Hi,
We've been using Margritte-Seaside for about 6 years now. And we've
been hacking around and monkey patching magritte to force it into
submission.
I'm trying to improve on this approach, as you may agree. I would in
general like to understand Margritte better, but perhaps start with:
how do you suggest we customise the rendering of a described
component? We know of a few hooks, but is there some documentation I
can read on this subject?
I know my question is vague, but I have so many, and would like to
just start somewhere and then dive into more specifics. Please let me
know if I should dive into specifics.
Further, is this the best mailing list to post on?
Thanks
Otto

The most important change we made in QCMagritte is the chaining of
the visitors used to do the rendering. That made it possible to work with
a separate visitor for a.o. translations, rights and roles, and bootstrap
instead of plain seaside.
In 2013 and 2014 we presented QCMagritte at Esug, so there are videos
available on youtube.

Yep.

I had a peek at QCMagritte and need to spend more time there. If we've
got an extensive app built with Magritte, is it a major issue to use
QCMagritte?

The chaining of visitors is what allowed us to remove most
duplication,
and avoid a lot of special components. The navigation support through
QCParentObject is also going to lead to some code changes.

I've always wondered why you forked rather than fixing Magritte. I've made a
lot of enhancements and non-backward compatible changes to Magritte with
zero pushback. It's a shame to maintain two projects...

It is not a fork, it is just add-ons and a certain way of using Magritte.

Ah! That, I was not expecting. Now I will have to take a much closer look at
QC :)

Which doesn't mean that it shouldn't be better integrated and
probably
replace some default behavior...
