Re: [web2py] Adjusting the width of the textarea
I think that the comment is wrong. Actually, the textarea width is not handled by web2py via js. Modern browsers, except IE, have a textarea resizable and so its width is calculated by browser itself. In this case in order to set a fixed width on all textareas you should set in your custom css textarea {resize:none;} Therefore, imho, your issue is due to other. If you post the interested code (html + css) we may help you.

Re: [web2py] Adjusting the width of the textarea
Can you use the browser developer tools to inspect the element and see which CSS rule is active and where it comes from? Also, try disabling Javascript and see if that affects the display. If all else fails, pack a basic app that demonstrates the problem and attach it here.

So the usual button to redirect to another page I use this button type=button class=btn btn-primary onclick=location.href='{{=URL('gameTime')}}'Done with my squares/button What I am trying to do is click a button that does NOT redirect. If I use a function in defauly.py that has no view in the URL field above, it loads the generic view as advertised. Grrr. Isn't there just a simple way to suppress calling the generic view?

[web2py] Re: IS web2py good for largescale
To me there are three issues with scalability: - database, it is always the bottle neck but there is no differencd between web2py and rails in principle. They can use the same database architecture. - filesystem. web2py by default uses the filesystem more than rails (to store sessions for example). It needs to be configured to store everything on database or, better, to use sticky sessions - caching. You need to cache as much as you can. The built-in system is ok if you have one web2py instance and if you reuse the same keys else you can have a memory leak (keys do not expire with cache.ram). It is better to use proper caching, for example redis. Both web2py and rails work well with Redis. This should always be the last step in development anyway. - use nginx to serve static files. Everything else should not affect scalability. On Saturday, 3 August 2013 14:18:07 UTC-5, Joe Barnhart wrote: I'm not the OP, but I am also risking web2py on a large project... In my case I'm replacing a Rails site that services about 15,000 customers and has a variable workload -- about 5000 users compete for time on the site every week. It has a database size of about 20GB of small records (~1K ea.) and each user will require about 200-500 DB requests over the typical session of about 30 min. The site currently does about $200k in CC charges per month. I am looking at deployment on OpenShift or its brothers, or AWS. I considered GAE but the limitations on join make life difficult for me as my db is extensively indexed and cross-linked. It has about 40 tables and they participate in a lot of 1:many joins.

I'm actually a bit mystified by the choices (nginx, apache, etc) so I'm getting a friend who knows a lot more than I to help in that area. As a developer, web2py thrills me. Having lurked here a lot I'm pretty confident it can be scaled up to handle the load, but there's always a risk -- is my db schema flawed in some way, or other design decisions that crater performance?

Re: [web2py] Re: Problem with function [pyfpdf] add_font() on GAE.
I found some solution... it isn't the best one, but it works... The problem is with using pickle on GAE. The best solution would be to overload/rewrite the add_font() function where for GAE, in such a way, that it would write to a datastore instead of a filesystem. Additionaly ValueError: insecure string pickle error can still occur, I tried b64 encoding according to thishttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/2963602/gae-valueerror-insecure-string-pickle. But still I get errors. So my solution is to overload add_font() function with commented out/deleted parts: if os.path.exists(unifilename): fh = open(unifilename) try: font_dict = pickle.load(fh) finally: fh.close() else: and try: fh = open(unifilename, w) pickle.dump(font_dict, fh) fh.close() except IOError, e: if not e.errno == errno.EACCES: raise # Not a permission error. Because of this the function every time calculates little bit more instead of just reading data from the pickle... but it works on GAE.

This means that once saved to the cache, objects are never removed from it automatically (i.e., they don't get removed after the time_expire period has elapsed).

If the query depends on user input than yes. select(cache=(...)) uses the SQL QUERY as key.

For example when you do rows = db(query).select(cache=(cache.ram,3600),cacheable=True) Is there any way to specify the key, or to empty the cache after some time? Not currently a way to specify the key, though I suppose we could add that option. Here's the code that generates the key: https://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/browse/gluon/dal.py#1705. I suppose you could replicate the key in order to clear the value from the cache if necessary. In general, you should probably limit yourself to caching only a fixed set of queries (that don't take up too much ram). You can also cache the Rows object itself (with your own key) if you do .select(..., cacheable=True), though in that case you lose some of the Rows functionality.

