Changelog
*********

0.4 (2009-05-06)
----------------

- remove workflow for FormSilverpopAdapter [hplocher]

- add functionality to define a custom 'field_id' ->
'silverpop_column_name' mapping [hplocher]

- add a Mapping grid to the FormSilverPopAdapter:
(id(readonly), title(readonly), silverpop api key)
for configuring the mapping [hplocher]

- requires DataGridField [hplocher]

0.3 (2009-04-08)
----------------

- New policy: filter data fields by prefix. We're only using field names which
start with COLUMN_NAME_PREFIX ("silverpop_"). This saves us from having field
names which clash with plone IDs. Additionally, we've defined a mapping
table for column names which are required verbatim as of the SilverPop API --
COLUMN_MAPPING.

Introduction
************

This test shows how a PFG Form folder is added. We
also add our custom **FormSilverpopAdapter**, configure
it and show how the actual sent XML looks.

Setup
-----

First, we must perform some setup. We use the testbrowser that is shipped
with Five, as this provides proper Zope 2 integration. Most of the
documentation, though, is in the underlying zope.testbrower package.

>>> from Products.Five.testbrowser import Browser
>>> browser = Browser()
>>> portal_url = self.portal.absolute_url()

The following is useful when writing and debugging testbrowser tests. It lets
us see all error messages in the error_log.

>>> self.portal.error_log._ignored_exceptions = ()

With that in place, we can go to the portal front page and log in. We will
do this using the default user from PloneTestCase:

>>> from Products.PloneTestCase.setup import portal_owner, default_password

>>> browser.open(portal_url)

We have the login portlet, so let's use that.

>>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_name').value = portal_owner
>>> browser.getControl(name='__ac_password').value = default_password
>>> browser.getControl(name='submit').click()

Here, we set the value of the fields on the login form and then simulate a
submit click.

We also set the roles we want to have::
>>> self.setRoles(['Member', 'Manager'])

We monkeypatch urllib to prohibit making requests to silverpop and get test output
(url, headers, data).


We use a little helper function to get pretty output::

>>> import textwrap
>>> def print_lines(text, maxwidth=70):
... lines = textwrap.wrap(text,maxwidth)
... for line in lines:
... print line


We create a Fake class to be returned by urlib2.urlopen::

>>> class Fake(object):
... def read(self): return ""

In our test method, we print request's url, headers, data (we decode
the urlencoded data for the test) and
return a Fake object::

>>> import cgi
>>> def test_urlopen(req):
... print_lines(str(req.get_full_url()))
... print_lines(str(req.headers))
... print_lines(dict(cgi.parse_qsl(req.data))['xml'])
... return Fake()
>>> import urllib2

Finally we patch urllib2.urlopen::

>>> urllib2.urlopen = test_urlopen

We also define a FakeRequest class to define our request
containing just a form::

>>> class FakeRequest(dict):
... def __init__(self, **kwargs):
... self.form = kwargs

Adding content
--------------

Add a new Form Folder::

>>> browser.getLink('Form Folder').click()
>>> browser.getControl('Title').value = 'testform'
>>> browser.getControl('Save').click()

>>> 'testform' in browser.contents
True

Go to the new Form Folder:

>>> browser.getLink('testform').click()


We use the 'Add new' menu to add a new content item.

>>> browser.getLink('Add new').click()

Then we select the type of item we want to add. In this case we select
'FormSilverpopAdapter' and click the 'Add' button to get to the add form.

>>> browser.getControl('FormSilverpopAdapter').click()
>>> browser.getControl(name='form.button.Add').click()
>>> 'FormSilverpopAdapter' in browser.contents
True

Now we fill the form and submit it.

>>> browser.getControl(name='title').value = 'testadapter'
>>> browser.getControl('Silverpop API URL').value = 'http://url.com'
>>> browser.getControl('Silverpop List Id').value = '1'
>>> browser.getControl('Save').click()
>>> 'Changes saved' in browser.contents
True

We added a new 'FormSilverpopAdapter' content item to the testform.

onSuccess
---------

On submit of the form, the onSuccess method of
our FormSilverpopAdapter will be called.

For this test, we are going to create some fields manually, so we need the classes::

>>> from Products.PloneFormGen.content.fields import FGStringField, FGBooleanField

We also want to access our testadapter directly::

>>> self.testadapter = self.portal.testform.testadapter

Field Name Policy
+++++++++++++++++

We enforce the following policies regarding the field names which we send to
SilverPop via their API:

- field names MUST start with a common perfix: "silverpop\_"
- there must be one field "silverpop_email"

We have a transformation function which does that::

>>> from collective.pfg.silverpop.utilities import transform_column_name
>>> transform_column_name("silverpop_foo")
'foo'
>>> transform_column_name("no_prefix") is None
True

There's one special column name which is enforced to comply with the API from
SilverPop -- `email` is transformed to `EMAIL`::

>>> transform_column_name("silverpop_email")
'EMAIL'

CONFIRMATION
++++++++++++

Newsletter forms usually contain some confirmation field (yes I want to get the newsletter).
First we set up some fields to use later::

>>> email = FGStringField('silverpop_email')
>>> email.setId('silverpop_email')
>>> confirm = FGBooleanField('silverpop_confirm')
>>> confirm.setId('silverpop_confirm')

If the form doesn't contain a field with id **confirm**,
we just make a request to silverpop.

