[Lift] Re: Getting started: Rendering a template (Definitive Guide)

[Morris Jones]

Great suggestion, and I'd love to do that.  When I changed the versions 
to 1.1-SNAPSHOT in the POM file, maven wasn't able to find them at 
scala-tools.org.

I guess I need to add another repository.  I'll look into that.

Thanks,
Mojo

[Lift] Re: Deploying

Timothy,

I'm just starting to learn how to use Nginx and would love to some
pointers. How did you set up Nginx? How to do you launch your Jetty
instances?

[Lift] Re: Symlinks and Javascript Files

[Peter Robinett]

mvn -Dorg.mortbay.util.FileResource.checkAliases=False  jetty:run lead
to:

HTTP ERROR 503

Problem accessing /jquery.sparkline.js. Reason:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Alias checking disabled

Is is just for the symlin in the webroot – requsting the one in the js
subdirectory still causes Lift to say it isn't in the SiteMap.

Any ideas? Thanks?

I think his point is that he wants it added by default, rather than there is
any problem. Personally, I don¹t see the point of adding it by default...
But hey.

On this note, I¹ve been thinking of perhaps having a re-shuffle in the code
base to group the archetypes together in a module and add a bunch of other
archetypes for various things such as:

PayPal
Akka
AMQP
Etc.

Thoughts?

[Lift] GitHub markup

I wrote (in a major rush) an example of using Paginator on the wiki.
http://wiki.github.com/dpp/liftweb/example-paginating-mapper-based-snippets-with-sortable-headersI
haven't figured out the markup too well though so it's not displaying
correctly. Can someone fix it? Thanks.

[Lift] Re: Test mail

[Ryan Donahue]

I use a "fake" smtp server called Dumbster:
http://quintanasoft.com/dumbster/

If run.mode is development or test, my app starts an embedded instance
of dumbster on an unused port and configures Mailer to connect to that
port.  Any email sent by the app is received by dumbster (and not
relayed).  If run.mode=development, I use ActorPing to periodically
iterate over the received messages and log them.  If run.mode=test,
then I leave the messages alone so unit tests can check the message
count and inspect the messages.

Here's some code to get started.

Put this somewhere it'll get executed early (e.g. in Boot):

  Props.mode match {
case Props.RunModes.Test => LocalSmtp.start(mailPort.get,
LocalSmtp.Mode.Queue)
case Props.RunModes.Development => LocalSmtp.start(mailPort.get)
  }

And here's a wrapper around Dumbster's SimpleSmtpServer for easy
access to the messages and logging and some other tricks to pop
messages as they are read:

object LocalSmtp extends Actor {

  private var server : Box[SimpleSmtpServer] = Empty
  private val log = LogBoot.loggerByName("LocalSmtp")
  private val logInterval = Helpers.TimeSpan(Helpers.seconds(5))

  var mode : Mode.Value = Mode.Log
  var port : Int = 7725

  object Mode extends Enumeration {
val Queue = Value(1, "Queue")
val Log = Value(2, "Log")
  }

  def start(port:Int) : Unit = {
this.port = port
start
  }

  def start(port:Int, mode:Mode.Value) : Unit = {
this.port = port
this.mode = mode
start
  }

  override def start = {
restartServer
if (mode == Mode.Log) {
  ActorPing.scheduleAtFixedRate(this, LogMessagesEvent,
logInterval, logInterval)
}
super.start
  }

  override def exit = {
stopServer
super.exit
  }

  private def restartServer {
stopServer
server = Full(SimpleSmtpServer.start(port))
  }

  private def stopServer {
server.map(_.stop)
server = Empty
  }

  def messages : Iterator[SmtpMessage] = {
server match {
  case Full(s) => {
import Conversions._
val msgs = new IteratorWrapper(s.getReceivedEmail.asInstanceOf
[java.util.Iterator[SmtpMessage]])
restartServer
msgs
  }
  case _ => Seq[SmtpMessage]().elements
}
  }

  def msgCount = server match {
case Full(s) => s.getReceivedEmailSize
case _ => 0
  }

