[web2py] Resizing a user uploaded image
How can i make it so that when a user uploads an image, it automatically gets resized to a specified dimension? Thanks! --
Re: [web2py] Re: Resizing a user uploaded image
I put imageutils in my app's modules directory, then I added: Field(thumbnail, upload, uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder, 'uploads', 'profiles', 'thumbs')), to the appropriate database table, and below that, in the same file (db.py) I wrote: from imageutils import THUMB db.tutor.thumbnail.compute = lambda row: THUMB(row.picture, 200, 200) but the resizing doesn't seem to work.

[web2py] Delete a user
What's the correct way of deleting a user? Say someone creates an account on my page and wants to remove him/herself. How can I do this? Thank you! --
Re: [web2py] Delete a user
Well, I know I can do this from the admin interface but I was wondering how
a user can remove himself from the website if he so wishes.
Should I put the code `db(db.auth_user.email==some...@domain.com).delete()`
in a {{=A(_href=action)}} or is that bad practice? I want the user to be
able to delete himself.

If you have shell access.
Go to your shell
python web2py.py -S yourappname -M

The user with some...@domain.com is now deleted!
If you dont hace shell access, just go to your admi interface, database
adminitration and delete from auth_user table.

If edit_record is called via ajax and not within a component,
than response.flash is not displayed because there is no view associated to
the callback. You can do:
def edit_record():
...
if request.vars.deltutorlink:
response.js = jQuery('.flash').html('deltutorlink

Guys I know this sounds simple but I'm having a hard time displaying
uploaded images. I have an upload field in my model where logged in users
can upload an image. But in my views when I try to do
{{=IMG(_src=URL('uploads/', row.image))}} where row is a variable that
refers to db(db.auth_user.id 0).select() nothing is being returned.
However, row.image returns a string which is the name of the file.
How can I display the image correctly?
Thanks!

[web2py] Tick checkbox if user has_membership
I want to tick a checkbox if a user has membership to something, else leave
unticked.
I tried putting it in the Field's default variable as such,
Field('is_tutor', 'boolean', default=auth.has_membership(auth.user_id,
'Tutors')) but this is causing an error. What's the correct way to do this?

[web2py] Unable to update database
I am unable to update entries in my database. I think I have an idea of why
this may be, but I'm not sure how to go about fixing this.
In my controller, I have:
tform = SQLFORM.factory(
Field('is_tutor', 'boolean'),
*[f for f in db.tutor if f.name.startswith('t_')],
table_name='tutor')
if tform.process().accepted:
if tform.vars.is_tutor:

auth.add_membership('Tutors')
db(db.tutor.user == auth.user_id).update(
t_Hourly_Rate = tform.vars.t_Hourly_Rate,
t_Image = tform.vars.t_Image,
t_Qualifications = tform.vars.t_Qualifications,
t_Subjects = tform.vars.t_Subjects,
t_Location = tform.vars.t_Location,

)
else:
if auth.has_membership('Tutors'):
auth.del_membership('Tutors')
response.flash = T('Profile updated!')
elif tform.errors:
response.flash = T('There was an error with your submission')
However, when I submit the form I am just getting a bunch of 'None' values. I
think the problem may be that
I'm trying to update db(db.tutor.user == auth.user_id) but if db.tutor.user
does not exist, it is not being assigned
the value of the currently logged in user (auth.user_id)
How can I go about fixing this??

[web2py] Re: Unable to update database
Ok that seems to have done the trick. However, it's creating a new record
every time which means that the logged in user does not refer to the tutor
table. Does the id field have to be the same as auth.user_id? The id field
seems to be generated automatically. In my tutor table I have a line that
says Field('user', 'reference auth.user.id') but the relation does not seem
like it's being made...

