[web2py] videos not working in auth.wiki page
Is anyone using video links with auth.wiki ? I'm just getting the bottom bar with the Play button, but nothing else and nothing happens when I press Play. I did have success with plugin_wiki, but I would like to get it up and running with auth.wiki. I've tried with Chrome and Safari. Thanks --

[web2py] Re: Cannot import module 'lpod'

[web2py] Re: Very simple issue: redirect on login - auth.settings.login_next
Instead, perhaps we can just improve the documentation. Yes, it would be great if the documentation were changed to something like your explanation below, but clearer on the navbar bit. I believe you concluded back in July that the documentation could be clearer. you just have to set the referrer_actions argument to auth.navbar() appropriately auth.navbar(referrer_actions=None) did not work for Rob or for myself. Peter On Wednesday, 14 November 2012 19:27:35 UTC, Anthony wrote: If setting auth.user.settings to a URL stopped the bit of code that generates _next when default/user/register is 'called' then it would seem to fit in with developers expectations. Keep in mind, currently it is possible to enable referrers (i.e., the _next parameter in the URLs) while specifying a default redirect in case there is no referrer (i.e., via auth.settings.login_next). If we change the behavior, then we lose this capability and are limited to referrers only (with no default redirect) or a single fixed default only (with no referrers). So, we would be breaking backward compatibility and losing functionality. Instead, perhaps we can just improve the documentation. I don't think it's that complicated. Redirects from Auth pages are controlled via two methods: the _next parameter in the URL, and the auth.settings.[action]_next settings, with the former taking precedence. If you instead prefer the latter to take precedence, you just have to set the referrer_actions argument to auth.navbar() appropriately (or avoid using auth.navbar() altogether). Anthony --
[web2py] Web2py auth_membership table
Hi, I need only one auth_user form with the option to select the group membership in order to get a simple way to add users. I'm thinking override the auth_membership table use, and add a reference from auth_user directly to auth_group to achieve it, also formatting the output of the drop down menu with format='%(role)s' But I need statements like '@auth.requires_membership(group_id=1)' to secure my app... First, what do you think about my approach? Second, how can I get a feature like @auth.requires_role(role_id=1) that get the reference from my auth_user db table? Third, how can I add the format to the auth_group table if it was created by web2py? PD: In the past I was solve it using manual insert code or another approaches like suggested by Bruno here: http://rochacbruno.com.br/web2py-manage-users-and-membership-in-the-same-form/ but now I want achieve it more cleanly...

[web2py] Web2Py and MS Access
There is very little information on this topic available on the internet. I have found one post where a user asked if Web2Py could be used with MS Access and a few users including Massimo suggested that it might be possible using the MSSql driver. There was no further information to suggest that this idea has been tested yet. While I understand the T-SQL is not entirely compatible with MS Access but most basic SQL statements such as Select, Update and Delete will work just fine. But in worst case I assume I should still be able to run raw SQL statements. If I wanted to Test Web2Py with PyODBC / MSSql to connect to MS Access what would the connection string look like? Bearing in mind that MS Access is a file based database and does not run behind an IP Address. Any help on this or anyone else's experience with Web2py and Access would be appreciated. Thanks Simon --

I used 1.99.4 for two projects using apache, mod_wsgi, postgresql 8.4, psycopg2 on RHEL 6. But I never use Rocket or pg8000 driver and I didn't use temporary tables with these...

[web2py] Re: Web2Py and MS Access
You are right, but with web2py you have the option of giving each user a
copy web2py (which does not need installing - just unzip), run the
webserver on localhost only and point everyone at the same database on a
shared drive. This is why I need Access to allow concurrent users. I know
it's not perfect, but when you are working in a local IT department
reacting to local business requirements with one hand tied behind your
back, pepper spray in your eyes and pair of electrodes on your testicles
because of Corporate IT restrictions, you have to try and think outside of

I'd imagine the connection string would look something like this:

Have no idea how the whole user id/password part would work

[web2py] Multilanguage website
Hi folks! :) I am here for asking you an opinion. Since I am developing a multilanguage website, I am wondering if there is a best practice for managing the translation of the content. I mean, now I added in my routers: myapp = dict(languages=['en', 'it', 'pl'], default_language='en') so I have the chosen language in *request.uri_language* and I can force the translation in every page. In my mind this applies well to the translation of the interface, but when it comes to the content it means that I have to write all the content of the pages in the dictionaries which are in the folder *languages*. Is that correct? Or should I put the content on txt files and select them in the controller on the basis of the chosen language? How would you manage this? Thanks in advance for your precious opinions. Cheers, David --
Re: [web2py] REF: lambda table variable passing error
You need to pass a form to the modal...
Do you want to embed create, read and update form into modal?
If so, I am not sure if that SQLFORM.grid is the best option or if there is
a short cut... But basically to embed something in modal, you need a
form... The way to get your form is to use web2py component. You can do
that with LOAD command in your view then you just need to wrap those
component into modal bootstrap code... And bind a trigger to a botton to
make the modal appears...
I try to use modal last week or the one before, I am not sure why, but the
form tag of the form was clipped away so when I was submitting the form
embedded into modal it was submitting all the form included into the
page... Didn't investigate (don't have time)...

