Thanks a lot for the thorough explanation, I will keep that in mind for my 
future investigations.

Thanks for that. Bad google, and I thought he was my friend. :)

I rarely use it because it often returns too much result. But in this case, 
I surely should have. I'd have ruled out database encryption even if not 
understand fully its use purpose.

Actually I did, my first. But even in github, as far as I know, there is no 
way to know what work forkers are working on and monitor their progress, is 
there ?

[web2py] Re: where is pydal doc ?

[Lars]

"Good morning, Dave.." :)

Actually here I was looking for the decode_credential meaning, which I 
guess is for database encryption, but I would have like it better to have a 
description of its use, its handling (does it suffice to encrypt the 
database or do I need to encrypt the database myself and then, provide 
credentials to w2p to allow it to use it, etc..). For example, I didn't 
know what is connection pooling but looking at the doc in the book allow me 
to assess and decide if I need it or not, and at least to understand the 
basic function.

Furthermore, I understand that w2p is not fully compatible with python3, so 
I was ok to encounter some difficulties. But when I try to ascend in the 
code (I use pycharm), I find many functions with the same name with no doc 
explaining its purpose or parameters types. And as a far from experimented 
developer, I found it very difficult to sort out my own mistakes, from my 
computer's bugging attitude (yes it does.. sometimes) and the w2p faulty 
code if there is. Less now because I know that it can happen, but I spent a 
lot of time, some not so often times I know, trying to correct things in my 
code and in fact looking at the wrong place.

This is what led me to change to django, which at least, when I have an 
error : I am 99% sure that it is my fault (yes I heard you in the back... 
That you're pretty sure that it is the same with w2p :) ). And also, they 
have detailed tutorials, for each version of the software (which w2p 
doesn't need as it is 100% compatible between versions... Mostly).

That being said, after playing around with w2p, I can say that when I 
follow some dj tutorials, now I am able to say : oh ok they are doing that 
for this reason, this other thing for that other reason. Because I could 
play a lot with functioning applications in web2py, but I am afraid that 
the magic behind w2p still remains magic for me today. And there comes the 
philosophical question : is good coding better teaching than good 
documentation ? I think that we need both. I encounter django first and I 
didn't like it because I didn't understand the why behind the 
code/documentation (app code structure, relation between static and non 
static ressources/servers, their gluttonous appetite for external python 
tools, etc...). I then turned to web2py and understood the why. But now 
that I want to understand the how, I find deeper meaning in the django docs 
(I may be dumber than the average (yes you in the back, I heard that 
too...) but I just understood lately, for example, that it is better to 
freeze the software version in time to work an app).

As I'm still playing and haven't started my "super app" :) yet, I may be 
back to w2p later. All the more so as Massimo seems to want to develop a 
new soft which will behave more like django, fully compatible with python3. 
So I kind of taking some advance into the comprehension of this one. ;)

But I still humbly think documentation as the key to a better teaching and 
that the official website should unite it all : recent tutorials, detailed 
class api references and the book as a general insight of the software 
(even if some of you find some information redundant or self explaining, 
dumb newbies need redundancy and even useless explanations). I am even 
willing to help on the matter if you can find some use for my lack of 
competence. :D But for this too, there must be a place where all 
improvements are displayed in real time (maybe it is but I don't know 
where) : for example, I tried to translate a part of the book a few months 
ago, all for realise when I was finished that it was already done.

Thanks to all that are still awake.

Re: [web2py] where is pydal doc ?

Hi Kiran,

Yes it does... A bit. I couldn't find this in the source code, I really 
have a hard time to find my way through it.
Do you know by chance what is the decode_credentials parameter ?

Thanks a lot anyway. ;)

Hi,

I would like to use pydal but I can't seem to find the documentation 
(except from this one : http://pydal.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). But I 
didn't find (sorry if I missed it) anywhere explained the DAL constructor 
parameters for example.
Is there any ? And where please ?

[web2py] checkbox don't appear

[Lars]

Hi,

I want to display a form with the following code :

def display_line():
T = current.T
try:
return TR(
TD(id),
TD(file_name),
TD(file_size),
TD(file_type),
TD(INPUT(_type='submit', _name=T('Rename'), _value=T('Rename'
))),
TD(INPUT(_type='submit', _name=T('Delete'), _value=T('Delete'
))),
TD(INPUT(_type='submit', _name=T('Details'), _value=T('Details'
))),
TD(INPUT(_type='checkbox', _value=id))
)
except (AttributeError, KeyError):
return


def get_filesystem_form():
T = current.T
files_html = []

# get files list
file_list = files.load()

for _file in file_list:
files_html.append(display_line(_file))
return FORM(TABLE(*files_html), _width='100%')




And everything looks fine except that checkboxes don't appear.

Any idea ?

[web2py] logging

[Lars]

Hi,

I have this code in dlogging.py in the modules folder of my app :

import logging
import logging.handlers


def get_configured_logger(name):
global logger
logger = logging.getLogger(name)
if len(logger.handlers) == 0:
fh = logging.FileHandler(os.path.join('/'.join(os.path.realpath(
__file__).split('/')[:-3]),
 'logs/system.log'))
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s 
%(message)s')
fh.setFormatter(formatter)
logger.addHandler(fh)
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
return logger

logger = get_configured_logger('web2py.app.system')

I don't understand why it works in the shell but not from web2py from 
inside a module class. Could anybody figure why ?

