Somtimes useful extensions to Products.slideshowfolder
SlideshowImage
The SlideshowImage content type uses a reference to an existing normal image somewhere else in the site to act as a kind of link or alias. This allows for the creation of a folder as a slideshowfolder that displays images that are actually stored elsewhere.
Start with a couple of normal folders and a normal image.
>>> portal.images <ATFolder at /plone/images> >>> portal.images.contentValues() [<ATImage at /plone/images/foo-image-title>] >>> foo_image = portal.images['foo-image-title']>>> folder.contentValues() [<ATFolder at /plone/Members/test_user_1_/slideshow>] >>> folder.slideshow.contentValues() [<ATImage at /plone/Members/test_user_1_/slideshow/bar-image-title>]
Open a browser and login as a user who can add SlideshowImages.
>>> from Products.Five import testbrowser >>> from Products.PloneTestCase import ptc >>> portal.error_log._ignored_exceptions = () >>> member_browser = testbrowser.Browser() >>> member_browser.handleErrors = False >>> member_browser.open(portal.absolute_url()) >>> member_browser.getLink('Log in').click() >>> member_browser.getControl( ... 'Login Name').value = ptc.default_user >>> member_browser.getControl( ... 'Password').value = ptc.default_password >>> member_browser.getControl('Log in').click() >>> member_browser.open(folder.slideshow.absolute_url())
Add a SlideshowImage. Set the “Image Reference” field to the real image in the images folder.
>>> member_browser.getLink( ... url='createObject?type_name=SlideshowImage').click() >>> member_browser.getControl( ... 'Image Reference').value = foo_image.UID()
Since all values are taken from the referenced image, none of the normal image fields are editable.
>>> member_browser.getControl('Title') Traceback (most recent call last): LookupError: label 'Title'>>> member_browser.getControl('Description') Traceback (most recent call last): LookupError: label 'Description'>>> member_browser.getControl(name='image_file') Traceback (most recent call last): LookupError: name 'image_file'>>> member_browser.getControl('Creators') Traceback (most recent call last): LookupError: label 'Creators'
Save the new SlideshowImage.
>>> member_browser.getControl('Save').click()
The values for the fields are pulled in from the referenced image.
>>> print member_browser.contents <... ...Changes saved... ...Foo Image Title... ...Foo CreÃtor... ...Foo Image description... >>> member_browser.getLink('Click to view full-size image') <Link text='Foo Image Title[IMG] [IMG] Click to view full-size image...' url='http://nohost/plone/Members/test_user_1_/slideshow/foo-image-title/image_view_fullscreen'> >>> member_browser.open( ... folder.slideshow['foo-image-title'].absolute_url()) >>> print member_browser.contents GIF...
The catalog also reflects the data from the referenced image.
>>> len(portal.portal_catalog( ... Type='Slideshow Image', ... Description='Foo Image description')) 1
The catalogged and indexed values for the fields are also updated when the original image is edited.
Open a browser and log in as the image’s creator.
>>> owner_browser = testbrowser.Browser() >>> owner_browser.handleErrors = False >>> owner_browser.open(portal.absolute_url()) >>> owner_browser.getLink('Log in').click() >>> owner_browser.getControl( ... 'Login Name').value = ptc.portal_owner >>> owner_browser.getControl( ... 'Password').value = ptc.default_password >>> owner_browser.getControl('Log in').click()
Change the image metadata.
>>> owner_browser.open(foo_image.absolute_url()+'/edit') >>> owner_browser.getControl( ... 'Description').value = 'Foo Image edited' >>> owner_browser.getControl('Save').click()
The catalog now reflects the changes for the SlideshowImage that references the image.
>>> len(portal.portal_catalog( ... Type='Slideshow Image', ... Description='Foo Image description')) 0>>> len(portal.portal_catalog( ... Type='Slideshow Image', ... Description='Foo Image edited')) 1
Slideshow Folders
SlideshowImages is in a folder using the slideshowfolder view behave just like regular images.
Make the folder into a slideshowfolder.
>>> member_browser.open(folder.slideshow.absolute_url()) >>> member_browser.getLink('Make slideshow').click() >>> print member_browser.contents <... ...This folder is now designated a slideshow...
Check that the SlideshowImage is included in the slideshow by inspecting the JavaScript. The collective.slideshowfolder package also extends the caption to include the image’s creator for credit.
>>> member_browser.open( ... folder.slideshow.absolute_url()+'/slideshow_settings.js') >>> print member_browser.contents registerPloneFunction... ...http://nohost/plone/Members/test_user_1_/slideshow/bar-image-title/image_large... ...Photo: Foo Full NÃme... ...Bar ImÃge description... ...http://nohost/plone/Members/test_user_1_/slideshow/foo-image-title/image_large... ...Photo: Foo CreÃtor... ...Foo Image edited...
Slideshow Portlets
The collective.slideshowfolder package also provides a portlet that renders a Slideshow 2 in a portlet based on the contents of the first folder or collection specified in the “slideshow” refrence for the context.
Turn the a folder into a slideshowfolder.
>>> slideshowfolder = self.folder.slideshow >>> self.loginAsPortalOwner() >>> portal.portal_workflow.doActionFor( ... slideshowfolder, 'publish') >>> slideshowfolder.unrestrictedTraverse( ... '@@folder_slideshow_view').makeSlideshow()
Open a browser and login as a user who can add portlets.
>>> from Products.Five import testbrowser >>> from Products.PloneTestCase import ptc >>> browser = testbrowser.Browser() >>> browser.handleErrors = False >>> browser.open(portal.absolute_url()) >>> browser.getLink('Log in').click() >>> browser.getControl('Login Name').value = ptc.portal_owner >>> browser.getControl('Password').value = ptc.default_password >>> browser.getControl('Log in').click()
Add a slideshowfolder portlet.
>>> browser.getLink('Manage portlets').click() >>> right_column = browser.getForm(index=3) >>> right_column.getControl('Slideshow portlet').selected = True >>> right_column.submit() >>> browser.getControl('Save').click() >>> browser.getLink('Log out').click()
Go to an area of the site without a slideshow.
>>> context = portal.news.aggregator >>> browser.open(context.absolute_url()) >>> 'portletSlideshow' in browser.contents False
Add a slideshowfolder reference for the context.
>>> context.addReference(slideshowfolder, ... relationship="slideshow") <Reference sid:... tid:... rel:slideshow>
Now the slideshow portlet will be rendered.
>>> browser.open(context.absolute_url()) >>> print browser.contents <... ...mootools... ...portletSlideshow... ...id="myShow"... ...registerPloneFunction... ...http://nohost/plone/Members/test_user_1_/slideshow/bar-image-title/image_large...
