FacultyStaffDirectory Sprint Planning  

Topics

We're looking to tackle 3 things in preparation for a 2.1 release:

1.  Integrate FacultyStaffDirectory and CMFBibliographyAT

    • Create an extender product that adapts the CMFBib member/author hooks to allow Persons to be authors (see http://dev.plone.org/collective/browser/Products.CMFBibliographyAT/trunk/Products/CMFBibliographyAT/interface/adapter.py)
    • Person views (or a smart folder?) that display a Person's publications
    • The ability to create a list of "featured publications"
      2. Utilize z3 views
      • Cast off the Plone 2.5 way of doing things and move to z3 views, moving logic out of the templates and into browser views
      • Provide viewlet hooks so that extenders can tack data on to existing views without redefining them
      • Depending on time, we'll work on adding kss-enabled widgets to the content views.
      3. Improve extender documentation (Mostly done!)

          Prerequisites

          Sprinters will need: 

          • Their own laptop 
          • Write access to the WebLion svn. For non-Penn Staters, this requires a "Friends of Penn State" account.  Create an account, then email support@weblion.psu.edu with your FOPS username so that we can give you the proper access.
          • We'd recommend bringing Professional Plone Development and "Web Component Development with Zope 3" if you've got them 
          • Install the FSD development buildout:
          svn co https://weblion.psu.edu/svn/weblion/weblion/FacultyStaffDirectory/buildouts/devel fsdsprint
cd fsdsprint
python bootstrap.py
bin/buildout -v

                To start Zope, use: 

            bin/instance fg

                To run the FacultyStaffDirectory test suite, use: 

             bin/instance test -s Products.FacultyStaffDirectory -vvp
