How to create a new paragraph type?
===================================
+
+Paragraphs are components or blocs that contain elements/fields and provide one or many renderer methods to compose
+the front office website
+
+In this example we will create a contact paragraph to display at the user, who to contact
+
+1) Define a paragraph Interface
+"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+At first we create a new paragraph interface.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ CONTACT_PARAGRAPH_TYPE = 'Contact'
+ CONTACT_PARAGRAPH_RENDERERS = 'PyAMS.paragraph.contact.renderers'
+
+
+ class IContactParagraph(IBaseParagraph):
+ """Contact paragraph interface"""
+
+ name = TextLine(title=_("Contact identity"),
+ description=_("Name of the contact"),
+ required=True)
+
+
+ photo = ImageField(title=_("Photo"),
+ description=_("Use 'browse' button to select contact picture"),
+ required=False)
+
+ address = Text(title=_("Address"), required=False)
+
+ contact_email = MailAddressField(title=_("Email address"),
+ description=_("Contact email address"),
+ required=False)
+
+ renderer = Choice(title=_("Contact template"),
+ description=_("Presentation template used for this contact"),
+ vocabulary=CONTACT_PARAGRAPH_RENDERERS,
+ default='default')
+
+
+
+
+2) Implement the interface
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+An implementation of the interface
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ @implementer(IContactParagraph)
+ @factory_config(provided=IContactPhoneParagraph)
+ class ContactParagraph(RenderedContentMixin, BaseParagraph):
+ """Contact paragraph"""
+
+
+ icon_class = 'fa-id-card-o'
+ icon_hint = _("Contact card")
+
+ name = FieldProperty(IContactParagraph['name'])
+ _photo = FileProperty(IContactParagraph['photo'])
+
+ address = FieldProperty(IContactParagraph['address'])
+ contact_email = FieldProperty(IContactParagraph['contact_email'])
+ renderer = FieldProperty(IContactParagraph['renderer'])
+
+ @property
+ def photo(self):
+ return self._photo
+
+ @photo.setter
+ def photo(self, value):
+ self._photo = value
+ if IImage.providedBy(self._photo):
+ alsoProvides(self._photo, IResponsiveImage)
+
+
+3) renderer Vocabulary
+""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+The list of rendered available for a paragraph is build automatically and is based on adapters that provide this interface
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ @vocabulary_config(name=CONTACT_PARAGRAPH_RENDERERS)
+ class ContactParagraphRendererVocabulary(RenderersVocabulary):
+ """Contact paragraph renderers vocabulary"""
+
+ content_interface = IContactParagraph
+
+
+.. seealso::
+
+ :ref:`rendererhowto`
+
+
+How integrate a paragraph in the ZMI?
+=====================================
+
+To display and manage the new paragraph in the ZMI, you should create this associated forms
+
+1) paragraph factory
+""""""""""""""""""""
+
+To create a new element inside the zodb, we need a container to this element. PyAMS provide
+`IParagraphContainerTarget`, it's the default container for all paragraphs. We could use this container interface
+as context to create a new paragraph.
+
+We need to create two views
+
+- *HTML*
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ @pagelet_config(name='add-contact-paragraph.html', context=IParagraphContainerTarget, layer=IPyAMSLayer,
+ permission=MANAGE_CONTENT_PERMISSION)
+ class ContactParagraphAddForm(AdminDialogAddForm):
+ """Contact paragraph add form"""
+
+ legend = _("Add new contact card")
+ dialog_class = 'modal-large'
+ icon_css_class = 'fa fa-fw fa-id-card-o'
+
+ fields = field.Fields(IContactParagraph).omit('__parent__', '__name__', 'visible')
+ ajax_handler = 'add-contact-paragraph.json'
+ edit_permission = MANAGE_CONTENT_PERMISSION
+
+ def updateWidgets(self, prefix=None):
+ super(ContactParagraphAddForm, self).updateWidgets(prefix)
+ if 'address' in self.widgets:
+ self.widgets['address'].widget_css_class = 'textarea'
+
+ def create(self, data):
+ return ContactParagraph()
+
+ def add(self, object):
+ IParagraphContainer(self.context).append(object)
+
+- *JSON*
+
+.. code-block:: python
+ @view_config(name='add-contact-paragraph.json', context=IParagraphContainerTarget, request_type=IPyAMSLayer,
+ permission=MANAGE_CONTENT_PERMISSION, renderer='json', xhr=True)
+ class ContactParagraphAJAXAddForm(BaseParagraphAJAXAddForm, ContactParagraphAddForm):
+ """Contact paragraph add form, JSON renderer"""
+
+
+2) Append the paragraph addform button in the menu
+""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
+
+We have created a new form and we want add a quick access button to create a new paragraph
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ @viewlet_config(name='add-contact-paragraph.menu', context=IParagraphContainerTarget, view=IParagraphContainerView,
+ layer=IPyAMSLayer, manager=IToolbarAddingMenu, weight=600)
+ class ContactParagraphAddMenu(BaseParagraphAddMenu):
+ """Contact paragraph add menu"""
+
+ label = _("Contact card...")
+ label_css_class = 'fa fa-fw fa-id-card-o'
+ url = 'add-contact-paragraph.html'
+ paragraph_type = CONTACT_PARAGRAPH_TYPE
