[web2py] New web2py app: Airea.me
Hi everyone, i'm very proud to announce Airea.me (in english it's something like aerate me). This application was made into the challenge abredatos. A competition held in Spain, based on the creation of an application within 48 hours using open data. Our team, decided to use web2py, jQuery, jQueryMobile and some of the Google APIs (maps and charts). We use the data available in the Basque Government in Spain about the air quality.And the data are treated as measured by the World Health Organization All the code is available here: https://github.com/plexxoo/airea.me And this is the development team: http://live.abredatos.es/teams/41 The application is forced to spanish, because it was imposible to us, to make it multilingual (especially the big texts) in only 48 hours. Although some text strings are in English using the translation system web2py. We know that there are several bugs, but we can not touch the code yet to decide a winner of the challenge. You can access the application here: http://airea.me from your computer or from a mobile device ;) Best Regards. Daniel.
[web2py] csv file name and other...
Hi, first question: following what reported in the doc http://www.web2py.com/book/default/chapter/09?search=export_to_csv I have implemented my export view but I realized that apparently I have no file name control and it depends on the browser I use even if I called my view export.csv. With Google Chrome I get download and with iceweesel an arbitrary random characters sequence such as n5oP+nWj.csv.part. How can I fix the file name? second question: what if I want firstly view the data extracted in a table (using SQLTABLE or powerTable plugin) and than download them without performing the query again? I thought to save the query result in session but when I use it to write my csv it says: AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'export_to_csv_file' Thank you Cheers Manuele

[web2py] How do I check if a user account is blocked/disabled?
I know I can use this code: users = db(db.auth_user.id==userId).select(db.auth_user.ALL) if users: return users[0]['registration_key'] not in ['disabled', 'blocked'] return False to check if an account is disabled. Is there a function/method I can call to check this instead? It feels odd to be writing code so intimate with under the hood details. Similarly, do I write directly to the db to update 'registration_key' to disabled or is there a method for that too?
[web2py] Re: How do I check if a user account is blocked/disabled?
That is how I do it. As far as I know, setting registration_key to 'disabled' is the only way for web2py to deny a log in for someone using Auth. When I need to set this or check it, I just wrap the code into a generic is_disabled() method to do the checking in case a better way presents it self in the future, I only need to change that method. You could do something like this at the end of your model: db.auth_user.is_enabled = lambda r: r.registration_key != 'disabled' Then whenever you need to check if a user account is enabled: rows = db().select(db.auth_user.ALL) for row in rows: if db.auth_user.is_enabled(row): # account is enabled else: # account is disabled By the way, I noticed that you used 'users[0]' in your code. I don't know if you are aware of this, but web2py has a cleaner method of selecting a single row: user = db(db.auth_user.id==userId).select().first() Using first() is the same thing as users[0], it's just a lot cleaner and allows you to easily check for None in case there were no records found.

[web2py] Versioning bug with wsgi
Hi all, a little annoying bug I encountered a minute ago: I tried the commit in mercurial versioning for an application running apache+wgsi_mod, and I got a ticket and this error embedded: IOError: sys.stdout access restricted by mod_wsgi: sys.stdout access restricted by mod_wsgi A quick check in the documentation explains: IOError: sys.stdout access restricted by mod_wsgi This is because portable WSGI applications should not write to sys.stdout or use the 'print' statement without specifying an alternate file object besides sys.stdout as the target. This restriction can be disabled for the whole server using the WSGIRestrictStdout directive, or by mapping sys.stdout to sys.stderr at global scope within in the WSGI application script file. Should not this issue be handled ?

Re: [web2py] Re: experimental... .pdf
Regarding PyFPDF:
Headers should be rendered.
Tables need at least a first TH, prior any TD, who indicates column
width (and it is wise to use THEAD and TBODY when you have multiple
pages), see:
http://code.google.com/p/pyfpdf/wiki/WriteHTML
table border=0 align=center width=50%
theadtrth width=30%Header 1/thth width=70%header
2/th/tr/thead
tbody
trtdcell 1/tdtdcell 2/td/tr
trtdcell 2/tdtdcell 3/td/tr
/tbody
/table
I'm planning to fix this issues, to cover more basic html conversions.
You can see what can do pyfpdf in this file:
http://pyfpdf.googlecode.com/files/html.pdf
BTW, did you see the new visual designer of pdf templates?
http://code.google.com/p/pyfpdf/wiki/Templates?ts=1306512231updated=Templates#Designer
It is a wx application, and I'm planning to connect it using DAL to
ease template/report generation (I think this is much easier and
manageable way than converting html).