  def act = {
loop {
  react {
case LogMessagesEvent => if (msgCount > 0) for(msg <-
messages) {
  log.info("RECEIVED EMAIL
---")
  log.info("From: " + msg.getHeaderValue("From"))
  log.info("To: " + msg.getHeaderValue("To"))
  log.info("Subject: " + msg.getHeaderValue("Subject"))
  log.info("Body: " + msg.getBody)
  log.info
("--")
}
case Scheduled => log.info("LocalSmtp logging is scheduled")
case any => log.error("LocalSmtp actor received invalid event:
"+any.asInstanceOf[Object].getClass.getName)
  }
}
  }

  case object LogMessagesEvent
}

[Lift] Re: Lift templates lack obvious stuff (?)

[incarn...@whiteants.net]

Oh, it certainly make more sense now, thanks a lot. My only concern is
that "with-param" is not very self-descripting name for this feature.
I would suggest something like

  
...
  

Any markup should be readable and have some semantics. And it should
be documented in very basics, I presume.
Thanks again, Mr. Marius.

[Lift] Re: SHtml.a generating an with bad attributes

[marius d.]

Ok .. I think I know what it is ... I'll try to fix it tomorrow
(unless Dave thinks of something sooner). The attributes or surround
are temporary added inside processSurroundAndInclude and for lift
builtin snippets using S.attrs or S.attrsToMetaData etc. the surround
attributes are merged with lift:a attributes for some reason.


Dave did you add this recently ? ... I mean the call to S.setVars
(elm.attributes) {processSurroundAndInclude(...) } inside
LiftSession.processSurroundAndInclude (LiftSession line 935)

It does to me as well. And a somewhat serious one.  FYI this bug (if
it is indeed a bug) does *not* occur in Lift 1.0, but does in 1.1-M1
and later versions.

Thank you, one thing though. The expression: "MyView" :: _  didn't
convert into a Link object with directory listing true. So instead I
used:
Menu(Loc("MyView",new Link("MyView" :: Nil, true),"MyView"))

I thought that all the views were implicitly mapped to viewClass/
method. I understand now that i'll have to use the sitemap

[marius d.]

One small advice ... your code would probably be be read by more
people if some minimal formatting is applied :) ... I can imagine you
didn't do it on purpose though :)

Actually I like it.

Just something really unimportant and subjective: how do you feel
about ->> instead of %> ? (I understood your rationale of choosing %)

[Lift] Re: bind implicits

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

How about BindPlus? BindUtil(s)? Better name anyone?I could put bindSwitch*
there too, as well as other specialized binds. bindSwitch isn't too useful
without chaining.
*bindSwitch lets you have two or more parts of the view which act as a
switch -- only one is visible at a time -- even if they each have different
bind logic. It lets you write:
// with implicit: xhtml.bindSwitch("prefix", ...
// without implicit:
bindSwitch("prefix", xhtml,
  Seq("noResults", "hasResults")) {
results.size match {
  case 0 => 0 -> bind("prefix2", xhtml, "link" -> SHtml.link(...)
  case 1 => 1 -> bind("prefix2", xhtml, ...)
}
}

Also, maybe I should put keepAttrs (wraps an Elem in a NodeSeq=>NodeSeq that
preserves the attributes) in BindHelpers,
Then I could put an implicit in the new object that lets you write more
concisely:
bind("prefix", xhtml,
  "edit"  %>  SHtml.text(...)
)
This will let you put attributes in the view. For example,

 What do people think of the following? I wrote some implicits that allow
 you to call bind as a method on a NodeSeq, allowing you to chain several
 bind statements.For example:
   def edit(xhtml: NodeSeq) =
 xhtml.bind("prefix1",
   "label1" -> value1,
   "label2" -> value2
 ).bind("prefix2",
   "label1" -> value3,
   "label2" -> value4
 )

 This already exists in net.liftweb.mapper.view.Util.
 My question is whether I should put it into BindHelpers so it would
 always be available.

