[web2py] Ajax from menu item?
Does anyone have any sample code showing how to call the Web2py 'ajax'
function from a menu? I currently have this as a link on a page, and I'd
like to move it to a menu item:
a href=# onclick=ajax(
'{{=URL(request.application, 'dopy', 'new')}}',[], 'DetailArea'
) /New/a
Thanks

You can use appadmin to register another person or you have to create
your own interface for example via
form=crud.create(db.auth_user)
You can also make your form more complex
form=SQLFORM.factory(db.auth_user,Field('group1'),Field('group2')):
if form.accepts(request.vars):
insert form.vars into db.auth_user
if form.vars.group1. auth.add_membership()

Elaborating on the original questions:
1) For example, I login as an administrator and I register a user name

in user gets switched from administrator to bob after being added to
the database. Can I stop this switch from occurring?
2) I want to extend the register form from looking in HTML like:
[username]
[firstname]

[verify password]
Submit
to:
[username]

on the initial call the formkey will be swallowed
if the form is submitted the formkey will be added to the form

they are pretty green but they know what an object is more or less,
they know what does it mean to return a value, they understand what
the database is. they are probably convinced they know how it works)
They see db.auth_user as a whole table of data(YES), not the
definition, they stick to this thinking almost to the end, they give
up after showing them how it is coded in DAL, how f.e the drop()
method works
I needed to explain this thing to many of them. Somehow, they see it
that way. And you probably know why..
because of this: db.person['id'] ;)
of course, IN THE BOOK:
It defines, stores and returns a Table object called person
containing a field (column) name. This object can also be accessed
via db.person, so you do not need to catch the return value.
define_table checks whether or not the corresponding table exists.
(they claim they understand those first 6 sections of the book but it
seems they missed some details)
should this sentence: It defines,... go UPPERCASE? Or rather go
uppercase when beginner button CLICKED in the book app?
the book is great BUT pretty condensed. hard to read for someone who
just learned a lot of things from the python section of the web2py
book.
This is the point of my question. Even if I am still wrong and the
trick is in the book, the question still stands.
Massimo, I don't expect nor want to waste your time to implement such
things especially since the book app is online and free AFAIK. I am
asking community, does marking/tagging things in the book/other
recipes makes sense for you? because tagging will be a lot of work.
but could this improve web2py documentation dramatically w/o creating
new content?
Maybe this could nicely complete the idea of making new tutorials on
different levels of knowledge.
quote from the previous thread:
or.. are we trying to fit to much into the book, and soon we will need
beginner's and advanced book. normal/extended/with python explanatory
etc.
this is a question for all of you:
How far should we go with documenting, the book/web2pyslices/etc W/O marking
sections/subsections/sentences *beginner/*advanced(maybe some other
markers) so we
could easily split/sort them later?

Re: [web2py] repeated call of form.accepts produces odd results
Of course, accepts() is not ment to be called multiple times. The
reason it swallows is because it uses sessions to prevent double
submission. So basically calling form.accepts twice is like double
submitting the form from your controller.
To avoid protection against double submission, just call
``form.accepts(request.vars)`` without the session object.

As relases move along, having a R- prefix will leave past releases marked conspicuously. If ONLY releases will be tagged, this might be superfluous - BUT is patches, or test posts are (at any point in the future) tagged, then a way to clearly, unambiguously be able to find Release tags will be important. There may be other ways to approach this, but this is common, simple, allows tagging a release as beta, release candidate, and (potentially) release, without the need to add any revisions, for example: B2-1.99.99, RC-1.99.99, and R-1.99.99 might all be different changesets - OR the same changeset that passed all these gates. The discussion of a tag format of the form: [Release state]-[Release number] is useful. It should not be mixed up with discussion of having ONE tag which always marks the latest release - these are separate concerns. I think we should use just the release number as the tag for release versions. If we are talking about a bugfix ou release candidate (that are in a lowest number compared to releases), so we can use number-bugfix or number-RC. The default approach to tag versions is to tag releases so, please, don't put this ugly R- before the version number - it is intuitive and more simple. But the exceptions (anything that isn't a release, like RC and bugfixes) should be explicitly tagged. We need to use more of the KISS philosophy. Hope that helps clarify.

