[web2py] Re: Check to see if a field is in another table in a computed field
At our facility we order a lot of unique items but also have an inventory of some items. I am trying to add some logic that when ordering an item, there is a check to see if the ordered item name is in the inventory (inventory.name). Then person ordering is made aware that a similar item is in inventory and maybe we need to pull that item out of inventory versus ordering that part if it is indeed the correct part, size, color etc...

[web2py] list:string type issues
Hi Guys, I am using a list:string to store a list of lists. Each seperate list has 4 values, qty (int), name (string), description (text) and price(double). Stores nicely and looks fine in the db table eg. [1, 'OS 7030', 'OS 7030', 755.0], [3, 'SMT 24 Btn', 'SMT IP Phone', 360.0], [1, 'SMT IP', 'SMT IP Phone Licence', 70.0], [1, '2830 SIP Router', '2830', 499.0], [1, 'ADSL Central Filter ', 'ADSL Central Filter ', 61.5] However if I try to iterate and get some totals it is getting confused. For example the same list above becomes... [[1, 'OS 7030', 'OS 7030', 755.0], [3, 'SMT 24 Btn', 'SMT IP Phone', 360.0], [1, 'SMT IP', 'SMT IP Phone Licence', 70.0], [1, '2830 SIP Router', '2830', 499.0], [1, 'ADSL Central Filter ', 'ADSL Central Filter ', 61.5]] Iterating list[0] returns [ [ [ [ [ list[1] returns 1 3 1 1 1 list[2] , , , , , list[3] returns a list of the spaces, list[4] the apostrophes ' ' ' ' ' list[5] O S S 2 A etc etc...

Re: [web2py] Re: type 'exceptions.RuntimeError' File.../databases/c8b....sales.table appears corrupted
Fixed Thankfully... 1) Renamed the table in the model 2) Uploaded the backup csv file to the renamed table... was about a week out of date 3) Manually deleted the corrupt file from the database 4) Created a new table with the old table name without fields and set migrate and fake_migrate to true 5) Deleted this model and renamed the model holding the backup files back to its original name... and (quite miraculously) everything appeared as it was immediately before the crash...

[web2py] Web2py Mobile Interface
Hi Everyone, I decided that it would be advantageous if i were able to code on the go to fix any issues that I see occurring in my hosted webapps. So I installed web2py on my android tablet. The process was relatively painless and the standard welcome app works perfectly... however when I attempted to install my packed app there was no way that I could see to do this. I did see a git pull option however when atempting to use that it promply told me that I needed the gitpython module... (which I think is currently considered experimental?) before I go down that track is there any way to install a packed app, that I have missed?

Sorry I should have given you all the data... The db table is a simple one # HISTORY db.define_table('notes', Field('business', 'reference calls', writable=False ), Field('note', 'text', label='Add Note' ), auth.signature, format='%(business)s' ) The controller is as above... note.load is simply {{=response.toolbar()}} h4Notes:/h4 {{for note in notes:}} div class=note On {{=note.created_on}} {{=note.created_by.first_name}} says blockquote class=note_body{{=note.note}}/blockquote /div {{pass}} load is only called in a couple of views at the moment until I get this sorted out... for example in leads.html (the one in the screenshot) {{extend 'layout.html'}} {{=form}} {{pass}} {{block right_sidebar}} {{=LOAD('default','note.load',ajax=True)}} {{end}} On Friday, 25 April 2014 02:03:22 UTC+10, Niphlod wrote: how are you using LOAD to load the component ?

