Hi all,
 there is a simple way to run DAL oustide web2py?
I need to write a script to access to the DB using the web2py model,
something like

db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite')
etc etc

Where can I find an example?

[web2py] Mercurial or Bazaar?

2010-03-23 Thread Giovanni Giorgi
hi all,
 I have seen there are two web2pty repositories: one based on mercurial
and one based on bazaar.
Which is the official one?

By the way, I have tried both revision control system...
I am sticking on mercurial because it seems more popular. I got a very bad
feeling with subversion, and I give it up in favor of the distributed
version control mantra; what are your... preferences?

:)

[web2py] [Interview] Where do you use web2py?

2010-03-12 Thread Giovanni Giorgi
Hi all,
 in the attempt to better knowing web2py and its community,
I'd like to write some entry on my blog (gioorgi.com).
I want to do a useful work for the community itself.

This day I'd like to focus myself on the question: for which projects do
you use web2py?

I have seen the master project open sourced in the last few days
posted by Asefa Debebe on 7th March (titled 'Relase of the first HL7 based
on web2py framework', demo at http://web2py.com/HLv3).

So, how you are using web2py?
For instance, do you prefer form-entry based application (data entry,
CRM,etc) or community based one (like CMS, Facebook clone etc)?

ciao ciao!

[web2py] Rendering one-to many as a select combo box?

2010-03-08 Thread Giovanni Giorgi
Hi all,
 I have a simple one-to many relation between two tables.
When I use the admin interface the foreign key
is rendered as a textbox.
I'd like to render it with a combo box (select tag).
There is a simple way to do it?
I have tried to use the widget property of the Field object, without much
success.
Can someone point me to an example?
This is the code and the last line is wrong (I get an error):


db.define_table('category',Field('name','string'))
db.define_table('note',
Field('description','string'),
Field('created_on','date'),
Field('category',db.category))
db.note.category.widget=SQLFORM.widgets.multiple.widget

[web2py] Introducing myself: Giovanni Giorgi

2010-03-07 Thread Giovanni Giorgi
Hi all,
 I am new to web2py, so I will introduce shortly myself.
My name is Giovanni Giorgi, I am a 35-years old Senior Consultant.
I live in Milan, in Italy.
I got a master degree on Information Technology on 2000,
I have worked as Software Architect for financial institutions (like
Unicredit Bank, DeutscheBank etc).
On my day-by-day work I use the Java Programming language, but I like a lot
explore different approaches.


I have used django python 0.9x for developing two web sites.
Anyway after leaving the project alone for a while, I find very difficult to
learn back the django framework.

So I am trying to use web2py for prototyping my ideas.
I have written two small blog entries:

http://gioorgi.com/2010/web2py-absolute-trouble-shooter/
http://gioorgi.com/2009/web2py/


The web2py approach is very promising in my own opinion, and I will keep
following  the mailing list in the future.

My free time is very limited but I will try to contribute to the web2py
community,
as I have done on other open source project like Squeak Smalltalk.
So, nice to meet you :)

Re: [web2py] Re: wordpress

2010-03-04 Thread Giovanni Giorgi
Hi,
 I am working on a first version and it is easy to code after you have
understood the css.
I will post to the list a first preview in the w.e.

 The nice thing about wordpress is that it is color neutral and it doed
 almost everything with CSS not images. They have a few images like
 this for example:

 http://s0.wp.com/wp-admin/images/gray-grad.png

 and they they have tabs like

 div id=someblock class=rounded closed
   div class=handlediv title=Click to toggle
 br/
   /div
h3 class=handlespanTitle/span/h3
div class=inside
   
/div
 /div

 all the effect logic for all someblocks can be handled by one very
 simple JS

 // start with all closed blocks
 jQuery(document).ready(function(){jQuery('.inside').hide();});
 // slide-toggle when clicking on the handles
 jQuery('handlediv, h3.handle').click(function()
 {jQuery(this).parent().child('inside').slideToggle();});

 the rounded corner are handled via CSS

 style
 .rounded {
   -moz-border-radius-bottomleft:6px;
   -moz-border-radius-bottomright:6px;
   -moz-border-radius-topleft:6px;
   -moz-border-radius-topright:6px;
   width: 80%;
   border: 1px solid #33;
 }
 h3 {
background:#DFDFDF url(images/gray-grad.png) repeat-x scroll left
 top;
text-shadow:0 1px 0 #FF;
width: 100%;
 }
 /style

 Notice that when the .inside is closed the H3 has 4 rounded corners.
 When the .inside is open the H3 has top rounded corners and and the
 border of .rounded someblock has bottom rounded corners too, which
 is a cool effect.

  It should be possible to apply the same logic to all admin views.

 There is not really much more than that except for the top menu (which
 web2py needs) and the left accordion menu (which web2py admin does not
 need).

 I am not saying this is easy. It takes time, understanding of CSS and
 an artistic eye.

I will start doing some tests on a demo app,
 then I will send it to you when ready.
I plan to work on it on the weekend.
Because Wordpress CSS is quite complex I will start with a prototype.
Ciao ciao :)

 You should be able to do this by just changing the views, css and
