[web2py] Re: Lacking nginx deployment guide
David, I'd like to try nginx with fastcgi.
Can you give me some helpful links to deploy it?
On 27 мар, 08:32, David J. da...@styleflare.com wrote:
I don't know about running web2py using uwsgi;
However;
When I run web2py with nginx I use the fastcgi module;
I configure nginx like described in the stackoverflow article;
except I use fastcgi;
In nginx config I have
location / {
include fascgi_params;
fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/fcgi.sock
}
then go to web2py root and run the python fastcgihandler.py script;
The caveat is that you have to change the permissions on the
/tmp/fcgi.sock file because when web2py runs it; its run under the user
that started the process;
so you do
chown nginx:nginx /tmp/fcgi.sock
and then your done;
You wont get and 502 errors or anything; its really quite simple;
I am not sure if the uwsgi implementation is better as I am trying that
tonight; but fastcgi has be running very stable for the past few months.
I apologize for the lack of detailed instructions (I am not in front of
the configs) but if you have any questions I can look into it further
and try to help.
Thanks.

OK, here's another try. This is just a shell script which I have verified
works on a clean Ubuntu 10.04 install. This script needs no additional
editing. To get it to work with the script provided by Linode, everything is
owned be the user uwsgi. Besides the script, the only other place where
the user is specified is in the uwsgi init.d script. Still working on SSL
but that shouldn't be too hard. Sorry if I have wasted anyone's time. I have
certainly wasted a lot of my own!

[web2py] add single pseudo-field to SQLFORM
I have an insert SQLFORM of 8 fields, to which I'd like to add a
single I agree to terms checkbox at the bottom. There are probably
tons of ways to do this, but I'm hoping someone has a really simple
method that doesn't require resorting to a manual FORM? Can I simply
tack on another INPUT to the SQLFORM? (Bonus points for placing it
after my last field but before the submit button). Here's the current
code.
form = SQLFORM(db.job_post, submit_button='Post Job',
formstyle='table2cols',
fields=['poster_name', 'poster_email', 'poster_phone',
'zipcode', 'location_description', 'job_type', 'job_title',
'job_description'],
_id='postjob'
)
if form.accepts(request.vars, session):
redirect(URL('post_email', vars={'id': form.vars.id,
'poster_name': form.vars.poster_name, 'poster_email':
form.vars.poster_email}))
What's solution allows me to make the minimal change? The simplest
solution that occurs to me is to use a SQLFORM.factory:
form = SQLFORM(db.job_post.poster_name, db.job_post.poster_email,
db.job_post.poster_phone, db.job_post.zipcode,
db.job_post.location_description, db.job_post.job_type,
db.job_post.job_title, db.job_post.job_description, FIELD('terms',
'boolean', IS_EQUAL_TO(True)) submit_button='Post Job',
formstyle='table2cols',
_id='postjob'
)
if form.accepts(request.vars, session):
form.vars.id =
db.job_post.insert(**db.job_post._filter_fields(request.vars))
redirect(URL('post_email', vars={'id': form.vars.id,
'poster_name': form.vars.poster_name, 'poster_email':
form.vars.poster_email}))
I guess this isn't too onerous, but I don't really like having to
manually do the insert, so I'm wondering about alternatives. BTW, why
does _filter_fields begin with _ if it's used publicly? Shouldn't it
just be filter_fields?

[web2py] Re: add single pseudo-field to SQLFORM
Hi Brian
One rather low-level way to add a field to a SQLFORM would be
something like this:
myinput = INPUT(_type='checkbox',_name='test')
f = SQLFORM(db.job_post)
f[0].insert(len(f[0])-1,myinput)
See also this post from Bruno:
http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/msg/41fbeda903c71f3f
There are probably better methods to deal with this. When we have
established the best way, we should put this in the book.

