class core.prototypes.tree.Tree(moduleName, modulePath, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: viur.core.prototypes.BasicApplication

Tree is a ViUR BasicApplication.

In this application, entries are hold in directories, which can be nested. Data in a Tree application always consists of nodes (=directories) and leafs (=files).

Variables
  • kindName (str) – Name of the kind of data entities that are managed by the application. This information is used to bind a specific server.skeleton.Skeleton-class to the application. For more information, refer to the function _resolveSkel(). In difference to the other ViUR BasicApplication, the kindName in Trees evolve into the kindNames kindName + “node” and kindName + “leaf”, because information can be stored in different kinds.

  • adminInfo (dict | callable) – todo short info on how to use adminInfo.

accessRights = ['add', 'edit', 'view', 'delete']
nodeSkelCls

adminInfo(self)
_checkSkelType(self, skelType: str)
_resolveSkelCls(self, skelType: str, *args, **kwargs)

Retrieve the generally associated server.skeleton.Skeleton that is used by the application.

This is either be defined by the member variable kindName or by a Skeleton named like the application class in lower-case order.

If this behavior is not wanted, it can be definitely overridden by defining module-specific viewSkel(),:func:addSkel, or editSkel() functions, or by overriding this function in general.

Returns

Returns a Skeleton instance that matches the application.

Return type

server.skeleton.Skeleton

viewSkel(self, skelType: str, *args, **kwargs)

Retrieve a new instance of a server.skeleton.Skeleton that is used by the application for viewing an existing entry from the list.

The default is a Skeleton instance returned by _resolveSkel().

See also

addSkel(), editSkel(), _resolveSkel()

Returns

Returns a Skeleton instance for viewing an entry.

Return type

server.skeleton.Skeleton

addSkel(self, skelType: str, *args, **kwargs)

Retrieve a new instance of a server.skeleton.Skeleton that is used by the application for adding an entry to the list.

The default is a Skeleton instance returned by _resolveSkel().

See also

viewSkel(), editSkel(), _resolveSkel()

Returns

Returns a Skeleton instance for adding an entry.

Return type

server.skeleton.Skeleton

editSkel(self, skelType: str, *args, **kwargs)

ensureOwnModuleRootNode(self)

Ensures, that general root-node for the current module exists. If no root-node exists yet, it will be created.

Returns

The entity of the root-node.

Return type

server.db.Entity

getAvailableRootNodes(self, *args, **kwargs)

Default function for providing a list of root node items. This list is requested by several module-internal functions and must be overridden by a custom functionality. The default stub for this function returns an empty list. An example implementation could be the following: .. code-block:: python

def getAvailableRootNodes(self, *args, **kwargs):
q = db.Query(self.rootKindName)
ret = [{“key”: str(e.key()),

“name”: e.get(“name”, str(e.key().id_or_name()))} for e in q.run(limit=25)]

return ret
