[web2py] Re: How to call other web2py applications from within a web2py application
Hi All,
I used this code like below in my view to call other
application as this is something simplest I could find.
a {{=LOAD (url='http://127.0.0.1:8000/wiki/index.html'}}
It did the job. But it overrides my selected application template and
if I try to access a url in the index.html page for wiki (as written
above) it then takes control of the entire page overriding my calling
application.
I even selected the same template for wiki but with some weird
results. So ultimately I coded the wiki in my current application
itself (as i need to quickly build myself a solution)
Ps: I am currently struggling with CRUD and creating tables for my db
applications in HTML Views. Something I want accomplished using
SQLTABLES ..
One suggestion, two actually -
1- Can we have a polished table rendering widget in web2py widgets for
the data rendered using SQLFORM. Also I found that I need a template
from creating tabs in views so I can code more complex applications
using these widgets. Can anyone let me know the trick to achieve this
or any helpful links. ?
2- How do I print data to a printer in web2py? any library or
documentation regarding the same? Also I need to show preview in PDF
format for database cursor data. Can anyone help on this? I could not
find any supporting information on it.
Thanks, Rahul

Thadeus - I initially commiserated with you: backward compatipility is backward compatibility --- but I alwasy thought Massimo held on to that phrase too strongly, too tightly. It's important for the big things, but it _always_ gets in the way of meaningful, useful change... I think perhaps Massimo's bordering on being dogmatic about backward compatibiliy may have an affect on how people react to this. But Jonathan gives an important insight: I always specify zero=... Even as zero=... didn't exist before, it's easy enough to do globeal search and modify to put it in - it's _really_ not a big deal; it's one of those things where dogmatically holding to the compatability principle is more trouble than adapting to this change. If it was happening all the time, often... this would be annoying; but occasionally, it is more than tolerable - it can even be a good thing, in the big scheme of things. You are, of course, free to see it in whatever way you happen to see it. I'm just offering a summary of a counterpoint for consideration.

Consider a CMS app that wants to install, for example, a plugin. A plugin contains code and needs to be installable at runtime. The plugin may also modify other application files (such as replace a layout or a model). I'm afraid this approach is incompatible with production packaging. In Debian, plugins are installed via the same packaging mechanism as the applications. Take a look at trac, for example - there are several debian packages containing trac-related plugins. I would not oppose to an external mechanism to locks/unlock *.py and *.html files for a certain app so that they cannot be modified by the www-data user while in production I'm glad we agree on that. but one cannot break the internal directory structure of the apps without crippling it. All right, we could try using the same symlink approach Mark mentioned earlier. How about this: a package containing the examples application is installed in /usr/share/web2py/applications/examples.

I'll see both problems and another solution to work around this. We could install web2py into /usr/ directories with apt.

Re: [web2py] Re: Survey: Functionality of the Drop Boxes widget
It is not so trivial to search and replace. For one, you cannot place keyword arguments before non-keyword args. So it is not a simple matter of find/replace IS_IN_SET(... with IS_IN_SET(zero=None..., there will have to be parsing of the syntax to determine where to place zero=. I am perfectly capable of making the changes, and most likely will. Other frameworks, have version upgrades that happen once a month at the very least frequency, with migration guides, change logs, and previous version supported bug fixes. Web2py cannot do this, for one the development cycle is more along the lines of hours/days instead of months, there are no migration logs, there are no change logs, there is no point of reference for upgrading version to version. As I have asked before, if Massimo would place an operational definition of backwards compatibility in the context of web2py, otherwise it is open to interpretation, and will be judged as those interpretations are assumed. If you are going to set a standard and a promise, you either define the parameters of that standard, or uphold it to the highest and most rigid interpretations. Here we realize the reason for religious debate and war, the absence of scientific definitions that allow individuals from all walks of life to understand from the same perspective and context. My interpretation is of not having to change a line of code to upgrade my application and have it look _exactly_ the same after the upgrade. The majority of use cases is 50/50 and depends on the context of the form. Even for me, the use cases differ from hobby applications to professional applications. -Thadeus On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 2:54 AM, Yarko Tymciurak resultsinsoftw...@gmail.com wrote: Thadeus - I initially commiserated with you: backward compatipility is backward compatibility --- but I alwasy thought Massimo held on to that phrase too strongly, too tightly.

