Debug toolbar for Plone
Project description
Introduction
plone.app.debugtoolbar provides a wealth of debug information about a running Plone site at your fingertips. Simply install it in your build (e.g. by adding it to the eggs list in your Buildout and re-running buildout) and install it into your Plone site.
You should now see a Debug link at the top of your site. Click it to open the debug drawer. Click on a panel to view relevant information.
Panels include:
Context, showing information about the current content object
Interactive, providing an interactive Python prompt through which you can interact with the current context (only available to users with the Manage portal permission)
Request, showing information about the request that produced the current page
Response, showing informationa about the response that produced the current page
Published, showing information about the page template or view that was published
Theme, showing information about the current theme and browser layers
User, showing information about the current user
Workflow, showing information about workflow and security
Zope, showing information about how the Zope server is configured
Versions, listing the versions of every package known to the Zope process
Safety
The debug toolbar provides a lot of information about your Plone site that you may not want the world to know. It could also have a noticable performance impact, and for users with the Manage portal permission it provides access to an interactive interpreter where arbitrary Python statements can be executed, allowing a user to bypass Zope security.
In other words: Do not install this package on your production server.
Integration
Each panels is included as a viewlet. You can register new panels using a viewlet registration like this:
<browser:viewlet name="plone.app.debugtoolbar.somepanel" manager="plone.app.debugtoolbar.browser.interfaces.IDebugToolbarViewletManager" class=".somepanel.SomePanelViewlet" template="somepanel.pt" permission="zope2.View" layer="plone.app.debugtoolbar.browser.interfaces.IDebugToolbarLayer" />
See plone.app.debugtoolbar.browser for plenty of examples of panels.
