dolmen.app.content 1.0a3

Base indexes

The dolmen.app.content.indexes.BaseIndexes handles the title and the content type of an IBaseContent content:

>>> indexes.BaseIndexes.__grok_indexes__
{'content_type': <grok.index.Field object at ...>, 'title': <grok.index.Text object at ...>}

>>> indexes.BaseIndexes.__grok_indexes__['content_type']._attribute
'__content_type__'

Searchable text

dolmen.app.content provides a simple ‘ISearchableText’ implementation, allowing full text searches. It comes in two parts.

The index:

>>> indexes.SearchableIndex.__grok_indexes__
{'searchabletext': <grok.index.Text object at ...>}

The adapter:

>>> from zope.index.text.interfaces import ISearchableText
>>> adapter = ISearchableText(manfred)
>>> adapter.getSearchableText()
u'A nice mammoth'

Scales

Let’s introspect our Miniaturizer component:

>>> from dolmen.app.content import thumbnails

>>> thumbnails.BlobMiniaturizer.factory
<class 'dolmen.blob.file.BlobValue'>

>>> print thumbnails.BlobMiniaturizer.scales
{'mini': (250, 250), 'square': (64, 64), 'thumb': (150, 150), 'large': (700, 700), 'small': (128, 128), 'preview': (400, 400)}

The new scale, ‘square’, scales down and crops the original image to provide a square thumbnail. This is done using a IThumbnailer adapter:

>>> from dolmen.thumbnailer import IThumbnailer
>>> thumbnails.SquareThumbnailer
<class 'dolmen.app.content.thumbnails.SquareThumbnailer'>
>>> IThumbnailer.implementedBy(thumbnails.SquareThumbnailer)
True

The default value

>>> from dolmen.app.content import icon
>>> icon.bind().get(manfred)
'...content.png'

Retrieving the icon

>>> from zope.publisher.browser import TestRequest
>>> from zope.component import getMultiAdapter

>>> request = TestRequest()
>>> icon_view = getMultiAdapter((manfred, request), name="icon")
>>> icon_view()
'<img src="http://127.0.0.1/dolmen-content-interfaces-IContent-icon.png" alt="Content" width="16" height="16" border="0" />'

Defining a content icon

Let’s demonstrate the icon registration with a simple test:

>>> from zope import schema

>>> class IContentSchema(dolmen.content.IBaseContent):
...    text = schema.Text(title=u"A body text", default=u"N/A")

>>> class MyContent(dolmen.content.Content):
...  """A simple content with an icon
...  """
...  dolmen.content.schema(IContentSchema)
...  dolmen.content.name("a simple content type")
...  icon('container.png')

>>> testing.grok_component("mycontent", MyContent)
True

Now, we check if our content has a given icon:

>>> elephant = site['elephant'] = MyContent()
>>> icon_view = getMultiAdapter((elephant, request), name="icon")
>>> icon_view()
'<img src="http://127.0.0.1/dolmen-app-content-IContentSchema-icon.png" alt="ContentSchema" width="16" height="16" border="0" />'

Trying to register an icon file that doesn’t exist or cannot resolve will lead to an error:

>>> class AnotherContent(dolmen.content.Content):
...  """Another content with an icon
...  """
...  dolmen.content.schema(IContentSchema)
...  dolmen.content.name("a simple content type")
...  icon('someimaginary thing.png')
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
GrokImportError: Directive 'icon' cannot resolve the file 'someimaginary thing.png'.

1.0a3 (2010-06-04)

• Added an icon for the OrderedContainer type.

1.0a2 (2010-06-04)

• Corrected the icon grokker that failed if the icon directive was not set on a content.

1.0a1 (2010-06-04)

• dolmen.app.content now defines the icon directive that used to live in dolmen.content. Added tests to demonstrate the new feature.

0.2.1 (2010-02-25)

• Using PIL 1.1.7 instead of PILwoTK 1.1.6. This prevents having to declare a third party archive download location.

• Maintenance cleaning for the release of Grok 1.1rc1. Code is now pep8 compliant.

0.2 (2010-02-01)

• Added dolmen.blob include in configure.zcml.

• Cleaning dependencies. The package is now zope.app free and relies on the latest Grok evolution.

0.1 (2009-11-02)

• Initial release
