Shared Zope Toolkit browser components

Project description

zope.browser

This package provides shared browser components for the Zope Toolkit.

IView

Views adapt both a context and a request.

There is not much we can test except that IView is importable and an interface:

>>> from zope.interface import Interface
>>> from zope.browser.interfaces import IView
>>> Interface.providedBy(IView)
True

IBrowserView

Browser views are views specialized for requests from a browser (e.g., as distinct from WebDAV, FTP, XML-RPC, etc.).

There is not much we can test except that IBrowserView is importable and an interface derived from IView:

>>> from zope.interface import Interface
>>> from zope.browser.interfaces import IBrowserView
>>> Interface.providedBy(IBrowserView)
True
>>> IBrowserView.extends(IView)
True

IAdding

Adding views manage how newly-created items get added to containers.

There is not much we can test except that IAdding is importable and an interface derived from IBrowserView:

>>> from zope.interface import Interface
>>> from zope.browser.interfaces import IAdding
>>> Interface.providedBy(IBrowserView)
True
>>> IAdding.extends(IBrowserView)
True

ITerms

The ITerms interface is used as a base for ISource widget implementations. This interfaces get used by zope.app.form and was initially defined in zope.app.form.browser.interfaces, which made it impossible to use for other packages like z3c.form wihtout depending on zope.app.form.

Moving such base components / interfaces to zope.browser makes it possible to share them without undesirable dependencies.

There is not much we can test except that ITerms is importable and an interface:

>>> from zope.interface import Interface
>>> from zope.browser.interfaces import ITerms
>>> Interface.providedBy(ITerms)
True

ISystemErrorView

Views providing this interface can classify their contexts as system errors. These errors can be handled in a special way (e. g. more detailed logging).

There is not much we can test except that ISystemErrorView is importable and an interface:

>>> from zope.interface import Interface
>>> from zope.browser.interfaces import ISystemErrorView
>>> Interface.providedBy(ISystemErrorView)
True