[web2py] Simplest form of internal messaging
Can anyone help me think of a primitive form of internal messaging between users of an app? No external email, nothing fancy because I have limited programming skill. The only requirement is that a user can leave a message for another user, and the other user can reply. Example: 1. User-A leaves a message for User-B, Hi, can you please give me your external email address? 2. User-B says: Sure, here it is, use...@gmail.com So I suppose there might be a db.Internal_Mail table. - auth_user_message_sender - auth_user_message_recipient - subject_of_message - body_of_message - date_time_sent - has_this_message_been_read_yet? 1. set up permissions so that users can read all records in db.Internal_Mail table that have their name either in the auth_user_messsage_sender or auth_user_message_recipient fields 2. set up permissions so that users can edit/delete all records in db.Internal_Mail table that have their name in the auth_user_sender field Based on above, seems that smartgrid or grid could handle all of the requirements except knowing how to reply and to who, which seems complicated to program. To reply, perhaps would have a controller named reply_to_an_email. It would let user 1. search through the emails 2. somehow select only one 3. then create a record in db.Internal_Mail table that switches contents of sender and recipient fields of selected record, copies subject line from the received message, and let's recipient fill out the body of the reply message. Any ideas? Is this already written elsewhere? If not, would this be useful to anyone else?

I considered GAE but the limitations on join make life difficult for me as my db is extensively indexed and cross-linked. It has about 40 tables and they participate in a lot of 1:many joins. I'm pretty happy with PostgreSQL as my database but I have not determined the right web server platform for me. I'm actually a bit mystified by the choices (nginx, apache, etc) so I'm getting a friend who knows a lot more than I to help in that area. As a developer, web2py thrills me. Having lurked here a lot I'm pretty confident it can be scaled up to handle the load, but there's always a risk -- is my db schema flawed in some way, or other design decisions that crater performance? The current Rails site is pretty well loved but it bogs and people are not happy with response time. Also, my end goal is to scale this site x10 or more, so scalability and stability are paramount! -- Joe B. P.S. I'm going to tithe a percentage of my site's profits back to web2py development when it is up. I believe in giving back to those who help you achieve. P.P.S. No, it's not a p0rn site... ;-) On Friday, August 2, 2013 2:46:31 PM UTC-7, Aurelio Tinio wrote: Curious to hear, what do you consider large scale? The more detailed you are about your project the better the response the community can provide. Fwiw, having only worked with web2py since the beginning of the year I've been contemplating similar questions too and essentially the answer is... *it depends*. I've predominantly worked with other web frameworks (mainly Django) in the past and there are definite pros/cons/tradeoffs in my mind of why it'd be better to choose one versus the other. Happy to elaborate but again, please provide more info so the reply could be more targeted. Cheers.

Re: [web2py] Simplest form of internal messaging
A message queue is also needed potentially...if this is real time...also this is python...a monkey can do this... On Aug 4, 2013 9:29 PM, Alex Glaros alexgla...@gmail.com wrote: Can anyone help me think of a primitive form of internal messaging between users of an app? No external email, nothing fancy because I have limited programming skill. The only requirement is that a user can leave a message for another user, and the other user can reply. Example: 1. User-A leaves a message for User-B, Hi, can you please give me your external email address? 2. User-B says: Sure, here it is, use...@gmail.com So I suppose there might be a db.Internal_Mail table. - auth_user_message_sender - auth_user_message_recipient - subject_of_message - body_of_message - date_time_sent - has_this_message_been_read_yet? 1. set up permissions so that users can read all records in db.Internal_Mail table that have their name either in the auth_user_messsage_sender or auth_user_message_recipient fields 2. set up permissions so that users can edit/delete all records in db.Internal_Mail table that have their name in the auth_user_sender field Based on above, seems that smartgrid or grid could handle all of the requirements except knowing how to reply and to who, which seems complicated to program. To reply, perhaps would have a controller named reply_to_an_email. It would let user 1. search through the emails 2. somehow select only one 3. then create a record in db.Internal_Mail table that switches contents of sender and recipient fields of selected record, copies subject line from the received message, and let's recipient fill out the body of the reply message. Any ideas? Is this already written elsewhere? If not, would this be useful to anyone else?
