I copied and pasted the examples for web2py Digitally signed URLs andthey are giving errors on the latest stable build.
http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/4#Digitally-signed-urls TypeError: verifyURL() takes at least 1 argument (1 given) The error is confusing as it seems to confirm the correct syntax is being used. hmac_key is undefined, but it shouldn't be. Any ideas? Thank you! KEY = 'mykey' def one(): return dict(link=URL('two', vars=dict(a=123), hmac_key=KEY)) # added missing ')' def two(): if not URL.verify(hmac_key=KEY): raise HTTP(403) # do something return locals() Error ticket for "init" Ticket ID 2012-04-12.02-09-19.a3721873-db4c-4ad1-885f-0912f6bd7a53 <type 'exceptions.TypeError'> verifyURL() takes at least 1 argument (1 given) Version web2py⢠(1, 99, 7, datetime.datetime(2012, 3, 4, 22, 12, 8), 'stable') Python Python 2.7.1: /usr/bin/python Traceback Traceback (most recent call last): File "web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line 205, in restricted exec ccode in environment File "web2py/applications/init/controllers/default.py", line 498, in <module> File "web2py/gluon/globals.py", line 173, in <lambda> self._caller = lambda f: f() File "web2py/applications/init/controllers/default.py", line 79, in two if not URL.verify(hmac_key=KEY): raise HTTP(403) TypeError: verifyURL() takes at least 1 argument (1 given) Error snapshot help <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>(verifyURL() takes at least 1 argument (1 given)) Frames File web2py/gluon/restricted.py in restricted at line 205 code arguments variables File web2py/applications/init/controllers/default.py in <module> at line 498 code arguments variables File web2py/gluon/globals.py in <lambda> at line 173 code arguments variables File web2py/applications/init/controllers/default.py in two at line 79 code arguments variables Function argument list () Code listing def one(): return dict(link=URL('two', vars=dict(a=123), hmac_key=KEY)) def two(): if not URL.verify(hmac_key=KEY): raise HTTP(403) # do something return locals() Variables global URL <function URL> hmac_key undefined global HTTP <class 'gluon.http.HTTP'> URL.verify <function verifyURL> global KEY 'mykey'
