[web2py] Scaling + performance tips to prepare for launch
Hi folks, I'm about to launch my site (http://nizen.net) and before launching i would like some scaling tips. Right now i've done the following: - using cloudflare for CDN. - compiled web2py .py - .pyc - in 0.py session.forget(response) - settings.migrate = False I'm using openshift also. If i try to reach the big sites (engadget, reddit, etc) i fear it may get the site broken. Any (other) tips ? -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py-users group.

[web2py] In openshift: Need help on why my web2py website is being constantly accessed by openshift itself
Hi folks, So in openshift in a python 2.6 cartridge + haproxy i'm having lots of accesses from openshift ip itself, like one every 3 seconds. I do not have any cron jobs. Is there a way to figure where these access are coming from : wsgi, web2py, openshift ? -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py-users group.

[web2py] Can somebody hack a user tracker and download counter for us ?
I was wondering if somebody could hack a web2py slice that wraps the A(_href) and adds the clicks to a db, also for downloads, for each session it could track the user actions and create a behavior/path from it. It would be great for everybody. This slice could be a nice base http://www.web2pyslices.com/slice/show/1358/a-simple-page-statistics-model -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py-users group.

[web2py] Cannot submit SQLFORM :/
Hi Folks,
So I cannot submit SQLFORM, even the simpler ones like the following. I
always get the else: that says please fill the form
I checked and it seems the code is alright and i can submit forms and add
content using the badmin plugin, so i'm kind of lost here.
And another question, how can we pre-populate the upload field with
request.vars ?
in models.py
db.define_table('t_asd',
Field('id','id'),
Field('f_app',type='string', default='abc',label=T('Parent
App'),comment=T('The application or addon that will load this.'))
)
in controller.py
@auth.requires_login()
def register_addon3():
form = SQLFORM(db.t_asd)
if form.process().accepted:
print(Addon added, waiting for moderator approval to show on the
addon store.)
response.flash = 'Addon added, waiting for moderator approval to
show on the addon store.'
elif form.errors:
print(form has errors.)
response.flash = 'form has errors'
else:
print(please fill the form.)
response.flash = 'please fill the form'
return dict(form=form)

[web2py] Just knew about Server-Sent Events and want to share it with you
Stream Updates with Server-Sent Events: Are like websockets but unidirectional, from the server to the client. Most modern browsers support it. It can be combined with XmlHttpRequest / ajax if the client needs to send events to the server, i.e. emulate websockets. From https://github.com/rwldrn/jquery.eventsource: Q. why use EventSource rather than Websockets? A. EventSource is easier to setup on server (uses http), lighter and most of the times - that's what you acually need. (via temp01) Other resources: Discussions: http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/eventsource/basics/ http://www.prodigyproductionsllc.com/articles/programming/javascript/avoid-using-eventsource-server-sent-events/ A JS library: https://github.com/Yaffle/EventSource Implemetation on python2/3: https://github.com/niwibe/sse.git DJango implementation: https://github.com/niwibe/django-sse.git --
[web2py] Dotcloud now with support for websockets is += 1 service ?
Hi folks, I recently read about websockets and saw a video by Bruno Rocha showing the use of comet and web2py and it seems like a technology with lots of potential. What i would like to know is that if it is possible to replace comet with some server side service provided by dotcloud, so that web2py + postgres/mongo + websockets == 2 services instead of 3, and therefore keep prototyping apps right there on the free dotcloud account. http://techcrunch.com/2012/03/27/open-paas-dotcloud-adds-support-for-websockets-vertical-scaling-and-more/ http://blog.dotcloud.com Thanks in advance.
[web2py] accessing to static folder via .load is broken
Hello all,
So i was trying my local site and i saw some broken images that are loaded
via the following code
img src={{=URL(r=request,c='static',f='images/product.png')}} alt=bb
width=296 height=400 /
This is inside a .load file that loads inside a DIV.
and produces the following URL which does not exist:
http://192.168.0.106/init/static/images.load/product.png
The .load suffix should not be there, unless the /static directory is
no longer an exception controller.
This used to work fine like one month ago, some patch must have broken it.
Could anybody fix that error or explain what if there is a new convention
for static files.
Thanks in advance.

[web2py] Re: In plugin_wiki meta-code tables i cannot upload data :(
Guys,
could any of you at least try uploading stuff to a plugin-wiki meta-code
created database.
Just to tell me that it's just my configuration that's broken ( i tried
firefox and chromium linux ) or it's the plugin.

[web2py] bare login using a sha1 or md5 signature instead of plain text pass
I'm doing a C++ framework and i want to remotely login into web2py, for simplification libcurl style. Problem is that the bare login requires plain text or just base64 encoded password transmission, in short it is vulnerable to a man in the middle attack that may compromise the user passwords. So what i want to achieve is to login into web2py in a method similar to what pandora uses, that is something like: l: login p: hash of (l+p) What would be the patch required to allow this kind of login into web2py ? I'm guessing adding an extra sha1 password Field in auth table, some onPassword_creation onPassword_modification, and the registration events.
[web2py] how to download file from within a cid target
I'm trying to generate a pdf with the bundled pdf generator (fypdf)
from withing a .load file that is loaded into a div.
Outside the cid div (i.e. extension .html) the download works fine
but from within the .load, the contents get rendered into the cid
target, never downloading to the user.
How can i download a generated file from within a cid ?
print request.function+request.extension:,
request.function+.+request.extension
response.headers['Content-Type']='application/pdf'
#tmp_pdf = f.render('invoice.pdf', dest='S')
attachment = 'attachment;filename=invoice.pdf'
response.headers['Content-Disposition'] = attachment
response.extension ='pdf'
#response.cid =''
#response.ajax = False
content = f.render('invoice.pdf', dest='S')
return f.render('invoice.pdf', dest='S')#response.stream(content)
Another similar problem is blog headlines that are generated from a
feedburner javascript within a .load / cid and never render, while
they render perfectly outside (.html). Maybe these two problems are
linked.