Re: [web2py] Multilanguage website
strings, small words, titles can be used with the T operator for full blown articles, posts, etc you can use T too, but if your website is basically content (posts, manuals, etc) it may be a lot easier to maintain a default content (file,db row, etc) and all the translations that, if not found, fall back to the default english content page.

Re: [web2py] REF: lambda table variable passing error
That a major issue to me to migrate to SQLFORM.grid!
I would not show the ID of the record to my user.
I had a similar issue with crud.select or SQLTABLE in the pass and solve it
like this :
db[request.args(0)].fieldThatServeAsIDRepresent.represent=\
lambda fieldThatServeAsIDRepresent, record:
A(some_dict[fieldThatServeAsIDRepresent],\
_href=URL(r=request,f='read',args=(request.args(0),str(
record.id
form = crud.select(db.table)
form = remove_id_column_func(form)
But I think that this approach doesn't work with SQLFORM.grid since it
really need the ID

[web2py] Re: Web2Py and MS Access
You may be right for speed but I have never done any testing so I couldn't
comment, but my point was regarding the ability to have concurrent writes,
which I should have made clearer. As it happens the size of application I
am developing this would not be a problem, but as I have learned to my
peril over the years who knows how the same application will be used next
year.
That was more or less my point. I don't know how well access supports
concurrent writes better than SQLite. SQLite holds a block on every
update/write to the db, but with default values, if the operation takes
less than 5 seconds (the default timeout variable, that you can enlarge
using driver_args={'timeout': 30}) the problem of locking doesn't show up.
What is instead super-valid from your standpoint is that an access db
shared on a Windows network is safer than SQLite, because it seems to use
some internals at its advantage. If instead your network is samba or any
other network-ish mounted disk (webdav, samba, etc) concurrent writes
will not be handled so well. Also, sharing over network a file can be a lot
less speedier than having data exchanged with a normal db server. All
things considered, you may try to convince your IT department than sparing
an uncostly 128mb VM holding mysql or postgresql will make everyone's life
better.

[web2py] Re: wxpython app using web2py username and password
My main concern is that with this being a desktop app that I don't want to have to keep the latest versions of those files on the client machines. I switched my desktop authorization to read the Windows username and then match it to a username in the auth_user table and rely on the Windows authentication to ensure that user is logged in properly. I validate that they are on the proper domain and they are logged in with an id in the table. Now I don't need to worry about keep those files current on multiple clients. -Jim On Thursday, November 15, 2012 2:01:12 PM UTC-6, Niphlod wrote: ehm validators.py (if not all, just crypt and lazycrypt, plus Validator original class), utils.py and pbkdf2 is all you need.

[web2py] Re: Web2Py and MS Access
Your experience with MS Access will not be good I think. It doesn't even pretend to support SQL standards as far as I remember, and you'll have a very difficult time getting support. The advice to consider the free edition of SQL server is something you should look at. You get nice management tools, and the restrictions of the free version aren't likely to bother you. The performance, robustness, management tools and support is a completely different level than Access. Access is not a server, multi-user access is handled at the OS file level and it's not good. --

[web2py] Manually setting email for auth registration form
I have some custom requirements for registration, but I still want to use
auth.register() with a custom form view to rely on web2py's form validation.
Background: I have a table of allowed email addresses with a generated
secret hash. (kind of like an invitation only registration). When you
access the secret invite link I look up the secret hash in the database and
want to use the auth.register() form without the email field so I can set
the user's email to the one I already have.
I have come across 2 problems:
1. When my custom form doesn't include an email field, the form does not
seem to be processed and just redirects to itself. (see comment in view
below)
2. When I set the email field to be not writable, the registration fails
and I get a ticket:

Does the plugin_wiki syntax work in auth.wiki ? (I'll try it tonight).
From the book (plugins section):
For example, to embed a YouTube video in a plugin_wiki page, you can do
``
name: youtube
code: l7AWnfFRc7g
``:widget
or to embed the same widget in a web2py view, you can do:
{{=plugin_wiki.widget('youtube',code='l7AWnfFRc7g')}}
