[web2py] Re: Migrating Postgres to MySql

Huh. Just tried db.export_to_csv_file() again and it wasn't nearly as slow as I thought before. It took about 2 minutes for a largish (but not my biggest) database, exported from Postgres. As a fun thing to try, I ran the same command under the most recent pypy and the same export took only

[web2py] Migrating Postgres to MySql

I've been using PostgresSQL for my production site for quite awhile. My future improved site, however, will feature MySql for its database engine. (Not a diss on Postgres, it's just a lot easier to find hosting companies who will rent me a supported-and-maintained MySql instance.) I have

[web2py] Re: field in list test

This is a quirk of Field objects. Field inherits from Expression, and the __eq__ method of Expression returns a Query object (rather than testing for equality and returning a boolean). So, if you do something like myfield == some_object, you do not actually get a test of whether myfield is

You need to set the "title" attribute to get text to pop up when you hover. If you inspect that "Register to Vote" button, you'll see it has both an "alt" attribute and a "title" attribute. Anthony On Friday, September 16, 2016 at 4:05:26 PM UTC-4, Alex Glaros wrote: > > maybe I'm not
