<p class=MsoNormal>To all my fellow zope experts,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am not very proficient in zope. I need to extract all the data
from a data.fs (zope filesystem) into a database. Basically all it contains is
users and notes about users etc. So it’s a note taking system. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So basically I am trying to recover some data from a zope.fs
file and I have no clue how to get about it. How do I being to read the data
from this file? So far I have the following: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>#!/usr/bin/python<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>from ZODB.FileStorage import FileStorage<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>storage = FileStorage('./zope_data.fs', read_only=1)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>iter = storage.iterator()<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>try:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> while True:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> transaction =
iter.next()<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> for rec in
transaction:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
print rec<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>except:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> pass<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>but it gives me a bunch of: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><ZODB.FileStorage.FileStorage.Record instance at
0xb7cdb4ec><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>How do I change that into human readable form? Where I can
get the notes associated to the person etc so that I can populate this other
database with this information. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Any help would be much appreciated. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Cheers, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Nathan. <o:p></o:p></p>
