Re: [web2py] Re: I think I need to make a join on a many to many... getting complicated for me...
jason, you will need to join in the user table and adjust your grouping accordingly. somthing like: count = db.users_tags.id.count() query = db((db.users_tags.user != auth.user.id) #\/-- isn't that the join? (db.users_tags.tag.belongs(db(db.users_tags.user== auth.user.id)._select(db.users_tags.tag))) (db.auth_user.id==db.user_tags.user)) rows = query.select(db.users_tags.user, db.auth_user.first_name, db.auth_user.last_name count, groupby=db.users_tags.user|db.auth_user.first_name|db.auth_user.last_name, orderby=count) for row in rows: print row.as_dict()

[web2py] geoserver proxyHost with web2py
Hi *, I'm developping a sort of map/gis application using web2py and a local geoserver. For some security policy geoserver by default does not share data with applications that send their request from another URL even if form the same host but a different port. Do you think there's a way to use this solution[1] proposed by the openlayers FAQ to a web2py installation for develop porposes on port 8000 and that does not use apache? After all the proposed script is in python! Thank you very mutch Manuele [1] http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#ProxyHost

You are passing a uuid, not a uuid function therefore it is always the
same value:
try replace

with
default=uuid.uuid4
or
default=lambda:uuid.uuid4()
or
default=lambda:str(uuid.uuid4())
they should all work.

Let's say you have: def mp3(): rows = db(your_query).select(your_select) return dict(rows=rows) If you go to /app/controller/mp3.xml it will use the 'generic.xml' view to render the rows as XML. If you want to convert the rows to XML within your controller and then do something else with the XML, you can do: from gluon.serializers import xml xmlrows = xml(rows) The above is what the 'generic.xml' view file does.

Re: [web2py] Re: cache.ram didn't show data immediately
It should not be. After caching, it must not hit database, until cache expires. So, after the cache is set and you insert something, then it'll take time until cache expires, to have another db hit. Unless db is queried again, new data will not be there. It's as simple as that. As others said, you probably don't need caching, but if you do, set an expire time considering how fast the data in db get changed.

[web2py] Facebook redirection after authentication
I am having the hardest time determining what the correct way is to set the URL that a user will be redirected to after the authentication/ authorization redirect to Facebook. What I am currently seeing is that a user who has not yet authenticated with Facebook will be properly forwarded for authentication but they are returned to: /myapp/default/index Since nearly the entire app is doing partial page loads with AJAX, I need them to be returned to: /myapp/ If they have authenticated previously, and don't require re- authentication, that is where subsequent application loads end up and everything works fine. If they get returned to the former (/myapp/ default/index) then a later AJAX request, for index2 as an example, ends up at: /myapp/default/default/index2 This, as you can imagine, is not going to work. Might anyone be able to give me an idea of what I need to do to get this to work properly? Will I need to patch one of the underlying files in order for me to override the default? Thanks!

Re: [web2py] web2py in Web Project
Datatable plugin or powerTable does not paginate the data on server, it loads all the records in to memory and the pagination is done in client side DOM. I guess you dont need to commit() or close connection because web2py does that for you on each request. webfaction is a very nice hosting service, but it crashes too much using web2py when you run with less than 200MB, you can try to customize the apache configuration to run with low number of threads. You can put the data in to a cache or paginate in server side using limitby=(x,y) in your queries. Do you have a local test server (the same config as in webfaction) to run the same application and make a stress test? Can you share your code(where you are doing Bb IO) ?

yeah, I see what you mean... Should have waited a bit. So much for clever 4am analogies... ;) Wasn't really for animals ;) I think what you have works for this.

SO this was just to make it easy to do : get the the last values we have for items in this list. I can have a func that will do it, I just didn't want to re-invent if there was something like it already :). I will wrap what you posted in a function.

You probably need 'answers' to reference auth_user or come up with a scheme

Then, select() a question and build a form. Perhaps:

form = SQLFORM(db.answers)
form.vars.question_id = question.id
return dict(question=question, form=form)
To hide the form elements you don't want, you might need to either customize
the form or set readable/writable.

[web2py] Re: launching web2py from script?
From what I can tell, there is a port conflict between aptana (or one of its plugins) and web2py. Still drilling down to find the culprit. If I open aptana first, and let it load up properly, i can not launch web2py. but, I can launch web2py, then aptana without issue. Seems something in aptana (or a plugin I have installed) will not share. ALthough, even if i launch aptana first, then web2py, nothing tells me that there is a weak reference issue. so this is a little strange. GLobals and its use of dict that's where I am headed next.

[web2py] Web2py: the top notch productivity platform
!-- Note of appreciation to Massimo and team -- I have been using web2py for the past few years and I feel it is one the Python world's hidden gems. While most people argue about Django and the like, what matters most when it comes to application development is deployment speed, reliability and low cost of maintenance. If you are in the software development business, you want to put things in your customers hands early (agile development), provide full web functionality (logins, security, https) all of which come inbuilt and the ability to work with legacy systems (Oracle, MySQL) on multiple platforms (Linux, Windows). Web2py does all of this without making you sweat and worry about library incompatibilities and platform specific issues.The range of deployments is amazing - GAE to EC2. For this alone, the team deserves a huge round of applause! The recent tool CSVstudio is a complete life saver. I recently delivered a project where I had to convert Excel files running into a few hundred columns and thousands of rows into searchable databases. Imagine doing this by hand - forget it! I initially used CloverETL (a leading enterprise ETL solution), but still had to ensure column compatibilities and fix Excel issues which were time consuming. Well, half-way into the project, client changes Excel formats, adds new files to the mix - typical scenario right? Enter CSVstudio. It not only cleans your Excel files, but recognizes column data types and the best part - it generates the Web2py model file for you. I went from Excel file to searchable web database in less than 5 minutes. This is a killer tool for application developers! I'm sure there are a number of volunteers from around the world along with Massimo who contribute to the Web2py project and I would like to say - thank you, keep up the good work and make Web2py the #1 application development platform out there! For those of you who are contemplating using this platform or need assistance deploying this within your networks (academic or commercial), feel free to talk to the mailing list or ping me for corporate specific advise. I have deployed web2py in corporate settings, hospitals and research labs successfully and would be happy to help you. There's lots of good applications like Sahana people are building with Web2py and the recent news that our mailing list traffic has overtaken Django and Ruby is indication that people are moving in the right direction. Let the work talk, not the hype. And that's where web2py is the silent assassin. -Sebastian