At MyFPDF class you can add headers and footers.
The sanitize part is to strip some HTML tags that cannot be rendered

As some DIVs contents and similar may still pass (like menus), a
better alternative may be render only certains portions of the page in

pdf.write_html(str(XML(CENTER(section), sanitize=False)))

Like an RSVP list so to say. :) There is a lot of information actually, that I think I can gather from this.

Re: [web2py] Re: Background process not working...
I like to try to get my crons and background processes working in a controller first since it's easier to debug. Also, you might try writing the response to mail.send to the DB to see if there are any errors. I'm not sure that == False is the best way to query since False has special properties. You might consider something like ( db.invitations.status=='pending')
[web2py] Re: Create an email queing feature...
I'd also suggest SendGrid (200/day free, 10 cents for 1,000). It looks like you are now trying it as a background process. I've had better luck with cron. And since you only want to send every hour or so, you could set the cron to run hourly.

For doing updates, this is all you need:

def prod():
env.hosts = ['1.1.1.1']
env.user = 'user'
env.password = 'password'
def update():
run('cd /var/web2py/applications/init; hg pull')

[web2py] store user and time stamp
what's the way to store in db the user that perform the insert in db and

but with no success:
# db model
db.define_table('main_post',
Field('title', required=True, notnull=True, label=T('Title')),
Field('description', 'text', label=T('description')),
Field('timeref', 'datetime',
compute=lambda r: request.now,
requires = IS_DATETIME(format=T('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'),
error_message=T('must be -MM-DD HH:MM:SS!'))
)
Field('owner', db.auth_user, required=True, notnull=True,
compute=lambda r: auth.user.id,
requires=IS_IN_DB(db, 'auth_user.id', '%(first_name)s')

[web2py] Re: store user and time stamp
Try taking them out of the table definition. When you are referencing fields
in the same table, they sometimes need to go outside the table definition.
db.main_post.owner.compute = lambda r: auth.user.id
db.main_post.owner.requires = IS_IN_DB(db, 'auth_user.id')
Or do this;
Field('created_by', db.auth_user, default=auth.user_id)
[web2py] Re: store user and time stamp
You can just do:
db.define_table('main_post',
Field('title', required=True, notnull=True, label=T('Title')),
Field('description', 'text', label=T('description')),
auth.signature)
and you get
db.main_post.created_by
db.main_post.created_on

[web2py] table.requires question
Hello, i want to know i this behaviour is correct: Sometimes if I
define the .requires outside the table definition like:
db.define_table('mytable', ...)
db.mytable.myfield.requires = IS_IN_DB(..)
It just doesn't show the dropdown list in appadmin for reference
fields, but if I put the .requires inside the table definition then it
does show the dropdown list. I have the latest stable version of
web2py. Is this normal behaviour? In that case, which validators can i
use inside table definition and which ones not.
Thanks in advance

[web2py] Re: Missing paramenter?
It's not uncommon to include a comma after the last item.
Re: [web2py] table.requires question
db.table.field.requires = IS_IN_DB(...) # should build the dropdown widget
in form
db.table.field.requires = [ IS_IN_DB(...) ] # should not build the dropdown

[web2py] validate_and_update ?
Hi, I am building a test to create an ORM kind functionality using just modules (to avoid models) I am doing something like this: https://gist.github.com/996421 (that is working well) That uses 'validade_and_insert' which validate the FORM level validators and return a Row object with r.id and r.errors, now I want to create update methods, is there a 'validade_and_update' ? or another hack for doing that ?

[web2py] How to display a multi-line string variable properly?
I have a string variable, message_body, which is multiline (has
newlines or \n characters).
How do I get it to display properly in an HTML view?
simply using {{=message_body}} displays the text all on the same
line, ignoring the carriage returns.
{{=TEXTAREA(message_body)}} displays properly, but is ugly (unless I
can control the number of lines to fit tightly, and make the are non-
editable).
Thanks in advance!
Luis.
[web2py] Re: How to display a multi-line string variable properly?
I think you have to search/replace:
{{=XML(str(message_body).replace('\n', 'br'), sanitize=True)}}
I'm not sure if str() is always necessary or if sanitize needs to be True.