No.  The two concepts are very far apart (and %> is a work-in-progress

Yeah... put them in a separate object (Not Helpers or a trait that gets

[Lift] Re: bind implicits

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

Should I leave it in view.Util? Or is there a better place? Because I really
meant it (actually the whole view package) to support Mapper-based views,
and this isn't related to Mapper.

[Lift] bind implicits

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

What do people think of the following? I wrote some implicits that allow you
to call bind as a method on a NodeSeq, allowing you to chain several bind
statements.For example:
  def edit(xhtml: NodeSeq) =
xhtml.bind("prefix1",
  "label1" -> value1,
  "label2" -> value2
).bind("prefix2",
  "label1" -> value3,
  "label2" -> value4
)

This already exists in net.liftweb.mapper.view.Util.
My question is whether I should put it into BindHelpers so it would always
be available.
Thanks.

[Lift] Test mail

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

How can I test mailing when offline? (Besides having a switch in my program
to output mailed emails.)It would be nice if you could have all mails
logged, with all their headers and body, and whether it was sent, preferably
to a separate log file.

I don't see in your code the use of the overloaded ajaxText that I

[Lift] Case insensitive LIKE query

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

I'm using H2, and LIKE queries seem to be case sensitive. What should I do
to search fields without being case sensitive?For example, right now I have:
Client.findAll(Like(field, "%"+v+"%"))
In SQL I can write SELECT FIRST FROM CLIENT WHERE UPPER(FIRST) LIKE '%A%';
So is there a way to specify a database function in a query (without using
SQL)?
Thanks.

[Lift] Re: slow down ajax?

[g-man]

OK, thanks for checking back...

Snippet:
swappable({task.dueOn.toString},
  {ajaxText(task.dueOn.toString,
  v => { task.dueOn(v.toLong).save; reDrawTasks();
  }) % ("size" -> "10")})

JS:
$chgDueon // jQuery selection for text field
.datepicker({dateFormat:'m-d-yy', minDate: +1})
.blur(function(){$chgDueon.val(parseDate($chgDueon.val()));});
// works well to pick a new date and change it to millis for save

Emitted XHTML:

   
   1248493271843
   
  



So, all the parts work well together, but Lift's ajax just takes off
too quickly, and cannot read the new value.

[Lift] SHtml.a generating an with bad attributes

[harryh]

I'm getting HTML like this (which fails to render):

ignore

when, down in the guts of a page I have something like this:


  


in Page.tips(xhtml: NodeSeq) I have:

bind("tip", xhtml, ...
  "ignore_link" -> a(Text("ignore")){
// some other stuff
JsCmds.JsHideId("tip"+tip.id)
  })

Note that I am using  to surround the entire page with
"chrome.html" (in templates hidden), and this bit of HTML is also
ed with section.html.

This is with Lift 1.1-M4.

Any idea what might be going on here?  This is very mysterious to me.

[Lift] Re: Attributes question

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

Hi, sorry, not sure why I didn't see your message earlier. Strange... Has
anyone written any code to address this topic in the meantime? In case not,
here's all the code I've written for such purposes; tell me what you think.

def keepAttrs(elem: Elem) = (ns: NodeSeq) => BindHelpers.currentNode match {
case Full(inElem) => elem % inElem.attributes case other => elem } protected
class Keepable(elem: Elem) { def %% = keepAttrs(elem) } implicit def
elemToKeepable(elem: Elem): Keepable = new Keepable(elem) protected class
KeepBind(name: String) { val emptyFn: NodeSeq=>NodeSeq = _ => NodeSeq.Empty
import scala.xml.{Node, Text} import net.liftweb.util.Bindable def %>(in:
Elem) = FuncBindParam(name, keepAttrs(in)) def %>(in: Box[Elem]) =
FuncBindParam(name, in.map(keepAttrs) openOr emptyFn) def %>(in:
Option[Elem]) = FuncBindParam(name, in.map(keepAttrs) getOrElse emptyFn) }
implicit def strToKeepAssoc(name: String): KeepBind = new KeepBind(name)


keepAttrs could actually be implemented shorter:

elem currentNode.map(_.attributes).openOr(scala.xml.Null))

etc.