Found my own answer: I can create an onvalidation function for the

Right
The problem this then introduces is how to set the
enclosing variable from the function without use of nonlocal.
you could add it to the form
Guess I
can just create a dict for the vars ahead of time and set that from
the function. Like so:
vars = {}
def get_uuid(form):
from uuid import uuid4
uuid = uuid4()
db.job_post.uuid.default = lambda: uuid
vars['uuid'] = uuid
def get_uuid(form):
from uuid import uuid4
form.vars.uuid = uuid4()
Setting a field's default value is useful before creating a form,
at this point you are between acceptance and db i/o.
BTW, you don't need lambda to set a default.
if form.accepts(request.vars, session, onvalidation=get_uuid):
vars['poster_name'] = form.vars.poster_name
vars['poster_email'] = form.vars.poster_email
redirect(URL('post_email', vars=vars))
if form.accepts(request.vars, session, onvalidation=get_uuid):
redirect(URL('post_email',
vars={'poster_name' : form.vars.poster_name,
'poster_email' : form.vars.poster_email})
[web2py] Re: add single pseudo-field to SQLFORM
Just add
form[0].insert(-2,TR(LABEL('I agree to

after the form has been defined.
On submission form.vars.agree will have the status of the checkbox,
which you probably would check using onvalidation.

Hi Brian
One rather low-level way to add a field to a SQLFORM would be
something like this:
myinput = INPUT(_type='checkbox',_name='test')
f = SQLFORM(db.job_post)
f[0].insert(len(f[0])-1,myinput)

There are probably better methods to deal with this. When we have

It looks to me like the instructions will work OK for OS X, with some minor alterations. /home/joesmith becomes /Users/joesmith. I ended up doing a parallel installation of Python 2.5 and connecting the GAE apps to that; I'm not sure if that's necessary, but it was an easy way to shut up one of GAE's complaints. However, OS X (and Windows) users are probably going to use the very handy GAE GUI application for testing and deployment. Finally, it might be worth noting that there might be some other changes required to app.yaml. The example is set up to deploy the web2py welcome app, and it tries to keep the upload fairly lightweight, skipping some of the less-often-used contrib files and the like. You might also mention the use of GAE's app versioning, which can be handy for uploading newer versions for test purposes without making them the default.

[web2py] Re: web2py cherokee vanilla
Hmmm...I don't use Cherokee anymore but will try to have a look. Is that a Web2py-issued ticket? Setting up SSL on Cherokee took me a few tries. Also, do you see parameters_443.py in your web2py directory? If you see parameters_80.py you can duplicate it and rename it. 443 is the SSL port which is required for admin when you're not on localhost. Another trick on Cherokee is to run admin like this: $ cherokee-admin -b This avoids needing to set up the SSH tunnel so you can more easily access your Cherokee admin. The -b means you are binding to all ports. It's discouraged because it's a *very* small security risk for the shot period of time that admin is active.

I think the log in page is supposed to be overridden by setting auth.settings.login_url, but that doesn't seem to work for me.

[web2py] Funny behavior with referenced Field display if writable=False
Hi! I use Version 1.94.6 (2011-03-27 18:20:38). I have in db: - db.define_table( 'mail_domain', Field( 'domainname', 'string', label = 'Domain név', requires = IS_NOT_EMPTY() ), signature, migrate = settings.migrate, ) db.define_table( 'mail_domain_alias', Field( 'mail_domain_id', db.mail_domain, label = 'Domain név', requires = IS_IN_DB( db, db.mail_domain.id, '% (domainname)s' ), *writable = False,* ), Field( 'alias', 'string', label = 'Aliasz', requires = IS_NOT_EMPTY() ), signature, migrate = settings.migrate, ) -- controller: def domain(): form = crud.update( db.mail_domain, request.args( 0 ) ) return dict( form = form ) def domainalias(): db.mail_domain_alias.mail_domain_id.default = session.domainname_id form = crud.update( db.mail_domain_alias, request.args( 0 ) ) return dict( form = form ) def setdomain(): session.domainname_id = request.args( 0 ) session.domainname = db( db.mail_domain.id == session.domainname_id ).select( db.mail_domain.domainname ).first().domainname redirect( URL( 'default', 'index' ) ) - If the session.domainname_id is set to a valid mail_domain record ID, than the crud in domainalias shows the reference field as number and not as domainname string. But if I remove the writable=False in mail_domain_alias table's mail_domain_id field than I have a dropdown menu with the right record selected as domainname and not as ID number. I think the right behavior would be if I set the writable = True that I would see the right record not as ID but as %(domainname)s

