redturtle.tiles.management 2.0.0

An alternative method for handling and showing tiles

A tiles management system, easier than plone.app.mosaic that uses plone.app.tiles and Mockup functionalities to build a simple UI.

Features

• Simple UI to add/remove/edit registered tiles

• Tiles sorting with drag-and-drop (thanks to mockup)

• Tiles resizing (with default or custom CSS classes)

• Tile manager is a pattern that can be included in every custom page

• plone.layoutaware behavior enabled for Documents

• Example tiles_view view available for all objects with “plone.layoutaware” behavior enabled

• Customizable available tiles list from control panel

Usage

Tiles manager works with plone.app.blocks features and its plone.layoutaware behavior, so you can use this functionality only on Content Types with this behavior enabled.

Installing this product, a new pattern will be available: “pat-tiles-management”, and you only need to insert a pattern-style tag into your view like this:

<div class="pat-tiles-management" data-pat-tiles-management="managerId:myManager" />

You need to provide a managerId attribute, because multiple managers can be instantiated in a view, and with this, the pattern can handle the tiles stored in each manager.

Available tiles list

You can configure a list of addable tiles for this manager in Plone’s control panel: http://yoursite/@@tiles-management-settings

In the “Add new tile” menu you’ll see this list filtered also by single tiles permission.

Tile resizing

If you want two tiles in a row, from tile control buttons select a style in the “resize” dropdown. There are two default styles:

• reset (with no CSS classes)

• two tiles in a row (half-width class)

These CSS classes can be configured in control panel.

JS Development and bundling

If you need to develop this product’s javascripts or styles, you need to compile the code for the resource registry bundle. To do this, there are two grunt tasks.

First of all, you need to install grunt dependencies listed in package.json file in the root of this package:

npm install

or if you prefer yarn:

yarn

After that, you can use two different grunt tasks:

• grunt: the default task, that listen files changes with watch and re-build resources and bundles automatically

• grunt compile: to manually compile all resources and bundles

Translations

This product has been translated into

• Italian

Installation

Install redturtle.tiles.management by adding it to your buildout:

[buildout]

 ...

 eggs =
     redturtle.tiles.management

and then running “bin/buildout”

Compatibility

This package is developed with mockup, so is fully compatible for Plone 5.

From 1.0.0 version, Plone 4 compatibility has been dropped, so you need to use the 0.x branch.
