ZOPYX SmartPrintNG Server

Project description

zopyx.smartprintng.server

A repoze.bfg based server implementation for the SmartPrintNG framework.

The SmartPrintNG server is part of the SmartPrintNG web-to-print solution of ZOPYX.

Installation

  • create an virtualenv environment (Python 2,4, 2.5 or 2.6) - either within your current (empty) directory or by letting virtualenv create one for you:

    virtualenv --no-site-packages .

    or:

    virtualenv --no-site-packages smartprintng
  • install repoze.bfg (by installing repoze.bfg.xmlrpc having repoze.bfg as a dependency)

    bin/easy_install -i http://dist.repoze.org/bfgsite/simple repoze.bfg.xmlrpc
  • install the SmartPrintNG server:

    bin/easy_install zopyx.smartprintng.server
  • create a server.ini configuration file (and change according to your needs):

    [DEFAULT]
    debug = true
    
    [app:main]
    use = egg:zopyx.smartprintng.server#app
    reload_templates = true
    debug_authorization = false
    debug_notfound = false
    
    [server:main]
    use = egg:Paste#http
    host = 127.0.0.1
    port = 6543
  • start the server:

    bin/paster serve server.ini

XMLRPC API

The SmartPrintNG server exposes several methods through XMLRPC:

def convertZIP(zip_archive, converter_name):
    """ 'zip_archive' is ZIP archive (encoded as base-64 byte string).
        The archive must contain exactly *one* HTML file to be converted
        including all related resources like stylesheets and images.
        All files must be stored flat within the archive (no subfolders).
        All references to externals resources like the 'src' attribute
        of the IMG tag or references to the stylesheet(s) must use
        relative paths. The method returns the converted output file
        also as base64-encoded ZIP archive.
    """

def availableConverters():
    """ Returns a list of available converter names on the
        SmartPrintNG backend.
    """

def ping():
    """ says 'pong' - or something similar """

Support

Support for SmartPrintNG server is currently only available on a project basis.