[web2py] SQLFORM.factory and jQueryUI effects
Hi everyone, I am using a bunch of jQuery hide effects based on the example code in the book... (Chapter 11... Conditional fields in forms) which work great with my SQLFORM. However when I change the controller to use SQLFORM.factory so that I can post to two tables (based on Chapter 7... One form for multiple tables) the effects stop working. Can someone suggest a workaround or a code change so that they will work together? The Controller... @auth.requires_login() def appointments(): call_id = request.get_vars.id db.appointments.business.default=call_id db.notes.business.default=call_id form = SQLFORM.factory(db.appointments, db.notes) if form.process().accepted: id = db.appointments.insert(**db.appointments._filter_fields(form.vars)) form.vars.appointments=id id = db.notes.insert(**db.notes._filter_fields(form.vars)) session.flash = 'Success' redirect(URL('calls')) elif form.errors: response.flash = 'Form has errors' else: response.flash = 'Enter Data' return dict(form=form) and the View... {{extend 'layout.html'}} {{=form}} script jQuery(document).ready(function(){ if(jQuery('#appointments_unit').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_unit_type__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_unit_number__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_unit_type__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_unit_number__row').hide(); jQuery('#appointments_unit').change(function(){ if(jQuery('#appointments_unit').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_unit_type__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_unit_number__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_unit_type__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_unit_number__row').hide(); }); if(jQuery('#appointments_level_floor').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_level_type__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_level_number__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_level_type__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_level_number__row').hide(); jQuery('#appointments_level_floor').change(function(){ if(jQuery('#appointments_level_floor').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_level_type__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_level_number__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_level_type__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_level_number__row').hide(); }); if(jQuery('#appointments_building').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_building_number__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_building_name__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_building_number__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_building_name__row').hide(); jQuery('#appointments_building').change(function(){ if(jQuery('#appointments_building').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_building_number__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_building_name__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_building_number__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_building_name__row').hide(); }); if(jQuery('#appointments_lot').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_lot_section__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_lot_section__row').hide(); jQuery('#appointments_lot').change(function(){ if(jQuery('#appointments_lot').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_lot_section__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_lot_section__row').hide(); }); if(jQuery('#appointments_cross_street').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_street_number__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_name__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_type__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_suffix__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_street_number__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_name__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_type__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_suffix__row').hide(); jQuery('#appointments_cross_street').change(function(){ if(jQuery('#appointments_cross_street').prop('checked')) jQuery('#appointments_street_number__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_name__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_type__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_suffix__row').show(); else jQuery('#appointments_street_number__row').show(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_name__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_type__row').hide(), jQuery('#appointments_cross_suffix__row').hide(); });
[web2py] Re: SQLFORM.factory and jQueryUI effects
Hey Niphlod, Thanks for that answer... you are spot on in seeing the problem... my #appointments_blah id's did get changed to #no_table_blah hence the jQuery was targeting id's that no longer existed... To fix it I simply changed the hard coded script at this point to target #no_table_unit, #no_table_unit, #no_table_unit, #no_table_unit etc... which is very ugly :( I can use input names to hide the data fields as you suggested above which is preferred but how would I hide the labels? They do not have a name property... I could not work out how to use the form = SQLFORM.factory(Field() ., table_name='appointments') suggestion in this instance... I get it if I am using a normal instance of SQLFORM.factory... but in this case where i am referencing and updating two tables i cannot seem to get the syntax right...

[web2py] Masking User Input
Hi everyone, Building a series of telemarketing and sales forms for a friends company to use. Looking to utilise an input mask such as the one mentioned in this post. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/web2py/form$20input$20mask$20jquery/web2py/zRt9whk6y68/3jqiiRII9QYJ and wanted to check if there were any potential issues. Particularly in relation to Niphlod's comment in that post. Is there any important reason that the jquery plugin mentioned could not be used? I am not looking for it to validate data (I use a regex to do that) but it is far preferable to guide the user to input correct data in the first place and a format mask is an aesthetically pleasing way to do this. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py-users group.

[web2py] Crud Permissions
I want to have two auth_groups: administrator who will have complete CRUD access to all tables, and editor who will have complete CRUD access to a limited set of tables. I can give administrator access without even setting up permissions by doing the following: @auth.requires_membership(administrator) def data(): return dict(form=crud()) Supposedly crud() will automatically detect permissions if you name them the right way. Assume I created a permission like this in appadmin: Group ID: editor (2) Name: create Object or table name: person Record ID: 0 If I'm logged in as a user in the editor group and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/testapp/default/data/create/person I get a Not authorized ACCESS DENIED message. Should I be setting up my auth_permission differently, or maybe use another decorator? Thanks is advance for any help.

