[web2py] Deploying Web2py App on Bluehost
I have Python, Web2py and various database technologies installed on an Linux server (say 123.45.67.89). Assuming I've configured my application, databases, and folder permissions properly, is deploying my Web2py application as simple as launching Web2py (the command on my machine would be python web2py.py in /dir1$), setting the server IP to 'public 0.0.0.0', and visiting 123.45.67.89? How does what I'm describing differ from what the following does (from Linux / Unix section of http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/34/13/deployment-recipes): wget http://web2py.googlecode.com/hg/scripts/setup-web2py-ubuntu.sh chmod +x setup-web2py-ubuntu.sh sudo ./setup-web2py-ubuntu.sh I don't have a lot of experience deploying applications or working with Apache, so I don't really understand the differences between what I'm doing and the deployment recipe, nor do I really understand what's being described in the *Apache or mod_wsgi setup* sections. Furthermore, when I attempt to run the code above I just receive a bunch of errors (no sudoers, files / directories don't exist, etc). Thanks so much for the help. Just want to make sure I know what's going on, the limitations / differences, etc., especially given the fact that rapid deployment isn't working for me. If you have any decent references that you could point me to, I'd be glad to read them as well. Not sure if it helps, but I'm attempting to deploy on Bluehost with a dedicated IP. Deploying a Django app was a piece of cake on Bluehost, so I hope I'm close. -- 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] Re: Why does appadmin have css overflow: hidden in database results?
Yes but with overflow:visible (the default css setting) there are no scroll bars and if the table has enough columns than the browser will show a horizontal scrollbar anyway as part of the browser window (as opposed to with auto showing the scrollbars as part of the div). With auto It just gives the feeling of html frames which I thought most people agree are annoying except in limited circumstances. For me it just seems like overflow: auto is just an annoyance with no benefit, but I was wondering if there was something I was overlooking.

[web2py] Re: Why does appadmin have css overflow: hidden in database results?
Yes agree I did modify my own appadmin copy but I guess don't see why anyone would want the overflow auto in this context. I understand it's for aesthetic but from my POV it's appadmin so this is not end users using it. My thinking was that if I'm annoyed by it others would be too and we should change the default as one drop in the bucket of making web2py better. On Monday, April 14, 2014 9:16:34 AM UTC-4, Paolo Caruccio wrote: Now I see your POV. You are speaking about browser's scrollbars and not about div content area scrollbars. The overflow:auto setting has been applied to the container div of the result table for aestethic reasons because such div should have a width of 80% but there is a bug in the code. I will send a patch on web2py issue tracker. Anyway, if you are not confortable with overflow:auto and since appadmin is a part of w2p application you can easily customize it by replacing the line 68 in /views/appadmin.html with a simple div.

[web2py] meta.description = None?
Sometimes I want to completely remove the meta description tag (as this is one of the recommended options according to Google: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4gr88oHb-k) For example I have a default meta description tag defined in menu.py (as is in the welcome app). Then in a specific controller function I'd like to remove that meta description tag so I try: response.meta.description = None However instead of completely removing the meta tag from the rendered html this produces: meta name=description content=None / which seems kind of pointless. So three things: 1. What is a workaround to remove the meta description tag from a controller? 2. What changing web2py so when response.meta.description = None, there is no meta tag output? 3. What about completely removing the response.meta.description from the welcome app, since according to Google, duplicate meta description tags are a bad thing and having no tag is better than having a duplicate tag? -- 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.

That works and I have done that but it still doesn't address that setting description to None prints out the string None. That behavior doesn't seem correct to me.

