Re: [web2py] conditional update after form is submitted

[Simon Carr]

Thanks Batman,

That is what I was looking for. I thought I had seen it before, but could 
not find it again when searching the documentation.

Cheers
Simon

Hi Vasile,

Thanks for the reply, but that code seems to generate an error

if form.validate(request.vars):
TypeError: validate() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)


Here is my full function that I am trying to run if it helps

@auth.requires_login()   
def edit_chart():
record = db.section_charts(request.vars['scid'])
form = 
SQLFORM(db.section_charts,record,Fields=('title','description','width','position'),deletable=True,hidden=dict(oldposition=record.position))
if form.validate(request.vars):
if request.vars['oldposition'] != form.vars['position']:
sql = "update section_charts set position = position + 1 where 
position >= " + str(form.vars['position'])
db.executesql(sql)
if form.process().accepted:
response.flash = "Chart Updated"
redirect(URL('manage_dashboard'),client_side=True)
elif form.errors:
response.flash = "The forms has errors"
else:
response.flash = "Please complete the form"
return form

[Niphlod]

or use the onvalidation callback on form.process

form.process(onvalidation=yourfunction).accepted

[web2py] conditional update after form is submitted

[Simon Carr]

Hi,
I want to run some code after an update form is submitted but before the 
record in the database is updated. 

Where can I put the code so that I know the values in the form have passed 
validation before I run my code.

Thanks
Simon
