[web2py] Upload field with clear text filename
I'm not sure why this is difficult, but I see many posts about this when I search, yet none exactly work for me. This seems like it should be easy but is surprisingly difficult in web2py. I want to keep a table of uploaded files with the uploads in a blob field and the names in clear text in a filename field. Like this model: db.define_table(fileobject, Field(filename,string,length=50,readable=False,writable=False), Field(upload,upload,uploadfield=object_data), Field(object_type,string,length=20,readable=False,writable=False), Field(object_data,blob), Field(owner,reference auth_user,default=auth.user_id,readable=False, writable=False), Field(saved,datetime,default=datetime.now(),readable=False,writable= False), Field(state,string,length=16,readable=False,writable=False), migrate=settings.migrate) Reading the relevant posts and the online book lead me to believe the way is with a controller like this one: def index(): form=SQLFORM(db.fileobject) if request.vars.upload: form.vars.filename = request.vars.upload.filename if form.process().accepted: response.flash = 'form accepted' elif form.errors: response.flash = 'form has errors' return dict(form=form) And yet this controller does not work. The blob is filled in but the filename is ignored and shows in the table as None. In fact, form.vars is an empty collection and placing form.vars.filename in it does not produce an error, but it is ignored by the form processing. In addition to the filename, I'd like to add the information about the object type etc. at the same point in the process, i.e. after the file has been chosen but before it has been loaded into the database. I've been trying to scan through the code (I'm using 2.3.2 source) to answer my own questions about the upload field but it's just taking too much time. The upload field is one of those parts of web2py that you either love or... uh... don't. To me it seems designed for a very specific use model. If my use model deviates too much then using upload is like pounding square pegs into round holes. I'm tired of pounding. Someone show me how to whittle off the corners of my square peg!

[web2py] Re: Upload field with clear text filename
Are you saying you want the name in the filename field to be encoded into the string stored in the upload field so the file has the name in the filename field upon download? If so, then try: if request.vars.upload and request.vars.filename: request.vars.upload.filename = request.vars.filename form = SQLFORM(db.fileobject) That will re-assign the filename of the uploaded file to the value entered by the user, and web2py will then encode that user-entered filename into the new filename. Another option is to do nothing upon upload and instead replace the original filename with the user-entered filename upon download (which you could do via a custom_retrieve function for the upload field). Note, web2py relies on the filename extension to set the HTTP headers appropriately upon download, so you may want to add some logic to obtain the original filename extension in case the user fails to enter it.

Re: [web2py] Re: delete uploads with SQLFORM.factory
Hi, I had a look at sqlform.py, the error comes from the fact that if a
default value is set for the field upload, web2py tries to read it and
store it as the new value for the upload field. As a result it is not
possible to me to edit forms and remove uploads by setting the default
value, this trick doesn't work.
Moreover, I tried to fix the initial error about the missing file, by
setting db.test_img['picture'].default equal to real path of the file.
This worked well but than, if I understood correctly how web2py works, it
tried to store again the default value as the new value, starting a kind of
loop! That was wrong, and actually this has never worked, it stopped due to
the 'error filename' to long.
The good thing is that by changing this two line (line 1394 of sqlhtml.py)
f = self.table[fieldname].default or ''
fields[fieldname] = f
to:
fields[fieldname] = self.table[fieldname].default
It seems that this solved the issue, but of course, I need something better.
2012/12/27 Paolo paolo.vall...@gmail.com
Hi Massimo, thank for the answer, I updated the code but the problem is
still there, I made several tests, no one figured out what is wrong. So
that I tried to simplify the code as follows:
db.define_table('test_img',
Field(picture, upload,
uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder,'uploads','pictures'),
uploadseparate=True),
Field('created_on', 'datetime', default=request.now, writable=False)
)
def sqlform_add():
form = SQLFORM.factory(db.test_img, _class='well',
upload=URL('default', 'download'),
uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder,
'uploads','pictures'),
uploadseparate=True, table_name='test')
if form.process(dbio=False).accepted:
id = db.test_img.insert(**dict(form.vars))
return response.render('generic.html', dict(form=form))
def sqlform_edit():
img = db(db.test_img.id0).select().first()
db.test_img['picture'].default = img['picture']
form = SQLFORM.factory(db.test_img, _class='well',
upload=URL('default', 'download'),
uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder,
'uploads','pictures'),
uploadseparate=True, table_name='test')
if form.process(dbio=False).accepted:
print 'form accepted'
return response.render('generic.html', dict(form=form))
what I got:
- adding an img with sqlform_add and then removing it with appadmin --
worked
- adding an img with appadmin and then removing it with sqlform_edit --
failed
- using both sqlform_add and sqlform_edit -- failed
Now I am thinking about the way I set the default value, maybe for a field
as an upload I have to set something more?

