Sources
=======
Concepts
--------
Sources are designed with three concepts:
- The source itself - an iterable
This can return any kind of object it wants. It doesn't have to care
for browser representation, encoding, ...
- A way to map a value from the iterable to something that can be used
for form *values* - this is called a token. A token is commonly a
(unique) 7bit representation of the value.
- A way to map a value to something that can be displayed to the user -
this is called a title
The last two elements are dispatched using a so called `term`. The
ITitledTokenizedTerm interface contains a triple of (value, token, title).
Additionally there are some lookup functions to perform the mapping
between values and terms and tokens and terms.
Sources that require context use a special factory: a context source
binder that is called with the context and instanciates the source when
it is actually used.
Sources in Fields
-----------------
A choice field can be constructed with a source or source name. When a source
is used, it will be used as the source for valid values.
Create a source for all odd numbers.
.. doctest::
>>> from zope import interface
>>> from zope.schema.interfaces import ISource, IContextSourceBinder
>>> @interface.implementer(ISource)
... class MySource(object):
... divisor = 2
... def __contains__(self, value):
... return bool(value % self.divisor)
>>> my_source = MySource()
>>> 1 in my_source
True
>>> 2 in my_source
False
>>> from zope.schema import Choice
>>> choice = Choice(__name__='number', source=my_source)
>>> bound = choice.bind(object())
>>> bound.vocabulary
<...MySource...>
If a IContextSourceBinder is passed as the `source` argument to Choice, it's
`bind` method will be called with the context as its only argument. The
result must implement ISource and will be used as the source.
.. doctest::
>>> _my_binder_called = []
>>> def my_binder(context):
... _my_binder_called.append(context)
... source = MySource()
... source.divisor = context.divisor
... return source
>>> interface.directlyProvides(my_binder, IContextSourceBinder)
>>> class Context(object):
... divisor = 3
>>> choice = Choice(__name__='number', source=my_binder)
>>> bound = choice.bind(Context())
>>> len(_my_binder_called)
1
>>> bound.vocabulary
<...MySource...>
>>> bound.vocabulary.divisor
3
When using IContextSourceBinder together with default value, it's
impossible to validate it on field initialization. Let's check if
initalization doesn't fail in that case.
.. doctest::
>>> choice = Choice(__name__='number', source=my_binder, default=2)
>>> del _my_binder_called[:]
>>> bound = choice.bind(Context())
>>> len(_my_binder_called)
1
>>> bound.validate(bound.default)
>>> bound.validate(3)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ConstraintNotSatisfied: 3
It's developer's responsibility to provide a default value that fits the
constraints when using context-based sources.
