[web2py] Re: How to search by date?
Thank you Brian! It works perfectly. But there is one trouble. If I use query with two dates: results=db(db.autos.dt=d1 db.autos.dt=d2).select() there is no result at all. But if I use only first date: results=db(db.autos.dt=d1).select() there is correct result. * On 27 апр, 01:15, Brian M bmere...@gmail.com wrote: Tell web2py that those fields are supposed to be dates and it'll take care of the date format for you.

[web2py] Re: Deploying DB
The duplicate .table files from what I can tell come from using different database connection strings. I haven't looked for the code but I do know if I change the database type, user name etc in the DAL() connection string parameter it appears to generate a hash code from the string and prefix that onto the table name and then .table as the extension. If you were to look in your development environment I am guessing one of the prefixes in your production set matches and if the production db connection string is different I am reasonably sure it will be using the other set of .table files. Except for SQLite I have found it only makes sense to preserve the database directory across installation instances if you use the exact same database connection string in both installations. Then I copy the database across using the database specific dump restore. If I get the tables already created error because I changed something I drop the database, clear out the databases directory, create an empty database, run the application up once to create an empty table and relations set and then load the data using the import from cvs file method. Now that I know what fake_migrate does I might try that next time by just deleting the .table files. My db is small containing configuration data for the application mostly so it isn't much of a hardship to toss these around. When the db is large it is a totally different matter that requires a lot more effort and time.

My guess is that you are passing a list instead of a string of text.
In order to put a list into a text field, web2py joins the elements

[web2py] Re: crud challenge
Thanks Denes, this was an interesting exercise and it is good that you
are giving us the benefit of this knowledge. I suppose like many, I
thought about the challenge, but couldn't figure it out.
On Apr 26, 7:49 pm, DenesL denes1...@yahoo.ca wrote:
Since I have not received any answers here is how to do it.
The problem is that to create the links as requested you need access
to the whole subheading record, and the internal processing of crud
and SQLTABLE only gives you access to the value of one of the fields
at a time.
So how can you get to all values in a record?.
Using virtual fields, by adding these to the MODEL e.g.:
class HeadSubs:
def linksub(self):
return A(self.heading.title,
_href=URL('list_subheadings',args=[self.heading.id]))
db.heading.virtualfields.append(HeadSubs())
so now table 'heading' has a 'linksub' virtual field.
Note how you can use any field from the same row to build the virtual
one.
Following one of Massimo's recent videos the CONTROLLER looks like
this:
def reload(target): # note1
def js(form):
response.js='web2py_component(%s,%s)' %(URL(target),target)
return js
def index():
return dict()
def list_headings():
return dict(
form=crud.select(
db.heading,
orderby=db.heading.sequence,
columns=['heading.linksub'] ) # note2
or 'no headings')
def add_heading():
return dict(
form=crud.create(
db.heading,
onaccept=reload('list_headings'))) # note3
note1: to understand how this works look up python nested functions,
but it is akin to a closure.
note2: with 'columns' we select only the virtual field which has the
link in the requested format.
note3: this will force a reload of 'list_headings' after a sucessfull
insertion.
To complete the use of components, the VIEW:
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
h2Headings/h2
{{=LOAD(request.app, 'list_headings.load', ajax=True,
target='list_headings')}} # note4
h3Add heading/h3
{{=LOAD(request.app, 'add_heading.load', ajax=True)}}
note4: the target is what ties the reload code near note3.
The use of virtual fields could be further expanded, for example
creating elements that have onclick using web2py_component to load
other parts.
Hope you find it useful.
[web2py] Re: Documentation web2py
It is tricky for book editors to write new sections for the book for various reasons: e.g. - Editors do not usually know the full background and intent of new features. - As new features are always introduced as unstable, it is too early to document them.