Re: [web2py] Where to host web2py
Gustavo,
Make sure that you're accessing it via https, I've noticed that if I click
on the admin button from the main page accessed via http, it uses whatever
transport protocol that was specified to get there.
If you're already doing this I'd take a look at the web2py logs in
$OPENSHIFT_PYTHON_LOG_DIR. A while back I had submitted a bug for how their
proxy didn't set wsgi params when it passed the request to the gear. That's
been the only time I've run into an issue like that.
Also make sure your options_std.py is linked to options.py
If you come across any more info, I'd be happy to take a look.

Do all the openshift stuff first, then download web2py and copy it into

I would suggest using the application file I provide on the github repo
and modify:
This:
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.environ['OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR'], 'libs',
'gluon'))
to This:
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.environ['OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR'], 'wsgi',
'web2by', 'gluon')) #honestly I don't know if sys.path.append handles stuff
recursively so maybe this isn't necessary and you just comment out the
gluon line.
There are other nuances like addressing db host / port / user / pass
variables that should all be setup in wsgi/application file. For example if
you're using SQL lite, I have an example variable setup in the
wsgi/application handler and then in your model you'd just use something
like:
db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite',folder=SQLITE_DIR)
If you want to use the admin, you'll need to create a parameters_443.py
with your hashed password in it but there are caveats to using the IDE in
the cloud since app changes are applied via rhc / git. This is why I
created the openshift deployer.

@Simone, an other improvement to the script could be to combine into a
single server the 80, and 443 to avoid duplicating configuration, as
stated
here :
http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/configuring_https_servers.**html**
#single_http_https_serverhttp://nginx.org/en/docs/http/configuring_https_servers.html#single_http_https_server
I don't had test this.
Also, here the code for permanent redirection
server {
server_name $hostname;
listen 80;
return 301 http*s*://$hostname$request_uri; # NOTE: I am not sure
for $hostname here, because I didn't set hostname for my VM until now, as
in the example (URL below) we can use domainName.com instead if properly
configure in nginx
...
}
People may want separate configs for http and https. The script
objective is to have a working copy of web2py. If we start to follow such
requests, we'd end up installing postgresql and redis too :P
@Paolo: try the script found at the dropbox link. If the same error
happens I think we need the log of pip and a hand by Roberto on the
specific error...

Re: [web2py] Can the parametric router 301 redirect from www?

[web2py] Can web2py be used for highly complex relational databases?
Can web2py be used for highly complex relational databases for large fiscal projects?

What components of web2py would start to get slow or not work well when having so many tables? If web2py would instead be better used to prototype the Fi$cal system, what would be good production-version candidates to migrate to? Pure Python using sqlAlchemy? Java? Anything that would make migration easier such as Python-based frameworks? Thanks, Alex Glaros --

It's not deployed on any domain, so just posting the source: https://github.com/ilyabe/BillSplitter The basic idea is to give roommates an easy option to split bills, i.e. the main/responsible (admin) roommate pays, uploads the bills to the app, and roommates sign up to auto-pay their portions.

