fluxflex has gone away. We had an app hosted there. June 30th 2012 was their last day of operation.

That would be fine, except that when I clone my git directory at fluxflex all that is downloaded is: icon.png README.md tmp_db_pw and an empty public_html folder Unfortunately I've also found that the support at fluxflex leaves something to be desired--usually several days for a response.

Should it not, as a matter of principle, try to maintain mutual accuracy of data? Or at least give the option do so. So, if the same data is updated where-ever, the system should aim for a cascade update, or the next best thing to that. -- Luc.

[web2py] Stream a couchdb attachment with web2py

Hi, If you run a web2py powered app on GAE in production, could you share your experiences? Is it very expensive for your needs? Are you OK with the pricing? How many instances do you run simultaneously on average? What kind of traffic do you get? How many requests per second do your apps serve? Do you use Datastore or Cloud SQL? Why?

Re: [web2py] Redirect to requested function
Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for your reply.
If you can identify your front-end functions, why not just rewrite
request.{controller,function} here?
if request.args(0) != session.id:
request.controller = 'addressbook'
request.function = 'router'
Because the router determines, what function to redirect to based on a
nodes account or the function which did the redirect.
I'm not following your requirement here. args(0)!=session.id is your
condition for redirecting to the router, right?
Yes, in that case the requesting node is a different one then the node
which data are stored in session, so these have to be reset.
Kind regards,
Annet

[web2py] Re: web2py not reading Amazon SNS Subscription Confirmation requests?
Thanks Massimo! It worked. request.body.read() had the JSON.
On Thursday, August 9, 2012 9:42:05 AM UTC+8, Massimo Di Pierro wrote:
There is nothing in request.args because I assume the URL is called
without args.
There is nothing in request.vars because the request contains no HTTP
variables. It is an HTTP post with a json data in the request body. HTTP
does not know anything about json. Web2py has no clue or way to guess the
request body contains json. It may as well be gibberish. Whoever created
the protocol should have used a mime multipart content (which is how forms
are submitted).
Anyway, you can still email yourself:
request.env # the headers
and
request.body.read() # the content of the body
and you will get what you want.

Hi all,

(through
probably not necessary to understand this problem.)
My controller action (default/amazon_sns_endpoint) basically just emails
request.vars and request.args to myself. It receives a POST request from
the subscription service. However, for some reason, it doesn't seem to be
able to process the POST request, i.e. request.vars and request.args are
always {} and []. (I do, however, get the email.)
Maybe web2py messes up when it handles some of the headers? An example

[web2py] Table Inheritance (Was Re: KeyError : 'name' when inserting/updating via sqlform.grid)
I figured out that problem is due to the way I have defined Table
Inheritance for mother/father/child.
If I define fields name and description *directly* in the
mother/father/child tables, inserts/updates work OK.
Now the question is :
What is wrong with the way I've defined the tables ? Here is the code for
your reference :
name = db.Table(db, 'name',
Field('name', 'string', length=128, notnull=True, unique=True))
name_desc = db.Table(db, 'base',
name,
Field('description', 'text', default=''))
db.define_table('mother',

I've also checked that at database (mysql) level both name and description
fields are defined for the tables - May be that is why insert/update work
via the script.

*I am able to successfully insert data in mother table via script (e.g.
db.mother.insert(name=Alice))*
But when I use appadmin to insert new record into mother table, I get the
following error :
I have a sqlform.grid somewhere in the app, I get same error there too ( I
think appadmin also uses sqlform.grid internally)

I try to update child record - In the dropdown I see mother's names

What is wrong with the table definitions ?

[web2py] Re: Cookie chaos- please see this example
The point is... why use cookies al all when there is an app-level session? If you use cookies it may be because you want to do something that canot be done with sessions.

[web2py] Re: Cookie chaos- please see this example
To me a default where apps share cookies doesn't seem out of with line with the other things apps share- the default logger for example. Cookies are for end-user functionality; the logger is for development/debugging. For the most part, the apps don't share anything. Just as making an app-specific logger can be achieved by passing request.application to a new instance, so we can prefix app-specific cookies with the app name. To me it's the more obvious default. If the apps are truly independent and unrelated, I would think using a cookie would more likely be for some app-specific functionality. On the other hand, in most cases, you probably don't have multiple apps running on the same domain, or if you do, those apps are related and might need to share cookies. But it still might be safer to require the developer to set the path explicitly. Note, I think this is reasonably well documented in the book: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/4#Cookies.

