I've found this snippet in CommentTool?.py inside CPSForum product:
def getParentFolder(proxy):
"""Returns 'Section' or 'Workspace' parent folder."""
parent = proxy.aq_inner.aq_parent
while parent:
if hasattr(parent, 'portal_type') and \
(parent.portal_type == 'Section' or
parent.portal_type == 'Workspace'):
return parent
parent = parent.aq_inner.aq_parent
return proxy.aq_inner.aq_parent
I had some problem with this as I have a new type of folder which type is "WorkspaceCustomized?".
What I propose to improve this code is to add a new attribute to the class, let's say:
parentTypes = ['Section', 'Workspace'] ## This would be the initial value for a CPSDefault Site
sectionTypes = ['Section'] ## It's necessary to diferenciate which of the parentTypes are sections.
and modify the function as this:
def getParentFolder(proxy):
"""Returns parent folder."""
parent = proxy.aq_inner.aq_parent
while parent:
if hasattr(parent, 'portal_type') and (parent.portal_type in parentTypes):
return parent
parent = parent.aq_inner.aq_parent
return proxy.aq_inner.aq_parent
and in the getForum4Comments method modify this lines (the comment below is from the original code):
# we should create a Workspace if parent folder is a workspace
# or a Section if parent folder is a section
if parent_folder.portal_type in sectionTypes:
folder_type = 'Section'
else:
folder_type = 'Workspace'
I implemented this for my own site, and I thought it would be useful for any site. Is this possible to apply it to the original code?
Even this type information identifiers could be managed from ZMI in portal_discussions, what do you think?
Thank you very much.