[web2py] Re: upload from Edit page
Hi Massimo,
I am using upload attachments. I have Create and Edit pages with number of
fields. Upload is one of the fields. Now in create page, it was pretty
straight forward using, Upload field in model.
Table name is service_attachments
Field('attachment','upload',uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder,
'attachments')) (Model)
if form.vars.attachment:
form.vars.attachment_name = request.vars.attachment.filename
id =
thisdb.service_attachments.insert(**thisdb.service_attachments._filter_fields(form.vars))
.(Controller)
And this works great.It inserts the record into the table and also saves
the attachment into the folder as -
service_attachments.attachment.b19d4ef38978e8e6.746d707437756c626f.jpg
Now for edit functionality page, I want users to be able to add more
images. Just calling the form.custom.widget.attachment again is not serving
the purpose. So I tried doing, manual upload for this particular page. Eg,
input class=upload id=service_attachments_attachment name=attachment
type=file / (view)
I recreated this HTML statement with taking reference of what the Create
upload field creates in HTML..
In Controller,
if request.vars.attachment != '':
form.vars.attachment = request.vars.attachment.file
filename = request.vars.attachment.filename
form.vars.attachment_name = filename
id =
thisdb.service_attachments.insert(**thisdb.service_attachments._filter_fields(form.vars))
Just Assigning this manual field to the already existing upload field.
This saves the file, the same way as upload field does. It does save the
file in the folder specified and also inserts the record in the
service_attachments table.But, it saves the extension of that field as
.txt, regardless of what the file type is. It saves the file as .txt in the
folder and the db record.
Let me now if this is giving you the clear picture.

That with Edit page is not the same, as it is not about editing the

filename = request.vars.attachment.filename
form.vars.attachment_name = filename

thisdb.service_attachments.insert(**thisdb.service_attachments._filter_fields(form.vars))
This follows the very similar procedure of saving the encrypted version
of attachment name in the attachment field, but it changes the extension to
.txt for all the attachments. It saves the attachment as
service_attachments.attachment.b19d4ef38978e8e6.746d707437756c626f.txt
where as the orginal attachment is photo.JPG. So ideall it should save it
as service_attachments.attachment.b19d4ef38978e8e6.746d707437756c626f.JPG.
Can anyone please help me with this?

[web2py] Re: Upload field with clear text filename
I see. I think the problem is that you have set the writable attribute of the filename field to False. In that case, try setting the default value of that field: if request.vars.upload: db.fileobject.filename.default = request.vars.upload.filename form = SQLFORM(db.fileobject) Anthony On Friday, December 28, 2012 2:28:53 PM UTC-5, Joe Barnhart wrote: Hi Anthony -- I want the opposite of this -- I want the original text filename, not a replacement. The book example I followed did not work. I found at least one problem -- the test if request.vars.upload: does not work. Even though the upload field has a valid filename, the FieldStorage object returns False for the test. In the book the recommended test was if request.vars.upload != None but that was found to have a walkback if the submit button was pressed without choosing a filename, as request.vars.upload returns an empty string in that case. -- Joe On Friday, December 28, 2012 2:18:24 AM UTC-8, Anthony wrote: Are you saying you want the name in the filename field to be encoded into the string stored in the upload field so the file has the name in the filename field upon download? If so, then try: if request.vars.upload and request.vars.filename: request.vars.upload.filename = request.vars.filename form = SQLFORM(db.fileobject) That will re-assign the filename of the uploaded file to the value entered by the user, and web2py will then encode that user-entered filename into the new filename. Another option is to do nothing upon upload and instead replace the original filename with the user-entered filename upon download (which you could do via a custom_retrieve function for the upload field). Note, web2py relies on the filename extension to set the HTTP headers appropriately upon download, so you may want to add some logic to obtain the original filename extension in case the user fails to enter it.

