experimental.nodtml 1.1

Features

DTML documents have been deprecated for several years, at least within the Plone community. So you should not use them. But still Plone ships with DTML documents. And these may contain security issues, especially for Cross Site Scripting (CSS). So this package patches the Document Templates to not return any content.

Options

The package looks for a few environment variables.

SHOW_ORIGINAL_DTML

When this is set to a true value, the original DTML value is printed in the zope instance log. The arguments and keyword arguments are also shown, so you can know where this is coming from. Default: false.

DEBUG_DTML_VALUE

When this is set, the given value is return as content of the DTML. Default: empty string.

EXPERIMENTAL_NODTML_ONLY_WARN

When this is set to a true value, instead of replacing the dtml value, a warning is logged. When true, the SHOW_ORIGINAL_DTML and DEBUG_DTML_VALUE settings are ignored. Default: false.

Accepted True values are: true, t, 1, yes, y.

Installation

Install experimental.nodtml by adding it to your buildout:

[buildout]
...
eggs =
    experimental.nodtml

and then running bin/buildout

No zcml is needed.
