collective.validationoverride 0.1

Examples

Before installing collective.validationoverride, field validation must be satisfied.

Capture logging output.

>>> from zope.testing.loggingsupport import InstalledHandler
>>> log_handler = InstalledHandler('collective.validationoverride')

Open a browser and log in as a user with the “Manager” role.

>>> from Products.Five.testbrowser import Browser
>>> from Products.PloneTestCase import ptc
>>> owner_browser = 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()

Add an event and try to save it without valid field values. The validation fails and reports the required fields.

>>> owner_browser.getLink(url='Event').click()
>>> owner_browser.getControl('Event URL').value = 'foo'
>>> owner_browser.getControl('Contact E-mail').value = 'bar'
>>> owner_browser.getControl('Save').click()
>>> print owner_browser.contents
<...
            <dd>Please correct the indicated errors.</dd>...
          <div class="fieldErrorBox">Title is required, please correct.</div>...
          <div class="fieldErrorBox">Validation failed(isURL): 'foo' is not a valid url.</div>...
          <div class="fieldErrorBox">Validation failed(isEmail): 'bar' is not a valid email address.</div>...

No validation errors have been logged.

>>> for record in log_handler.records:
...     print record.getMessage()

After installing collective.validationoverride, field validation failures will be omitted for users with the “Manger” role but not for normal users since the “Override validation” permission is only given to users with the “Manager” role.

Install the collective.validationoverride package.

>>> portal.portal_quickinstaller.installProduct(
...     'collective.validationoverride')
''

Now a user with the “Manager” role can successfully add an event with invalid field values.

>>> owner_browser.open(portal.absolute_url())
>>> owner_browser.getLink(url='Event').click()
>>> owner_browser.getControl('Event URL').value = 'foo'
>>> owner_browser.getControl('Contact E-mail').value = 'bar'
>>> owner_browser.getControl('Save').click()
>>> print owner_browser.contents
<...
            <dd>Changes saved.</dd>...
                        <a href="&#0109;ailto&#0058;bar" class="email fn">bar</a>...
            <a class="url" href="foo"...

All omitted validation errors have been logged.

>>> for record in log_handler.records:
...     print record.getMessage()
Overriding the validation result u'Title is required, please correct.' on <ATEvent at /plone/portal_factory/Event/event... used for /plone>:
{'title': u'Title is required, please correct.'}

Open a browser and log in as a normal user.

>>> browser = Browser()
>>> browser.handleErrors = False
>>> browser.open(portal.absolute_url())
>>> browser.getLink('Log in').click()
>>> browser.getControl('Login Name').value = ptc.default_user
>>> browser.getControl(
...     'Password').value = ptc.default_password
>>> browser.getControl('Log in').click()

The normal use still cannot add an event with invalid field values.

>>> browser.open(self.folder.absolute_url())
>>> browser.getLink(url='Event').click()
>>> browser.getControl('Event URL').value = 'foo'
>>> browser.getControl('Contact E-mail').value = 'bar'
>>> browser.getControl('Save').click()
>>> print browser.contents
<...
            <dd>Please correct the indicated errors.</dd>...
          <div class="fieldErrorBox">Title is required, please correct.</div>...
          <div class="fieldErrorBox">Validation failed(isURL): 'foo' is not a valid url.</div>...
          <div class="fieldErrorBox">Validation failed(isEmail): 'bar' is not a valid email address.</div>...

No validation errors have been logged.

>>> for record in log_handler.records:
...     print record.getMessage()

Set the ‘validation_override_permission’ field attribute to a permission the normal user has.

>>> from Products.ATContentTypes.content import event
>>> schema = event.ATEvent.schema
>>> schema['title'].validation_override_permission = (
...     "Modify portal content")
>>> schema['eventUrl'].validation_override_permission = (
...     "Modify portal content")
>>> schema['contactEmail'].validation_override_permission = (
...     "Modify portal content")

Now the user can successfully add an event with invalid field values.

>>> browser.open(self.folder.absolute_url())
>>> browser.getLink(url='Event').click()
>>> browser.getControl('Event URL').value = 'foo'
>>> browser.getControl('Contact E-mail').value = 'bar'
>>> browser.getControl('Save').click()
>>> print browser.contents
<...
            <dd>Changes saved.</dd>...
                        <a href="&#0109;ailto&#0058;bar" class="email fn">bar</a>...
            <a class="url" href="foo"...

All omitted validation errors have been logged.
