slug for the zope instance:

[instance]
recipe = plone.recipe.zope2instance
...
eggs =
    ...
    collective.viewlet.links
    ...
zcml =
    collective.viewlet.links

Since collective.viewlet.links requires plone.app.z3cform the buildout is a little more complicating. See the developer buildout for an example.

• use plone.recipe.zope2install >= 3.0 (default fake-eggs)

• use same skip-fake-eggs

Contribute

Please submit bugs or feature requests to the issue tracker on the product page.

If you want to contribute to collective.viewlet.links, you can use the developer buildout.

See the README there for instructions on how to setup an instance and run the tests.

Initial idea and implementation

Harald Friessnegger (fRiSi)

added support for custom links for content objects, unittests, devbuildout and made links be stored in an annotation

2009/12/11 0.2rc1

Improved validation allows internal links and displays errors so users know which links did not validate.

• validation allows internal links again [Liz]

• include plone.app.z3cform so validation errors are displayed nicely [fRiSi]

• added reference to product page and a screenshot to the README. [fRiSi]

• added i18n infrastructure and german translations (see developer buildout README for information how to add new translations [fRiSi]

• fixed GS version number so it won’t get confused with package version (http://plone.org/support/forums/core#nabble-td2561549) [fRiSi]

2009/03/31 0.1rc2

• using safe_unicode in i18n messagefactories to make them work with non ascii characters too. (viewlet raised an error when used on folders with umlauts in their title) [fRiSi]

2009/03/30 0.1rc1

initial release

• validator that checks for correct syntax and valid urls [Liz]

• css for formatting links similar to portal colophon links [fRiSi]

• @@manage-links is able to edit links instead of needing to insert all of them again [fRiSi]

• cleanup package: removed configlet, widget and other stuff that’s not needed for a functioning product yet. all the stuff is still available for lizzy in http://dev.plone.org/collective/browser/collective.viewlet.links/branches/liz_newform [fRiSi]

• added custom permission for managing links [fRiSi]

• using List(value_type=Object(schema=ILink)) for storing links [fRiSi]

• enabled storing links on any folder as annotation

• added README with basic functional test that ensures defining links and displaying them in viewlet works [fRiSi]

• fixed tests for plone 3.1 and plone.z3cform 0.3

  (see nouri’s comment “Updated to work with 0.3 plone.z3cform and plone.app.z3cform” on http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/easy-forms-with-plone3) [fRiSi]
