This file outlines the basics of using Zope3 with PostgreSQL via PsycopgDA.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installing PsycopgDA
|
||
|
--------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Check out the psycopg2da package into a directory in your
|
||
|
PYTHONPATH. INSTANCE_HOME/lib/python or Zope3/src is usually the
|
||
|
most convenient place:
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
svn co svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/psycopg2da/trunk psycopg2da
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Copy `psycopg2-configure.zcml` to the `package-includes` directory
|
||
|
of your Zope instance.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Creating Database Connections
|
||
|
------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is time to add some connections. A connection in Zope 3 is
|
||
|
registered as a utility.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Open a web browser on your Zope root folder (http://localhost:8080/
|
||
|
if you use the default settings in zope.conf.in).
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. Click on the 'Manage Site' action on the right side of the
|
||
|
screen. You should see a screen which reads 'Common Site Management
|
||
|
Tasks'
|
||
|
|
||
|
5. Around the middle of that page, you should see a link named 'Add
|
||
|
Utility'. Click on it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
6. Select 'Psycopg DA' and type in a name at the bottom of the page.
|
||
|
|
||
|
7. Enter the database connection string. It looks like this:
|
||
|
|
||
|
dbi://username:password@host:port/databasename
|
||
|
|
||
|
8. Click on the 'Add' button.
|
||
|
|
||
|
9. You should be on a page which reads 'Add Database Connection
|
||
|
Registration'. There you can configure the permission needed to use
|
||
|
the database connection, the name of the registration and the
|
||
|
registration status. You can use any name for 'Register As' field,
|
||
|
as long as it doesn't clash with an existing one. Choose a
|
||
|
permission. Choose between 'Registered' and 'Active' for the
|
||
|
'Registration Status'. Only one component of a kind can be 'Active'
|
||
|
at a time, so be careful.
|
||
|
|
||
|
10. You should be redirected to the 'Edit' screen of the connection
|
||
|
utility.
|
||
|
|
||
|
11. If you want to, you can go to the Test page and execute arbitrary
|
||
|
SQL queries to see whether the connection is working as expected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using SQL Scripts
|
||
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can create SQL Scripts in the content space. For example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
12. Go to Zope root.
|
||
|
|
||
|
13. Add an SQL script (you can use the Common Tasks box on the left,
|
||
|
or the Add action on the right).
|
||
|
|
||
|
14. Click on the name of your new SQL script.
|
||
|
|
||
|
15. Choose a connection name (the one you entered in step 29) from the
|
||
|
drop-down.
|
||
|
|
||
|
16. Enter your query and click on the 'Save Changes' button.
|
||
|
|
||
|
17. You can test the script in the -- surprise! -- Test page.
