Apologize everyone, and Niphlod, I forgot to restart my browser, and now the 2 values are consistent .. my bad for the disturbance.

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
Hi Niphlod,
def index():
# when people first login, they will get their timezone set.
tz = fast_tz_detector()
print
print 'Hi, you should save this returned by request.vars',
request.vars # if you debug, uncomment this line, and make sure return
tz=tz below
print "plugin_timezone_tz == ", session.plugin_timezone_tz
if session.plugin_timezone_tz:
if db.userinfo[auth.user_id] == None: # check first time login
db.userinfo.insert(detected_timezone=session.plugin_timezone_tz,
id=auth.user_id) #insert record
else:
db.userinfo[auth.user_id]=dict(detected_timezone=session.plugin_timezone_tz)
#update record
print " called index & after db udpate = ",
db.userinfo[auth.user_id].detected_timezone
Hi, you should save this returned by request.vars
plugin_timezone_tz == America/New_York
called index & after db udpate = America/New_York
My machine is set to 'Australia/Darwan' now. request.vars is working fine.
Is there a reason why session.plugin_timezone_tz always return
"America/New_York"? No matter how I changed my timezone of the client, i
didn't see session.plugin_timezone_tz got updated.
After this, my timezone problem should go away :-)
thanks for your help.

Niphlod,
Thank you for pointing this out. I have some serious learning ahead. Thank you
for being patient with my questions.
I am good with your approach below. The first suggestion works out for me, and
my time zone issue is resolved.
Thank you!

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
fast_tz_detector returns a SCRIPT().
Of course you can't "read it" because the page executes it, so it's fine if
you see a blank space:
If you see the page source (using firefox, right click --> View page
source) you'd see a blablablabla
On the "let's save it to the database" topic . try it yourself:
def index():
print 'Hi, you should save this ', request.vars
some_message = "here timezone is detected"
tz = fast_tz_detector()
return
When you return a "fast_tz_detector()", as soon as the browser loads the
page, javascript detects the timezone and it is sent back to the same
controller function (in this case, "index").
Another way is to "hack it up" somewhere
def index():
if session.plugin_timezone_tz:
db.sometable.insert(
detected_timezone=session.plugin_timezone_tz, user_id=auth.user_id)
some_message = "here timezone is detected"
tz = fast_tz_detector()
return .

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
hi Niphlod,
I've tried your example in the attachment. The good news is that the user
selected timezone it the profile/register page is working consistently!
Great work! Thank you!
The bad news is that the dynamic detection, and return from the client
session is still not working...
def index():
some_message = "here timezone is detected"
tz = fast_tz_detector()
I found out that tz is still not returning anything in the index page. That
should be my landing page, and once this is detected. I want to move this
value to the db. Then use it for the rest of the other functions in the
application.
I am reading your plugin, and it will take me some time to really figure
out what is going on inside fast_tz_detector()... Not sure why it didn't
return the thing I want :-)

It's storing in the database as UTC and displaying as "localized" to
the users.
Are we sure that you fully grasped what the timezone implementation on
the IS_DATE* validators in web2py and that that idea fits with your one ?

Sorry Niphlod. I was on my phone, and didn't see this attachment. Thanks
again for helping me out without asking for anything. I will try to learn
from your example.

Btw, I want to say that Niphlod has been very helpful. I am definitely missing
the HTML+JS knowledge, but that didn't stop me to try out in web2py and have a
good attempt on this issue.
I am one little step away from solving this time zone problem haunting me for a
few months. I wouldn't have the courage to start this adventure without seeing
the community's effort here.
Thanks Niphlod, and everyone to create and support this.

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
yes. I am with you. I didn't store timezone in the db, and will be using
UTC for all input to the db too.
I hope to find a way to use the detected timezone to use in the .represent
method for the sqlform.grid.
db.prototype.modified_on.represent = lambda value, row :
pytz.UTC.localize(value).astimezone(pytz.timezone('Asia/Tokyo'))
The above is working for me. I basically hardcode it to 'Asia/Tokyo'. I am
trying to get the value from your plugin to replace my hard coded one above.

the whole point of timezone normalization is NOT having "a timezone

It's storing in the database as UTC and displaying as "localized" to the
users.
Are we sure that you fully grasped what the timezone implementation on the
IS_DATE* validators in web2py and that that idea fits with your one ?