[web2py] Re: Debian / Ubuntu packager needed!
Hi Dimo, I agree on the fact that there more roles. And I want to make a clear separation in the repo. Web2py applications for production use are put in the usr folder. And copied and protected by a startup script. For example you could take the write right from /controllers /models / views And store static and upload under var or or the user location mentioned in a email before. Web2py applications for development are put in the user location or / var Together with the application uploaded from web2py own application mechanism Those applications may never ever overwrite each other (I agree with you on that too) It is the most advance solution till now, But it's quite complex. Because of various way to run web2py. And it isn't very concrete at the moment, But it's a start.

Some time later you release XYZ 1.3.0 which gets installed on the user's computer via an automatic update. Now there are two version of XYZ on that computer - the mainstream 1.3.0 in /usr and user-modified 1.2.3 in /var. The changes that you made in 1.3.0 are incompatible with the user's changes, so there is no easy way to merge them together. The startup script can not just override the user's changes and install 1.3.0 in /var, that would be cruel. Let's assume it leaves 1.2.3 in /var intact. Now the user notices a bug in your application and decides to submit a bug report using one of the standard bug-reporting tools in Debian. The tool looks at the packaging database and reports that the user has XYZ 1.3.0 installed. Imagine your confusion when you receive this bug report, you thought you had fixed this problem, but it's still there. It's a nightmare, I would not want to maintain such an application. Let's admit that there are different roles: developers develop applications, users use them. When a user wants to become a developer he can install the application in his home dir and start working on it. There is another class of users who don't have any intention of modifying the application. They just want to use it, they want stability and predictability, and the packaging system gives them that.

[web2py] Re: Debian / Ubuntu packager needed!
Hi Kuba, Your indeed right that web2py is a higher application. So we could also decide not to pack any web2py applications into the apt repository. This is the most easy solution. Single user web2py server. And to make it according the guidelines, we make a startup script that create a runtime version. Might have some issues, but nothing to big. On the other side is solution descrypted in my reply to Dimo. Which is highly advanced when correctly implemented. But also very complex for us, but easy, but still advanced and secure for repository users. This is what web2py stand for. A secure, fast and advanced server. We have to come with a good plan, because it is hard to change it. regards Mark On Mar 22, 9:10 pm, Kuba Kucharski kuba.kuchar...@gmail.com wrote: web2py application are higher level.

[web2py] Re: proposal: change SQLFORM delete checkbox handling
The only problem I see but needs testing is what happens to an
existing app that uses the new SQLFORM with the existing
web2py_ajax.html code? Send me a patch and I will try it.
On Mar 23, 12:02 am, Jonathan Lundell jlund...@pobox.com wrote:
At the moment, there's a delete-confirmation checkbox that's turned on when
an SQLFORM is 'deletable'. It's a simple checkbox with class='delete', along
with this bit of code in web2py_ajax.html:
jQuery(input[type='checkbox'].delete).each(function(){jQuery(this).click(function()
{ if(this.checked) if(!confirm({{=T('Sure you want to delete this
object?')}})) this.checked=false; });});
It presents the user with a dialog, and if the use doesn't OK the dialog, the
box isn't checked and no delete occurs on submit.
This logic serves at least two purposes. One, it's a workaround for the
problem that having multiple submit buttons is problematical with IE. Two, it
forces the user to take three actions to delete a record: check the box,
confirm the deletion, and click submit.
I have to alternative suggestions.
One is to move the above jQuery logic into a simple 'onclick' attached to the
checkbox by SQLFORM. This gets rid of the jQuery requirement (with no loss of
functionality), but more important it allows us to have an option to
SQLFORM.__init__() to override the text associated with the confirmation.
'Sure you want to delete this object?' is somewhat idiosyncratic English to
begin with, but the main problem is that usually we'd like to be more
specific than this object. Depending on the record, we might say this
item or this item in your cart or this user or any number of things.
I see no downside to this. It's compatible, and the default action is
identical to the current mechanism.
Alternative: change the delete checkbox to a 'button' element labeled
'Delete'. Use onclick to attach a confirmation dialog to the button. If the
user confirms, do a submit of the form, but set a hidden variable in the form
to communicate the delete action to accepts. This avoids the IE problem
(there's only one submit button).
Downsides: the UI changes a checkbox to a Delete button, and JavaScript is
required to do a delete at all.

The script can create a web2py folder and populate it with specified applications taken from either production packages or plain w2p files. The script will be under package control, but the resulting web2py folder will not be. The user will decide where to store it, how to run it, how often to update it, etc. Regards, Dima. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py-users group.