Sorry for chime in. Do you guys have a convenient way to input a file
path via browser? I've tried these.
1) INPUT(_name='the_path') # User have to type it
2) INPUT(_name='a_file', _type='file')
This is assuming that the web server is running on local machine as a
desktop application. However, in old days the file object contains
path info, but that is no longer the case in recent browsers.
3) So I guess I have to somehow design a dedicated interface to
browse the directories on my server. Or maybe it already exist
somewhere?
Do you have better way?

Here is the code for my z_defuser.py: fname='ticket' lname='master' maile='tmas...@example.com' passwd='tmaster09!' # Check to see if the user exists first. # If the user does do nothing, else create the new user. rows = db(db.auth_user.email == maile).select() if rows: pass else: ticket_master = db.auth_user.insert(first_name=fname, last_name=lname, email=maile, password=passwd) P.S.

It would also be good to have tests - once problems are found - written and generalized, so that problems do not easily re-appear undetected later.

Re: [web2py] Re: rocket performance
This is the first I'd heard of x-sendfile so I looked it up. It seems to work to off-load work from the application server to the web-server for serving large files. In theory, there would be no real benefit from this in Rocket since Rocket and web2py run in the same process. Serving a file from disk is hardly a CPU-intensive process for a threaded system. The only benefit would be to allow the GC to collect some of the request environment stuff earlier. I can't see this having a measurable benefit. For Apache and LightTPd, it makes a more sense when the app-server runs in a different process. -tim On 4/22/2010 11:11 AM, Thadeus Burgess wrote: I know I have been talking about x-sendfile alot lately Is there any reason that rocket should support it? -- Thadeus On Tue, Apr 20, 2010 at 4:06 PM, mdipierromdipie...@cs.depaul.edu wrote: ok. will fix this soon.

[web2py] one solution to web2py+eclipse and undefined variable warnings
Hi, To get rid of the undefined variable warnings in eclipse you can define names as globals in the preferences. (Eg to remove the warnings for request, response, db, T, auth, etc...) Preferences - PyDev - Editor - Code Analysis Under the undefined tab, you find Consider the following names global: (comma separated) There you can add service,auth,T,response,session,request,db or whatever. Doing this seems easier then writing global request, ... at the top of all of your controller files. cheers / jonas rundberg -- Subscription settings: http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/subscribe?hl=en

[web2py] Re: ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10:
The problem happens in this requires
IS_NOT_IN_DB(db(db.companyapplication.application==request.vars.application),db.companyapplication.company,error_message='combination
of company en application already in database')]
because the field naming choice makes it impossible to tell apart in
request.vars which application is being referenced on each side of the
comparison, on the left side companyapplication.application refers to
an application.id while on the right side it refers to
application.application, a string.
to get around this redefine table companyapplication as follows
db.define_table('companyapplication',
Field('company_id',db.company,),
Field('application_id',db.application),
migrate=False)
and update the requires to reflect the new naming
db.companyapplication.company_id.requires=[IS_IN_DB(db,db.company.id,'%
(company)s'),
IS_NOT_IN_DB(db(db.companyapplication.application_id==request.vars.application_id),db.companyapplication.company_id,error_message='combination
of company and application already in database')]
db.companyapplication.application_id.requires=IS_IN_DB(db,db.application.id,'%
(application)s')
Following such a convention (adding '_id' to denote a reference) is
highly recommended.

[web2py] Use of Python assert statements
When using the packaged web2py distribution, is thare a way to use assert statements for development, then switch them off for production use? Not knowing the details of how .pyo files are used, I tested this by inserting an 'assert 1==2' and compiling that controller file with - O, but the optimised code was apparently not used - the assertion exception still appeared. It seems the only way to use assert statements would be for the full packaged framework to be compiled as optimised code, and the interpreter run with -O, is that correct? -- Subscription settings: http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/subscribe?hl=en
