Plone Futures
- 1.
- 2. It's great tohave Plone back here in the US. It's been far too long. To our international visitors, it's wonderful to have you here and I'm glad we could get you here for one last visit before the wall goes up. Welcome to Boston!
- 3.
- 4. This is alwaysthe hardest of the "what's coming in Plone" talks to give. We've spent the last few years talking about what Plone 5 would look like and how we were progressing towards that. And it was a hugely sucessful release. ^ Lots of positive attention, Dexterity, Deco.
- 5. But the .1release is always the super boring one. Plone 5.1 The release where we apologize for everything we did to you in 5.0.
- 6. Prevent over-generation ofjs/css files (1 of each per add-on). Allow add-ons to add their resources to “default” (available at all times) or “logged-in” (only for authenticated users) bundles. https://github.com/plone/documentation/pull/529/files Meta bundles generation
- 7. (have to checkmultiple places to see if package is installed) Largely unused and an old implementation of OpenID. Remove it from core, live as add-on. Get rid of portal_quickinstaller • Currently two ways of installing products: GenericSetup and CMFQuickInstaller • From a user standpoint, needlessly complicated. • From developer standpoint, also needlessly complicated • @@installer • Only handle GS profiles • Standardize on "default" and "uninstall" profile names
- 8. Add actions controlpanel to Plone. one of the main reasons people need to go into the ZMI right now. Portal actions control panel
- 9. Scale images inplone.scale such that they will look good on devices with pixel ratios greater that 1. More and more devices these days can display images with higher resolution than the html/css resolution. Plone however often serves images that are scaled to the exact same size as html/css resolution, while a lot of devices can display twice the resolution. Retina image scales
- 10. Read image EXIFinformation to automatically rotate them if necessary. Auto-Rotation for Images
- 11.
- 12. Add new optionto search control panel setting the default ordering of @@search Easily change default search order
- 13. Add installed, not-installed,have, not-have conditions to registry.xml records to control whether or not theyʼre imported. Particularly useful when it comes to registering resources in add-ons that target multiple versions of Plone. conditionally import registry records • installed • not-installed • have • not-have
- 14. Merge it intoCMFPlone, so there's one less package. Add a new Plone control panel, so you don't have to go through the ZMI, with a cleaner, more usable interface. Merge Products.RedirectionTool into core • Merge into CMFPlone • New control panel
- 15. Registry Improvements • Addability to add/edit/delete records from control panel • Import/export capability
- 16. Remove support forold style resource registries • Drop use of cssregistry.xml, jsregistry.xml • Fail loudly, so users know why the old way doesn't work
- 17. Add ability torequire email verification before account is activated. Particularly important on self-registration-enabled sites. Merge collective.emailconfirmationregistration into core
- 18. Assimilate collective.indexing • Queued indexing,happens only once per transaction • Significant performance improvements • Allows other indexers (like SOLR) to be notified on any indexing operations
- 19. Begin removing existingBackbone code, more use of React instead. Use React in core, deprecate Backbone
- 20.
- 21. Which I'm prettysure was written by a spambot, because I don't understand any of it. Reset define in RequireJS after bundles are loaded “Reset the requirejs define global variable in Plone so add-on developers do not have to learn how to use requirejs if they are including js that expect requirejs to be used.”
- 22. Whereas Diazo handlestheming -- the entire site design, Mosaic is focused on just the layout/display of content - Create complete page layouts, through the web, by placing tiles of content the page. - This can be text, images, specific field values, collection results, embeddable media. - Responsive grid, collapse nicely on smaller screens - Page layouts can be saved and reused, set as default views for new content. - And the ability to limit which users can use the which Mosaic • Content layout • "Tiles"
- 24.