We set up the fields, here we use only one field EMAIL::

>>> fields = [email,]

We also set up a minimal request, containing the user's input::

>>> request = FakeRequest(silverpop_email='x@x.com')

We now call the adapter's onSuccess method::

>>> self.testadapter.onSuccess(fields,request)
http://url.com
{'Content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8'}
<Envelope><Body><AddRecipient><LIST_ID>1</LIST_ID><CREATED_FROM>2</CRE
ATED_FROM><UPDATE_IF_FOUND>true</UPDATE_IF_FOUND><COLUMN><NAME>EMAIL</
NAME><VALUE>x@x.com</VALUE></COLUMN></AddRecipient></Body></Envelope>

USER DEFINED MAPPING
++++++++++++++++++++

We offer the ability, to define a mapping from
field ids to Silverpop API Keys::

>>> self.testform = self.portal.testform

For this test we create some fields inside our form.

First, we create fields which should be regarded by our 'FormSilverpopAdapter'.

The special 'sivlerpop_email' field (this field has a fixed mapping)::

>>> self.testform.invokeFactory('FormStringField', 'silverpop_email', title='Email')
'silverpop_email'

A field to insert a name::

>>> self.testform.invokeFactory('FormStringField', 'silverpop_name', title='Name')
'silverpop_name'

We also create a misc field, which shouldn't be regarded, although
it is in the same form::

>>> self.testform.invokeFactory('FormStringField', 'credits_to_admin', title='Give your credits to the admin of the site')
'credits_to_admin'


NO MAPPING
..........

First, we check what happens when we don't change the mapping.

We go to the 'FormSilverpopAdapter' s edit form::

>>> browser.open(portal_url+'/testform/testadapter/edit')

The current mapping should only contain one record
(with columns id, title, silverpop api key),
so we check all columns.

id::

>>> browser.getControl(name='mapping.id:records').value
'silverpop_name'

title::

>>> browser.getControl(name='mapping.title:records').value
'Name'

silverpop api key::

>>> browser.getControl(name='mapping.silverpop api key:records', index=0).value
''

We set up the list of fields::

>>> fields = [self.testform.silverpop_email, self.testform.silverpop_name, self.testform.credits_to_admin,]

We set up a minimal request, containing the user's input::

>>> request = FakeRequest(silverpop_email='x@x.com', silverpop_name='Hans', credits_to_admin='I like the high availability')

We now call the adapter's onSuccess method::

>>> self.testadapter.onSuccess(fields,request)
http://url.com
{'Content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8'}
<Envelope><Body><AddRecipient><LIST_ID>1</LIST_ID><CREATED_FROM>2</CRE
ATED_FROM><UPDATE_IF_FOUND>true</UPDATE_IF_FOUND><COLUMN><NAME>name</N
AME><VALUE>Hans</VALUE></COLUMN><COLUMN><NAME>EMAIL</NAME><VALUE>x@x.c
om</VALUE></COLUMN></AddRecipient></Body></Envelope>


CUSTOM MAPPING
..............

Now, we check what happens when we change
the mapping.
We want to use 'FIRST NAME' as COLUMN
for silverpop, for the 'silverpop_name'
field.

We go to the 'FormSilverpopAdapter' s edit form::

>>> browser.open(portal_url+'/testform/testadapter/edit')

We change the value inside the mapping::

>>> browser.getControl(name='mapping.silverpop api key:records', index=0).value = 'FIRST NAME'
>>> browser.getControl('Save').click()

The list of fields, is still the same.

We set up a minimal request, containing the user's input::

>>> request = FakeRequest(silverpop_email='x@x.com', silverpop_name='Hans', credits_to_admin='I like the high availability')

We now call the adapter's onSuccess method::

>>> self.testadapter.onSuccess(fields,request)
http://url.com
{'Content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8'}
<Envelope><Body><AddRecipient><LIST_ID>1</LIST_ID><CREATED_FROM>2</CRE
ATED_FROM><UPDATE_IF_FOUND>true</UPDATE_IF_FOUND><COLUMN><NAME>FIRST N
AME</NAME><VALUE>Hans</VALUE></COLUMN><COLUMN><NAME>EMAIL</NAME><VALUE
>x@x.com</VALUE></COLUMN></AddRecipient></Body></Envelope>