It used to be that the handling of web2py's additions to sys.path were somewhat erratic, and dependent on which handler was in use. The changes were to make it consistent across handlers. In particular (at least in the trunk), both the web2py root and site-packages should be at the beginning of sys.path by the time you do your import. Could you please log sys.path at the time you do your import (or save a copy and display it later)? Thanks. 1. I'm using Web2py 1.89.1. Have I been caught out by recent changes? In any case, I'll update to the latest (so much recent activity!) 2. dev_appserver reports that there is an invalid character in 'site- packages'. I took that to be the hyphen. 3.

[web2py] Re: add single pseudo-field to SQLFORM
One small problem with this: my checkbox is now validated with
onvalidate which only runs when everything else validates. I want the
'must agree to terms' error to popup any time the form is submitted
without the checkbox checked, not just when it's the only think that
doesn't validate. If I could determine whether this is a postback the
way accepts does, I could just invoke my validation code manually.
Poking into the FORM.accepts code, though, I noticed onvalidate may be
a dict of {'onsuccess': func, 'onfailure': func}, so now I just have:
onvalidation={'onsuccess': validateTerms, 'onfailure': validateTerms}
...and that seems to do the trick.
BTW, I got confused by INPUT's value arg. I kept treating it like
_value until I realized that value is only meant to be set to True to
turn the checkbox on by default. Maybe deprecate 'value' in favor of
'prechecked' for this purpose to avoid the confusion.

[web2py] Re: add single pseudo-field to SQLFORM
Actually the insert index depends on the formstyle.
It should be -2 for formstyle='table2cols' as above.
That has to be changed to -1 for formstyle='table3cols'.
I think this is explained somewhere else in the manual but
form[0] is the TABLE and form[0][0] would be the first row (TR), etc.
When 'table2cols' is used then there are two TRs per field,
hence the -2 index to get over the submit which is last.
While using the default 'table3cols' there is one TR per field,
so -1 does the job.
A different approach has to be used for other styles like 'divs' or
'ul'.
All this just to say that it is not easy to generalize,
you always have to know how things are built.
Playing with the objects in the shell, e.g. using dir on them,
and looking at the source code will help a lot.

[web2py] args(0) is always None??
I have this function that displays several fields from two databases.
but I couldn't get it to do the following:
1) the previous question button actually causes an error. how come
my session.item_id is always zero when I thought I was passing an
incrementing value session.item_id+1 .
2) when i select a value from the dropdown list get an error saying
that I chose the wrong value
3) i am thinking of collecting the answers in an array so i can check
the answers before storing them as a records in a database. how do i
do that?
i look forward to your suggestions to make this move forward.

I kept treating it like _value until I realized that value is only meant to be set to True to turn the checkbox on by default. Maybe deprecate 'value' in favor of 'prechecked' for this purpose to avoid the confusion. Note that the value parameter is used by all types of INPUT fields, not just checkboxes, it would not make much sense to have an INPUT of type text 'prechecked' for example.
[web2py] Re: add single pseudo-field to SQLFORM
You can also use the .element and .elements methods of helper objects to
find particular form elements without needing to know exactly where they
are, as explained in
http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/05#Server-side-DOM-and-Parsing and
http://www.web2pyslices.com/main/slices/take_slice/43.

I think this is explained somewhere else in the manual but
form[0] is the TABLE and form[0][0] would be the first row (TR), etc.
When 'table2cols' is used then there are two TRs per field,
hence the -2 index to get over the submit which is last.
While using the default 'table3cols' there is one TR per field,
so -1 does the job.
A different approach has to be used for other styles like 'divs' or
'ul'.
All this just to say that it is not easy to generalize,
you always have to know how things are built.
Playing with the objects in the shell, e.g. using dir on them,
and looking at the source code will help a lot.

