publisher : render database content as styled html

The lino.modlib.publisher plugin adds the notion of content pages used to produce the pages of a website.

It also adds choicelists, model mixins, actions and a printing build method (lino.modlib.printing.BuildMethods).

This page contains code snippets (lines starting with >>>), which are being tested during our development workflow. The following snippet initializes the demo project used throughout this page.

>>> from lino_book.projects.noi2.startup import *
>>> from django.db.models import Q

Content pages

content page

The basic building unit of a website or book, consisting of a title and a body.

Locations

The locations setting specifies shortcuts for publishing a selection of actors.

As a hosting provider or an application developer you

lino.modlib.publisher.locations

A tuple of 2-tuples (loc, cls) where loc is a location string and cls a data table.

>>> pprint(dd.plugins.publisher.locations)
(('b', lino_xl.lib.blogs.models.LatestEntries),
 ('p', lino.modlib.publisher.ui.Pages),
 ('r', lino.modlib.publisher.ui.RootPages),
 ('f', lino.modlib.uploads.ui.Uploads),
 ('books', lino_xl.lib.books.ui.Books),
 ('src', lino_xl.lib.sources.models.Sources),
 ('sng', lino_xl.lib.songs.ui.LatestSongs),
 ('e', lino_xl.lib.cal.ui.UpcomingEvents),
 ('t', lino_xl.lib.tickets.ui.Tickets),
 ('tp', lino_xl.lib.topics.models.Topics))

When setting this setting (usually in a get_plugin_configs() method), the application developer should specify the data tables using their names. The above locations have been set in lino_cms.lib.cms.settings as follows:

yield ('publisher', 'locations', (
    ('b', 'blogs.LatestEntries'),
    ('p', 'publisher.Pages'),
    ...
    ('t', 'tickets.Tickets'),
    ('tp', 'topics.Topics')))

Named pages

Named pages are pages with a user-given name in their Page name field. If this field is not empty, the page will have this name instead of its primary key in the url.

lino.core.actors.Actor.get_row_by_pk() uses a new class attribute unique_keys, which defaults to ['id'], and on Pages it is overridden to ['id', 'ref'].

Page overrides the Publishable.get_publisher_pk() method to return self.page_name or str(self.pk).

Root pages

>>> ar = rt.login('robin')
>>> options = dict(column_names="id title", display_mode="grid")
>>> ar.show('publisher.RootPages', **options)
===== ===============
 ID    Title
----- ---------------
 1     -Home
 22    (footer)
 40    Laundry
 100   Flying Circus
===== ===============

Hiding the title of a page

>>> publisher.Page.hide_title_marker
'-'

>>> home = publisher.SpecialPages.home.get_object()
>>> home.title
'-Home'
>>> str(home)
'-Home'
>>> repr(home)
"Page #1 ('-Home')"

>>> home.as_str(ar)
'Home'

Multiple domains served by a same Lino sites

The noi2 site has a non-empty host2config and is a showcase of a Lino site that serves multiple domains (Serve multiple domains with a single Lino site).

>>> ar.show(system.SiteConfigs)
==== =========
 ID   Name
---- ---------
 1    Default

 3    Laundry
==== =========

>>> ar.show(users.AllUsers)

 rolf                 900 (Administrator)   Rolf         Rompen
========== ========= ===================== ============ ===========

>>> rt.models_by_base(system.DomainSpecific)
[<class 'lino_noi.lib.groups.models.Group'>, <class
'lino.modlib.publisher.models.Page'>, <class
'lino.modlib.publisher.models.PageType'>, <class
'lino.modlib.users.models.User'>]

This means for example that in a noi, contacts are always shared among all tenants. That’s a decision of the application developer.

>>> ar = rt.login('andy')
>>> ar.get_user().my_domain
SiteConfig #2 ('Circus')
>>> ar.site_config_id

Sharing data to all domains

>>> publisher.Page.objects.filter(my_domain__isnull=True).count()
45
>>> publisher.Page.objects.filter(my_domain_id=1).count()
0
>>> publisher.Page.objects.filter(my_domain_id=2).count()
33
>>> publisher.Page.objects.filter(my_domain_id=3).count()
60

A DomainSpecific data row is shared when its lino.modlib.system.DomainSpecifi.my_domain is empty.

For example in noi2 all page types are shared.

>>> ar.show('publisher.PageTypes')

Translations

The English version of the home page has two translations, i.e. two other Page: rows whose Page.translated_from points to the English original.

