Re: [web2py] Re: Demo/dev server
By any chance would you know how that part is accomplished - starting the web server (Rocket) from the gui control, then the framework? I understand the answer ultimately is going to be "read the code", but right now I'm not sure I'd know where to start looking.

[web2py] General workflow questions... virtualenv, git, etc.
So... attempting (again) to dabble in web2py. I've been thru a few tutorials on other frameworks (bottle, Flask, Django), and now a few things (function decorators, etc.) in the web2py manual make more sense now. Yay! Anyway, on to the question(s) at hand. I'm probably getting *way* ahead of myself here... but I am curious... most tutorials on other platforms focus almost as much on setting up and using virtualenvs and git as they do on using the framework in question. Given the way web2py is laid out (to my admittedly limited understanding), is there really a point to having multiple virtualenvs with multiple installs of web2py, each for one project / application, or would it make more sense to just have one main virtualenv containing a web2py install, and manage each individual application directory separately with git. In case it matters, I'm mainly referring to what you'd recommend for a newbie working on their own small projects. If you use a different work flow or layout for larger scale or web2py development work, I'd still be interested in hearing how you do things!

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py and python3
So in case I missed it earlier in the discussion... *is there* a timetable (or even a beginning) for moving web2py to web3py, etc. or not? I found it kind of interesting that on the web2py site it touts the educational origins of web2py, but in posts above python 3 was dismissed as being only used in schools (which I highly doubt, but whatever). Backwards compatibility is great and all... but I think y'all might be taking it a bit too far. An LTS version might be a better idea.

[web2py] Excluding the controller name from the url
So... if I want to do something really simple, like not have my url show the controller name (default)... which routes do I modifiy? The one in web2py-root or the one in my_app? From looking at the manual and the comments in router.example.py and routes.example.py, I thought it looks as if I should put this in web2py-root/routes.py: routers = dict( BASE = dict(default_application='my_app'), ) but I still get http://127.0.0.1:8000/my_app/default/index in the url. If I specfically enter http://127.0.0.1:8000/myapp in the browser bar that works... but if I click on the 'Home' menu entry in the nav bar (which is supposed to map to the 'index' function in the 'default' controller') I end up with the controller name in the url again. Not sure whether I'm supposed to be modifying the my_app/routes.py instead, or if I need to specify other parameters in routes.py like 'default_controller', etc.? -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py-users group.

Dang... I'd looked at that section of the manual, and I'd compared my code
with the example from the text I'm working out of and I would have sworn
that it was identical and correct. Heck, it took me a few passes to pick
up what was missing even in your example. Guess that happens when you keep
staring at the same thing too long - you start seeing things that *aren't*

response.menu menu is a list of 3-tuples or 4-tuples. The three elements

Yes, its considered almost standard to do a blog or wiki as an example, and perhaps serves a purpose as a point of comparison between competing products/projects.

[web2py] web2py manual vs. screen size/res?
What size/res screen is the web2py manual supposed to display on, without having to scroll side-to-side to see everything? I'm using FF 18.01, and IE 8 (no choice on the latter), and whether @ 1024x768 or 1152x864, regular fonts, large fonts, etc. the web2py manual still takes up *everything* plus some, requiring a couple inches worth of scrolling side to side even with the browser window maximized. Looks like the center section is fixed width... is that really necessary? --
[web2py] Re: web2py manual vs. screen size/res?
Well, I'm pretty fuzzy on a lot of this stuff... is there something I can check to provide feedback, etc. for you?

[web2py] Re: web2py manual vs. screen size/res?
So you're saying that it is normal and correct for the page to need to be scrolled left and right to see everything even with the window maximized? Or should some portion of the page resize itself according to the available space?

[web2py] 'Killer Web Development' tutorial site
Is there anyone actively maintaining this site? Just wondering, as there is no easily located contact information or link, and the comments for various pages are obviously not screened or reviewed in any manner - lots of spam gibberish, etc. After noticing the comments were mostly fluff, I didn't really read them... but given the 'content' and links in some of them I could see them getting a person in trouble at the work place. Normally I'm not the type to be called 'overly sensitive'... but if the main web2py site is going to like to this 'Killer Web Development' as a tutorial, maybe it should be cleaned up a bit? No real need for random comments scattered around on pages of a tutorial. Just my $0.02 worth... Monte --

Ack. Well that would explain why it only caused a problem in the one
spot!
Thanks for the assistance!

As Alan suggests, you slightly mis-copied the code from the book -- it
should be:
@auth.requires_login()

Could someone explain to me why that one line, right there, would cause

There are any number of things I don't fully understand yet, but most of

I want to read the book And read the code without indentation is almost impossible... If my book is correct, it is almost useless. Packt Publishing has an on-going issue in this regard... I'd purchased a couple books from them directly - fairly readable in PDF format, but pretty much useless in Kindle format. I noticed a number of folks over on Amazon who had purchased thru them, where you only get the .mobi format - and are effectively screwed - had the same problem. Having purchased mine directly thru Packt, I could at least read it in PDF format. If you look at any of their books for Python related subjects in Kindle/.mobi format, they are all screwed up. I hounded the CS people about it - took them a long dang time to even respond. They finally offered two other ebooks of my choice as compensation. One of the ones I chose was this web2py cookbook - even with the release date slipping a couple months, and knowing full well it would probably be unusable on a Kindle. Oh, and if you look... I don't think I've ever seen any of their books showing *any* errata listed... To be honest, I was rather surprised to see the Web2Py project working with these folks... I'd hoped maybe a change had occurred and things would be better, but opening the pdf and finding two typos in the first couple pages of the intro cured that idea. Monte
[web2py] Stalling out early on... blank page in 'MyApp'
Hello all, Getting started with the tutorial in the docs... edited default.py as directed and things worked as expected. Edited default/index.html to include the bare html tags as shown in the tutorial... and nothing. On reloading I get just a blank browser window for a view. After spending some time fussing with it, I deleted the web2py directory (on Windows XP Professional, running from a folder on a USB stick) and unpacked the downloaded zip file again. Started over from scratch, but hit the same problem again at the same point, looks the same whether using IE7 or FF9. What am I missing here? Thanks, Monte

[web2py] New to web2py
Hello all, New guy here... I've been looking all over the web for something that meets all the needs of a couple projects I want to do, and it looks like web2py will just about cover them! I'm getting my feet wet with the examples, and got sidetracked ;) by the gae sql designer - holy cow that thing is sweet, not too complicated, just right! I was noticing that it seems to use the old DAL language of 'SQLField' instead of 'Field' for the table definitions... is there an update or change in the works for that? Also... maybe my understanding of foreign keys as used in web2py (or at least the gae sql designer) is not up to snuff... it seems like this: dbOBJECT.tbl_phone_numbers.id_tbl_members.requires=IS_IN_DB(dbOBJECT, 'tbl_members.id','tbl_members.title','tbl_members.first_name', 'tbl_members.mid_init','tbl_members.last_name','tbl_members.suffix', 'tbl_members.street1','tbl_members.street2','tbl_members.city','tbl_members.state', 'tbl_members.post_code','tbl_members.country','tbl_members.gender','tbl_members.nra_id') should be just: dbOBJECT.tbl_phone_numbers.id_tbl_members.requires=IS_IN_DB(dbOBJECT,'tbl_members.id') since I'm just wanting to tie those two fields together, not the one field to the whole other table... yes/no/maybe? TIA, Monte
