TL;DR: migrating your Archetypes content to Dexterity shrinks your Data.fs considerably! I’ve started looking into migrating Archetypes content in one of the sites we’re running to Dexterity. But before I started coding I wanted to make sure that the juice is worth the squeeze. The site contains roughly 130k content objects. Most of them are […]

Here at NiteoWeb, we use various SaaS monitoring and logging providers such as Librato Metrics and Papertrail to keep on top of our Plone and Pyramid projects. Hence the need to have a wall-mounted screen to display various graphs and outputs these services. What better way to drive the screen than a Raspberry Pi! Getting […]

This is a walkthrough of how one could upload to Amazon S3 screenshots and other output files produced by Robot framework ran in a Travis CI build. The reason why we want to do this is to be able to inspect what Robot sees and have more information when a test fails. It’s written with some […]

The Belgian Beer Sprint is nearing ever so closer! Only a bit over a week is left until we start this year’s EESTEC Plone sprint. Like last years we invited Electrical Engineering students from around Europe for a week-long introduction to Plone. In the meantime we will have members of the Plone community sprinting on […]

ATTRIBUTION: This post was inspired by Domen’s Mocking logging module for unittests post back from 2009. Most of the code below is from him, with some added Plone specific bits and pieces. I was recently debugging an installation of our niteoweb.click2sell and had the need for more verbose error handling. After adding support for it […]

For a while now we’ve been getting the following errors on one of our sites: WARNING GenericSetup There are unresolved or circular dependencies.

Prelude I’ve recently moved to Barcelona to continue my Computer Science studies on UB. First thing I noticed walking into the University building was my mobile happily notifying me that it has found a known network. Ah, of course: eduroam. My Slovenian eduroam account from University of Ljubljana should be valid throughout Europe for accessing […]

Short summary If you are doing Plone 4 development, go buy this book. Now. Some background I started working with Plone in 2006. Back then I was really just beggining with development in general and did not know how to do things properly. I only knew how to tweak some templates and to use ArchGenXML […]

Introduction Recently I upgraded to OS X Lion and here are my notes on how I got my working environment working. XCode First things first, you need to setup build tools (gcc, make and the like). On OS X these come as a part of XCode. Even if you had XCode installed on Snow Leaopard […]

Intro Hi, I’m Nejc, a Plone user since 2005. I’m trying to get to the Plone Conference in San Francisco this year to do a talk on Raptus Article and I need a few dollars worth of help. At first I did not plan to go due to being expensive to get from Slovenia to […]