Does that imply any reason not to have %> as a bind-with-attributes
syntax? See

David,

Go for it, Dude! Who knows, you might come up with something new. With a
Scala encoding as the 'informal spec' i can tell you what semantics are
already out there and how yours compares.

[Lift] Re: CMS for Lift?

[Stefan Scott]

I'll chime in here since I've been evaluating several CMSs lately.

I previously used Drupal and WordPress as my CMSs - now however I'm
moving everything to MODx because of the increased flexibility and
more-logical organization, and I'm also impressed with the demos of
SilverStripe, TypoLight Typo3 - and LifeRay, which is written in Java
instead of PHP. (LifeRay seems to be much more than a CMS - it claims
to offer collaboration and social networking.)

Some on-line demos here:

MODx - http://trymodx.com/
SilverStripe - http://demo.silverstripe.com/
TypoLight - http://www.typolight.org/demo.html
Typo3 - http://testsite.punkt.de/
LifeRay - http://demo.liferay.net/web/guest/home

It would be good to take a look at these additional CMSs as they offer
some capabilities beyond WordPress and Drupal.

Drupal in particular is wildly popular but it may no longer be the
best candidate to imitate, as it is less well-organized and less
flexible/customizable (compared say to MODx, which lets you take CSS
from an existing site and use it for your site, and which lets you
apply a template to a single document, unlike Drupal where a theme
applies to the entire site). To keep up with advanced CMSs, Drupal has
evolved to use a bunch of (often redundant or competing) modules which
are not always compatible with current releases. Examples of things
that Drupal treats as "add-ons" (modules) are: custom content (the
"CCK/Views" modules, with their confusing albeit AJAX-y interface),
multi-language, and photo galleries (I gave up on Drupal after a few
days of trying out various photo gallery modules, none of which I
could understand). Finally, it seems odd that Drupal, as a "content
management system", lacks something all advanced CMSs have: a
*treeview* of the overall site content. Instead, it only has a jumbled
*list* of content, sorted by not by location but by last edited (!),
with all translations also scattered through the list based on last-
edited date, and this list is buried several levels deep in the admin
navigation system, unlike the site content treeview navigator which is
prominently displayed (usually on the left) in advanced CMSs. (Of
course, I don't want to veer off-topic here and start a CMS flame war
here in this liftweb discussion. :-)

Regarding "dynamic site map" creation - I do know that MODx has
something like this, using WayFinder to create a menu from selected
branches of the site's document tree, automatically including any
updated sub-branches, and I believe most other advanced CMSs have
something like this too.

LifeRay seems very intriguing - it claims to do a lot beyond just CMS.
Since it's written in Java (not PHP), who knows if some of its code
could be leveraged in Scala.

So these might be some additional interesting CMSs to keep in mind
(beyond Drupal and WordPress) when building a new CMS using liftweb.

[Lift] Re: Deploying

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

Thanks everyone.This webapp is not going to be used very heavily or have a
very demanding customer base. It's for an organization that will have around
5 people using it total, not necessarily at the same time. So I don't need
any fancy setup like continuous integration etc.
It's also the second version of the first webapp I've written (the first was
in PHP).
After I sent the question, I came across a thread from David (it was on
Nabbles, I would guess from this group) where he described how to use nginx
as the frontend web server and Jetty as the backend.
I should probably ask this on that thread, but [when] would I want to use
nginx and not just Jetty? (Nothing else needs to be running on the server.)
Also, what's the difference between the Jetty download link it had (
www.tunaforcats.com/deploy_jetty.tgz) and something you can download from
Jetty's site? (And what exactly *is* tunaforcats.com ??!)


Question 2:
Any reason to run H2 either as a separate process or as part of the webapp?

Thanks.

