Well, you're right about ``config["mykey"]`` not working in a test controller. I tried making a Pylons 1.0rc1 app and created a main controller, and tried to print ``config["mykey"]`` and ``app.config["mykey"]``. Maybe it's a new bug. The answers to all your questions above are the same. The ``config`` returned by load_environment() is a Pylons configuration instance, and it's the same as ``app.config`` which is set at the bottom of middleware.py. ``pylons.config`` is the same but it's wrapped in a StackedObjectProxy, which is a thread-safe, application-instance safe way of accessing it in a regular controller. But if you have the config instance itself, you don't need the proxy. You can call load_environment or make_app() yourself but they won't do exactly what you want. They don't parse the INI file. They expect you to have done that already and passed the settings in as keyword args. Only loadapp() parses the INI file. When I run nosetests, it passes the setup-app line.So whatever error you're getting in #3, I'm not getting. But the error message suggests that 'pylons.test.pylonsapp' is None. Why that would be, I don't know. -- Mike Orr <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
