reading txt files..

[MaxSteel]

I'm trying to create some python code to make it READ the contents of
a text [plainfiles.href] file and then display it in the "folder" of
an album.

I'm having a difficult time figuring out where "plainfiles.href" is
defined.  This is the variable name that gets passed to the
default.ezt to be displayed in html format.

Can anyone assist me?  I think the type of python code I'm looking at
is something like:

print open(plainfiles.href).read()

I'm guessing it'd be better to pass that to another variable:

plainfilecontent = open(plainfiles.href).read()

I just dont' know how to do this, nor where to put it in the .py code.

I've been looking at it for a few days, and have become flustered :(

Please halp!
:)

plainfiles starts life as a list of "objects" set in these lines:

if plainfiles_extensions.has_key(ext):
          plainfiles.append(_datablob(href=href, is_new=is_new, text=base))
          continue

inside a loop checking each file in the folder.

What this does is make a list of 'object-looking things' in datablobs
(which i distinctly do not like) that looks something like this:

file1 -- file1.href = "server/readme.txt" file1.text = "readme"

and then passes that list to the template rendering code (which is
defined at line 691), where the template loops through that list and
prints the URL and name for each file.

If you wanted to output the contents of all text files you'd change it
to something like this:

plainfiles.append(_datablob(href=href, is_new=is_new, text=base,
contents=open(fullpath+name).read()))

Then you should be able to access the text from the template (probably
default.ezt) and do whatever you need to with it. You should be able
to get the value inside this section:

[for plainfiles]

as [plainfiles.contents]. You'll want to put it in a preformatted HTML
tag to preserve normal linebreaks and spacing, like so::
<pre>[plainfiles.contents]</pre>

It's a little confusing, and I can't say I entirely like the path
getting from a folder URL request to the template, but it's a little
less confusing if you just trace it through front to back (maybe with
an open Python interpreter to mess about with).

p.s. I didn't test this. It should more or less work, but I just meant
it to help you along, not solve it entirely. Good luck.

Thanks for replying Yoni.. I tried it.. but got this error:

You are right, this is  a bit confusing.. I'm still plugging away, but
if you get the chance in the meantime to assist, it'd be appreciated
as usual,

Ok I figured it out fullpath wasn't declared until after that line.  I
just added a new declaration before "fullpathtemp" and this works:

        fullpathtemp = os.path.join(curdir, name)
        if plainfiles_extensions.has_key(ext):
          plainfiles.append(_datablob(href=href, is_new=is_new,
text=base, contents=open(fullpathtemp).read()))
          continue

I do now have a weird error coming up on the "server" screen...

any idea what is causing this?

[Yoni Samlan-2]

judging from the fact that it's ezt raising the exception, it looks
like something's wrong in your template or the values going into it.
Throw some print statements in before you get to the template to be
sure you're passing the right values over to it, and check your syntax
in the templates (EZT doesn't really throw useful errors -- the port
i'm working on for Pylons/WSGI is using Mako for the templates
instead).

What's even more odd is that now the error doesn't come up.. lol

although, now, I do have a weird ? (question mark) on my page that's
displayed..  I can't figure out where it's coming from.. ..although I
haven't tried that much yet.. that'll come next/now :)

Thanks a bunch Yoni, I'm obviously rusty, and wasn't understanding the
code very much, and to be honest, didn't have enough time to really
sit there and figure it out.  I just want it to be functional.....then
i'll make it purdy and be done with it (until the next thing i want to
add to it)..

It's definately starting to take shape!

Hi everybody,

I thought I'd point out that if you are interested in running an embedded
flash player on your edna pages, this script works amazingly well:

http://del.icio.us/help/playtagger

I briefly had the xspf web music player
(http://musicplayer.sourceforge.net/) installed but found that my browser
would freeze while loading a lengthy list of files. Playtagger doesn't have
the same effect and loads exceptionally quickly.

Only drawbacks I've noticed: mp3 only and it doesn't handle special
characters at all (ö,ó,etc) rendering a file that contains these characters
unplayable. Not too big of a deal.

The buttons can be customized a bit as the play and stop buttons are just
small gifs.

I don't use delicious so I don't know how useful it is in regards to
bookmarking.

Good luck!
