[web2py] Re: treat url error

[Marlysson Silva]

Try using routes.py in the routes_in and at routes_out redirect to page ( 
controller + view ) that you wish..

[web2py] Re: is_in_db() contains query not work for list:reference type

[黄祥]

there are two problems :
1. because i put it on models, it should check the condition 
if auth_user_employee (fixed)
2. when it's used with another table constructor like label, notnull, 
required, etc it's not work (no traceback error appear), still investigate.

thanks and best regards,

[web2py] suggestion for naming web2py version

[黄祥]

here is the story :
two years ago i made a web2py app, n not used after that, n right now my 
boss asked me to continue improve that app. so i upload the packed old 
web2py app to the web2py current version, but the login is not working, i 
can register (inserted in database), but i can't login after that. (checked 
on database the value is there).
because my boss tell it's urgent, so that i think it's better to make it 
running first with the old version than to find the root cause for it. but 
the problem is i don't know what version of web2py when i build the old 
packed web2py app. i must download several web2py version that build in 
2014 (two years ago)

my suggestion it's better to naming web2py version base on date release, 
like ubuntu.
e.g.
version 2.16.7.0
means python 2, release year, release month, release count (start from 
zero, in case there is any web2py version that release on the same month n 
same year)
because i can compare base on date modified or date on the file and 
download the web2py version that near with the date on the file

note for myself for better future :
create readme.txt that contain web2py version on it

not sure about backward compability on this case, but i know, a lot of 
changes was made in web2py during this 2 years. thanks so much to the 
active n kind community.

best regards,
stifan

[web2py] Self-contradiction in the book regarding migration?

[webmaster]

I'm trying to add a field to my DB in GAE (which is a huge headache for 
some reason?) and was taking a look at the book but noticed this 
self-contradicting statement regarding migrations:

The solution consists of disabling migrations for all tables and enabling 
fake migrations:

1

db.define_table(, migrate=True, fake_migrate=True)


Shouldn't it be "migrate=False, fake_migrate=True"?  Or is the introductory 
sentence wrong?

Re: [web2py] Re: Remove _extra from as_list()

[Anthony]

Got it. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way to prevent the "_extra" 
key from being added to each Row in this case, so .as_list() will end up 
including it. You'll either have to remove the "_extra" keys after calling 
.as_list(), or write your own function to convert the Rows to a list of 
dictionaries.

Feel free to submit a Github issue (to the PyDAL repo, not the web2py repo) 
suggesting that "with alias" fields not be added to the "_extra" dictionary 
(it appears to be unnecessary, as the alias is already added as a top level 
attribute of the Row object).

 The "_extra" dictionary stores values generated from expressions 
 (rather than raw values from individual fields). If you don't want them to 
 appear in the conversion of the Rows to a list of dictionaries, then don't 
 include them in the original .select() call that generated the Rows object.

Re: [web2py] Re: How active and 'professional' is web2py?

[joeg816]

I agree 100%.  The "powered by" part of the site has a bunch of sites of 
questionable quality and many of them are dead.   If this was better 
maintained and showcased some of the best examples, it would go a long way 
in giving people like me more confidence in using it for larger projects. 
 You can show web2py as an enterprise solution.  It needs a marquee name or 
two to take it to the next level.  Marketing. :)  

As far as Google and Youtube, I think Google DOES use Python for their 
sites but which web framework is used?

Hi,

I've been using Web2py for an ERP app for almost five years without any problems
(sorry, can't publish the code, once it would invalid its certification here in
Portugal).

I've also use it in other apps (support system, surveys) without any problems.
These ones I expect to publish as soon as possible (probably, during the holiday
s).

So I would say you should (at least) give it a good try ;-)

Also, the mailing list is very helpful to any question you may have.

Regards,

Carlos Correia

[web2py] treat url error

[Fabiano Almeida]

How to capture and treat the url before displaying error? For example, the
User entered the url with a controller that does not exist, and the
application takes the url points to an existing controller for any action
to be done.

Thanks,

Fabiano.

[web2py] Openshift + Bitbucket + git submodules

[Matheus Cardoso]

Hi,

Have anyone used a web2py app as a git submodule in Openshift? I used this 
repo  to deploy web2py to 
Openshift. Then I added my project into applications folder as a git 
submodule. However, Openshift tries to updates all submodules when I push 
modifications and fails, due to be unable to access my private repo without 
a password. If anyone already tried something like that, how give bitbucket 
credentials of my project to Openshift? 

Thanks.

Re: [web2py] Re: How active and 'professional' is web2py?

[Alex]

Realistically no one of us will ever build a website with as much traffic 
as youtube. If you have that much traffic you wouldn't use an interpreted 
language like Python. But for 99,99% of all website this doesn't matter 
anyways. The bottlenecks are usually I/O and the database.

I have a public website with many requests and it runs fine and very fast 
with web2py. Only thing I'm missing from web2py is Python 3 support, but 
this should be coming in the near future (or at least I hope so).

@devs: It would help if you could rework the "powered by" section 
at http://www.web2py.com/poweredby
First I couldn't enter my site, so it doesn't seem to work. Second it would 
be much better to structure this page, this list of randomly shuffled 
websites doesn't give much confidence. The websites are of mixed quality, 
some of them are not available anymore and you don't know if they are toy 
projects or really serious.

I'd recommend a section of maybe 5 really good websites you want to 
showcase (and keep this section up-to-date), with a little description of 
what the page does and maybe how it uses web2py.
Below you could list all other pages (e.g. in alphabetical order) just to 
show that there are many applications build with web2py.