+1 on this. It's in our 2 year plan for a major client. On Feb 16, 6:48 am, TheSweetlink yanosh...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, I have been using OrientDB and web2py quite successfully for some months now. While there are many great projects and efforts to combine these powerful programs, I do not know of the current status of the web2py --- OrientDB adapter. Bulbflow is a great project too but I could not use it due to OrientDB specific features that I needed for my project. Neo4j has had great progress as well. I ultimately chose OrientDB for several reasons which made it the best fit for my projects. Here are some of those highlights: 1) multi-master (as far as I know you must pay for commercial license to get multi-master in Neo4j) 2) the Apache 2.0 license is very liberal. 3) Luca and the OrientDB community are as turbo fast and helpful as the web2py community. Luca can get patches out in hours to days, not months to years. 4) SQL syntax + Gremlin graph traversal language = untold power to grow/analyze your graph dbs. 5) Much more...for details see orienttechnologies.com and click Learn More. Do read the entire wiki as there is good documentation and more coming frequently. As for getting OrientDB to work with web2py, I have had to write custom modules to do basic CRUD and used OrientDB's built-in console to create my schema/maintain the DB. I've experienced great success with using requests and ujson python libs to move data back and forth from web2py -- OrientDB For Auth I still use a db which will work with web2py's amazing DAL. I'm sure with enough time you could hack the two to work together but I prefer to use something proven for auth until such time OrientDB is included in the DAL. Massimo has expressed interest in including OrientDB within the DAL but I would assume that this will take quite some time as he has much higher priorities for web2py to get to first. I highly recommend the combination of web2py and OrientDB. It will take some customization, but once running you will be able to do things that web2py + traditional RDBMS simply cannot do. Some of my apps have experienced 10-100x performance boost due to no longer using JOINS to get data but rather traversing my graph.

The latest scripts/autoroutes.py defaults to using the config string in the file (see line 35) if it's not empty (in preference to routes.conf). That defaults to the example app: config = ''' 127.0.0.1 /examples/default domain1.com /app1/default domain2.com /app2/default domain3.com /app3/defcon3 ''' ...which looks like the web2py site. So either put your config in that string, or make that string empty, and it'll use route.conf. (Note: the reason that the config string isn't empty is that it drives the doctest.)

[web2py:17230] Distribution with PIL
Web2Py is fantastic for packaging your application into a trial version that can just be downloaded, unpacked and run - without dependencies. No other framework I'm aware of can do this. The one snag is PIL. The applications I write usually require an imaging library. I know that PIL is not pure python, and requires a compile step because of the C code. But I have also been able to find binary distributions for the platforms I've worked on - OS/X and Windows. I would think there is also a Linux binary distribution available. But, no problem there -- PIL has been available on the Linux platforms I've deployed on (like webfaction). If I'm reading the PIL license correctly on pythonware.com, it can be distributed. So, are there any technical difficulties or licensing reasons why a PIL binaries should not be included in a distribution?

I intentionally left it open as to whether I was talking about a web2py distribution or an application package or an application package with web2py included :) I would like to see it in web2py, but if not, I would probably try to bundle it myself. If I'm not mistaken python does bundle cpickle, but cpickle is just a fast clone of pickle. I think there is no python only version of PIL. Anyway, Web2Py has different priorities than Python. IMHO, I would be a great benefit to web2py to have PIL included if it could be done with good success rate - not even 100%. Maybe it could initially be included as an experimental capability or something. --greg-- On Mar 1, 10:52 am, mdipierro mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu wrote: I agree with you that PIL is very useful. The issue is we need to draw a line somewhere. Lots of people need additional packages and we cannot include them all. After all, why is PIL not included in Python? If we were to include PIL in web2py we would have to take care of updates and binaries and we would have to guarantee backward compatibility of a third party package. Things will become un- manageble fast. This is not a straight NO. This is a NO for now and a call for comments.

