Here is a better example of what I mean. in controller:
@auth.requires_login() def foo(): row = db(db.mytable.id == auth.user_id).select().first() return dict() in scheduler.py def sched_function(): row = db(db.mytable.id == auth.user_id).select().first() return dict() I am unable to fetch a row doing the same syntax in my scheduler function. It returns an empty row. I also tried to include "@auth.requires_login" but it doesn't seem to work. sorry for the miscomunnication On Jun 25, 2014, at 7:52 AM, Niphlod <niph...@gmail.com> wrote: > there's no such thing (conceptually) as "tables that exists only if the user > is logged in". > the concept is "a user logged in can read/update/delete/etc some tables". > That's what you do in "controllers". > tables are "defined" (not accessed) instead in "models", so are available to > everybody, scheduler included. > > On Wednesday, June 25, 2014 4:46:42 PM UTC+2, Cory wrote: > I am trying to access tables that require the user to be logged in.
