[web2py] websocket_send() on db insert

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

is there a way to execute some script anytime there's a db insert (either 
from a form or by manual insert query, or any db query for that matter)? 
and by script, i'd want to use websocket_send to send some messages anytime 
something goes in or out of the db with regards to some specific tables.

isn't that what cascade does?

[web2py] Cron-like job

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

I want to do something but I doubt cron is the right thing to attempt, I'm 
not even sure what I'm supposed to do except that it's going to be a 
scheduled task and it may or may not be solved by cron, I need some 
guidance.

I want to simulate a bank. users get to 'save' some (virtual) money in the 
'bank', and every hour (in real time, periodically from the time of 
'saving') they earn some percentage of their saved money.

for instance, every hour, 
balance = db(db.bank.account_id == 
auth.user.bank_account_id).select().first().balance
db(db.bank.account_id == 
auth.user.bank_account_id).update(balance=balance+(0.0001*balance))
or something like that.

how do i do this?

[web2py] Re: Multiple file download

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

I managed to get it working. I looked up the download method in the 
Response class and apparently it's looking for a table name and field in 
the file name. I added that structure [table.field.] to my zipped file name 
[table.field.zipfile_name.zip] and passed it to the download as an argument 
in URL() and now it works. it zips the file, saves it, then downloads it, 
Now the next thing I want to do is delete the saved zip file from inside my 
app once it has been downloaded.

[web2py] Re: Using ajax to call a function that uses LOAD, not working

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

Thanks a lot. Will definitely take your advice. I always tell myself I will 
do all that change when the app is complete and I don't have more code to 
write then I'll rearrange everything, especially with the 'style' bit cos 
i'm just in a hurry to code-on-the-fly and see immediate change, but I 
never actually get to that point to make the changes.

Seeing as I need help and it's rather difficult to get the help because 
other devs can't understand easily what I've already done, it's just best 
that I do the change now and might as well just do the right thing while 
I'm at it. Thanks.

I was doing it the wrong way i think, but i did a workaround. I used the A 
helper to place a button on the page and when it's clicked it replaces 
itself with the form at statusform.load with ajax=True, and it works just 
fine

I'm using ajax to call the function *load_home* and load_home is supposed 
to return a form using LOAD with ajax=True. The normal home function in the 
controller returns form using LOAD with ajax=True and that works just fine. 
But now I'm also using websocket_messaging.py to load parts of the page for 
navigation without whole page reloads, chats, etc. I'm trying to use the 
same mechanism to reload the home page when the "Home" link is clicked.

The problem here is that when I use ajax=False in the load_home function
form = LOAD(c='default

[web2py] Developer network

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

Hello,
I'm wondering if there's a social media platform for app developers?
I want to build one as an open source project using web2py... any thoughts, 
ideas, something to look on to start with?

Thanks Leonel
Somehow that worked! But I have no idea why it worked... seeing as you 
suggested it, can you explain to me please?
Thanks again though.

[web2py] unknown error on production server! I need help fixing it asap ['NoneType' object is not callable]

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

I have an app on a live server which part of my school uses. Somehow it 
spits out this error when I tried to login tonight.
Before it happened, I logged in to my vps.net account and went to the 
console page, I saw a button there "Ctrl+Alt+Del". I don't know what it is 
but as I do with most things, I decided to press it to see what happens, 
there was an alert if i was sure I wanted to click that button, I hit yes 
and then I notice the app won't load in the browser so I started the server 
again from a shell using putty. The app homepage came up right after the 
restart but that's when I encountered this problem... I tried to login but 
I get this error each time now. It's not pointing to my code so I'm a 
little bit lost as to where to start fixing it

[web2py] vps.net ubuntu script installation for web2py doesn't appear to work

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

I just watched the vimeo video made by Massimo some time back and used it 
as a guide to get web2py running on a node I just acquired at vps.net. Once 
everything was done, I tried to go to the ip but all I get is the default 
apache server page.

It works!

This is the default web page for this server.

The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

How do I get it to work?

[web2py] Python and Web2py course

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

Next semester, I'll be a 3rd year student in my university. My plans for 
next semester include me organizing some sort of classes (and a web2py 
club) for students to learn web application development with web2py. Any 
ideas what I should be teaching or how I should go about it? I haven't done 
something like this before but I really want to teach people how to write 
web applications seeing as I get a huge load of requests everyday...

[web2py] emailing a pdf view as an attachment

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

I have a form, and i display the details entered in the form on .pdf views 
page. Is it possible to use web2py to email that generated pdf page to 
someone? what I want to achieve is to allow users to fill the form and then 
click a button to send the pdf containing the entered details without 
downloading the pdf and re-uploading it... it's about the best solution 
I've come up with so far but that's not what I want to achieve. It'll be 
too much hustle for users (even I wouldn't want to do that)

[web2py] Re: Bootstrap is really killing web2py

So... I'm not really sure what this whole conversation is about, as to 
whether it's an issue of web2py coming with bs2 by default or some 
difficulty in implementing bs3. I use bs3 just fine in my web2py apps and 
really haven't had any issues..