Re: [web2py] Re: How do larger teams develop with Web2py?
Luc, I don't see that. Web2py allows your team to work colaboratively. We work this way in our company. By the way, I'd say some characteristics enforce this separation. In Django, for example, you must have your routes planned and templates coded to allow programmers to work. Without them, you cannot see any running code. In Web2py you can quick off immediately because you don't need to plan urls in advance and you have default views. This way, your frontend devs can be disconnected from your backend devs. Later, you can worry about standardized urls and don't change anything in your app. We're working this way with great success. -- Vinicius Assef On 08/09/2012 01:25 PM, Luc Chase wrote: Must admit site is funny; I almost bought the t-shirt.

If you edit your profile, logout, change your facebook profile, login again using janrain, should web2py keep the current local profile or update it? The bug report suggested that web2oy should always give preference to the local profile. I changed web2py accordingly. In practice this change will probably not affect anybody because none of the services sends any information stored by auth_user. Yet, please check it.

[web2py] Re: How do larger teams develop with Web2py?
I think others should share their view on this but I will add my two cents (not sure very web2py specific). Most of the best projects I have seen in web2py are written by small teams (same goes for most open source web apps I have seen in my life). In web2py there is an order in which you do things. first you write the models, then you write the controllers, finally you apply the views. The fact that there is an oder and that very little repetition of code it means it is difficult for people to work in parallel on the same project during the initial phase. This means that going from 0 to a working prototype is better done by a small team (1-3 people). Things change after that. A small team does not make good testers and does not make good documentation. There are all things that can be parallelized and are best done by different people. Things are also different if a project is comprised of modules that are independent or if the project is designed from the beginning as a set of plugins and modules. For example if your project is comprised of many apps they can be worked on independently and in parallel. Of if the app is required to talk with third party services, it is reasonable to have different people work in parallel to create modules to interface with those services. I can say web2py itself is now being worked on in parallel. Different people are more or less in change of different modules and we work on them independently on fixing bugs and adding features. This is one under a global quality control enforced by Anthony and Jonathan. We have some unwritten rules by which we operate (good: decrease size, fix bugs, add features, portablity; bad: change of behavior, bloated code) and usually we do not even need much discussion on proposed changes when they affect a single module or fall clearly in one's domain of expertise. Many of our discussions are about adding new features that may affect multiple parts of the code, what the consequences may be for users, and whether the proposed approach is sufficiently general.

In order to fix an issue I had to introduce a slight change of behavior and I am not sure what is the best way to handle it. If you login using a third party service (for example janrain using facebook) and the service sends info about you, if web2py has corresponding fields in auth_user, it stores them. If you edit your profile, logout, change your facebook profile, login again using janrain, should web2py keep the current local profile or update it? The bug report suggested that web2oy should always give preference to the local profile. I changed web2py accordingly. In practice this change will probably not affect anybody because none of the services sends any information stored by auth_user. Yet, please check it.

Re: [web2py] Re: Cookie chaos- please see this example
The fact is, there is no default. The default is determined by the browser behavior when the cookie has no attributes.

Cookies are for end-user functionality; the logger is for development/debugging. For the most part, the apps don't share anything. Just as making an app-specific logger can be achieved by passing request.application to a new instance, so we can prefix app-specific cookies with the app name. To me it's the more obvious default. If the apps are truly independent and unrelated, I would think using a cookie would more likely be for some app-specific functionality. On the other hand, in most cases, you probably don't have multiple apps running on the same domain, or if you do, those apps are related and might need to share cookies. But it still might be safer to require the developer to set the path explicitly. Note, I think this is reasonably well documented in the book: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/4#Cookies.

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py on appfog
Hi Mandar, I have tried pythonanywhere. You are right that they are slow. They have been having some problems (there is a post on the forums related to that), which they are fixing. It appears they are also going to move from Apache to nginx server. I hope speeds improve once they have fixed the issues, since their customer service is first class and their prices are better than other hosts.