- 25. <div class="mosaic-grid-row"> <div class="mosaic-grid-cellmosaic-width-half mosaic-position-leftmost"> <div class="movable removable mosaic-tile mosaic-ingredients-tile"> <div class="mosaic-tile-content"> <div data-tile="./@@plone.app.standardtiles.field?field=ingredients"></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="mosaic-grid-cell mosaic-width-half mosaic-position-half"> <div class="movable removable mosaic-tile mosaic-directions-tile"> <div class="mosaic-tile-content"> <div data-tile="./@@plone.app.standardtiles.field?field=directions"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div>

- 28. Extending this further... •Using diazo, plone.resource for ttw application development • Asko: “fat themes”
- 29. collective.themefragments ^ Shoving moreinto themes, so that theyʼre no longer just design, but also functionality ^ Export current site setup as “theme” ^ Do we need to worry about this? Drupal is notorious for having themes that decide things like which text editor youʼll be using Fat Theme • Theme fragments (Zope PageTemplate files) living in theme package, rendered as a tile. (collective.themefragments) • Design + Functionality • Embed genericsetup profiles in zipped theme packages (collective.themesitesetup)) • Dexterity content types • TTW permissions ^ Maybe these aren't just themes,
- 30. We can alsodo some pretty amazing stuff with this concept. This is Rapido, you can go to Eric Brehault's talk to hear more about it. But I guarantee you'll be hearing a lot about this in the next few years.

- 43. Plone 2020 • APIs(hide complexity) • REST API (plone.restapi) • Python API (plone.api)
- 44. Plone 2020 • ImproveTTW customization • Improve training/documentation
- 45. Training this weekhas been huge success, greatly improved our available training material. ^ Training as vital to bringing in new users/contributors training.plone.org
- 46. Plone 2020 • Cleanercodebase • Simplify structure • Remove unused functionality/code
- 47. Alpine City Sprint ^[ZopeResurrection Sprint](https:// blog.gocept.com/2016/10/04/zope-resurrection- part-2- First step towards making Plone Python 3 compatbile ^ With Python 2 nearing end-of-life, we need to be making our way towards Python 3. ^ Interim step for Plone Zope2 / Update Dependencies • Update dependencies to latest versions • ZTK • Zope • ZODB3 • Most are Python 3 compatible • Minimal cleanup
- 48.
- 49. Content management systemshave traditionally been broken down into three layers ^ Holds and serves the content. ^ The functionality that allows you to add/edit/delete and otherwise manage the content ^ And the one that provides the visual representation of that content So when we use the term "headless", we're talking about removing that final presentation layer, creating a clear separation between the front and back ends of the CMS. Three layers of CMS • Content Storage • Content Management • Content Presentation
- 50. Mobile growing intoa larger percentage of traffic. Headless positions plone well for succeeding as things trend in that (mobile) direction. CMS Front end • Traditional Web • Dynamic • Static • Mobile • Native App/Application • IoT • Other systems/services
- 51. Is the CMSthe center of the experience or a part of the whole?
- 52. The thing is,the recent trends have leveled the playing field. The headless CMS and microservices reduce the reliance that organizations have on commercial CMSs. It's harder
- 53. Existing options fromother old-school CMS tend to focus on adding an API and saying "just ignore the frontend" ^ Typically deemed “Decoupled” The Decoupled CMS * Existing system + API
- 54. If that's goodenough for us, we're already there. Yay! plone.rest provides the basic infrastructure that allows us to build RESTful endpoints in Plone. ^ plone.restapi integrates that with the existing Plone functionality ^ In alpha The Decoupled CMS • plone.rest • plone.restapi
- 55. “Note, however, thatmany of the traditional products that now offer headless capabilities were not really architected for these use cases. In fact, when some of those products were created, multi-channel only meant delivery to multiple websites. Building these capabilities is only adding to their complexity.” --Apoorv Durga
- 56. So we said,yeah, ok. We're already talking about simplifying our stack.
- 57. Three Teams • RESTAPI • Front-end • Works with plone.server or plone 5 + restapi • Basic plone ui: navigation, toolbar, login/logout • Handles form generation, read json schema, determine widgets, • Theme, which can be overridden at build time • server side rendering via Angular Universal • views (add/edit/view, or custom)
- 58. If you wantsomething fun, have an american, fin, and catalan all try to spell 'aiohttp' Three Teams • Back-end • aiohttp-based HTTP server (asynchronous, handles multiple concurrent transactions) • Plone's Dexterity framework (sans views/forms) • Zope Tool Kit (ZTK) • ZODB • Python 3.5+
- 59. Concurrent development • Twoapproaches, in opposite directions: • Start with everything and remove what we don’t need/want. • Start with nothing and add back everything we want.
- 66. When we talkabout removing everything, people get a bit freaked out. WE've been around for 15 years now and we've already removed a lot of old and/or unused functionality. Let's take a moment to remember those we've left behind and how far we've come.
