Add an API to be able to construct urls
[ this was merged, but later reverted by f236d898 because of a regression ]
This merge request is trying to provide an API so that we can construct urls in a more organised manner than manipulating strings.
The motivation, started from this merge request: !333, where absolute_url is overriden for Web Section and Web Site. Then we found that we have to do many dirty changes like:
absolute_url python: here.absolute_url();
absolute_url python: absolute_url[:-1] if absolute_url.endswith('/') else absolute_url;(more of those in f601d7a5).
So we said we should make an API to have an organised manner, like we have e.g. Base_redirect to handle redirects.
- First commit adds this as a script in erp5_core, along with a test.
- Second commit uses it. It is not on my scope to change all erp5 code, but I focused on changing on the things I already had to in f601d7a5
@romain , @kazuhiko please make comments. Tests passed, but not on the final revision (did some amendments) and I think better not to re-run suite before getting comments. Also, @tatuya , I think you are responsible for ERP5 interfaces, so I would like your opinion if erp5_core is the good place, or maybe some other BT or product.
My plan would be to merge this and then !333 rebased on this. But in any-way this should be separate from !333.