[web2py] Re: Documentation web2py
I certainly wouldn't wish to discourage anyone from editing etc by introducing unnecessary procedures. However, I think we need a little more clarity. Problem 1. If Massimo is only going to make a final decision about backwards-compatibility on an annual basis, this is a very long time. Could we not include this question of stability and backwards- compatibility within the version numbering? e.g. can we not have LTS versions periodically? Problem 2. The online book is currently not authoritative in any way. The only way in which we can currently see what is really stable and correct is by seeing what is in the printed version. Ideally the online book would be color-coded, or at least a diff available online so we can see what may have been added/amended. Problem 3. The online book may have been edited by someone with as little knowledge as I!! Of course I am cautious when editing, but shouldn't there be some guidelines for reviews by someone more senior? Typos and minor corrections = everyone. Major corrections, additional examples = review by active member of developer group. Problem 4: We never know what might have changed.

Re: [web2py] Re: Documentation web2py
That makes sense. _ *Gilson Filho* *Web Developer http://gilsondev.com* 2011/4/27 villas villa...@gmail.com I certainly wouldn't wish to discourage anyone from editing etc by introducing unnecessary procedures. However, I think we need a little more clarity. Problem 1. If Massimo is only going to make a final decision about backwards-compatibility on an annual basis, this is a very long time. Could we not include this question of stability and backwards- compatibility within the version numbering? e.g. can we not have LTS versions periodically? Problem 2. The online book is currently not authoritative in any way. The only way in which we can currently see what is really stable and correct is by seeing what is in the printed version. Ideally the online book would be color-coded, or at least a diff available online so we can see what may have been added/amended. Problem 3. The online book may have been edited by someone with as little knowledge as I!! Of course I am cautious when editing, but shouldn't there be some guidelines for reviews by someone more senior?

[web2py] Re: Documentation web2py
Just tossing my two cents in here, but documentation (especially that of experimental features) is really important and can make a huge difference. Django actually had http://www.djangobook.com/en/2.0/ which was pretty cool, but they haven't maintained it. It gives you two versions, a stable book, and an always changing book. Each section of the book can have comments added to it, which an editor later goes back to review and add it to the documentation if needed. Maybe web2py could benefit from something like this.
[web2py] Re: Tr.lời: Re: Tr.lời: Re: Site wide single sign on?
The design is of course your decision, but for example, you could have one DB just for auth across all your apps. Then you might have separate DBs for each app's data. I have never shared login sessions between apps. However, maybe Massimo's suggestion above is helpful. If you need such flexibility maybe you might also be interested in a remote authentication method, e.g. Janrain (now maybe SimpleAuth too).

[web2py] Login problems with _formkey changing
I have a user of my app that is unable to log in with his (Ubuntu)
Firefox browser. He can log in with Chrome, and others can log in with
various flavors of Firefox. He's cleared his caches, cleared his
cookies, and done all sorts of similar browser cleansing things.
I found that his session._formkey[login] does not match his submitted
_formkey. I've determined that form.accepts is returning false, and
doing so at the test of the two _formkey variables.
I put a few lines of syslog into db.py and gluon/tools.py and logged
this:
Apr 27 09:46:35 cloud1 apache2: db.py:328:session: Storage {'auth':
None}
Apr 27 09:46:35 cloud1 apache2: db.py:329:auth: None
Apr 27 09:46:35 cloud1 apache2: gluon/tools.py:1441:before form
accepted. form.vars: Storage {}
Apr 27 09:46:36 cloud1 apache2: db.py:328:session: Storage {'auth':

Apr 27 09:46:36 cloud1 apache2: gluon/tools.py:1441:before form
accepted. form.vars: Storage {}
Now, he types in a valid userid and password, and submits.
---Above shows the _formkey in the session 7fc0... Below, on the
submit, the session now has formkey ad22... Yet the request.vars
still has 7fc0...
Apr 27 09:48:52 cloud1 apache2: db.py:328:session: Storage
{'_formkey[login]': 'ad2250fa-b3f6-4c23-8672-6b89b38e079f', 'auth':

'7fc06654-b766-4427-becf-212a27094483', 'password': '*',
'_formname': 'login', '_next': '/InsuranceInventory/default/index'}
So on submit, something reset his session._formkey
-- having had form.accepts() returned false, tools now returns a new
form, having installed a new formkey in both the session and the form
(as confirmed by the user).
Apr 27 09:48:53 cloud1 apache2: db.py:328:session: Storage {'auth':

Apr 27 09:49:33 cloud1 apache2: gluon/tools.py:1441:before form

I can't find anyplace where the session is being reset within my
code.
Can anybody tell me how to enable this user/browser? Or where else to
look?

