Package: collective.compoundcriterion
This package add a new kind of criterion available for plone.app.collection.MotivationSometimes, some index are composed of different elements with a certain logic or you need to query particular elements of the site like groups of the current user or anything else.
This is not achievable using default indexes and Collection UI, you need to write python code.How to useWhen adding/editing a Collection, a new criterion filed under the ‘Other’ category of available indexes called ‘Filter’ is available.When selecting a ‘Filter’, a selection box will show you named adapter that provide the collective.compoundcriterion.interfaces.ICoumpondCriterionFilter interface.You will be able to select among available ones.  This can still be used together with other criteria.To register this complex query builder named adapter, you will have to add this kind of code :<adapterfor="*"factory="collective.compoundcriterion.tests.adapter.CompoundCrietrionFilterAdapter"provides="collective.compoundcriterion.interfaces.ICompoundCriterionFilter"name="testing-compound-adapter"/>How to testAdd the adapter registration zcml here above to a configure.zcml file (like the one in collective.compoundcriterion), it will make the ‘testing-compound-adapter’ available in the Collection ‘Filter’ index.This testing adapter will query elements of the site having string ‘special_text_to_find’ in the title.  So create a document with such title and it should work.A second adapter can be used to test :<adapterfor="*"factory="collective.compoundcriterion.tests.adapter.SampleCompoundCrietrionFilterAdapter"provides="collective.compoundcriterion.interfaces.ICompoundCriterionFilter"name="sample-compound-adapter"/>This one will query elements having ‘title_with_sample_text’ in the title.Negative index adaptersTwo specific adapters exist to negativize query:negative-previous-indexthat will negativize the values of the previous index defined in the query;negative-personal-labelsthat does the same but for ftw.labels personal labels that needs specific handling as current user id is managed in indexed values.TranslationsThis product has been translated intoFrench.Spanish.You can contribute for any message missing or other new languages, join us atPlone Collective TeamintoTransifex.netservice with all world Plone translators community.ContributorsIMIO,support@imio.beLeonardo J. Caballero G.,leonardocaballero@gmail.comChangelog0.7 (2023-04-12)Do not break innegative-previous-indexwhen some filters does not have
values (so the‘v’is not there in the query).
[gbastien]0.6 (2023-02-13)Addednegative-previous-indexandnegative-personal-labelsdefault adapters.
Rely onimio.helpers. Removed dependency onunittest2.
[gbastien]0.5 (2021-04-20)Add Transifex.net service integration to manage the translation process.
[macagua]Add Spanish translation
[macagua]0.4 (2018-08-31)When getting the adapter, if context is not the Collection, try to get real context
following various cases.  This is the case when using Collection
from plone.app.contenttypes.
[gbastien]Do not use a SelectionWidget to render the querystring widget as it does not
exist anymore for plone.app.contenttypes Collection.
Use the MultipleSelectionWidget.  This way finally we may select several
filters to build the query.
[gbastien]When using ‘not’ in queries for ZCatalog 3, ‘query’ level must be replaced by ‘not’ in query dictionary.
[sgeulette]0.3 (2016-12-08)Return clear message when a query format is not plone.app.querystring compliant.
[gbastien]0.2 (2015-09-04)Raise a KeyError if the format of the query returned by the named adapter
is not compliant with what is returned by
plone.app.querystring.queryparser.parseFormquery, this way it behaves
correctly with collective.eeafaceted.collectionwidget.
[gbastien]0.1 (2015-06-02)Initial release.
