Hi Niphold, many thanks for your reply and valuable tips. On 23 Apr 2014 at 20:59:52, Niphlod (niph...@gmail.com) wrote:
you're doing "all" wrong. Stop copy/pasting for a sec and take a look to docs.....it'll save you from multiple headaches. Despite my error, isn’t it normal doing some copy-past while giving first steps? in this case, you're "doing wrong" form processing. It's either form = SQLFORM(...) if form.accepts(request.vars, session): ....things to do when form is valid elif form.errors: ....things to do when form has errors else: ....things to do when page is loaded the first time return dict(form=form) or (newer) form = SQLFORM(...) if form.process().accepted: ....things to do when form is valid elif form.errors: ....things to do when form has errors else: ....things to do when page is loaded the first time return dict(form=form) I’ve changed the code to this last newer form and it is working fine. Yes It makes sense but I think what confuses me most is the ‘so many ways to do it’. Meanwhile, looking here http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/07/forms-and-validators I can’t figure where is the newer or ‘older’ version. regards, Frank On Tuesday, April 22, 2014 7:32:03 PM UTC+2, ureal frank wrote: Hi, /newbie here/ I’ve up and running a very very simple task scheduler but I think it’s not well designed :/ under models/scheduler.py I have: " from gluon.scheduler import Scheduler def task_add(name, target): sum = 'hello ' + name + ' ' + target + '\n' with open('/tmp/tasks', 'w') as f: f.write(sum) scheduler = Scheduler(db, dict(task_add=task_add)) “ and in controller: “ def new(): form = SQLFORM(db.scan) name = “” target = “" if form.process().accepts(request.vars, session): name = form.vars.name target = form.vars.target response.flash = ‘Great scan' elif form.errors: response.flash = 'Error, try again' scheduler.queue_task('task_add’, pargs=[], pvars={'name': name, 'target': target}, start_time=request.now, #datetime stop_time = None, #datetime timeout = 60, #seconds prevent_drift=False, period=60, #seconds immediate=False, repeats = 1) return dict(scans=scans, form=form) “ This snippet is working but I think this “scheduler.queue_task(…)” should be processed inside “if form.process().accepts()”. But if I change the scheduler snipper into that code section, the task wont run and I don’t know why. two: questions 1) what I am doing wrong? 1.1) Maybe I should db.commit when the task is over. Should I code this under scheduler.py? 2) where can I learn more about debugging? Many many thanks in advance :) Cheers, -- Frank -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
