[web2py] Use of scheduler in place of cron

I have a function that I want to run every 30 minutes. I would ordinarily expect to use cron but see that the Web2py book encourages using the scheduler. But after reviewing the docs several times, I have no idea how to make this work. Thanks for any help. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - h

Looks like the new datatables.net v1.10 has a new API so there are now probably better ways to do this than I showed. On Monday, June 23, 2014 4:51:53 AM UTC-5, Tomeu Roig wrote: > > Thanks Brian > > El lunes, 23 de junio de 2014 03:56:32 UTC+2, Brian M escribió: >> >> Tomeu, >> >> At the moment

I did what you suggested but the calls to: db.owner.own_end_date.writable = False # not writable db.owner.own_end_date.readable = False # do not show is at all! are effective only if executed before the call to form = SQLFORM.smartgrid(db.owner, ... When executed after, have no effect. I want to

[web2py] /default/user/login not honoring "_next" anymore?

In the current head branch in github (Version 2.9.5-trunk+timestamp.2014.06.19.17.16.40), it seems that the /default/user/login form does not use the "_next" variable specified in the URL. For example, The myapp/default/view is decorated with @auth.requires_login(), so when I am not logged in

[web2py] Re: web2py and self-submission/postbacks - a newcomer asks

It would probably help if you show some code, or at least explain in more detail an example where self submission is not possible or overly difficult. Note, your code can always distinguish between a form creation request and a form submission request by checking whether request.post_vars is No

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py and self-submission/postbacks - a newcomer asks

I would handle setting defaults in the above example by setting the default value on the fields before the SQLFORM call like this: db.person.name.default = 'fieldvalue' -Jim On Mon, Jun 23, 2014 at 8:01 AM, Graham Ranson wrote: > Anthony writes: > > > If your going to use the web2py FORM or

[web2py] Re: Readonly elements (select and date field) respond to clicks, allow for changes and can be submitted?

That s what readonly means. readonly is an HTML attribute and has nothing to do with form processing. If you do not want them to appear in forms you have to tell the model: db.owner.own_end_date.writable = False # not writable db.owner.own_end_date.readable = False # do not show is at all! Mass

Anyone has observed this as well? Is this expected behavior? I understood the importance of giving a formname when you're dealing with two grids on one single page. This however concerns one single grid per page in which case I believe the formname is not required. It looks however that the l