I just think that since there's that concept of decorators and the fact 
that there's quite a number of them and functions they perform, it'd be 
good to have them all listed somewhere with (at the very least) their 
definitions and maybe some examples on how to use them. (instead of being

[web2py] Alternative IDEs?

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

Are there any alternative IDEs for web2py?
I'm in search of an IDE for web2py that can help me find methods and 
variables easily. for example autocomplete options to choose from after 
using a dot operator? the default browser ide lacks quite a number of 
things in making programming easy. Web2py in itself I believe makes 
developing applications really really easy, but I believe writing the code 
should be just as easy the development process itself... if you get what I 
mean.

[web2py] Annotations

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

Is there a place in the documentation or somewhere on the web that lists 
all the annotations/decorators in web2py and explains how to use them? like 
@auth.requires_login, etc.

[web2py] Table column/cell width not specified, unable to continue

I'm trying to render a list of all first names in my auth_user table in a

[web2py] Web2py Hosting

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

I've been looking around for python hosting websites that I can get my 
web2py deployed on but none of them is easy to work with. I'd rather prefer 
the ease to work on my application than having the headache of getting 
online, which really should be easy to do. I tried the solution given me in 
this 
thread 
for 
dreamhost deployment. it worked for sometime and then passenger just broke 
without me even doing anything. I got off the hosting service now and I'm 
searching for a new place. PythonAnywhere is good, but I can't get my 
application at a domain i want unless I have www in front of it by force... 
I learned web2py.com is hosted on PythonAnywhere, and I'd like to know how 
that works, having web2py.com working without necessarily having the www in 
front of it? or if there's a better solution

Found the problem staring at me, had to slap myself after finding it...

I just did a minimal ajax process and it doesn't work! the onkeyup demo in

few places in my application where onchange also triggers an ajax function

[web2py] Re: is the web2py.js Ajax functionality broken?

I tried that... no luck. I think it's because there's multiple answers and 
all of them have the form input with name="aid", can't distinguish which 
request.vars.aid to send... different answers would have different amounts 
of likes... there's a for-loop statement above the form and each form has 
the same name... if i distinguish the name to be name="aid{{=answer.id}}", 
how do I get the value in the controller? request.vars.aid?

[web2py] Re: Custom login form error

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

So do I return response.flash or I return session.flash?

[web2py] Custom login form error

['sasogeek' via web2py-users]

I have a custom login form that displays the error when the email is 
invalid (eg. like someone submits an email with a wrong email format, i.e, 
without @domain.com for example), but when an email that's not in the 
database is submitted, nothing happens, the page just reloads.

Also, if an email that's in the database is submitted with a wrong 
password, the page just reloads... it's not recorded in login.errors (my 
custom form.errors)
here's all the code relating to the login form. (I've tried both 
crud.settings.hideerror=True and crud.settings.hideerror=False, doesn't 
work) --Remember though that login.errors returns invalid email when the 
email format is wrong.

Model (db.py)
db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite')
response.generic_patterns = ['*'] if request.is_local else []
auth = Auth(db, hmac_key=Auth.get_or_create_key())
crud = Crud(db)
crud.settings.hideerror=False
...
...
...
db.define_table(
auth.settings.table_user_name,
Field('full_name', length=128, default=''),
Field('email', length=128, default='', unique=True),
Field('password', 'password', length=512,
  readable=False, label='Password'),
Field('registration_key', length=512,
  writable=False, readable=False, default=''),
Field('reset_password_key', length=512,
  writable=False, readable=False, default=''),
Field('registration_id', length=512,
  writable=False, readable=False, default=''),
  format="%(full_name)s")

custom_auth_table = db[auth.settings.table_user_name] # get the 
custom_auth_table
custom_auth_table.full_name.requires = 
IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message=auth.messages.is_empty)
custom_auth_table.password.requires =  [CRYPT()]
custom_auth_table.email.requires = [
  IS_EMAIL(error_message='Invalid Email'),
  IS_NOT_IN_DB(db, custom_auth_table.email)]


Controller (default.py)
def home():
login = auth.login(next="index")
register = auth.register(next="tos")
return dict(login=login, register=register)


View (default/home.html)
...

{{pass}}
...
...



{{=login.custom.begin}}

Email: {{=login.custom.widget.email}}


Password: {{=login.custom.widget.password}}


{{=login.custom.submit}}

{{=login.custom.end}}



...

 Error Logging In





{{if login.errors:}}
{{=login.errors}}
{{pass}}

   
   




...


How do I detect the incorrect password error and also the email not in 
database error? the ...email.requires=IS_NOT_IN_DB I believe allows my 
register form to work so that people can sign up. login also works 
perfectly if all the details are correct. I just need to fix this error 
issue. already searched similar topics but i'm not making any headway...