[web2py] Re: Unable to update database
Alright I think I got it to work although I don't know if it's correct.
Basically, I added a user variable to the update_or_insert() function, as
follows:
db.tutor.update_or_insert(db.tutor.user==auth.user_id,
user = auth.user_id,
t_Hourly_Rate = tform.vars.t_Hourly_Rate,
t_Image = tform.vars.t_Image,
t_Qualifications = tform.vars.t_Qualifications,
t_Subjects = tform.vars.t_Subjects,
t_Location = tform.vars.t_Location,
t_Biography = tform.vars.t_Biography
)
My reasoning was that user would be set automatically, since in my db.py
file I said
db.define_table('tutor',
Field('user', 'reference auth.user.id'),
...)
But apparently, I need to set that variable. So how does the actual
reference work? I'm not sure I get it. Anyway, it seems to be updating the
table now so, thanks for the help ;)

This is not correct. It should be 'reference [table name]', so in this
case, 'reference auth_user'. Perhaps you are attempting to set the default
to be auth.user.id (same as auth.user_id) -- to do that, do:
Field('user', 'reference auth_user', default=auth.user_id)

No, the URL /download/image... does not imply web2py is looking the the
download directory. Remember, URLs do not map to directories (with the
exception of static files). In web2py, URLs always map to applications,
controllers, and functions. In your URL, it looks like the application and
controller are excluded, so download will be interpreted by web2py as the
function, and then the filename will be interpreted as request.args(0).
This URL will call the download() function in default.py, which will
ultimately call response.download(request, db), and that function will pull
the filename from request.args(0).
There is a problem with the filename, though. It starts with image,
which appears to be the field name, but it should actually start with
[table_name].[field_name]. I'm not sure how that could have happened. Do
you have the same problem with new images that you upload? Do their
filenames start with the table name, or just with image?

Re: [web2py] Re: Displaying an image

Also, if you specify a custom uploadfolder, you'll need to make sure that
the db.auth_user.t_image field has that uploadfolder specified as well,

reference both in the appended auth_user fields and in SQLFORM.factory.
Finally, you can specify the name of the dummy table used by

So, maybe something like this:

tform = SQLFORM.factory(..., image_field, ..., table_name='auth.user')
Actually, you should probably do that with all the fields in

make the form. As it is, the field definitions in db.auth_user don't even
have the correct field types defined. You could first add all the fields to
db.auth_user, and then do something like this:
tform = SQLFORM.factory(*[f for f in db.auth_user if f.name.startswith(

That will include all the fields from db.auth_user that start with t_.
Finally, note that there will not be any errors in the form until you
process it, so your condition that checks for errors will never find any.
First call, form.process(), and then check for errors.

Yes I did but, the reason why I hadn't extended those directly in auth_user
was precisely because I had noticed that, since some of those fields are
required, when a user signs up they are prevented from signing up because
those other auth fields have not been input. So what I'll do instead is
just create another table for tutors and put all the fields there. Then in
the SQLFORM.factory I'll use that list comprehension that you wrote to add
all the fields. This is what I had done initially but I was having lots of
trouble referencing the current logged in user.

