(一意な識別子 (UIDs))

UID is a unique, non-human-readable identifier for a content object which stays on the object even if the object is moved.

Plone uses UIDs for

• Storing content-to-content references (Archetypes, ReferenceField)
• Linking by UIDs (Kupu) - this enables persistent links even though the object is moved

警告

Dexterity content framework does not use UIDS, but integer ids (intids) to manage references.

オブジェクトの UID を取得する

Use UID() accessor function:

>>> site.events.UID()
'ce380ef0f10a85beb864025928e1819b'

UID でオブジェクトを探す

Use lookupObject() in reference catalog.

>>> site.reference_catalog.lookupObject('ce380ef0f10a85beb864025928e1819b')
<ATBTreeFolder at /test/events>

None will be returned if there is content item with matching UID (the item has been deleted).
