Adapters
Default Display Name Generator
The default display name generator simply takes a Dublin Core title or a
__name__ and returns it, truncated if desired. It uses a helper function
intended to make writing other display name generators easier, convertName.
No help is offered yet for using HTML with the IBrowserDisplayNameGenerator
interface.
Given an ILocation that can be adapted to
zope.dublincore.interfaces.IDCDescriptiveProperties, and that actually has
a value for it, it returns the DC title; otherwise, it uses __name__.
>>> import zope.dublincore.interfaces
>>> import zope.location.interfaces
>>> from zc.displayname import interfaces, adapters
>>> from zope.interface import verify
>>> from zope import interface
>>> class Dummy(object):
... interface.implements(zope.location.interfaces.ILocation)
... def __init__(self, parent, name):
... self.__parent__ = parent
... self.__name__ = name
...
>>> d = Dummy('parent', 'a name')
>>> from zope.publisher.browser import TestRequest
>>> g = adapters.DefaultDisplayNameGenerator(d, TestRequest())
>>> verify.verifyObject(interfaces.IDisplayNameGenerator, g)
True
>>> g()
'a name'
>>> g('foo')
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: ('maxlength must be int', 'foo')
>>> g(-1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: ('maxlength must be 0 or greater', -1)
>>> g(4)
'a...'
>>> g(6)
'a name'
>>> g(2)
'??'
>>> interface.directlyProvides(
... d, zope.dublincore.interfaces.IDCDescriptiveProperties)
>>> d.title = 'My Special Dummy'
>>> d.description = 'My interface said I had to have this'
>>> verify.verifyObject(
... zope.dublincore.interfaces.IDCDescriptiveProperties, d)
True
>>> g()
'My Special Dummy'
>>> g(0)
''
>>> g(100)
'My Special Dummy'
>>> g(16)
'My Special Dummy'
>>> g(15)
'My Special D...'
Breadcrumbs
zc.displayname also provides an interface and some basic adapters that provide
breadcrumb functionality. This breadcrumb functionality is notably different
from the standard Zope 3 breadcrumbs in two ways: the breadcrumbs are not
connected to the IAbsoluteURL interface, and the breadcrumbs take advantage
of the display name generator.
To use the breadcrumbs, register the appropriate adapters, and get breadcrumbs
for an ILocation within a hierarchy with an IContainmentRoot as a root node.
>>> from zope.traversing.interfaces import IContainmentRoot
>>> class DummyContainmentRoot(object):
... zope.interface.implements(IContainmentRoot)
...
>>> root = DummyContainmentRoot()
>>> child = Dummy(root, 'foo')
>>> grandchild = Dummy(child, 'bar baz bing')
>>> d.__parent__ = grandchild
>>> from zope import component
>>> component.provideAdapter(adapters.Breadcrumbs)
>>> component.provideAdapter(adapters.TerminalBreadcrumbs)
>>> component.provideAdapter(adapters.DefaultDisplayNameGenerator)
>>> component.provideAdapter(adapters.SiteDisplayNameGenerator)
>>> from zope.publisher.interfaces.http import IHTTPRequest
>>> from zope.traversing.browser.interfaces import IAbsoluteURL
>>> from zope.traversing import browser
>>> component.provideAdapter(
... browser.AbsoluteURL, adapts=(None, IHTTPRequest),
... provides=IAbsoluteURL)
>>> component.provideAdapter(
... browser.SiteAbsoluteURL, adapts=(IContainmentRoot, IHTTPRequest),
... provides=IAbsoluteURL)
>>> component.provideAdapter(
... browser.AbsoluteURL, adapts=(None, IHTTPRequest),
... provides=interface.Interface, name='absolute_url')
>>> component.provideAdapter(
... browser.SiteAbsoluteURL, adapts=(IContainmentRoot, IHTTPRequest),
... provides=interface.Interface, name='absolute_url')
>>> from zope.publisher.browser import TestRequest
>>> request = TestRequest()
>>> bc = component.getMultiAdapter((d, request), interfaces.IBreadcrumbs)
>>> import pprint
>>> pprint.pprint(bc()) # doctest: +ELLIPSIS +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
({'name': u'[root]',
'name_gen': <...SiteDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <DummyContainmentRoot...>,
'url': 'http://127.0.0.1'},
{'name': 'foo',

>>> pprint.pprint(bc(6)) # doctest: +ELLIPSIS +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
({'name': u'[root]',
'name_gen': <...SiteDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <DummyContainmentRoot...>,
'url': 'http://127.0.0.1'},

{'name': 'bar...',
'name_gen': <...DefaultDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <Dummy...>,

{'name': 'My ...',
'name_gen': <...DefaultDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <Dummy...>,
'url': 'http://127.0.0.1/foo/bar%20baz%20bing/a%20name'})
The package also offers a hidden breadcrumb implementation. This enables
usecases that involve objects that are in the traversal path but are for which
no breadcrumbs are desired. For some sites, an IAdding is such an object.
Here is an example of hiding the IAdding from the breadcrumbs.
>>> import zope.app.container.interfaces
>>> component.provideAdapter(
... adapters.HiddenBreadcrumbs,
... adapts=(zope.app.container.interfaces.IAdding, IHTTPRequest))
>>> from zope.app.container.browser.adding import Adding
>>> adding = Adding(d, request)
>>> bc = component.getMultiAdapter(
... (adding, request), interfaces.IBreadcrumbs)
>>> pprint.pprint(bc()) # doctest: +ELLIPSIS +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
({'name': u'[root]',
'name_gen': <...SiteDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <DummyContainmentRoot...>,
'url': 'http://127.0.0.1'},
{'name': 'foo',
'name_gen': <...DefaultDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <Dummy...
'url': 'http://127.0.0.1/foo'},
{'name': 'bar baz bing',
'name_gen': <...DefaultDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <Dummy...>,
'url': 'http://127.0.0.1/foo/bar%20baz%20bing'},
{'name': 'My Special Dummy',
'name_gen': <...DefaultDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <Dummy...>,
'url': 'http://127.0.0.1/foo/bar%20baz%20bing/a%20name'})
For ease of use within page templates, the adapters module also offers two
views that can be used to get breadcrumbs directly. They simply get the
adapter and call it, either with no argument, or with the maxlength argument of
20. Register one of these, or another one with a similar pattern, for
your application’s breadcrumbs view.
>>> pprint.pprint(adapters.breadcrumbs(adding, request))

'name_gen': <...SiteDisplayNameGenerator...>,
'object': <DummyContainmentRoot...>,