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
ok.
There was an error in your code, a double call to process() .
But there was also on my end: when you do in the same function that shows
the form a fast_tz_detector(), basically you trigger a POST request that
"updates" the formkey associated with the form.
Blame on me that use LOAD() all the times.
In order to avoid intricacies of CSRF (that you can definitely circumvent
by hand, but it's not recommended if you don't understand all the
implications), it's better either to check for the timezone earlier in the
process.
Actually the module is in use in a site of mine, where a default "landing
page" is hit by every user before having the possibility to fill a form ...
also, it's not useful to check for the user timezone everytime he loads a
page ^_^.
Even so, if you want to detect the timezone in the same page where there is
the form, your "safest" resort would be to include a LOADed component that
triggers the timezone detection.
Summary: here's the code to accomplish timezone detection in the form
def mytzdetector(): #just does timezone detection
fast_tz = fast_tz_detector()
return dict(fast_tz=fast_tz)
def test():
if not session.plugin_timezone_tz: #if it's already set, skip detection
fast_tz = LOAD('default', 'mytzdetector.load', ajax=True) #load
with ajax
else:
fast_tz = None
form = SQLFORM(db.sometable)
if form.process().accepted:
response.flash = 'form accepted'
elif form.errors:
response.flash = 'form has errors'
else:
response.flash = 'please fill out the form'
return dict(form=form, fast_tz=fast_tz)

Hi Niphlod,
As always, thanks for your help.
I do not think I got an explicit error this time. However, the input is not
taken. When I clicked submit, the page blink and showed me a blank "Add" page.

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
I'll try that again verbatim in a few hours (as soon as I get my hands on a
pc with python ^_^) and report back.
PS: what error does the form return ?

Redownload the plugin from github.
PS: That will work ok if a user landed on the "detect_timezone"
pageif you need to autodetect in the same page as the form, you should
be able to do
def test():
fast_tz = fast_tz_detector()
form = yourform .
.
return dict(form=form, fast_tz=fast_tz)
all in one shot (given that you use the generic template nothing has to
be done, if you use your own you need to include somewhere {{=fast_tz}} in
it)

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
Hi Niplod,
It still behaves similarly.
1) fast_tz returns None,
2) the "submit" button to the db was not taken, and the still ask me to
fill out the form again.
This is my updated controller.
def test():
fast_tz = fast_tz_detector()
#create a new appt
form = SQLFORM(db.sometable).process()
if form.process().accepted:
response.flash = 'form accepted'
elif form.errors:
response.flash = 'form has errors'
else:
response.flash = 'please fill out the form'
return dict(form=form, fast_tz=fast_tz)

Re: [web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
Hi Niphlod,
I need to trouble you again for your guidance.
I've successfully copied the files. I've added a new application tz_test to
test the plugin.
This is my controller and there are some other scaffolding coded not
included.
import pytz
from plugin_timezone import fast_tz_detector
def detect_timezone():
tz = fast_tz_detector()
return dict(tz=tz)
def test():
detect_timezone()
zone = session.plugin_timezone_tz
form = SQLFORM.grid(db.sometable)
return dict(form=form)
This is my model.
=
db = DAL("sqlite://storage.sqlite")
import pytz
user_timezone = session.plugin_timezone_tz or 'UTC'
db.define_table('sometable',
Field('appointment', 'datetime',
requires=IS_DATETIME(timezone=pytz.timezone(user_timezone))
)
)
I called the below page to create a new row in the table.
http://127.0.0.1:8000/tz_test/default/test/new/sometable?_signature=84a55b727259cb27cb2c2234966da9d9b0cd7dfd#
I was given a form to fill, and select a date. Then the form rejected me.
Do you have any suggestion on how i may resolve this?
Appreciate your help to provide some insights..
Thanks
Wayne

[web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
yep, github downloads a zip that holds a folder that holds the content - archive.zip - w2p_timezone_plugin-master - modules - static What you need to do is copy the modules and static folders "on top" of your applications one. e.g. if your app is at /path/to/web2py/application/yourappname/ you should copy modules and static under that folder (which has already a "static" and a "modules" folder). Don't worry, within each of them there is a folder plugin_timezone that "holds" the plugin content completely separate from your app, so no file overwrites will be done. > >> -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.

[web2py] Re: Return value from javascript to controller
Hi Niphlod, This will be some learning. Thanks for pointing it out. I am really a newbie here. I've tried to "upload" your plugin to my application. It's a zip file that i download from Github. It's doesn't allow me to do the upload, and said my app does not exist or i don't have enough permission. I've then tried to download another layout plugin to try out. That "Keep it Simple" layout does work. It's a .w2p. I am wondering what i need to do to use your plugin. I read that the zip file has a couple folders. Should I uncompress it and simply copy them over? Github is a new thing to me. Maybe I used the wrong way or got the wrong file. regards, Wayne Niphlod於 2013年4月15日星期一UTC+8下午11時03分38秒寫道： > > PS: as the source code of the plugin was updated, now you'd have to watch > for this line instead > > > https://github.com/niphlod/w2p_timezone_plugin/blob/master/modules/plugin_timezone/__init__.py#L138 > > basically it's an ajax POST. > > -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
