Thanks,
logic error noted, in this case it woun´t be a problem. Can´t think of a
fix without changing the idea behind this.
I find it interesting that some fields expect a specific type. Is ID the
only one?
user = db(db.auth_user.id == request.args[0] if
request.args[0].isdigit() else 0).select()
This didn´t work, it throws an error saying no table selected.
But instead I did it like this:
if request.args[0].isdigit():
user = db(db.auth_user.id == str(request.args[0])).select()
if len(user):
user_id = user[0].id
else:
user_id = 0
else:
user = db(db.auth_user.username == request.args[0]).select()
if len(user):
user_id = user[0].id
else:
user_id = 0

request.args always contain strings. str(request.args(0)) is
extraneous
There's a logic hole here: What if my username is "1" but my record's
id is 22. This code will return the record db.auth_user[1] when it's
supposed to return db.auth_user[22]
Anyway, ou get "invalid literal for int() with base 10" error because
auth_user.id expects integers and you're sending it a string,
"kenneth". Quick fix:
user = db(db.auth_user.id == request.args[0] if
request.args[0].isdigit() else 0).select()
That fixes the syntax error but not the logic error I pointed out
earlier.

Hello,
why can�t I do this:
user = db(db.auth_user.id == 'kenneth').select()
I know that this should result in len(user) = 0 but I�m sending
sometimes a text and sometimes a number and I�m trying to do this:
user = db(db.auth_user.id == str(request.args[0])).select()
if len(user):
user_id = user[0].id
else:
user = db(db.auth_user.username == request.args[0]).select()
if len(user):
user_id = user[0].id
else:
user_id = 0
