collective.monkeypatcherpanel 1.0.3

A Zope 2 control panel that shows monkey patches applied by collective.monkeypatcher

Introduction

collective.monkeypatcherpanel is the Zope 2 companion of Martin Aspeli’s collective.monkeypatcher component.

It just add a ZMI control panel that shows what monkey patches have been applied in case you cannot see the logs or grep through the ZCML of your Zope instance. Open the control panel of your Zope instance and then the “Monkey Patches” control panel.

Requirements

collective.monkeypatcherpanel has been developed and tested with Zope 2.10, Zope 2.11 and Zope 2.12. It may run on Zope 2.9 but this is untested and not supported unless you provide a patch that keeps the tests smiling.

Of course, we require collective.monkeypatcher. If you installed collective.monkeypatcherpanel with easy_install or a zc.buildout, you’re done.

Installation

In your buildout.cfg file, add this:

[instance]
recipe = colective.recipe.zope2instance
...
eggs =
    ...
    collective.monkeypatcherpanel
    ...
zcml =
    ...
    collective.monkeypatcherpanel
    ...

Re-run your buildout then browse as Manager to http://<zope-root>/@@add-monkeypatcherpanel to add the control panel in your Zope 2 instance.

Uninstall

Browse as Manager to http://<zope-root>/@@remove-monkeypatcherpanel then remove collective.monkeypatcherpanel from your buildout configuration or file system. Otherwise you’ll keep a broken object in your Zope 2 control panel.
