A Plone API.

Project description

plone.api
=========

.. topic:: Overview

The ``plone.api`` is an elegant and simple API, built for humans wishing
to develop with Plone.

It comes with *cookbook*-like documentation and step-by-step instructions
for doing common development tasks in Plone. Recipes try to assume the user
does not have extensive knowledge about Plone internals.

The intention of this package is to provide clear API methods for Plone
functionality which may be confusing or difficult to access. As the underlying
code improves some API methods may be deprecated and the documentation here
will be updated to show how to use the improved code (even if it means not
using ``plone.api``)

Some parts of the documentation do not use *plone.api* methods directly, but
simply provide guidance on achieving a task using Plone's internal API. For
example, using the portal catalog (see 'Find content objects').

The intention is to cover 20% of the tasks any Plone developer does 80% of the
time. By keeping everything in one place, the API stays introspectable and
discoverable, important aspects of being Pythonic.

.. note::

This package is stable and used in production, but from time to time
changes will be made to the API. Additional api methods may be introduced
in minor versions (1.1 -> 1.2). Backward-incompatible changes to the API
will be restricted to major versions (1.x -> 2.x).
