Features

• store a json object with all blocks informations (data and order)

• restapi serializer/deserializer to manage internal links

• registered custom indexer for collective.dexteritytextindexer (if installed)

How to use

Import it and use as a normal field:

from collective.volto.blocksfield.field import BlocksField

class IMySchema(Interface):

    my_field = BlocksField(
        title="A field with blocks",
    )

Upgrade to 2.2.0

From 2.2.0 version, objects with BlocksField are marked with a marker interface and blocks are indexed in block_types index.

To update contents already created in the site, you need to create an updgrade-step or call “@@mark_contents_and_reindex” view.

Install collective.volto.blocksfield by adding it to your buildout:

[buildout]

...

eggs =
    collective.volto.blocksfield

and then running bin/buildout