Re: [web2py] Re: Debian / Ubuntu packager needed!
I am not sure I understand. If I understand you are proposing: 1) installing web2py into /usr/ as it (it will not run there) 2) provide a script to allow users to make a copy of what is needed for runtime (inluding applications/) 3) allow the user to run from the folder where files have been copied but using the shared gluon files. If I understand I am fine with this. That's correct, but it's only part of my proposal. The most difficult bit would be to create production application.

Other frameworks, have version upgrades that happen once a month at the very least frequency, with migration guides, change logs, and previous version supported bug fixes.

As it is, many of those free apps are no more than store-front dressing: hit-or-miss as to which ones will work out of the box. At least testing would facilitate saying things like ltest web2py tested with: - Yarko Web2py cannot do this, for one the development cycle is more along the lines of hours/days instead of months, there are no migration logs, there are no change logs, there is no point of reference for upgrading version to version. As I have asked before, if Massimo would place an operational definition of backwards compatibility in the context of web2py, otherwise it is open to interpretation, and will be judged as those interpretations are assumed. If you are going to set a standard and a promise, you either define the parameters of that standard, or uphold it to the highest and most rigid interpretations. Here we realize the reason for religious debate and war, the absence of scientific definitions that allow individuals from all walks of life to understand from the same perspective and context. My interpretation is of not having to change a line of code to upgrade my application and have it look _exactly_ the same after the upgrade. The majority of use cases is 50/50 and depends on the context of the form.

Another feature of web2py, is that we, its developers, commit to maintain backward compatibility in future versions. We have done so since the first release of web2py in October, 2007.

(events.room_id) is a foreign key. When i display these records I want
to display rooms.name, not events.room_id. Can someone give me a nudge
(or swift kick) in the right direction on how to do this? I suspect a
join of some sort is required, but that stuff confuses the hell out of
me. I've included some relevant code below.
Thanks!
#db.py
db.define_table('rooms',
Field('name'),
)
db.define_table('events',
Field('title'),
Field('event_date', 'date'),
Field('room_id', db.rooms)
)
#default.py
def index():
events = db().select(db.events.ALL, orderby=db.events.event_date)
return dict(events=events)
#index.html
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
table
tr
tdDate/tdtdEvent/tdtdRoom/td
/tr
{{for event in events:}}
tr
td{{=event.event_date}}/tdtd{{=event.title}}/
tdtd{{=event.room_id}}/td
/tr
{{pass}}
/table

[web2py] Re: jqGrid plugin + ajax search and pagination + ui themes
This _is_ nice; looking at source of some of the examples, I see stuff that looks like webpy templating in setup, so the challenge will be to keep it clear which parts are client-dynamic, and which parts should be served by the server (i.e. static within a view)... I want to play with this one! ;-) - Yarko On Mar 23, 12:09 pm, dspiteself dspites...@gmail.com wrote: I have been using another jquery grid. look at how custimizable the formatters and editors are.

[web2py] Re: clueless about db insert: IntegrityError: participant.type may not be NULL
Thanks! Adding the field as invisible works. But I prefer to dump -
drop - create - restore approach. After fiddling around I have two
questions about that though
1) Why can I see the db object with corresponding tables in shell, but
not access the database behind it? (ProgrammingError: Cannot operate
on a closed database.) I assume either my admin or my application is
locking it. But why would it do that if no transactions are going on?
2) In added tot the end of db.py:
for table in db.tables: db[table].drop()
The sql.log shows that most of the tables are indeed dropped (and
recreated in next request ). But two of my tables are not dropped and
no mention is made in sql.log. (no other error messages either)
db.tables
in shell shows which tables remained: ['auth_group',
'auth_permission', 'participant', 'svo_answer']
So my question becomes how do I get rid of the 'participant' and
'svo_answer' tables using web2py (both shell and application)?
Thanks again.

this will work, give it a try):

Hi,
I am new to web2py and really like it so far. I just ran into trouble
though, and can't find the solution myself.
The error message is:
IntegrityError: participant.type may not be NULL
as a result of calling:
db.participant.insert(unique_ref=ref, batch_type=session.batch_type,
batch_name=session.batch_name)
I have defined a table 'participants' and 'type' used to be one of its
fields. However, I changed the definition and the field is now called
'batch_type'. Since there is currently no 'participant.type' in my
code, why does it show up in the error message?
I hope someone has a suggestion.
Thanks .

Re: [web2py] Survey: Functionality of the Drop Boxes widget
Sorry, maybe I come late, but the best default option for me is: Please choose an option at the first place, with null or empty value associate.