The last line was just an example -- if you don't need all the fields,

solution (i.e., properly naming and defining both the image field and the

Now I can't even sign a user up anymore because it's requesting all those

You are using SQLFORM.factory to handle the upload, but the table and
field names used there do not match the table or field names where the
records are actually stored, so response.download() cannot find the
appropriate table or field. By default, SQLFORM.factory uses no_table as
the dummy table name, and your code uses image as the field name. So,
your image files will end up with names that start with no_table.image.
As a result, response.download(request, db) will look for a db.no_table
table with an image field, but obviously won't find it. Instead, your
image filenames are actually stored in db.auth_user.t_image, so you need to
make sure the filenames get generated with names starting with
auth_user.t_image.
Also, if you specify a custom uploadfolder, you'll need to make sure
that the db.auth_user.t_image field has that uploadfolder specified as
well, because response.download() checks the actual db field to determine
the uploadfolder. The easiest approach might be to define the field once
and reference both in the appended auth_user fields and in SQLFORM.factory.
Finally, you can specify the name of the dummy table used by
SQLFORM.factory by passing a table_name argument.
So, maybe something like this:
image_field = Field('t_image', 'upload', ..., uploadfolder=[your upload
folder])
auth.settings.extra_fields['**auth_user'] = [..., image_field, ...]
...
tform = SQLFORM.factory(..., image_field, ..., table_name='auth.user')
Actually, you should probably do that with all the fields in
SQLFORM.factory -- define them all once and use them in db.auth_user and to
make the form. As it is, the field definitions in db.auth_user don't even
have the correct field types defined. You could first add all the fields to
db.auth_user, and then do something like this:
tform = SQLFORM.factory(*[f for f in db.auth_user if f.name.startswith(
't_')], ...)
That will include all the fields from db.auth_user that start with t_.
Finally, note that there will not be any errors in the form until you
process it, so your condition that checks for errors will never find any.
First call, form.process(), and then check for errors.

[web2py] Re: Displaying an image
Hmm for some reason it's not working for me. I took a look at the source
code and this is the HTML that is being generated:
img src=/download/image.a6e29a6f36771685.e58699e79c9f2e4a5047.JPG
view-source:http://127.0.0.1:8000/download/tutor.image.a6e29a6f36771685.e58699e79c9f2e4a5047.JPG
/
And this is what I have in my view that is generating that code:
{{=IMG(_src=URL('default', 'download', args=row.image))}}
so it seems to be taking the 'download' directory and looking for the image
there, but as aforementioned, I've set the directory for these images to be
in:
Field('image', 'upload',
uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder,'uploads/profiles/')
Should I just change the view to read URL('uploads/profiles/', 'download',
args=row.image) or would that be an inelegant solution?

Field('modified_on', 'datetime', requires=IS_DATETIME(),
writable=False, readable=False, default=request.utcnow),
table_name='tutor')

True. If it is, I need to add that info to the current logged user's

If the form is submitted the controller will receive that field as

When you get to the form.process() line the value has been already been
shipped to the database. You must act before: there is the onvalidation
callback (but it's generally used for other things, like additional
validation).
If you want to skip form processing at all (and possibly doing some other

depending on the checkbox) the corresponding create/update record by hand

Another question has come to mind...I have the following code in my

if tform.process().accepted:
if tform.vars.is_tutor:

db.auth_user.insert(
a_bunch_of_fields = tform.vars.a_bunch_of_fields)
else:

auth.del_membership('Tutors')
db.auth_user.delete()
In the last line, db.auth_user.delete(), I'd like to delete all the fields
in the database that I'd write if the is_tutor boolean is checked. But I'm
wondering, I'd have to specify that it only needs to delete these for the
logged in user. How can I do this? Also, is deleting the correct thing to
do or should I just reset the values to a default, like or None ?

There's some problem with what I'm doing now.

In my db.py file, I am extending auth with
auth.settings.extra_fields['auth_user']= [
Field http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/Field('t_image'),

Another option -- each table row or div containing a field input has an
id that starts with [tablename]_, so you could use a jQuery selector like:
jQuery('[id^=tutor_]').hide()
That will hide all table rows whose id's start with tutor_, which
should be all the field inputs in the form.

What I'd like to do is not just hide one field, but hide all the

Is there a shortcut to do this or must I input all the rows
manually?
Also, another thing I'd like to add in the jQuery is, if the radio
button was checked, filled out, and then unchecked, I want the values
to
not be stored but to be erased. I assume I'd have to add something
like
.val('') but I'm not sure where to do that.