>>> home = publisher.Page.objects.get(pk=1)
>>> home.language
'en'

>>> ar = rt.login('robin')
>>> ar.show('publisher.TranslationsByPage', master_instance=home)
`ⓘ <…>`__ `⏏ <…>`__ | (bn) `হোম <…>`__, (de) `Startseite <…>`__

>>> ar.show('publisher.TranslationsByPage', master_instance=home, nosummary=True)
============= ========== ====
 Title         Language   ID
------------- ---------- ----
 -হোম          bn         2
 -Startseite   de         3
============= ========== ====

>>> publisher.Page.objects.get(pk=1).language
'en'
>>> publisher.Page.objects.get(pk=2).language
'bn'
>>> publisher.Page.objects.get(pk=3).language
'de'

When a request asks for a home page using its primary key or its page name, Lino does not redirect:

>>> home1 = beautiful_soup(test_client.get("/").content.decode())
>>> home2 = beautiful_soup(test_client.get("/p/1").content.decode())

>>> home1.title == home2.title
True

Memo references and translations

When the body of a named page in language 1 contains a memo command [ref page:2], then the end user wants to link to the specified page without redirecting back to the current language.

>>> sar = rt.login(renderer=dd.plugins.publisher.renderer, show_urls=True)
>>> home.memo2html(sar, None)
'<a href="/" style="text-decoration:none; white-space:nowrap;">Home</a>'
>>> publisher.Page.objects.get(pk=2).memo2html(sar, None)
'<a href="/?ul=bn" style="text-decoration:none; white-space:nowrap;">হোম</a>'

>>> with translation.override('de'):
...     home.memo2html(sar, None)
'<a href="/?ul=de" style="text-decoration:none; white-space:nowrap;">Home</a>'

Redirections and translations

When a request asks for a page that is in another language than the requested language, then Lino redirects me to the corresponding page in the requested language.

>>> test_client.force_login(rt.login('chloe').user)

>>> test_client.get("/p/1?ul=de")
<HttpResponseRedirect status_code=302, "text/html; charset=utf-8", url="/?ul=de">

>>> test_client.get("/p/2?ul=de")
<HttpResponseRedirect status_code=302, "text/html; charset=utf-8", url="/?ul=de">

There is no redirect when asking with ul=de for a page that is already German:

>>> test_client.get("/p/3?ul=de")
<HttpResponse status_code=200, "text/html;charset="utf-8"">

Let’s define a function and use it do more testing. We fetch the page and then use BeautifulSoup to extract the the <title> HTML tag, which most browsers use as title of the window or tab that shows a page.

>>> def test(url):
...     res = test_client.get(url)
...     if res.status_code == 302:
...         print(f"redirect to {res.url}")
...         res = test_client.get(res.url)
...     soup = beautiful_soup(res.content)
...     if not soup.title:
...         raise Exception(f"No title tag in {soup}")
...     print(soup.title.text)
...     for a in soup.find_all('a', {"class": "l-lngsel"}):
...         print(f"{a.text} -> {a['href']}")

>>> test("/p/1?ul=de")
redirect to /?ul=de
noi2
en -> /?ul=en
bn -> /?ul=bn

Yes, page #1 is the Home page, whose title is hidden. And a hidden title is also hidden in the <title> HTML tag. So let’s use another named page for the following tests.

>>> test("/p/4?ul=de")
redirect to /p/about?ul=de
Über uns – noi2
en -> /p/about?ul=en
bn -> /p/about?ul=bn

>>> test("/p/5?ul=de")
redirect to /p/about?ul=de
Über uns – noi2
en -> /p/about?ul=en
bn -> /p/about?ul=bn

When using the Page.page_name of a page instead of its primary key, there is no redirect because Lino will look up the page directly in the requested language:

>>> test("/p/terms")
Terms and conditions – noi2
bn -> /p/terms?ul=bn
de -> /p/terms?ul=de

‘None’ has no attribute ‘get_html_page_title’

The following requests caused an internal server error until 20260525:

>>> test("/b")
Latest blog entries – noi2
en -> /b?ul=en
bn -> /b?ul=bn
de -> /b?ul=de

>>> test("/e")
Upcoming events – noi2
en -> /e?ul=en
bn -> /e?ul=bn
de -> /e?ul=de

The previous_page fields have been updated:

TODO: run the following test in another demo project where we don’t have side effects caused by Bengali language.

Skins

lino.modlib.publisher.skin

Which skin to use. Default value is ‘boots’.

Currently the only alternative to ‘boots’ is ‘silly’, which is there just to show an alternative. You can see it by activating a line in the noi2 demo project settings.py file.

lino.modlib.publisher.use_markup

(Deprecated)

Whether to use markup (instead of wysiwyg) for editing content.

When this is False, the body of pages gets edited using a wysiwyg editor and stored as (bleached) html.