Perhaps my experience would have been better if I tried during business hours while their live chat support was open, but I don't plan to use AppFog after this experience. The highlights: They advertise unlimited apps, but you're limited by how many apps you can squeeze into the RAM your account gets. Sure, you don't have the hard cap of 10 apps like App Engine (still?) gives you, but unlimited isn't really true AppFog's founder wants you to believe they're proving PaaS doesn't have to be slow and expensive, but I found AppFog to be slow, and their pricing gets nutty-expensive very fast Getting my app working at all was a trying experience, and AppFog doesn't offer much in the way of documentation or debug output to help you No sign of a cron system, so you'll be relying on web2py's built-in cron (didn't check if it works there, but I assume so) All apps have a 100MB disk limit, and I don't see a way to buy more. Better hope you're apps don't get very big! You do have a writable filesystem, for what that's worth with the 100MB disk use limit. I didn't check whether all instances access the same FS (that's kind of an important way so design the service) My conclusion: If you want a free place to host something that (really, really) doesn't need to be performant, AppFog is a decent choice because: It has a writable filesystem, which sets it apart from App Engine It has MySQL, which sets it apart from App Engine It looks more likely to stick around than some of the other free web host services that I've seen mentioned here However, to get that free hosting you'll have to put up with terrible performance (or highly variable performance if it magically speeds up by tomorrow morning), poor documentation, and a tricky and opaque setup procedure. On to doing stuff, and statistics! First off, I could not find any links on their site instructing me on how to configure a Python app to work on AppFog. I eventually gave up and resorted to Googling for a tutorial, which led me to this section in AppFog's docs. Not sure how you are supposed to find that. That link isn't too helpful, though- it shows how to make a Flask site that works on AppFog, and links to working Bottle and Django sites, but doesn't spell out how to make a generic WSGI site work. To make my simple web2py site work, I had to do the following: mv wsgihandler.py wsgi.py # AppFog needs wsgi.py. I tried a symlink instead of a move, but couldn't make AppFog work in that arrangement ln -s wsgi.py wsgihandler.py # This ensures updates to web2py affect your wsgi.py gem install af af login af push appname # This gives you an Amazon East app. I can't figure out how to use `af` to deploy to a different infrastructure I tried creating an app on the Rackspace infrastructure through AppFog's web admin `af update appname`, but couldn't get my app to start. It didn't start automatically, and `af start appname --debug` tells me I don't have the run mode available. So no Rackspace for me. Once I got my app running on AppFog's Amazon EC2 infrastructure (after a number of false starts related to not having wsgi.py) I noticed my app ran very slowly. The front page of my app doesn't really do anything; it could almost be a static HTML file, yet it was unbearably slow on

[web2py] Re: Web2Py compute fields not working on update
If you look at issue 822 you will see an example of a thumb that works on
update. As the comments say, you have to not set writeable to false for the
thumb. If you do set writeable to false then compute only works on add not
edit or update.
So my experience is that compute for images to create a thumb does work on
update.

[web2py] Re: DAL belongs() fails on App Engine
i had to look up common_filters.based on your experience i would assume that this is being implemented as a query filter rather than getting results from the DB and then filtering them. so what is must be causing in your case is: posts = db((db.posts.id.belongs(post_ids)) (db.posts.post_date=request.now)).select(db.posts.ALL,orderby=db.posts.post_date, cache =(cache.ram, 60)) it *might* work if you put an orderby on that is db.posts.id|db.posts.post_date i'm not sure. you might have to remove the common filter for this query and then filter the results. (i don't have experience with common filters and how they are implemented) GAE has a restriction on IN queries (web2py belongs queries) that they have no more than 30 items in the list. because i said so says google.

Also, is there some significance to limiting the belongs lists to 30 items? On Thursday, August 9, 2012 4:24:13 PM UTC-4, howesc wrote: the query and the error message do not match. your query has no orderby, yet the error message suggests there is an orderby property set. this confuses me. i do: db(db.table.id.belongs([list of items not more than 30 long])).select() all the time on GAE and it works for me (latest stable web2py, and the last time i checked trunk though that was a few weeks ago) note that cache does nothing on selects on GAE due to the inability to serialize Rows objects to memcache (at least i think that is the limitation) cfh On Thursday, August 9, 2012 10:40:33 AM UTC-7, spiffytech wrote: I'm trying to use the DAL belongs clause on App Engine and am getting an error. posts = db(db.posts.id.belongs(post_ids)).select(db.posts.ALL, cache=( cache.ram, 60)) Produces: BadArgumentError: First ordering property must be the same as inequality filter property, if specified for this query; received __key__, expected post_date Some Googling suggests this can be due to not providing a sort key.

