I'm developing an add-on package which introduces a few Archetypes-based content types; these are defined in the default profile of that package.
After (re-) installing my package in the Quick-Installer, I can see my types in the types tool; but I can't add them TTW, and they are not listed in the folder_constraintypes_form. I did select them in the "Allowed content types" multiselect list of the Folder portal type.
Since I got a ValueError
from FactoryTypeInformation._getFactoryMethod
in an bin/instance debug
session, I "developed" Products.CMFPlone
(branch 2.2
) and changed the TypesTool.py
like so:
from pprint import pprint # ADDED
...
class FactoryTypeInformation(TypeInformation):
...
def _getFactoryMethod(self, container, check_security=1):
if not self.product or not self.factory:
raise ValueError, ('Product factory for %s was undefined' %
self.getId())
pd = container.manage_addProduct # ADDED
p = container.manage_addProduct[self.product]
self_product = self.product # ADDED
self_factory = self.factory # ADDED
m = getattr(p, self.factory, None)
if m is None:
pprint(locals()) # ADDED
raise ValueError, ('Product factory for %s was invalid' %
self.getId())
if not check_security:
return m
if getSecurityManager().validate(p, p, self.factory, m):
return m
raise AccessControl_Unauthorized( 'Cannot create %s' % self.getId() )
The debug
session now looks like this:
>>> root = app.plone
>>> from Products.CMFCore.utils import getToolByName
>>> tmp_folder = root.temp
>>> type_name = 'MyType'
>>> types_tool = getToolByName(tmp_folder, 'portal_types')
>>> type_info = types_tool.getTypeInfo(type_name)
>>> type_info
<DynamicViewTypeInformation at /plone/portal_types/MyType>
>>> new_content_item = type_info._constructInstance(tmp_folder, 'shiny_new_object')
{'check_security': 0,
'container': <ATFolder at /plone/temp>,
'pd': <App.FactoryDispatcher.ProductDispatcher object at 0x227afd0>,
'p': <App.FactoryDispatcher.FactoryDispatcher object at 0x7b97450>,
'self': <DynamicViewTypeInformation at /plone/portal_types/MyType>,
'm': None,
'self_factory': 'addMyType',
'self_product': 'MyCompany.MyProduct'}
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
File "/opt/zope/instances/zope-devel/src/Products.CMFCore/Products/CMFCore/TypesTool.py", line 551, in _constructInstance
m = self._getFactoryMethod(container, check_security=0)
File "/opt/zope/instances/zope-devel/src/Products.CMFCore/Products/CMFCore/TypesTool.py", line 467, in _getFactoryMethod
self.getId())
ValueError: Product factory for MyType was invalid
So, the FactoryDispatcher
lacks the necessary addMyType
attribute.
Probably my declarations are incomplete?

addMyType
method?Before someone tells me to do so: I created a question in the Plone community forum already; no luck so far. If important information comes in on either page, I'll sync it.
These are the missing parts to make your contenttype addable:
1.) Register the content-directory in MyCompany/MyProduct/configure.zcml
by adding:
<include package=".content" />
2.) Add the file MyCompany/MyProduct/content/configure.zcml
with this content:
<configure
xmlns="http://namespaces.zope.org/zope"
xmlns:five="http://namespaces.zope.org/five"
i18n_domain="MyCompany.MyProduct">
<class class=".mytype.MyType">
<require
permission="zope2.View"
interface="..interfaces.IMyType"
/>
</class>
</configure>
3.) Fix the then occurring syntax-error in MyCompany/MyProduct/content/mytype.py
by replacing class MyType(*basecls)
with class MyType(ATCTContent)
.
And last but not least remove the former attempts of making things work. Best would be to outsource the type to a dedicated pckg and create it with zopeskel, imo.
For the view-error occurring after adding a type, feel free to open a new quest ;-)