[web2py] Re: Proper way to reference logged user
OK I think that's probably the easiest solution for now.
How can I do this? Do I need to add
auth.add_group('role', 'description')
in my db.py file and then have a form that when a user submits, runs
auth.add_membership(group_id, user_id)
in the controller? Or do both of these go inside the controller? I guess the
groups only need to be created once, which is why I am assuming the first line
goes in db.py

Re: [web2py] Re: Proper way to reference logged user
Hmm I'm still confused. Sorry guys.
So the way I'm displaying the two forms is through two tables in the database
that I've defined. Consequently, in the controller I have something like
form = SQLFORM(db.tutor)
Below that I will have something like if form.process().accepted:
If not auth.has_membership(group):
auth.add_membership(group)
However, one of the elements in the form is a checkbox. If that box is
unchecked, it needs to remove the user from the group. How can I check whether
the checkbox is checked or not from the controller? Also, since the tables are
defined in the database, this will all be going into two other tables. I don't
think this is the right behavior though...

The easiest way is probably via a custom form:

Another option -- each table row or div containing a field input has an id
that starts with [tablename]_, so you could use a jQuery selector like:
jQuery('[id^=tutor_]').hide()
That will hide all table rows whose id's start with tutor_, which should
be all the field inputs in the form.

[web2py] Re: web3py?
I really believe web2py will indeed become the rails for python as someone mentioned. Actually, I believe it's much better, easier to use and comprehend, and more pleasant to develop in. That said, I agree web2py needs to reach a critical mass of users because as of now, it's too hard to get the support to even simple answers, which sometime require days to be answered on google groups. A much wider user base would rapidly solve this problem quite naturally. I think the solution to this would be word of mouth: more users need to use web2py and spread the word of how good it is by mere word of mouth. It's possible, I believe the project can really outshine all the other python web frameworks.

[web2py] Re: Email upon registration not working
Yes, basic emailing is working, and I do have that code in my db.py file.
So if I do mail.send('email', 'title', 'body') it works.
The reason I had so much trouble with this was because I set up my app
using the wizard. The wizard created another file called 0.py (great name)
that was overwriting my mail.settings variables (great design decision).
Anyways, after two days of banging my head against the desk I finally got
emailing to work but now I can't get automated emailing upon user
registration to work.
Any suggestions?

To send emails you need to connect an SMTP server. For example, to send

mail = auth.settings.mailer
mail.settings.server = 'smtp.gmail.com:587'
mail.settings.sender = 'y...@gmail.com javascript:'
mail.settings.login = 'y...@gmail.com:password'
Do you have similar code?

Ok I got basic emailing to work. Here's what the problem was:
When I made my project, I used the wizard. The wizard created a file called
0.py (GREAT NAME) that was overriding my mail.settings.* variables. So no
matter how I set them, they'd get overwritten with things like ' '
Anyways, the basic e-mailing seems to work now. What doesn't work is the
e-mail upon registration, which I set with
auth.settings.registration_requires_verification = True
auth.messages.verify_email = 'Click on the link http://' + \
request http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/request.env.http_host

+ \
'/%(key)s to verify your email'
Are these values also being overwritten somewhere that you guys know of??
Thanks
P.S.
What a poor design decision to have mail.settings in the db.py file, then
at the bottom have them reference another variable in a file called
0.pyseriously??

I wasn't able to get it working with what you said but this seems to have

essentially, the requires field seems to have done some magic that the

[web2py] Re: changing the look of a form
You're going to have to change the style via CSS. If it's an inbuilt form in web2py like the login one, good luck :P you will have to use the custom form widgets and do a bunch of somersaults. Try following this guide, it may help: http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/07#FORM On Wednesday, November 14, 2012 8:58:45 PM UTC, Hector Magnanao wrote: how do you change the look of a form (i.e. background color, fonts, etc...) ? --
[web2py] Re: custom built login form
Ah ok I just took a look at the HTML and saw that my code conflicts with
what web2py is generating.
Basically there's a form within a form being constructed, so it looks like
this:
form class=form-horizontalform action=
enctype=multipart/form-data method=post
To avoid this, how can I tell web2py that the login form's style has to be
form-horizontal?
That way it can generate the HTML automagically.

