How to use zc.datetimewidget with Zope2

1. Add gocept.datetimewidget egg to your instance

This should automatically install the following dependencies:

• zc.datetimewidget, zc.i18n and zc.resourcelibrary

2. Make sure the correct set of zcml gets loaded.

If you use a custom site.zcml, Include the following IN THIS ORDER:

<!-- Enable zc.datetimewidget to load its zcml.
     Do not include zc.resourcelibrarys configure.zcml, as this
     will not work in z2. -->
<include package="zc.resourcelibrary" file="meta.zcml" />
<!-- Contains a copy of the resource directory of zc.datetimewidget
     registered as a browser:resourceDirectory.
     Also contains a viewlet manager with viewlets providing html
     snippets for including the javascripts in your templates (see below). -->
<include package="gocept.datetimewidget" />
<include package="zc.datetimewidget" />
<!-- Replace the formlib datetimewidget with the zc one. -->
<includeOverrides package="zc.datetimewidget" />
<!-- Overwrite the zc.resourcelibrary resourcedirectory
     of zc.datetimewidget with a browser:resourceDirectory. -->
<includeOverrides package="gocept.datetimewidget" />

If you use the zcml parameter of plone.recipe.zope2instance you can just set:

zcml = zc.resourcelibrary-meta
       gocept.datetimewidget
       zc.datetimewidget
       zc.datetimewidget-overrides
       gocept.datetimewidget-overrides

3. Add javascript resources to your templates.

Place a line like this in a template where your forms will be displayed:

<tal:jsviewlets replace="structure provider:zc.datetimewidget.resources" />

Or make sure the following resources are loaded (i.e. using plone portal_javascript/portal_css):

/++resource++zc.datetimewidget/calendar-system.css
/++resource++zc.datetimewidget/calendar.js
/++resource++zc.datetimewidget/datetimewidget.js
/++resource++zc.datetimewidget/languages/calendar-en.js
/++resource++zc.datetimewidget/calendar-setup.js