What about completely removing the response.meta.description from the welcome app, since according to Google, duplicate meta description tags are a bad thing and having no tag is better than having a duplicate tag? -- 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] Understanding translation and accept-language header?
I made a bare bones app based on the welcome app:
In db.py:
T.current_languages = ['en']
in en-us.py:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
{
'!langcode!': 'en-us',
'!langname!': 'English (American)',
'xyztest': 'Pass! (US English)'
}
in en-gb.py:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
{
'!langcode!': 'en-gb',
'!langname!': 'English (British)',
'xyztest': 'Pass! (UK)'
}
In a view:
h2Language testing:/h2
string: strong{{=T('xyztest')}}/strongbr
current_languages: {{=T.current_languages}}br
T.http_accept_language: {{=T.http_accept_language}}br
T.accepted_language: {{=T.accepted_language}}br
The rendered output of this is:
string: *xyztest*
T.current_languages: ['en']
T.http_accept_language: en-us,en;q=0.5
T.accepted_language: en-us
Why does this not get translated? By contrast, if I set my browser accept
language to include en-gb the rendered output is:
string:* Pass! (UK)*
T.current_languages: ['en']
T.http_accept_language: en-gb,en-us;q=0.7,en;q=0.3
T.accepted_language: en-gb

[web2py] Re: Date display i18n internationalization?
Sorry I'm not following the relevance of that forum topic. What I'm trying
to do for example is:
I have a date in javascript in a view :
var dateFormat = {{=T('dd mmm ')}})
Later on this will get expanded to for example 20 January 2014. For the
US, I want the date displayed as January 20, 2014. So I created a
en-us.py language file with the following content:
{
'!langcode!': 'en-us',
'!langname!': 'English (United States)',
'dd mmm ':'mmm dd, '
}
I restarted web2py. However with my browser Accept-Language set to en-us I
still see the date as 20 January 2014. My full firefox header is:
Accept-Language en-us,en;q=0.5
What am I missing about how T works?

This in layout.html. Viewing the rendered source in the browser the output
is
var dateFormat = dd mmm ;
Putting T.force('en-us') at the end of models/models.py didn't not change
anything.
In fact, to take javascript out of the picture I just put a simple T
statement in the footer of my layout.html:
{{=T('this-is-a-test')}}
And added an entry for it in en-us.py
{
'!langcode!': 'en-us',
'!langname!': 'English (United States)',
'dd mmm ':'mmm dd, ',
'this-is-a-test': 'PASS'

[web2py] Re: Version Control advice
I also agree with separate repositories per app. My web2py folder is a mercurial repository (I cloned the web2py repository http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/checkout) Then for each application I want to make, I create a new repository for that application in the web2py/applications folder. So you end up with a nested repository structure but they actually play nicely and don't interfere with each other (thanks to the ignore files) This way I can update web2py as needed to get new versions or bug fixes.

[web2py] Re: How can I show response.flash messages with different styles?
I like this, but will it play nicely with built-in flash messages? Seems
like if you get a web2py built in flash message (e.g. logged in,logged
out) it will come out with no styling since the styling is now in the
function rather than the layout? Although there aren't so many built-in
messages that you couldn't override them so probably not that big of an
issue.

[web2py] Recording failed login attempts in database via login_onfail?
I want to record the number of failed login attempts in db.auth_user. I've
added an extra field:
auth.settings.extra_fields['auth_user'] = [
Field('failed_login_attempts','integer', default=0),
My thought was to capture increment this number in login_onfail. However,
how can I find out which user failed the login from this function handler?
As far as I can see it doesn't take the login form as an argument like
onaccept. Or if that is not possible where in the chain of events can I
increment this count on a failed login?

It works, just looking for best practices. Curious if anyone had anything
really slick. Not too crazy about adding on the fly attribute to response
object, but perhaps a slightly more mangled name would make me more
comfortable with that (Although chance of collision seems pretty small and
if it were to happen would be easy enough to change)

[web2py] Re: possible bug with IS_TIME() midnight in 12 hour format?
Thanks, also seems like there should be the following test cases

rtn = IS_TIME()('12:00 am')
self.assertEqual(rtn, (datetime.time(0, 0), None))

self.assertEqual(rtn, (datetime.time(0, 1), None))
rtn = IS_TIME()('12:00 pm')

[web2py] Re: web2py scheduler
You could try adding standard python logging statements to try to figure
out what's happening.
Edit web2py-root/logging.conf and add an entry for your app following the
instructions in the file. Then in scheduler.py:
import logging
def your_scheduled_function():
logger = logging.getLogger('web2py.app.your_app')
logger.debug('BEGIN: your_scheduled_function')
...
Then check web2py-root/logs folder for the log output

[web2py] request.is_local not working?
I'm using web2py on webfaction and as far as I can tell request.is_local is
not working. I have a page that uses the generic.html view which has the
following lines:
{{if request.is_local:}}
{{=response.toolbar()}}
{{pass}}
The web2py book says:
request.is_local: True if the client is localhost, False otherwise. Should
work behind a proxy if the proxy supports http_x_forwarded_for.
Yet it still shows the toolbar when viewing my hosted site. Using the
toolbar I can see that HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR is set to my personal computer
ip address. Any ideas why this doesn't work?