Massimo, I'll be emailing you a revised script based off of Praneeth's standalone_exe.py shortly. I decided to make it a bit more interactive Features: 1) Creates web2py.exe with py2exe 2) Offers to remove the Windows DLLs that py2exe includes but are likely to have licensing issues. 3) Offers to let user decide if they want to include their applications (if not still includes admin app) 4) Offers to let user decide if they want to include their site-packages scripts sub-folders (in case they've stuck needed modules there) 5) Offers to create a zip file of the build 6) If the zip file was make offers to clean up after itself (remove build, deposit dist folders) I've tested this on my Win7 box with Python 2.6 and it would appear to work as desired though I'll have to try running the resulting exe on some computers that have never seen python sometime next week. As a side not, while doing a diff I noticed that the example app included in the official web2py_win.zip includes a bunch of extra files in applications/example/static that are not in the source distribution. They're almost all epydoc sphinx files. Is there a reason for this or has something gotten out of sync?

Also, there's this slice: http://www.web2pyslices.com/main/slices/take_slice/124. Hopefully that will get you started. If the tenthrow guys are seeing this, I would not mind hint or tips from them. Also I am having issues with links (i.e.built with A, URL helpers and a) in my project. Although I included the blueprint css framework into my project I dont seem to be sure if its the one causing this behaviour: Whenever I create links, its shows the normal link and the the link in parenthesis. like this: http://blahblah.com(/appname/controllername/functionname). I have tried to debug this, but cant seem to get to the root of this. I need hint, tips again Can you show the code from your controller and/or view where you are building and inserting the links?

[web2py] My little Python projects
Hello, I updated my blog to talk about some Python projects I started. So take a look and don't be afraid to comment. If you think these projects can be integrated in another bigger project, suggestions are welcome. Note that Python script project to create Eclipse project from web2py applications has now moved. The web2py recipe to integrate web2py, Eclipse and Google Code is also on my blog. See my blogs for all details. http://pierrethibault.posterous.com/my-little-python-projects -- A+ - Pierre My blog (http://pierrethibault.posterous.com) YouTube page (http://www.youtube.com/user/tubetib) Twitter (http://twitter.com/pierreth2) Google profile (http://www.google.com/profiles/pierre.thibault1)
[web2py] Re: Help needed on 3rd party authentication and links
tenthrow.com appears to be down. It looks like you were not interested in Janrain. There are some other approaches: http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/08#Integration-with-OpenID,-Facebook,-etc. Although it was not clear to me from any docs or gluon code how you could, for example, code your own Facebook Connect login. I'd like to find this out as well as I plan to code some alternative login methods. For the URL issue, please provide some code.
[web2py] Re: Pls Help. I can not change the background color of the flash message
Isn't it this CSS in static/css/base.css? Also, If you have any interest in
CSS, Chrome/Safari have an Inspect Element command and Firefox has the
terrific Firebug add on. These are all must-have tools for working with web
page styles.
/*** web2py specific ***/
div.flash {
font-weight: bold;
display: none;
position: fixed;
padding: 10px;
top: 40px;
right: 10px;
min-width: 280px;

[web2py] Re: args(0) is always None??
Yeah, it looks like the code didn't come through very well. Pastebin would be good or go to groups.google.com where you can paste it and format it as Courier New font. I'd try to stay away from using 0 in your business logic. It might not always do what you expect since it can have different meanings in different contexts. The one place where you *do* use it is when checking the length of an object (ie if len(request.args(0))0:). For example, to retrieve all rows in a table, you can do something like this: rows = db().select(db. questionaire.ALL, orderby='random') * * Another tactic I would recommend is to get one component working well before integrating it with something else. You've got some complicated things going on such as appending to forms, checking IS_IN_SET against a query, and some complex query mashing in general. For checking the form before it gets processed, onvalidation might work: http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/07#onvalidation