This seems like it should be easy but is surprisingly difficult in web2py. I want to keep a table of uploaded files with the uploads in a blob field and the names in clear text in a filename field. Like this model: db.define_table(fileobject, Field(filename,string,length=50,readable=False,writable=False), Field(upload,upload,uploadfield=object_data), Field(object_type,string,length=20,readable=False,writable=False ), Field(object_data,blob), Field(owner,reference auth_user,default=auth.user_id,readable= False,writable=False), Field(saved,datetime,default=datetime.now(),readable=False, writable=False), Field(state,string,length=16,readable=False,writable=False), migrate=settings.migrate) Reading the relevant posts and the online book lead me to believe the way is with a controller like this one: def index(): form=SQLFORM(db.fileobject) if request.vars.upload: form.vars.filename = request.vars.upload.filename if form.process().accepted: response.flash = 'form accepted' elif form.errors: response.flash = 'form has errors' return dict(form=form) And yet this controller does not work. The blob is filled in but the filename is ignored and shows in the table as None. In fact, form.vars is an empty collection and placing form.vars.filename in it does not produce an error, but it is ignored by the form processing. In addition to the filename, I'd like to add the information about the object type etc. at the same point in the process, i.e. after the file has been chosen but before it has been loaded into the database. I've been trying to scan through the code (I'm using 2.3.2 source) to answer my own questions about the upload field but it's just taking too much time. The upload field is one of those parts of web2py that you either love or... uh... don't. To me it seems designed for a very specific use model. If my use model deviates too much then using upload is like pounding square pegs into round holes. I'm tired of pounding. Someone show me how to whittle off the corners of my square peg!

[web2py] Server-side AngularJS execution?
Search spiders such as Google—though they now execute AJAX and parse the result—do not work as well with dynamic content as static content. So I was thinking if there was some way to execute the AngularJS as static files; for search-spiders and non-javascript enabled browsers; but when they have JavaScript support execute it client-side. It would also save the trouble of implementing each view twice; once in web2py views the other in AngularJS MVC. Would this be possible? If not, how would you recommend I go about doing this? Thanks for all suggestions, Alec Taylor --

[web2py] Re: Can web2py be used for highly complex relational databases?
I have some experience with a large peoplesoft system where they claims
thousands of tables. Turns out almost everything I needed was in less than
10 tables.
Basically most of the tables were lookup tables used simply as key:value
store for the possible values of a field. For example table GENDER
{'M':'Male','F':'Female','O':'Other'}.
So 10 tables with 100 columns each and one lookup table for each column
gives you more than 10,000 tables. I suspects that is your case too.
All systems that claim an insane amount of tables belong to this category.
The way to handle it is to load all lookup tables in cache and use cache
instead of database access to convert key-value. In fact the values for
lookup tables almost never change.
I suggest before you embark in this venture do the following exercise: make
a list of all table names. For each table make list of fields in the table
and count the number of records (more or less).
You will find many tables with less then 100 records and less then 10
columns. You will find a few tables with more than 10 columns and more then
10 records. You need to find out how many tables belong to one category
and how many to the other.
If this is the case, as I suspect, than you can use web2py but you need to
setup some clever caching system to hable the lookup tables. It would be
the same with other frameworks since you don't want to join everything all
the time or your database will grind to a halt.
It is also possible I am completely wrong in my assumption.
In the case of the peoplesoft system I studied they also were storing all
past versions of each record in the same table as the current record.
Basically every record had had two dates (valid_from, valid_until). Current
records had valid_until set to 2999-12-31. records would never be modified.
The process for modifying a record consisted of creating a copy of the
current record, editing the copy, setting the valid_until=now for the
previous current record, updating all references pointing to the record. Af
course all tables used the same mechanism for versioning thus making the
update process very slow and cumbersome, and all tables un-necessary large.
Yet this simplifies auditing because you can go back to any moment in time
simply by filtering records in a query.
The reason I am explaining all of this is that probably you are going to
have to deal with something like this. The problem is not web2py vs other
framework. The problems will be that you need special logic to handle those
tables which is foreign to web2py and many modern frameworks which simply
assume more moder database design practices.
My suggestion is start small and see what happens. Find who are your
primary target users. Find which tables they need to access and create a
web interface for those tables. You will probably be able to factorize the
interaction with the database in many small apps.

That's what I've been doing so far (just 'first_name' was needed).
But if at all possible I would like as few fields as possible per table.
I also wanted to set the primary key of that table to 'email', but it
looks like you have to have the 'id' field no matter what.
