The page is now in place. There will also be
http://packages.qa.debian.org/r/rest2web.html sometime soon to allow
people to keep track. I am also going to subscribe this mailing list
to receive all bug reports, so expect a confirmation mail. :)

Oh, and 0.5.0~beta~svn-r201-1 should be in unstable now.

    Yeah, maybe, one day... You know, I don't like GUIs. Thats clearly
one thing I like about rest2web: it is fully based on what is on the
disk, which allow to make it work on directories synchronised between
different boxes in different places. The danger of course is coding to
many things myself and reinventing the wheel. This is why I should try
investing more time in testing/giving feedback to rest2web. But
xurrently not only am I overloaded by my day job, but I also have a sore
wrist from spending to much time in front of a computer ;->.

    Anyway, I think you a doing a great job with rest2web and I really
look forwards to the release in which the compiling of the web site will
be done in two passes (this does seems like the Right Thing).

Oh well, time to find a good tutorial somewhere.

I'll write a manpage for r2w.py - but it will be a simple description 
and an overview of the command line options.

Even worse - when I make a test case, it works !

I have two files (index.txt and imprint.txt). imprint.txt just has your 
'Zürich' in it - but they both have the same restindexes...

I took great pains to make sure it was *genuinely* encoded with utf-8 
(for example, in the email you sent it was 'latin-1', but this is 
probably irrelevant).

This means the problem is something to do with the template - possibly 
the uservalues are still in unicode or something. (If you try to mix 
unicode and byte-strings then Python will try to decode all the 
byte-strings to unicode using the ascii codec, this would cause the 
exception you saw.)

I'm going to see if I can isolate the bug with the template...

By the way - I see your problem with uservalues.

In r2w.ini, you need to put them into a uservalues section :

[uservalues]

site_title = Method diffusion in large open source projects
site_subtitle = Ph.D. research by Martin F. Krafft

I think it is the other way round, by the time they are rendered they 
should all be byte-strings rather than unicode.

Anyway, I'm going round in circles trying to chase this one down.

Can you try it with an explicit 'output-encoding' of 'utf-8' and see if 
you have the same problem.

The code that executes templates uses a single namespace. If you modify 
that namespace (create variables etc) then they should persist for that 
whole page - in the order that they are created in the page.

*However*, up until about five minutes ago eval was done before exec. 
That meant that you couldn't do :

    <# xyz = 3 #> <% xyz %>

(<% .. %> was always done first.)

I've just reversed the order - so that should work now.

By the way Gael: You may find the journal/blog style parts of your site 
easier to administer with `Firedrop2 
<http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/firedrop2/>`_. You can still make 
entries with ReST - but it handles archives/RSS/categories etc for you, 
and lets you administer each entry separately. Just a thought. :-)

    Now that _is_ useful !

    Can I suggest another change : for each page, variables created in
one code block are kept and accessible for the next code blocks. You can
have a look at what I do in pyreport (
http://gael-varoquaux.info/computers/pyreport ) to see how I do
something similar. Check out the function executeBlock: I save the
namespace at the end of the function call and reinject it later in my
"exec" call.

    This would be really useful and would allow to avoid to much code
duplication in "template.txt" and in the different files processed.

	Cheers,

You *should* be able to do the following :

Put something like this in your config file :

[uservalues]
site_wide_title = 'A nice site title'

Then in your templates/pages you should just be able to use the name 
``site_wide_title`` directly, it should be in your namespace.

Let me know if this doesn't work and I will fix it.

I've just committed some changes to SVN.

These add to the namespace, *and* to pages in the indextree, various 
pieces of information about the pages :


'source_file': The source file for the page

'current_dir': The current directory being processed - this can be 
turned into an absolute filepath by doing os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 
current_dir)

'target_dir': The target file directory (as an absolute file path) being 
rendered into. Note if the file has a target specified it may not be put 
in this directory. Use os.path.dirname(target_file) instead.

'full_page_url': The full url (starting with '/') for the current page

'target_file': The full filename of the page being rendered

I've also nailed a tricky bug with the finding of 'thispage'.

Now to nail the unicode bug, and possibly add an 'include_rest' function.

Well, of course I would prefer to define footer.txt in RST, and the
only sensible place to include footer.txt is template.txt. :)

But this is low priority...

Then you need to use templating tags for rest documents :

    <$ include('filename.txt') $>

See 'templating.txt' about the two different sorts of templating tags. :-)

You will only be able to use this inside *pages* though, not inside 
'template.txt', which is never processed for ReST. (You want to include 
ReST in your HTML template !?!?).

*However*, I can easily expose an equivalent of html_parts -so you could 
do :

    <% include_rest('filename.txt', encoding) %>

Do you need this ?

FWIW, I got it working the way I want it (I think), see
http://martin-krafft.net/phd/ . The CSS that makes it look good
(IMHO at least) is http://martin-krafft.net/phd/css/screen.css .

The code I use for template.txt is below. The system works with
uservalues to be defined in the base page of a category:

uservalues
  category_name: Contact
  category_prio: 99
/uservalues

Both values are optional, but at least one has to exist, or else the
system does not recognise the page as a category definition. If the
name is left out, the link_title (or page_title) is used. If the
priority is left out, 50 is used. Tabs are sorted according to
priority, then category name.

This can probable be improved, and added to functions.py at one
point.

Thanks, Michael, for your help!

[Rest2web-develop] unicode problems

[martin f k. <ma...@ma...>]

Michael,

I see restutils.encode uses the string encode function. I don't
think this is what you want.

< madduck> so i am baffled
< madduck> >>> type('bla'.encode('utf-8'))
< madduck> <type 'str'>
< cracki> encode returns 8 bit
< madduck> or even worse,
< madduck> >>> type(u'bla'.encode('utf-8'))
< madduck> <type 'str'>
< cracki> you want unicode("bla")
< cracki> encode encodes to binary representations
< madduck> what's the point of "encode('utf-8')" then?
< cracki> unicode("foo", "utf-8")
< cracki> encode(u"someunicodestr", "weirdencoding") transforms to a=20
          binary representation
< cracki> in memory, unicode strings are multibyte, constant width

The reason I am posting this is because I am getting an error

  UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in
  position 2555: ordinal not in range(128)

This is due to a file that says "Z=FCrich", and the file itself is
UTF-8, as is the template:

  lapse:~/phd/web> head -15 imprint.txt                                    =
 [390]
  restindex
    encoding: utf8
    template-encoding:=20
  /restindex
  [...]
    8050 Z=FCrich

The exception is thrown in line 75 of embedded_code.py:

  template =3D template.replace(occ, value)

when template holds the template text just after body had been
filled in with the result from the imprint.txt transformed to HTML.
Template is a str, not a unicode object, which is the root of all
evil.

Am I doing something wrong?
