Is it possible to use SQLFORM to generate forms which show different
fields?
I.E. I have a model:
db.define_table('client',
Field('uid', auth_user),
Field('name', 'string'),
migrate = 'client.table'
)
I want a page which the client uses that hides the 'uid' field, which
gets filled in automatically by the controller.
A different page accessible to the superuser shows the field normally.
I tried:
db.define_table('client',
Field('uid', 'string', readable=False, writable=False),
Field('name', 'string'),
migrate = 'client.table'
)
with
form = SQLFORM(db.client, _id='profile_table')
if form.accepts(request.vars, session, dbio=False):
form.vars.uid = 2
form.vars.id = db.client.insert(**dict(form.vars))
and get the error
SyntaxError: invalid field names: ['uid']
The other approach I tried was to remove the 'readable' and 'writable'
from the model (But won't those prevent the superuser's page from
showing the 'uid' field??) and using the 'fields' parameter in the
SQLFORM call to explicitly set the fields I wanted to see. Same
result- the accepts() method rejects the added 'uid' var.
Finally I tried using the 'onvalidation' parameter. Same result.
Is there a way to do this??
