Re: cron maintenance script, need access to pylons globals object...
Try doing this as a custom paste command.You can simply write a
command for paste; then you call that command like paster command (i
think; its in the documentation on how to use it).

is my only option to go through and rewrite my project without using
the g variable, or is there a way for it to be pulled in when i run my

them, so i used the globals object instead of ini, to not have so much

any suggestions?

Re: AuthKit for Static Files
Well Apache handles the HTTP Digest mechanism only if I am using mod_wsgi with a custom backend. Using Paste the Authkit middleware handles that. What I was hoping for was the ability to use the Authkit middleware (so it links to my database); as well as be able to encompass serving my static files. The only way to do that it seems is to use mod_wsgi and use a custom authentication provider and point it at a custom script that works with Authkit.

Re: Pylons + Dojo
It worked!
based on your suggestion, I tried on google and I found the site:
http://www.rexx.com/~dkuhlman/ http://www.rexx.com/%7Edkuhlman/
Thanks for your help!
See the results below!
CLASS
def login(self, sUsrNme, sUstPwd):
result = OK
return result
routing.py
map.connect('route01', '/teste/login/:sUsrNme/:sUstPwd',
controller='teste', action='login',

Hi Mauricio,

I am new to pyton
I am trying to use Pylons + Dojo and I am having trouble calling a

with multiple parameters. What is an example of that?
Thanks a lot
Ex:
--IN THE CONTROLLER

@jsonify
def login(self, sUsrNme, sUstPwd ):
result = ok
return result
--IN THE PAGE
var xhrArgs = {
url: /teste/login/,

load: function(sUsrNme, sUsrPwd ){
dojo.byId(basicFormTab).innerHTML = Message

},
error: function(error){
dojo.byId(basicFormTab).innerHTML = We'll 404 in the
demo, but that's okay. We don't have a 'postIt' service on the docs
server. ;
}
}
The error returned is:
TypeError: login() takes exactly 3 arguments (1 given)
If you set parameters to the function, they are expected to be given
in the url (through a routes parameter, so you would have to configure
a route for that one) - and example for that would be
/teste/login/Master, then the first argument to the action would be
Master
If you post to the action, like you do, you have to take a look at the
request dictionary, which wil contain the parameters you posted to
the function, or were in get parameters.
I hope that helps!
Cheers,
Jens

Multi-Project Setup
Hi there, I am currently developing a pylons-application with elixir on top that has a multi-project setup included. It should work the following way: A user visits a url like /myapp/project/1 ... and the project-id 1 is saved in the session. After that, the user is redirected to the login-page where he can perform a project- specific login. Each project owns a separate database and therefore an own data model with a standardized interface. Now i'm looking for the best way to achieve this. By default, pylons creates the database using the connection string from the ini-file, so it would be an idea to use separate ini-files per project, but it seems impossible since the application has already bootstrapped when the model shall be selected. Does anybody have a hint how to get there? Thanks a lot. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups pylons-discuss group.

Change response status in error document
Hi all, I used to (Pylons 0.9.7rc4 previously) force the response status to 200 in some circumstances (like a request from a flash player since it can't handle anything but status 200...). I updated to 0.9.7 yesterday it doesn't work anymore. response.status_int in ErrorController used to work. But in StatusCodeRedirect, the status coming from the 2nd call to call_wsgi_application() (newstatus, coming from ErrorController) is ignored. status, headers, app_iter, exc_info = call_wsgi_application( self.app, environ, catch_exc_info=True) if status[:3] in self.errors and \ 'pylons.status_code_redirect' not in environ and self.error_path: # Create a response object environ['pylons.original_response'] = Response( status=status, headerlist=headers, app_iter=app_iter) environ['pylons.original_request'] = Request(environ) # Create a new environ to avoid touching the original request data new_environ = environ.copy() new_environ['PATH_INFO'] = self.error_path newstatus, headers, app_iter, exc_info = call_wsgi_application( self.app, new_environ, catch_exc_info=True) start_response(status, headers, exc_info) Is there an official way to permit the ErrorController to change the response status?

You can move them out of the public directory and serve them in a
controller action; then you can apply the normal AuthKit controls to
it. For instance, I had to log a directory of static help files using
logging code I had already written for Pylons.
# routing.py
map.connect(help, /help/{url:.*}, controller=main, action=help)
# MainController.py
def help(self, url, environ, start_response):
``url`` is the rest of the request path.
``environ`` and ``start_response`` are special args in Pylons,
used to chain to another
WSGI application.
# Using the Unipath package here, but you can use os.path instead.
url = Path(url or index.htm)
page = url.stem # Base filename without directory or extension.
help_dir = Path(config[pylons.paths][help_files]) # My
own config variable.
path = Path(help_dir, url)
if not path.exists():
abort(404)
if url.ext == .htm and not page.startswith(wh):
self.sitestats.log_event(help, page)# My logging
code; log view of help section.
app = FileApp(path)
return app(environ, start_response)

Re: What I've learned deploying pylons
Do you mean better mod_wsgi documentation as part of the Pylons documentation, or that mod_wsgi itself needs better/more documentation? I guess I mean better or more complete example is probably a better choice of words rather then documentation because as you already mentioned mod_wsgi has good docs I second that. I think Graham has written a ton of good stuff and has provided first rate support on mailing lists, but ... for cases where the user reading is not nears as experienced as the author, the docs are a bit overwhelming technically. I've found that when I'm wading through stuff that's over my head, lots of simple examples are my favourite bit, even if they seem redundant and pedantic to the author.
