Getting Object Information in Workflow Script

jenda72 () Getting Object Information in Workflow Script

Reply Threaded

I'm trying to write a script to e-mail the object's URL after a workflow
transition. The script is following:

obj=sti.object
obj_url = obj.absolute_url()

mMsg = """
A document has been submitted for your review.
The url was %s.
"""

mTo = # some fixed e-mail address
mFrom = # some fixed e-mail address
mSubj = 'Item has transitioned'
message = mMsg % (obj_url)
context.MailHost.send(message,mTo, mFrom, mSubj)

I have mapped the script to "submit" transition, I have set proxy role
as "manager" and owner of the script is admin (defined in Zope).

The problem is with "obj=sti.object":

When "Pending" state has "View" permission for anonymous, everything is
OK. But I need to hide pending documents from public, so our "Pending"
state has no "View" and "Access contents information" permissions for
anonymous. In that case, I get an error saying that privileges are
insufficient when I change the state from 'visible' to 'submitted'.

Why objects must be accesable from anonymous to be able to use
"obj=sti.object"?

Is there any solution?

Thank you for any help and idea.

Jan

send (or prepare) your message in the "before" script.
this script is called before the state (and the permission settings)
have changed

Hi Robert,

thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, the state before the transition
change ("Visible") has also no View permission for anonymous. Only
published content is available to public. So calling the script before
causes the same problem.

When I remove proxy role "manager" from the script, "obj=sti.object"
works without any problem = a strange thing! But I need to set proxy
role "manager" because of Use mailhost service :-(

Do you think there is another way how to solve it? Is it a bug (Plone)?

Best regards,

Jan

Thanks to great Yuri, now it is solved:

"It is a context problem. Do a script not proxied which call a proxied
script, should work."

So I have create extra script "mail_sending" just for sending e-mails,
with manager proxy role, and I call it from the main script without any
proxy role as: context.mail_sending(message,mTo,mFrom,mSubj).

It works! :-)

It is a known bug but not in Plone but rather the underlying Zope/CMF.

Realize your script as external method instead.