[web2py] Creating an iTunes Compatible Podcast with Web2py
I am attempting to create an itunes compatible podcast using the RSS
capabilities of Web2py.
Per the Book (http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/09#RSS) the
format is as follows:
def feed():
return dict(title=my feed,
link=http://feed.example.com;,
description=my first feed,
entries=[
dict(title=my feed,
link=http://feed.example.com;,
description=my first feed)
])
The issue is that iTunes compatible podcasts have XML files with
':' (colons) in the field name which is disallowed by python syntax
('itunes:name = foo' is disallowed).
Here's an example itunes podcast from the Apple site(http://
www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#example):
itunes:nameJohn Doe/itunes:name
Is there a way to use Web2py RSS capability to generate fields with a
colon in the name or do I need to write my own view and simply
populate the fields?

What version of web2py are you using? I think when the response body is less
than 512 characters, web2py appends an HTML comment full of x's in order to
trick IE. However, this is only necessary for HTML responses (and generates

(see

The web2py request work flow runs the model files first, then the controller, then renders the view. I had a similar problem, the only way I could figure out how to change the menu after the model files have run was to add a menu update function to the model and call it from the controller when necessary.
[web2py] Re: Creating an iTunes Compatible Podcast with Web2py
Upgraded to 1.95.1 which is current.
Still no joy.
It doesn't appear that curly brace notation will work for generating
RSS feeds or I am doing something wrong.
From the book here is the example:
def feed():
return dict(title=my feed,
link=http://feed.example.com;,
description=my first feed,
entries=[
dict(title=my feed,
link=http://feed.example.com;,
description=my first feed)
])
Here is my test of the same with curly brace notation:
def feed():
a = dict()
a = { title:my feed,
link:http://feed.example.com;,
description:my first feed,
entries:{'title':my feed,
link:http://feed.example.com;,
description:my first feed
}
}
return a
The html result of the curly brace test is a correctly parsed
dictionary in html format.
The rss result is:

Hello,
In the application were are developing a user with the admin role has
to register the 'other users' that will have access to it. We would
like to make a view that must have a form for registering users and a
list of the users that are currently registered (all in the same view)
For testing we did:
In the controlusers.py controller:
def index():
form = auth.register()
return dict(form=form)
In the view:
{{if request.args(0)=='register':}}
custom registration form
{{pass}}
But this not work. When we try http://127.0.0.1/init/controlusers/ the
browser redirects to http://127.0.0.1/init/default/user/login
How could we make this kind of registration process??

[web2py] Re: Creating an iTunes Compatible Podcast with Web2py
Ok, found the syntax issue with the curly brace conversion...

a = { title:my feed,
link:http://feed.example.com;,
description:my first feed,
entries:[{'title':my feed,

I was missing the fact that entries requires a list.
It seems that the RSS functionality requires certain fields (title,
description, link, entries (which must be a list))
As a result I am guessing this is incompatible with the iTunes podcast

What version of web2py are you using? I think when the response body is less
than 512 characters, web2py appends an HTML comment full of x's in order to
trick IE. However, this is only necessary for HTML responses (and generates
an error with RSS, as you have observed). This was fixed recently, though
(seehttp://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/detail?r=e46809139d9f9f8b91e6a...),
so maybe try the most recent version of web2py.