[Lift] Re: Invoking Views

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

Are you coming from an MVC framework? Many of them use the approach you
described, but Lift does not."MyView.hi" (under the covers MyView.doRender
of course) is a snippet. Snippets are XML transformers.
On the other hand, the page you put into your SiteMap should refer to an
x(h)tml document, which may contain snippet tags, such as .
These will be intercepted by Lift and and transformed by your snippet.

[Lift] Invoking Views

[Michel Klijn]

Hi,

I'm new to Lift and I've been fooling around with all it's cool
features.

At the moment, I'm trying to access MyView that I have defined in the
view package. When I try to access the view via the URL:"
http://localhost:8080/MyView/hi " I get the following message:
The requested page was not defined in your SiteMap, so access was
blocked.

According to the view chapter (3.7)  in the book(Exploring Lift August
12, 2009) I downloaded from Github, it should work this way.

I'm a bit lost... what is it that I'm doing wrong?

thanks,

Michel

P.S snippets,and comets do work

package net.mkl.zooloretto.view
import ...
class MyView extends LiftView{

override def dispatch = {
 case "hi" => doRender _
}

def doRender () : NodeSeq = {

hai!


}

[Lift] Re: Getting started: Rendering a template (Definitive Guide)

[David Pollak]

It's also a really, really good idea to use Lift 1.1-SNAPSHOT or Lift
1.1-M4.  There's a polite error message when in development mode that points
out that the particular page needs to be added to SiteMap.

Derek & Co.  Any way to update the PDF book to use 1.1-*something*?

With Goat Rodeo, you can define message flow with an abstract source (input)
and sink (output) in the form:

Foo %> Bar %> (Baz * Distribution)

You can define fork/join constructs, tee constructs, etc. in the high level
flow description.  The flow description defines the type-safe progression
from each logic unit.  The location of each logic unit and the
threading/transport model is decided at runtime.  This means that you can
define logic models and plug in an "Akka distribution and threading"
strategy for production or a "single threaded" strategy for your local test
harness.

You'll also be able to register the composed modules that can be composed
into larger flows.

So, how does this work with SOAP?  Well.. the SOAP piece is just a source
and sink for the logic flow.

I'm able to create a new "Basic" Lift app from archetypes... and it works
just fine.  Can you tell us what command you typed to get an archetype that

If you implement newSuperconnection in ConnectionManager, you can define the

[Lift] Re: IMPORTANT for H2 users

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

Yes, I see that David added a method to ConnectionManager:

  def newSuperConnection(name: ConnectionIdentifier):
Box[SuperConnection] = Empty

which you can override using his new SuperConnection constructor:

class SuperConnection(val connection: Connection,val releaseFunc: ()
=> Unit, val schemaName: Box[String]) {
  def this(c: Connection, rf: () => Unit) = this(c, rf, Empty)
...

and specify the schema name.
So if you've been using H2 and don't want to switch to the default schema,
just override it in your ConnectionManager class (often called DBVendor,
which you pass to DB.defineConnectionManager).
Thanks, David!

Cool.  I also added (in response to your ticket) a bunch of ways to define
the default schema name including a global in DB and a per-connection name.

[Lift] Re: IMPORTANT for H2 users

[Derek Chen-Becker]

I think that you'd have to do it programmatically in the connection setup
(in ConnectionManager).

[Lift] Re: CMS for Lift?

Tim,
Mapper is mixing inestricably persistence and visualization+validation
semantics, and effectively this is something that slow down my
implementation effort. I look forward for your blog post on backend
implementation.

Giuseppe,

Im sure you already know this, but be carfull when comparing mapper to
record... There implementations (whilst similar) are semantically
different... Certainly that's been my experience whilst implementing a
custom backend for Record (blog post coming soon)

From: Josh Suereth 
Date: Sun, Aug 16, 2009 at 8:40 PM
Subject: [scala-user] Scala Lifftoff (Reston, VA)
To: Scala User 


Greetings All!

We're organizing a Scala Lift-Off "unconference" event for Friday, October
30th in Reston, VA (A Short hop away for those attending the OOPSLA
conference).  For those of you who may be unfamiliar with the unconference
phenomenon, here's a PDF  that outlines the process.