[web2py] Re: Pattern-based Application-Specific URL rewrite basic example?
Happy to say this is now working. One thing I was wondering is if the
application specific url rewriting could route at the root level or not
(e.g. route www.example.com/someapp/default/contat to
www.example.com/contact) or if it was limited to having an app prefix (e.g.
only route www.example.com/someapp/default/contact to
www.example.com/someapp/contact). Well I can confirm that it does not need
an app prefix.
Here's what I put in web2py-root/routes.py assuming my app's name is
someapp:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# default_application, default_controller, default_function
# are used when the respective element is missing from the
# (possibly rewritten) incoming URL
#
default_application = 'someapp'# ordinarily set in base routes.py
default_controller = 'default' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
default_function = 'index' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
# routes_app is a tuple of tuples. The first item in each is a regexp that
will
# be used to match the incoming request URL. The second item in the tuple is
# an applicationname. This mechanism allows you to specify the use of an
# app-specific routes.py. This entry is meaningful only in the base
routes.py.
#
# Example: support welcome, admin, app and myapp, with myapp the default:
routes_app = ((r'/(?Pappwelcome|admin|app|someapp)\b.*', r'\gapp'),
(r'(.*)', r'someapp'),
(r'/?(.*)', r'someapp'))
other than that I left routes_in and routes_out alone.
Then in my web2py-root/applications/someapp/routes.py I put:
default_controller = 'default' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
default_function = 'index' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
BASE = '' # optonal prefix for incoming URLs
routes_in = (
('/(?Pfunctionabout|contact)', r'/someapp/default/\gfunction'),
# remove the BASE prefix
(BASE + '/$anything', '/$anything'),
)
routes_out = (
(r'/$app/default/index', '/'),
(r'/$app/default/$anything', '/$anything'),
# restore the BASE prefix
('/$anything', BASE + '/$anything'),
)
routes_onerror = [
(r'*/*', r'/someapp/default/handle_error')
]
Not yet sure if the BASE stuff is necessary. Also can confirm error
routing works in the app specific routes.py with no error routes specified
in the main routing file.
Note when I tried using the $app variable in routes_in as shown below it
seemed to give a Rocket error
routes_in = (
('/(?Pfunctionabout|contact)', r'/$app/default/\gfunction'),
# remove the BASE prefix
(BASE + '/$anything', '/$anything'),
)
I prefer the app specific routing because it makes it easy to version
control your app's routes with your app's repository.

For a basic example of routing www.example.com/someapp/default/contact to
www.example.com/contact what needs to go in the web2py-root/routes.py
and what needs to go in the web2py-root/applications/someapp/routes.py?
If I'm using application specific routing does this mean I should leave
routes_in and routes_out completely alone in web2py-root/routes.py?
Also for specifying errors, do I use routes_onerror in
web2py-root/routes.py or web2py-root/applications/someapp/routes.py?

[web2py] How to change password Too short message?
When registering a new user using the default Auth forms, if the password entered is too short, an error message Too short is displayed. I would like to change this message to something more meaningful such as Password must be at least x characters 1. How do I do this? 2. Shouldn't the default message be something like this? Seems not user friendly to just say password Too short with no indication to the user how long a password should be. Are they just supposed to keep entering passwords until they hit whatever arbitrary password length we have set?

[web2py] Re: RFC: validator IS_NOT_IN_SET

[web2py] Re: Does migration from a 'string' field to a 'list:string' field preserve data?
I just tested this with a simple app using postgresql database and it seems that it doesn't quite work. It appears it will leave the string data that exists in the string field alone in the database, however web2py will interpret it such that the first and last character are truncated. For example: hello - ell something - omthin world - orl As soon as you add another list item to the string, then web2py will truncate the original string's first and last characters in the database in addition to adding the new item. Migration back from list:string to string will preserve whatever list:string data is there (in the web2py representation format). hello, world - |hello|world| one, two - |one|two| Would it make sense for the migration process to handle this more gracefully?