[web2py] Dynamic Ajax Content and Jquery
I guess this is really more of a jquery question but I figured there may be
some easier web2py builtin way to do this...
I'm doing some custom auto completion on an input field and thought the
example from the book made more sense for my usage (as opposed to the built
in autocomplete widget). That part is working great:
** book example code:
form
input type=text id=month name=month style=width: 250px /br /
div style=position: absolute; id=suggestions
class=suggestions/div
/form
script
jQuery(#month).keyup(function(){
ajax('month_selector', ['month'], 'suggestions')});
/script
Okay so the problem I'm having is that instead of Months like the example
above, I am returning divs with class of 'button' and using jquery ui to
try to turn those into buttons after they are loaded in. I'm having trouble
with the jquery syntax here.
right now I have:
jQuery(.big_search).keyup(function(){
ajax('partial_search', ['big_search'], 'search_hint')});
$('.button').button();
});
The buttons flash for a second and quickly disappear. Can someone throw me
some pointers here or a better place to look?
Thanks in Advance!

[web2py] Re: Dynamic Ajax Content and Jquery
Here is your code reformatted:
jQuery(.big_search).keyup(function() {
ajax('partial_search', ['big_search'], 'search_hint')
});
$('.button').button();
});
The call to .button() happens outside the .keyup() callback (unless that
was a copy/paste error). Even inside, though, I don't think it will wait
for the ajax call to complete. Instead, you might consider using the jQuery
.load() or .ajax() functions directly, both of which take a callback (which
executes after the ajax call completes). Or you could set up a separate
.ajaxSuccess() event handler:
jQuery('.big_search').ajaxSuccess(function(e, xhr, settings) {
if (settings.url == 'partial_search') {
jQuery('.button').button();
}
});

[web2py] Re: Dynamic Ajax Content and Jquery
That did it!
You were correct that I had a copy and paste error above. I believe you are
also correct that I should have done this with .load() instead.
I didn't know there was an ajaxSuccess() handler -- I was struggling to try
to get it to work with .live() and .delegate() but your method works for me.
Thanks again for the help man. Really appreciate web2py and this community.

I'm not familiar with jQuery UI .button(), though, so there may be other
problems with your approach.

[web2py] Re: Stream a couchdb attachment with web2py
Thanks Massimo, this is working!
What I am not able to get is the time-slider to work in the audio element.
I guess that since I am streaming the audio file, the browser has no way of
knowing the size.
Is there a way to solve this problem? Is it possible to send the size of
the audio file in the response headers? I am dealing with mp3 files mainly.
I am not sure if it is possible to know beforehand (without
reading/decoding the full mp3 file) the length of the audio track. I would
say that the mp3 format (and other audio formats) must have some metadata
at the beginning of the file specifying things like duration, volume, ...
but I am not familiar with these details.
And as a more general problem: is it possible at all to randomly access a
streaming audio file? I would say that this is not possible.
Any ideas / workarounds to get the slider working?
Thanks,
Daniel

Hello,
I have some sound files in a couchdb database (not related to web2py). My
web2py application has access to this database, and I want to stream the
sound files so that they can be listened with the HTML audio tag, like this:
audio src=http://www.myserver.com/.../track06.mp3; preload=auto
/audio
I am planning to do this streaming as follows:
response.stream(open(filename),chunk_size=4096)
But I have some open questions:
1. My filename is not in the local filesystem, but in a couchdb
database, accessible via REST. How can I open that?
2. What kind of request will the audio tag send when it is activated,
GET/POST/...? Can this be handled with web2py?
Thanks,

[web2py] auth.user_group_role() method
This method seems to be still in trunk (http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/browse/gluon/tools.py#2832), as I cannot find it in the latest stable. It takes a user id and return the name/role of the group that user is in. However, it doesn't seem to be able to work with custom groups. For example, if I do auth.settings.create_user_groups = False and create two custom groups (e.g. 'students' and 'teachers') to accomodate all the users. This auth.user_group_role() method probably will fail because it assume that every group follows the naming convention which is set by: http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/browse/gluon/tools.py#963. Can someone confirm whether this is indeed the case. Thanks! --
[web2py] Re: auth.user_group_role() method
I don't think that's the purpose of this method. It appears its only purpose is to provide the user-specific role assigned to each user upon registration, which is only relevant if auth.settings.create_user_groups is set. It might be a good idea if it checked for auth.settings.create_user_groups and returned None in that case rather than generating an error, though.

If you login using a third party service (for example janrain using facebook) and the service sends info about you, if web2py has corresponding fields in auth_user, it stores them. If you edit your profile, logout, change your facebook profile, login again using janrain, should web2py keep the current local profile or update it? The bug report suggested that web2oy should always give preference to the local profile. I changed web2py accordingly. In practice this change will probably not affect anybody because none of the services sends any information stored by auth_user. Yet, please check it.