No other framework I'm aware of can do this. The one snag is PIL. The applications I write usually require an imaging library. I know that PIL is not pure python, and requires a compile step because of the C code. But I have also been able to find binary distributions for the platforms I've worked on - OS/X and Windows. I would think there is also a Linux binary distribution available. But, no problem there -- PIL has been available on the Linux platforms I've deployed on (like webfaction). If I'm reading the PIL license correctly on pythonware.com, it can be distributed. So, are there any technical difficulties or licensing reasons why a PIL binaries should not be included in a distribution?

[web2py:17275] Re: Distribution with PIL
This might work smoothly for pure python modules, but When I tried to easy_install PIL on my mac, -- I think I remember correctly -- it failed to build because xcode was not available. When I installed xcode, it still would not build. So I tried a ports package and that did not work. I finally found a pre-compiled binary. This whole area of builds and such is hazy to me - it was a struggle for me to get it working. I found lots of others who had the same problem. But maybe that was because they were just as unfamiliar with the territory as I was. I admit I don't fully understand this -- but if easy_install depends on the right compilers being available for non-pure-python packages, then the easy_install solution might be iffy at best. --greg-- On Mar 1, 5:22 pm, mdipierro mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu wrote: I think what we really need is package easy_install with web2py.

You've made some very good points. Would the following make sense? Use the wiki for the initial gathering of doc pages, then after the first sphinx-based documentation is produced, just clean the wiki of those pages. After that, just use the wiki for contributed recipes and other pages, some of which are selectively migrated to sphinx. Keep the changes due to new releases in sphinx only. Just asking. --greg-- On Feb 27, 6:53 am, chris p chrispri...@gmail.com wrote: I've been mostly lurking, but would like to offer a few comments... reST to HTML is very straightforward, the docutils pacage has an rst2Html script to do exactly that (and it is just a few lines of code). Sphinx, as Yarko has pointed out, is a tool chain using reST that adds better facilities for large, multi-section documents in reST. I think reST (and Sphinx) would be a great choice for documentation. Sphinx is pretty new, but I have used reST for a lot of in-house doc and it is a very useable and maintainable markup language. As for combining a wiki with reST, moinmoin and Trac have done this: http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/HelpOnParsers/ReStructuredText http://bitten.edgewall.org/wiki/WikiRestructuredText so it would certainly be possible to integrate with a web2py-based wiki. The only think I would say to keep in mind is this: wikis and structured (not reStructured) documentation are quite different in intent, workflow delivery, and although you can make the argument that wiki pages would just become sections of the documentation the reality is that this would take effort to keep the wiki itself quite structured (not their natural state). I'm in favor of a wiki with reST as its markup language. And I am in favor of using reST/Sphinx for documentation. I'm not convinced (based on having done several doc wiki projects) that combining the two is ideal. I think if you treat the documentation as a built deliverable with reST source files, and handle contributions, revisions, etc through source control. This makes it dead-simple to couple doc revisions with the web2py source itself, something that is otherwise complicated if you try to build doc with a live-wiki. I've not gone through every one, but I think you'd find most if not all of the projects inhttp://sphinx.pocoo.org/examples.htmltake this approach. Having a wiki is still good it's great for code recipes and quick doc on new features, news, areas that are rapidly changing, etc. But I think having a dedicated set of sources for the documentation would result in a better organized, more coherent set of final docs. And the wiki can stil have links to HTML pages generated from the doc source. I have yet to really see a project with wiki-based documentation that did not seem somewhat scattered. chris --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py Web Framework group.

Documentation organized by a wiki often becomes jumbled and disorganized. However, a wiki is a good place to start, especially to get multiple contributors.