Thanks

[web2py] Re: How do I change the sqlform button location

[Lars]

Hi,

For custom styles, you should use the web tools addons in firefox to get 
the chain of formattings : you click on the button you want to customize 
and you have all css styles matching it.

To change the disposition of the widgets (input, button, etc..), for a 
complete customization you should try custom forms as in : 
http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/07/forms-and-validators#Custom-forms

Best,

[web2py] rendering multiple components in ajax call

[Lars]

Hi,

Those are my first steps with ajax, so please indulge me.. :)

I have a list of divs describing objects. Id like to click on one div so 
that it sends the object id in an ajax call which would open a div at the 
top with the object description and a form to bid on it. I don't know how 
to send the id to a LOAD function and the poor result I got so far led to a 
already submitted form which give the validator error message (here a 
decimal in range).

So this is what I have so far :

db.py :
db.define_table('objects', Field('name'), Field('price'))
# demo data
db.objects.bulk_insert([dict(name='station', price=52), dict(name='desk', 
price=52), dict(name='glass', price=52), dict(name='beer', price=52)])

default.py
def index():
# get objects list
current_objects = db(db.objects).select().as_list()
return dict(current_objects=current_objects)


def object_desc():
oid = request.vars.oid

# get object description
object_desc = db(db.objects.id == oid).select()
name = object_desc[0].name
price = object_desc[0].price

object_desc = TABLE(TH('object Details', _colspan="2"),
TR('Name : ', TD(name, _colspan="3")),
TR('Price : ', TD(price, _colspan="3"))
)

form = SQLFORM(db.bid)
# form.vars.user_id = auth.user.id
#
# if form.accepts(request, formname=None):
# return DIV("Message posted")
# elif form.errors:
# return TABLE(*[TR(k, v) for k, v in form.errors.items()])

return dict(oid=oid, object_desc=object_desc)


index.html
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
{{n = 0}}







{{=T('Name')}}
{{=T('Price')}}


{{for object_ in current_objects:}}
{{n += 1}}

{{=object_['name']}}
{{=object_['price']}}

{{pass}}



Enter code here...
Thanks

[web2py] Re: xml() error when BEAUTIFY globals()

[Lars]

I went for something even simpler : I bypass BEAUTIFUL.. I just wanted a 
view with everything named :
def my_beautify(component):
t = TABLE()
if isinstance(component, dict):
for k, v in component.iteritems():
if v is None or isinstance(v, (bool, str)):
t.append(TR([str(k), str(v), ' ']))
else:
t.append(TR([str(k), repr(v), str(dir(v))]))
return t

Thanks to both of you ! :)

[web2py] xml() error when BEAUTIFY globals()

[Lars]

Hi,

Everything is in the title : I try to have a BEAUTIFY look at 
copy.copy(globals()) and I get an xml error line 131 in html.py :

data is empty for : return data.xml()

Why can't we beautify globals() ?

Thank you

Re: [web2py] global name DIV not defined

[Lars]

I don't now about before (I don't have much experience) but the book 
specifies not to pass current at module level, only in functions. 
Thanks for the hint anyway. :)

Re: [web2py] global name DIV not defined

[Lars]

Actually it comes from T, the issue remains even with no xml() or XML 
involved.

Sorry but I reduced the function to the wrong line : I had a T = current.T 
at the beginning of get_dashboard() which
deletion didn't suppress the issue.

It seems that an involuntary (my bad) spelling of the returned string 
(message='Lorat ..') created multiple versions of the message in LANG.py 
which then create a bad dictionary that contains different possible 
translations for the same item in uwsgi cache.

Rewrite (sanitize) lang.py by hand and restart uwsgi does the trick.

Thank you

[web2py] global name DIV not defined

[Lars]

Hi,

I have this small code in the dashboard module:

from gluon.html import DIV
def get_dashboard():
return DIV(
DIV('Lorat ipsum etc', _class='dashboard alert'),
_class='center-box').xml()

and this one in default.py :

def index():
from modelling.dashboard import get_dashboard
dashboard = get_dashboard()
return dict(message=message, dashboard=dashboard



And I noticed that if I refresh the page to quickly sometimes I have the 
error :
global name DIV is not defined

or some other, the css is not defined ?

Could anybody figure why ? And how to avoid this ?

Thank you,

[web2py] Re: what are hooks - modelless ?

[Lars]

I'm going for the module approach, I find that easier to organize. 
Actually I did define some tables like you suggested but I thought maybe 
his way was a more pythonic or proper one.

Thanks for your answer.

But what exactly is his complaint? Would it have hurt for him to
actually, you know, explain?

Re: [web2py] Why web2py? and not django?

[Lars Hansson]

Yeah, but if everyone sits around waiting for the champion to appear
there won't be one. Someone has to take the plunge.
