ZMS 6: Working with Zope 6

[drfho]

Ref: https://github.com//pull/436

Zope uses native namespace

Zope replaces pkg_resources namespace with PEP 420 native namespace and thus with pip ≥ 21.3 and setuptools ≥ 64.0.0. Zope could find (for the editable-mode) the init-pathes for ZMS only if some backwards-compatibity flags are set in pip installation:

pip install --use-pep517 --config-settings editable_mode=compat -e git+https://github.com/zms-publishing/ZMS.git@main#egg=ZMS`

see: 955d8ba

ZMS installation fitted to new requirements

Now two measure are accomplished to make ZMS run with Zope6:

1. the ZMS-code is reorganised:

./Products/zms
==>
./src/Products/zms

2. the setup.py-file is replaced by the pyproject.toml-file

Important Note: ZMS6 needs to be installed for registering the new code-paths (you cannot just git-pull the ZMS6-code over an existing ZMS5 installation.
For installing the branch in editable mode use:

pip install -e git+https://github.com/zms-publishing/ZMS.git@zms6#egg=ZMS

This gitignore allows to use a symlink ln -s src/Products Products for branch-switching between zms6 and main-branch in a primariliy PEP517/setup.py-based installation

Local smoke testing of ZMS6 with new src-layout

• Python-3.14.2 + Zope-6.0b2 ✅ -> next major runtime versions work
• Python-3.13.5 + Zope-5.13 ✅ -> current runtime versions keep working

-> straightforward development by merging to main branch may work @drfho
-> we will double check with our target environments in February @OscarMeier