I wouldn't call it a bug. It's somewhat of an odd use case. Using
IS_IN_SET with multiple=False gives you a non-multiple SELECT widget. Such
a widget can have only a single option selected, so the web2py SELECT
helper checks to see if the current value of the field is the same as any
of the OPTION values. Because the current value of the list:string field is
a list (and not an individual string), it will not match the value of any
option values.
Instead, you can just switch to a string field, and if you ever need to
migrate, just wrap each string in pipe characters (i.e., |thestring|).
Another option is to create a custom widget:
Field('myfield', 'list:string', requires=IS_IN_SET(...), widget=mywidget)
Finally, you can do:
Field('myfield', 'list:string', requires=IS_IN_SET(..., multiple=(1, 1)),
comment='Please select only one.')
The above will show a multiple select box instead of a single-select
drop-down, but it will require the user to select exactly one option (will
return an error message otherwise).

Re: [web2py] Re: Debugging with the scheduler
For future reference just adding the fact that you can open a web2py shell and call your scheduler tasks directly in order to debug them. This wasn't obvious to me but is much easier than trying to run the scheduler and debug it via logging statements. For example: python web2py.py -M -S your_app_name and then call a function from your scheduler.py file which will just be a global function (that is, just type the function name at the shell prompt). Inside your function you can set a pdb break point and debug to your heart's content. scheduler.py: def myfunction(): import pdb; pdb.set_trace() ...

[web2py] Re: Scheduler: Error retrieving status?
I created a bare bones app and the scheduler seems to work without error. Not really sure what's happening with the problem app but if I had to guess I'm thinking it might be related to using db._common_fields.append(standard_fields) where standard_fields is a table with fields such as date_created, created_by, modified_by etc. which in turn has defaults like auth.user_id. Unexpected by me, these got appended to the scheduler tables. Maybe there is some problematic interaction with this. I'm going to try explicitly adding standard_fields to my app tables rather than using db._common_fields.append to see if that fixes it.

Ok that appears to have been the problem. Getting rid of db._common_fields.append(standard_fields) fixed it.

I have the same problem as the original poster. I am only storing a single value as of now but I'm using list:string instead of string so that if I change my mind to allow multiple values it will be easier to transition. Is this a bug that it won't preselect the selected value? Alternatively, does migration from a string field to a list:string field preserve the string data?

[web2py] Re: Virtual field for latitude and longitude from geometry field?
Didn't realize you could make a second query in a Virtual field but makes
sense now that I see it. Although I'd rather not make the extra query (2
actually since longitude would need to do the same thing) so I guess I will
just add latitude and longitude directly to my original select instead of
trying to make them Virtual fields. e.g.
db(db.location.id0).select(db.location.ALL, db.location.point.st_x(), db.
location.point.st_y())

can I achieve a similar result in web2py?

[web2py] Re: Spatial/GIS: find records within X distance of point?
Thanks, on line 2987 I believe the format string is missing the 3rd '%s'
parameter:
return 'ST_DWithin(%s,%s)' %(self.expand(first),
self.expand(second, first.type),
self.expand(third, 'double'))
Should be:

[web2py] Re: Spatial/GIS: find records within X distance of point?
This appears to be working correctly now thank you. One more thing: the
docstring on line 2985 is referencing the wrong PostGIS function
(ST_Within), it should be:
http://postgis.org/docs/ST_DWithin.html
(note the D)

[web2py] Re: Updating auth.user extra_fields?
So am I correct in that in order to update the page size I would need to
both update the database and also update the variable in the current
session?
That is, the following is necessary:
db(db.auth_user.id == auth.user.id).update(pagesize=100)
auth.user.pagesize = 100

it will update the database.

[web2py] Re: Updating auth.user extra_fields?
This topic seems to discuss a similar issue:
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/web2py/_DDXJL7fwLk/discussion
The answer seems to be yes you have to manually update the version in
session as well as the database if you want the information to be
synchronized. Using an after_update hook was discussed as a possible
workaround.