[web2py] Best practice to start background process
Hi, I would like to know what would be the best way to start background process in production environment. I have implemented background process by using the web2py book chapter as a template (http:// www.web2py.com/book/default/chapter/04#Background-Processes-and-Task-Queues). I start background process manually on my development machine (Winddows 7, web2py webserver) and it works great. Now it is time to publish my app on production server (debian linux, apache2, mod_wsgi). I was wondering what would be the best and the most simple way to start this background process together with apache/mod_wsgi? Ideal solution would be cross-platform compatible but this is not mandatory. As far as i know there are several different options but I do not know what is the best and what are advantages and disadvantages of different methods: 1) manually from shell: - laborious and should be done upon every server reboot 2) init script: - good option and can be integrated with apache2 init script 3) web2py-cron-@reboot: - is this even possible or recommended? However, this would be the only cross-platform alternative 3) system cron: - cron job could check if background process is still running and restart process if it has been crashed How have you guys done this? Any suggestions? Teemu

[web2py] Confusion using experts4solutions
We are working on a new web2py project. We are making progress and web2py has certainly improved our production but we could use some help. The experts4solutions site looks very promising but currently it doesn't provide details for handling various issues. We posted a couple of small jobs on elance, oDesk and vWorker, then sent the links each member of experts4solutions. Some of the issues the freelancing sites handle that we have a concern about include: job posting tools, contractor filtering tools, payment processing, commitment guarantees (for example, payment held in escrow), dispute settlements and arbitration, legal terms and software licences. Is our approach acceptable? What have others done in the past? Regards, Jim Karsten

[web2py] Re: Creating an iTunes Compatible Podcast with Web2py
Ok, last post on this subject.
After reviewing the source for PyRSS2Gen I'm going to conclude (unless
someone who actually knows can clue me in) that PyRSS2Gen is not setup
to handle custom namespaces (itunes:blah). I've tried with both the
xml and the rss views and end up with the same issues. By an large the
feed works until I try to update the rss_attrs and use the itunes
namespace which is required for a proper iTunes podcast.
I'm going to write a simple view that can handle what I need without
resorting to using this module.

[web2py] Re: Best practice to start background process
This is a copy paste of something I wrote a month ago or so:
I was able to get background processes to work pretty well. I have an import
script that takes a minute or two to run and is started by an ajax call from
a button in one of my views, and the progress is reported back to the page
as the script runs. The way I did this was to use multiprocessing. Here is
an example class:
from miltiprocessing import Process, Queue
class ImportScript(Process):
queue = Queue()
progress = (0, 0, 'Idle')
def __init__(self, environment, db):
Process.__init__(self)
self.db = db
def run(self):
self._do_import(arg1, arg2)
def _do_import(self, arg1, arg2):
# long running task here
self._update_progress((1,100, 'Importing'))
def _updatre_progress(self, progress):
ImportScript.queue.put(progress)
print '%s: %s of %s' % (progress[2], progress[0], progress[1])
@staticmethod
def get_progress():
queue = ImportScript.queue
progress = ImportScript.progress
while not queue.empty():
progress = queue.get(False)
ImportScript.progress = progress
return progress
I called this file scripts.py, and added to my modules folder. Then in
db.py, I initialize it by calling:
scripts_module = local_import('scripts', reload=False) # reload=False is
important
In my controller, when I want to start this process, I call:
import_script = scripts_module.ImportScript(globals(), db)
import_script.start()
The script starts and the controller continues execution while the script
runs in the background. Then if I want to check progress on the script, I
make an ajax call to another action in the controller that returns progress:
progress = scripts_module.ImportScript.get_progress()
return '%s: %s of %s' % (progress[2], progress[0], progress[1])
This would return something similar to:
Importing records: 5 of 100
[web2py] Programmatically uploading images
My goal is to create an Android app that will take a photo and upload
it to Web2Py photolog apps running on GAE and my local server.
I am scripting Android with Python and had expected to use something
like urllib2 to post the image and data to an upload_photo crud.create
form.
When trying to post directly to a Web2Py-created form, nothing gets
written -- apparently because I'm not sending the _formkey. When using
my own form, the best I've been able to accomplish is adding
everything but the data.
Is there a more sensible route to getting images into a database
programmatically? If it must be through a form, will I need to somehow
capture and return the _formkey along with the upload?
Any comments, leads, or questions will be appreciated.
Model:
db.define_table('photolog',
Field('photo','upload',label='Photo',
uploadfield='photo_data'),
Field('title',default=''),
Field('photo_data','blob'),
auth.signature)
db.photolog.title.requires = [IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,
db.photolog.title),]
This contoller and view work as expected:
def add_photo():
return dict(form=crud.create(db.photolog))
-
div id=photolog_form
{{=form}}
/div
From web2py shell, I can insert records to the database
programmatically with:
filename = 'pic.jpg'
stream=open(filename,'rb')
db.photolog.insert(title='Not again!', \
photo=db.photolog.photo.store(stream,filename), \
photo_data=stream.read())
db.commit()
A controller that doesn't work (even through the browser):
def add_photo():
form = SQLFORM(db.photolog)
if form.accepts(request.vars, session, dbio=False):
title = request.vars.title
photo = request.vars.photo.file
data = photo.read()
form.vars.id = db.photolog.insert(title=title,
photo=db.photolog.photo.store(photo,photo.name),
photo_data=data)
db.commit()
return dict(form=form)
Client-side Python script:
I've tried variations on the this, along with trying to use Doug
Hellmann's urllib2 multi-part form helper (http://www.doughellmann.com/
PyMOTW/urllib2/):
filename = 'pic.jpg'
stream=open(filename,'rb')
data = {'title': 'Super Photo',
'photo': (stream, filename),
'photo_data': stream.read()
}
urllib2.urlopen('http://example.com/init/photolog/add_photo',
data)

