Folder icon CPSSchemas - a framework to deal with fields, schemas, widgets, layouts and vocabularies, the way they are displayed to the user and the way user input is validated

This package adds a framework to deal with fields, schemas, widgets, layouts and vocabularies, the way they are displayed to the user and the way user input is validated.

Schemas define what's stored in an object, at the level of individual fields. A field can be an integer, a string, a list of strings, a file object, etc.

Vocabularies define an ordered list of options presented to the user and the associated underlying values stored in the object. For instance a list of countries where only country codes are stored but full country names are displayed.

Widgets define how one or several fields from a schema are displayed to the user. They can be displayed in several modes (typically "view" and "edit"). Some modes may take input from the user and validate what the user entered, so that if the entry is incorrect an appropriate message can be displayed. Widgets can be parametrized and rewritten by the administrator if a different widget is needed.

A Layout is a way to assemble several widgets together to display them. A layout adds a level of graphical display that can for instance add labels before the widgets, or borders, or display validation errors. Layouts, like widgets, can be displayed in several modes.

The above talks about storing data in an object, but using a storage adapter it is possible to do anything else with the data (sending it to an SQL database, accumulating it for statistics, or just getting the resulting dictionary for further treatment).

More information

You can find more information about CPS3 in the EuroPython slides

See also the Nuxeo web site and CPS Project for more details.

There is now a cps-devel mailing list for CPS3 (and CPS2) developers. CPS users lists (cps-users (english) and cps-users-fr (french)) are also available.

If you can read this text, it means you are not experiencing the Plone design at its best. Plone makes heavy use of CSS, which means it is accessible to any internet browser, but the design needs a standards-compliant browser to look like we intended it. Just so you know ;)
