[web2py] Can 2 apps use 1 database ?
I currently have 2 apps which i would like to share one database.
one app is for authentication the other is the main app.
When I run the app1 it creates the auth tables along with another table
called *base_tags*
when I run app2 I get the following error. (the base_tags table in app1 is
referenced in app2 - same database).
*In App2*
type 'exceptions.KeyError' 'base_tags'
Traceback (most recent call last):

I am assuming that place_tags isn't seeing db.base_tags (no reference). May
be I don't understand DAL.
1. Isn't DAL an interface to the database?
2. If the database exist why wouldn't I be able to access it from another
app and reference tables that already exist?
3. Should I assume that unless *base_tags* was defined in app2 I cannot
access it?

Found this Was having trouble but i guess this --
https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=vq=cache:v2lgkygxA_cJ:www.packtpub.com/sites/default/files/5467OS-Chapter-3-Database-Abstraction-Layer.pdf+hl=enpid=blsrcid=ADGEESgEeuJ9YUV1Lwvy1CubPMg-92-ZM0Rtdvc14RQhuwGE32cSVmd-p35Tw21hW2R4PB9UcXbXLwTVrGRcthvusLvcdRDhnz8B2g-LsohKy64TyJcMX0yuCw5qiypnsPSxUyWHHoPTsig=AHIEtbQPUlFmojpWCTBBJKHdwdR34aZeuw
explained it. DRY is broken however, which isn't a good thing as the
database gets bigger.

[web2py] can CAS provider use a different database to apps?
I desire to have multiple apps. one of them will be a CAS provider My
questions are:
1. Can these app have different databases
i.e db = DAL('postgres://user:password@localhost:5432/cas',
migrate=True), db = DAL('postgres://user:password@localhost:5432/db1',
migrate=True), db = DAL('postgres://user:password@localhost:5432/db2',
migrate=True)
2. How do I access these database tables across applications?
i.e how can app1 access CAS database OR how can app2 database to access
app1 database
*Auth migration if disabled for all except CAS provider
[web2py] Re: can CAS provider use a different database to apps?
Additionally...
I currently have three apps, including CAS server
the case server app also contain other tables
db.define_table('base_tags',
Field('name', 'string', label='Tag', length=64,
required=True, notnull=True),
format='%(name)s'
)
and many more
some of these tables in the CAS server db model is accessed by the other
apps.
db.define_table('places_tags',
Field('place_id', db.places, label='Place', required=True,
notnull=True, writable=False, readable=False),
Field('tag_id', *db.base_tags*, label='Tag', required=True,
notnull=True, writable=False, readable=False)
)
I am getting this error:

Yes I understand CAS is for central auth, so i have let the cas provider be the app that takes care of login, registration, signup, what have you; as it should the tables are being created, so I am assuming that the other apps should be able to access the tables if they exist all in the same database.

Re: [web2py] Re: can CAS provider use a different database to apps?
Right viniciusban i agree. i don't want to perform joins across databases
explicitly i have never seen that in SQL
BUT I can use the user id from the CAS provider to refer to other tables in
a database
let's say the *CAS* provider has this table called *auth_user* with a field
called *id*.
let's say I have another app called *APP1* with a table called* user_exams*with
a field called
*user_id*
To make a relationship I can manually get the id from the auth_user table
(db.auth_user)
and then apply it to the user_exams.
the *CAS* provider contains this table
db.define_table('base_tags',
Field('name', 'string', label='Tag', length=64,
required=True, notnull=True),
format='%(name)s'
)
*APP1* contains a this table
db.define_table('places_tags',
Field('place_id', db_app1.places, label='Place',
required=True, notnull=True, writable=False, readable=False),
Field('tag_id', *db_cas.base_tags*, label='Tag',
required=True, notnull=True, writable=False, readable=False)
)
*Are you saying that Web2Py will not get id from base tags and make that
relationship?*

You cannot connect (join or make a relation) fields among different

[web2py] unsigned DAL integer
Is there a way to get unsigned DAL integers ? Is there a way to represent BIGINT using DAL? --

Thanks Anthony.

I don't think so. If you have created the table outside the DAL, perhaps
telling the DAL it's a regular integer field will still work, though.
Is there a way to represent BIGINT using DAL?
I'm not sure if this is in current stable, but in trunk, you can do:
Field('mybigint', 'bigint')
And to get the DAL to use bigint's for all ID fields, do:
DAL(..., bigint_id=True)

[web2py] Adding reference tables to auth
is there a way to add other tables to the current auth table setup ? I am aware of customizing existing tables but not adding tables to the database structure. e.g. Is it VALID to add other tables such at a country table and have auth_user reference this table without breaking web2py internals? How can this be done if possible? --

There are two flavors of the routing logic. The older and more general one is a regex-based pattern-matching router, and it has an example in routes.example.py. There's a newer parametric router that's much easier to configure, but not quite as general. It has an example in router.example.py. You want to pick which router to use, and copy its example file to routes.py. The name router.example.py is misleading in that respect, and there's been some discussion of changing the names, but it's embedded in a lot of documentation, so it has some inertia.
Re: [web2py] Re: Web2Py + OAuth2 Server
I am doing a bit on research on it and looking to wrap my head around it to build a server and client in Web2Py however, there isn't a lot of documentation and some implementations differ from other (I guess that is getting back to what Massimo said). Essentially, I will build a core system and have my apps built around that core (API Centric). I think that will be a little project to start in coming weeks. On Tuesday, May 29, 2012 9:16:44 AM UTC-4, mcm wrote: Yes it is definitely possible. OAuth2.0 was born because OAuth1.0 had all sort of hashing to do on both client and server side. That was to allow for better security, on a clear channel, but failed since OAuth1.0a is deprecated on non TSL channels. They really simplified things in OAuth2.0 so it is much easier to implement, but as Massimo points out the spec is still a bit rough and does just a little more than OpenID. Anyway OAuth2.0 is now adopted by Twitter, Linkedin, Google and Facebook (actually with some little differences, but nothing serious). This means that having OAuth2.0 service is now seen as an important feature. It is something on my TODO list so if you go ahead I can give you some support. mic 2012/5/29 Massimo Di Pierro massimo.dipie...@gmail.com: Theoretically yes. In fact I may even have somewhere a Oauth 1.0 server. The problem is that the Oauth 2.0 specs are very poor. They specify how a the client asks the server if a user is authenticated but do not say anything about what information the server should provide to the client (user name? email?). This means a client written for one server will only work with that server and vice versa. The facebook Oath 2.0 follows its own rules. You can build a client that works with it. You can build a server that mimics them but there is very little in the Oauth 2.0 spects that tells you how to. Moreover your app is unlikely to provide the same services as facebook and therefore clients written for facebook will not work for it. I would stay away from Oauth 2.0 unless you need it as a client to authenticate to third party services.

In the administrative section of your app there are the usual ACL tables. I realise there is a *acl_cas* table along with these tables. I am curious as to what this tables does?
