Hi all, I want to display/update several metrics in a normal page (not in a webpy form). These metrics got updated every minute and were stored in a log file. I prepared a function to open that log file then analyze the last several lines to collect them. I want these metrics got updated in every page load/refresh.
The first method I considered is to utilize Templetor (http://webpy.org/docs/0.3/templetor). I used $code block in the template but figured out soon that this solution won't work for the security reason. In my function I use open which is prohibited by webpy. Then I thought of `Import functions into templates` (https://github.com/webpy/webpy.github.com/blob/master/cookbook/template_import.md). In my case, there is no argument for that function. I followed the instruction but got the following error. checknow() takes no arguments (1 given) #in my application.py: def checknow(): ... return TN_str render = web.template.render('templates/',globals={'stat':checknow}) #in the template: $def with(checknow) ... ... <h1><div>Test: $stat(checknow)</div></h1> By the way, how to refer multiple values of the function checknow()? The function checknow() should return multiple values in the real case. Could you please help me out? Thanks a lot. Best Regards, -Yongzhi -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