[web2py] Fake Tables
I was wondering if anyone has ever tried anything like this before: I have an application that will be running mostly from data via Python API calls. This means that I won't really need to use the database at all. The problem with this approach, is that some important web2py features are only available when using the DAL. I'll use CRUD and SQLFORM as an example, but also plugins like PowerTables all require the DAL and table definitions. I had thought of loading some of the API's information into a database, and working off of that, and periodically refreshing but I'd have to do that every 30 seconds or so and that's a lot of extra work that could potentially introduce bugs and make debugging harder. So my question is: Is it possible to define a set of table definitions (reference fields and all) and pull information from the API instead of from the database so that I could use things like CRUD and PowerTables?
[web2py] SQLFORM question

{{=form.custom.widget.f_name}}

So I have only one textfield that can be updated. The problem I´m facing
is that all rest columns are updated to a NULL value. I tried with

The decision is a process. The book is printed annulally thus making it officially. Problem 2. The online book is currently not authoritative in any way. The only way in which we can currently see what is really stable and correct is by seeing what is in the printed version. Ideally the online book would be color-coded, or at least a diff available online so we can see what may have been added/amended. I disagree. Problem 3. The online book may have been edited by someone with as little knowledge as I!! Of course I am cautious when editing, but shouldn't there be some guidelines for reviews by someone more senior? So far we did not have the problem. Edits have been good and helpful. Typos and minor corrections = everyone. Major corrections, additional examples = review by active member of developer group. Problem 4: We never know what might have changed. I believe it would be very helpful if there was a change diff or log available for edits so that we may see what has changed and then perhaps we can review each other's edits more easily. In any case, I am sure that many of us would like to know what has changed as any new examples and such can be very interesting. This is a good point. I could edit the app and publish diffs.

[web2py] Re: Code insert-er for Pydev Eclipse users
yes, ditto for pydev on mac, although... I don't always want to do that because, some scripts that use some web2py libraries don't get rolled out with Aptana or eclipse. So, your tool would be handy to have during development as well... Anyways, I'd like to try it. Thanks, Mart :) On Apr 27, 7:53 pm, drayco antrod...@gmail.com wrote: Thank's a lot.