[web2py] How to get register_next to move on to the desired URL

[web2py] Encrypting password verify
I have a field in my register form for verifying the password, as such:
Field http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/Field('password',
'password', length=512, readable=False),
Field http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/Field('password_verify',
'password', length=512, readable=False, requires=CRYPT
http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/CRYPT(digest_alg='sha512'))
Even though I added requires CRYPT, this field gets stored as the user's actual
password
(without any encryption). I take it this is not a good thing.
How can I encrypt even the verify password field on my registration form?
Thanks

[web2py] Re: custom built login form
I'm having a similar problem. I am making a custom form with this code in
the view:
{{=form.custom.begin}}
div class=control-group {{if form.errors['email']:}}error{{pass}}
label class=control-label for=inputEmailEmail address/label
div class=controls
{{=form.custom.widget.email}}
/div
/div
div class=control-group {{if form.errors['password']:}}error{{pass}}
label class=control-label for=inputPasswordPassword/label
div class=controls
{{=form.custom.widget.password}}
/div
/div
div class=control-group
div class=controls
label class=checkbox
input id=auth_user_remember class=checkbox
type=checkbox value=on name=remember Remember me (for 30 days)
/labelbr
{{=form.custom.submit}}
/div
/div
{{=form.custom.end}}
But this does not log me in for some reason. If I use just {{=form}} here,
it does login as it's supposed to.
My controller looks like this:
def login():
if auth.is_logged_in():
redirect(URL('dashboard'))
response.subtitle = T(Login)
return dict(form=auth.login())
I can't figure out why it's not logging me in with the custom form..

[web2py] Time of registration
Guys I'm wondering when I get someone to register, I'd like to have a field
in my database for the datetime.
In my db.py file, I have a Field('registration_time', 'datetime')
However, how do I pass in that the time (now) is supposed to be taken when
the user submits the form?? I'm a bit confused about this.
Thanks!

[web2py] response.flash not displaying
I cannot get response.flash to display for the life of me...I'm using a
vanilla version of the latest twitter bootstrap and have the following in
my style.css (which I took verbatim from web2py's css file)
div.flash {
font-weight:bold;
display:none;
position:fixed;
padding:10px;
top:48px;
right:50px;
min-width:280px;
opacity:0.95;

border:1px solid;
border-top:0px;
border-left:0px;
border-right:0px;

}
However, when I put something like response.flash = Hello in my
controller, nothing shows up. What the heck I don't even know how to start
debugging this problemNothing is being printed when I view page source
either, so something on web2py's part seems to not be functioning
correctly. Anyone have some insight about this??

[web2py] Re: Retype password: None
Hmm I can't figure out how to get the entropy check on a custom form. I'm
using a vanilla Twitter Bootstrap without all the web2py stuff because it

Is there a way to get password entropy check on custom forms with plain
Twitter Bootstrap css files??

[web2py] web2py woes
I just started using web2py and am having lots of trouble with things that
I think should be quite simple. I will enumerate them here in the hopes
they can be answered:
1) I had made a design in Twitter bootstrap 2.2.1 which was working fine as
a plain .html file. I saw that web2py used an older version of bootstrap so
I replaced the defauly boostrap.min.css with the latest version. Upon
uploading my views, everything seemed to work fine. However, when I
switched from one page to the next I realized that the container size was
changing. I finally discovered that changing the {{if
left_sidebar_enabled:}} to {{if not left_sidebar_enabled:}} or {{if
right_sidebar_enabled:}} to {{if not right_sidebar_enabled:}} solved the
container problem: every page remained the same width. What gives? How can
I prevent having to check whether the sidebar is there in order to get my
templates to all format nicely?
2) With the vanilla Twitter bootstrap 2.2.1, my thumbnails class was
leaving a nice padding between thumbnails. Now, it's not. Is this a problem
with the web2.py css files??
3) How can I get rid of the annoying page.com/default/goal structure? I
just would like to have page.com/goal
4) The navbar by default has an Index link. How can I get rid of it? I
don't see any index in the layout.html file so I don't know where this is
coming from.
Thanks in advance!!!
