Mobile navigation and a basic infrastructure for mobile buttons on a Plone site.

Project description

Introduction

With ftw.mobile you can implement mobile buttons, which shows a list of options on click. The package needs ftw.theming, which provides the basic styles.

Plus it provides a mobile navigation, which is also displayed as a mobile button, but nbehaves completely different.

Installation

  • Add the package to your buildout configuration:

[instance]
eggs +=
    ...
    ftw.mobile

Dependencies

Warning: This package installs ftw.gopip, replacing the getObjPositionInParent catalog index with a FieldIndex. The reason is that ftw.mobile needs to do large catalog queries sorted by getObjPositionInParent, which is too slow in standard Plone. See the ftw.gopip readme for further details.

Usage

Two default buttons are registered by default.

  • User Menu

  • Navigation

Basically the buttons are rendered in a viewlet, which is visible at an certain viewport size.

Register new button

Minimal example:

from ftw.mobile.buttons import BaseButton


class UserButton(BaseButton):

    def label(self):
        return u"User menu"

    def position(self):
        return 1000

    def data(self):
        """json data to display"""
        context_state = getMultiAdapter((self.context, self.request),
                                        name=u'plone_context_state')

        user_actions = context_state.actions('user')

        def link_data(item):
            return {'url': item.get('url'),
                    'label': item.get('title')}
        return map(link_data, user_actions)

You need to define at least the label, the position and the data for a working mobile button.

Keep in mind, that the data method needs to return valid json data structure:

[
    {
        "url": "$LINK_URL",
        "label": "$LINK_LABEL"
    },
    {
        "url": "$LINK_URL",
         "label": "$LINK_LABEL"
    }
]

The user button has the postion 1000 and is rendered most right position and the navigation has the position 100, which is on the most left side.

The navigation button is somehow special across his complexity. The navigation button is not considered a simple button ;-)

Details Navigation Button

The mobilenavigation adds two additional wrappers arround all children of the body on pageload.