Personally, I added the library project by project so the feature is working for me too. But this does not solve the problem of the missing imports for existing code if code analysis is activated (Window Pydev Editor Code Analysis Option tab Do Code Analysis checkbox). The script add the missing imports so you don't have to add them manually. I guess you work without the Pydev code analysis. It could also be a good reference for people beginning with web2py.

Re: [web2py] Re: SQLFORM question
I tried that soluttion but I think it didn´t work as expected, it still
uppdated all records.
I´m using the newest version web2py on linux.

There are several options but the simplest solution is:
form = SQLFORM(db.t_bills, bill['id'], fields=['f_name'])
this way you only affect the listed fields.

I have a table that I d like to update. Let s say the table has eight

in controller:

if form.accepts(request.vars, session, keepvalues=True):
redirect()
return dict(form=form)
in view:
I have created a custom view with
{{=form.custom.begin}}
{{=form.custom.widget.f_name}}
{{=form.custom.submit}}
{{=bill_items_form.custom.end}}
So I have only one textfield that can be updated. The problem I m facing
is that all rest columns are updated to a NULL value. I tried with
SQLFORM(db.fsdf, fields but no luck.

[web2py] Re: crud challenge
Oh, I figured it out alright! just happened to be wrong, didn't really work, oh and forgot to use CRUD! ;) LOL (then of course, my free time had expired)... so, no, I didn't figure it out either :) but, if i can, i'd like to make a suggestion... These are really great exercises, and as Villas points out, they come with access to the guy with the knowledge to try to understand them, I mean really, does it get any better? Would be nice if there was some sort of central place to keep them and make them available, because once posted (then later the solution), they are are worth a lot (like many tips and trick found in the postings, but through time, they can get lost and buried in numbers, unfortunately) We can always, copy them, but then the google group is growing and would be missed by new members. this may be silly (chances are it probably is ;) ) but, my first thought would be to have some sort of online repository, maybe a downloadable/updatable app of sorts... best place would obviously be @ web2py.com... maybe something like slices, but focused on learning, exercises and a potential ask the expert button! ;) - actually, even a downloadable text file would be better than not having access at all Just my 2 cents... there is so much good stuff happening here, so many areas to touch on, and so much to learn... and for many (like me) time is way too limited... would be nice to be able to easily go back when time allows... because, for me at least, web2py is alot about learning :) Thanks Denes!

[web2py] Re: the '|' charachter i text fields
hum, i think you're right...
here is how I update:
result=compExec.procCmd(cmdline,logfile=None,updateString=None)
self.db(self.db.scriptCompiler.id==self.id).update(log=result)
so, with subprocess, proc.communicate() returns a list ['','']. index
0 is stdout and index 1 is stderr. So i guess the stderr is outputting
a list...
So, this means, that if I happen to try to update a text field (no
'string:list') dal will automatically accept a list, without having to
set the type? So, if we really want to store text, i could simply
quote it?
Thanks,
Mart :)

My guess is that you are passing a list instead of a string of text.
In order to put a list into a text field, web2py joins the elements
using a '|'.
In your code I do not see where you do insert.

Hi,
so, this part is done using DAL (scripted).
I use subprocess like below to run external scripts and stuff. when
failures, I want to dump the log in the DB.
proc = subprocess.Popen(strCmd,shell=True,
stdin=subprocess.PIPE,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
if updStr is None:
out = proc.communicate()
... bla bla
if len(out[1])0:
so the resulting 'out[1] gets stored in the DB.
here's an example of one of the tables:
db.define_table('scriptCompiler',
Field('uuid',length=64,default=uuid.uuid4()),
Field('cmdName'),
Field('scriptCompiler_directory'),
Field('log','text'))
db.commit()
I use 'text' to provide for larger logs.
thanks for your help! :)

is it expected for a text field to split the text on line breaks and

behavior?