Topics likely to include:

   - Initial Steps in Lift
   - New Features to 2.8.0 -> How can we leverage them?
   - Functional Library Design
   - Continuation Based Programming
   - Concurrency Paradigms in Scala (STM, Actors, etc.)
   - Binary Incompatibilities -> Dealing with an evolving Scala Ecosystem
   - "Whittling an API" -> Crafting DSLs in Scala (Thanks Nathan for the
   great name!)
   - Scala Integrations -> Using Scala with existing projects, e.g. EJBs,
   Seam, Spring, Hibernate, Wicket 
   - Scala Build tools -> Which should I use?
   - What IDE should I pick and how to become effective with it


Sign up is available here.
(More website remodeling to come in future weeks).


There is a discount available for full-time students/academics, please email
me for the discount code.


This event is being sponsored by FGM, Inc.  They are located at 12021 Sunset
Hills Rd #400, Reston VA.  A Special Thanks for all their support of the
Scala community!


We look forward to your participation!

[Lift] Re: CMS for Lift?

[Naftoli Gugenheim]

Note that there have been some fixes to OneToMany, LongMappedForeignMapper, and 
ManyToMany recently.
Also, if you like it fine, but keep in mind that I'm not a professional 
programmer with years of experience, nor is the implementation a result of any 
sort of research. I simply wished to have such functionality in a reusable 
format and mentioned my work on the list, and David invited me to share it. 
(That's why I'm fixing bugs now, after I got to the part of my project that 
uses it heavily.) So if you have another approach don't assume mine is "proven" 
or better!

[Lift] Re: CMS for Lift?

[Giuseppe Fogliazza]

I confirm that there are some efforts in progress. Particularly I am
writing a jsr 170 (jackrabbit) backend for Record. It is taking longer
than expected because I am extending Record with reference field and
multivalued field that are of paramount relevance in domain modeling.
I studied recent extension to Mapper (TableEditor, OneToMany,
ManyToMany) as a starting point.

Giuseppe

[Lift] Using mapper for calculated field?

[Jeppe Nejsum Madsen]

Hi,

In my data model I have:

contractStart extends MappedDate
contractLength extends MappedInt

In some views I would like to show contractEnd which is
contractStart+contractEnd. 

It would be nice if I could reuse all the mapper functionality for
converting to html/json/forms etc, but I can't seem to figure out if
this is possible with the existing code or even by creating a subclass
of MappedField

If add a mapped field with a non-existing column name, I get an
error. If I add a mapped field with the same column name as en existing
field, the original column is not loaded correctly.

Any hints?

/Jeppe

[Lift] Re: How do I add jar files to my app?

[marius d.]

The JDBC driver should not be in the applications class-path (WEB-INF/
lib) but in container's classpath. Say jetty's lib folder.

I put ojdbc.jar in both src/webapp and src/webapp/WEB-INF and it makes
no difference. I dug into the code so that I could figure out how to

[Lift] How to get list of mapped fields from MetaMapper?

[Jeppe Nejsum Madsen]

hi

I'm trying to create an application specific CRUDify but I can't
figure out how to get the list of mapped fields from a MetaMapper.

MetaMapper has a mappedFieldList, but it is package private for some
reason??

mappedFields doesn't have the type info, nor does BaseMappedField have
the relevant methods (see below)

On a related note, why aren't many of the methods/fields in TypedField
in BaseMappedField instead? It would seem that stuff like displayName,
dbDisplay_?, dbIncludeInForm_? etc would be more appropropriate there
and doesn't rely on the type of field??

For now, my work around is to put my trait in the net.liftweb.mapper
package. Not ideal :-)

It may be overkill for you if it's just a one time install, but I've had
great success with Chef (http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Home) to
do automatic provisioning of servers/services/deployment.

Some time ago, I wrote a series of articles that describes a basic setup
to deploy a basic "Hello World" Lift app to EC2. If you skip the EC2
part, you may find something useful:
