[web2py] Re: Custom registration form -- password_two [OPEN]
OK, this is reopened. It doesn't seem to matter whether the passwords are the same or different. If different, no error message is flashed. If same and the other fields entered correctly, the form doesn't seem to submit, the db isn't updated, and the page redirects right back to register again. Again, if anyone has a working example of a custom submit MCV I would very much like to see the whole thing. From the number of threads discussing this problem, I suggest a working example be published in an easy to find location.
[web2py] Re: hiding email password
GAE has magic around sending emails. Someone extended the Mail() class in web2py to work with this magic. basically you don't need passwords to send from a GAE application if you are sending mail as one of the administrators. your configuration for mail should look like: mail=Mail() # mailer mail.settings.server='gae'# your SMTP server mail.settings.sender='exam...@example.com' # your email auth.settings.mailer=mail# for user email verification and it will send mail. no password required. if a user is logged in via google accounts you can also send mail from that user. i'm using that for a support form - it sends mail to my support address from the logged in user. no passwords, it just works. pretty nifty, eh? good luck, cfh On May 23, 9:51 am, mattynoce mattyn...@gmail.com wrote: hi, i have a question about sending emails. i'm running my program on google app engine, and due to google's rules i need to have an administrator as the from for all my emails. so i created an account, let's call it sampleemai...@gmail.com, figuring that would be the from for all my emails for now. to send emails, sampleemai...@gmail.com needs to be an administrator of the application on gae, so i did that. but i'm in a situation where i'm sharing code with other developers i need to work with but don't want to give them admin access. in db.py, i have the following lines: mail.settings.sender='sampleemai...@gmail.com' mail.settings.login='sampleemai...@gmail.com:testPassword' but by giving web2py my email password, i'm actually giving other developers full administrative access to my application on gae. i recognize this isn't a web2py problem, but it's an issue i need to solve. does anyone have any ideas of how to get around this? thanks, matt

[web2py] auth.login problem - redirect on error
Hi all, in my controller site.py, i have this code for display a login form : def login() : return dict(form=auth.login(next=URL(a='helloworld',c='admin',f='index'))) When i try to login, if my login codes are correct, no problem. I am redirected to admin/index. But on error, I am redirected to an another controller, /default/login. Why ? How control redirection on error ? Thanks.
[web2py] Re: crud problem
Massimo,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I had to add the next
argument to the crud.update() function to get the check to delete work
properly. There's one small problem to solve, when the user logs in
the flash reads: Logged in. Whereas, I would like it to read 'Insert
tagline' or 'Update tagline'.
The function:
@auth.requires_login()
def index():
response.functionname='Basic account'
record=db(db.tagline.bedrijf_id==auth.user.bedrijf_id).select().first()
if record:
if not response.init_flash: response.init_flash='Update
tagline'
message='Tagline updated'
else:
if not response.init_flash: response.init_flash='Insert
tagline'
message='Tagline inserted'
db.tagline.bedrijf_id.default=auth.user.bedrijf_id
form=crud.update(db.tagline,record,next=(URL(r=request,f='index')),message=message)
return dict(form=form)
The view:
div id=oneColLayout
div id=primarycontent
{{if response.functionname:}}
h2{{=response.functionname}}/h2
{{pass}}
{{if response.flash:}}
div class=flash

[web2py] Re: auth.login problem - redirect on error
Hi Arnaud, Why don't you use default/user/login and set auth.settings.login_next=URL(a='helloworld',c='admin',f='index'), in that case, when login fails there is no need to redirect. When you need a custom Invalid login message just set: auth.messages.invalid_login='your customized message' Kind regards, Annet.

[web2py] Ajax style calls blocking
Hi guys,
I'm looking for some help on allowing controller functions to respond
to ajax calls from a view in parallel. I've got my head around the
basic web2py architecture, but this is my first time trying out ajax
in web2py.
Here's the problem. I have a simple view that makes a number of ajax
calls, to provide delay loading of data. The results are from querying
and parsing URLs on demand, so they can be slow. The controller
function I am calling (default/results_data) appears to be blocking,
only executing one request at a time. This obviously defeats the
purpose of delay loading the data on the page.
I have made sure I am running the web2py app locally with the -n
option (for threads), but this isn't the issue. I have found the
session.forget() call, but this isn't it either.
I am guessing there is something fundamental that I am doing wrong
here, I am hoping someone can clarify what is required to allow the
controller functions that respond to the ajax query to execute in
parallel, without blocking.
A snippet from the html generated by the view:
function sendRequest(url,callback,postData) {
try {
var req = createXMLHTTPObject();
if (!req) return;
var method = (postData) ? POST : GET;
req.open(method,url,true);
req.setRequestHeader('User-Agent','XMLHTTP/1.0');
if (postData)
req.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-
urlencoded');
req.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (req.readyState != 4) return;
if (req.status != 200 req.status != 304) {
alert('HTTP error ' + req.status);
return;
}
callback(req);
}
if (req.readState == 4) return;
req.send(postData);
}
catch (e) {
throw e;//alert(e);
}
}
...

function source1_results(req)

Massimo: First this is noble idea, we need a point man like you Massimo whom we describe the function and put the money we are willing to pay for the function at your disposal, you have a say whether the money is enough or not enough and clarity of the task before contacting the associate, then once everything is in order, the associate is contacted, the description and the fee will be discussed and the associate takes the description and performs the work and hand it to Massimo and the fee will be paid by Massimo ( this one is sure, it is Massimo who has the money and pays the associate).

[web2py] Re: Ajax style calls blocking

Here's the problem. I have a simple view that makes a number of ajax

[web2py] Re: Ajax style calls blocking
I might be completely wrong, but I think the problem is that web2py
locks the session file while executing controller's actions, so two
simultaneous requests within the same session are processed one by one
sequentially.

Massimo, Despite being a product and not a tool, the business plan of OpenERP is very interesting. I think that Regional/Country Departments of the Association can provide more global visibility to Web2Py. IMHO, a business plan to this association can have a certification program with three levels: bronze, silver and gold, and companies like mine for example, offer my services to customers presenting my Web2Py certificate. To have a [level] Certificate, your campany needs fill some criterias... what you think about this idea? -- Leandro.

[web2py] validation in forms, DAL and Database
In a db.py:
db.define_table('vendedor',
Field('auth_user_id', unique=True, default =
auth.user.id),
Field('direccion'),
Field('provincia'),
Field('coordenadas_gps'),
Field('email', requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_EMAIL()),
default = auth.user.email),
Field('telefono', 'integer'),
Field('profesional', 'boolean', default=True))
In the admin app, raises an error when 'auth_user_id' values is in
database, but not in controller, allowing repeated values in
'auth_user_id':
default.py
def registrovendedor():
form = SQLFORM(db.vendedor)
if form.accepts(request.vars, session):
response.flash = T('Registo válido')
elif form.errors:
response.flash = T('Atención: Errores en los datos del
formulario')
else:
response.flash = T('Por favor, rellene el formulario de
registro')
return dict(form=form)
what's wrong? It's necessary to validate in all levels (DAL, Form and
Database)? If you validate at low level (I think in database level),
why you must to validate at form level?

[web2py] before_filter / after_filter / around_filter in web2py
Hi, sorry for my poor english... I'm wondering how can I put controller code filters like rails (before_filter / after_filter / around_filter). Searching into user group posts I see many responses on activerecord callbacks (before_save / after_save) wrongly referred to question on before/after/around filter (controller filter). Now I know that in web2py I can put code into model /db.py) and that code is execute before globals and before controller code, my questions are: 1. in rails I write before_filter only for given controllers and given actions, seems that in web2py if I write the code in db.py it is executed for all controllers and actions, is there a way to limit that code execution to given controllers and actions ? (I think that put too much code into db.py may slow the excution of requests, it'isnt ?) 2. how can I write code execution that emulates after_filter or around_filter ala Rails ? (example: I want to track remote ip for all my controller/actions into database...), Many thanks in advance. Tex

[web2py] Sanitizer and strip()
Hello, I have a spot on my site where i want a user to be able to input HTML formatted text, with limitations to accepted tags. I would also like to use a WYSIWYG editor. The trouble that I'm having is that users like to write the stuff in Microsoft Word and paste it into the editor. When that happens all sorts of crap gets inserted into the HTML. I want to remove this from the HTML completely. I was looking at gluon.sanitizer and found this: from gluon.sanitizer import sanitize request.vars.story = sanitize(request.vars.dedication) logging.info(cleaned dedication is: %s % request.vars.dedication) trouble is that it escapes the HTML that i don't want. There is a method in sanitizer called strip(), but it really just escapes. would it be bad to extend the functionality of sanitizer to provide an option to remove the dis-allowed items rather than escaping them? (i've tried to make both nicEdit and OpenWYSIWYG editors strip for me, but neither works well - nicEdit misses some formatting, and OpenWYSIWYG removes *all* formating, even permitted formatting) Thanks, Christian

[web2py] Re: Custom registration form -- password_two
No becasue the object
INPUT(_type='password',name='password_two',_id='password_two'),
is not in the form object and therefore not processed by accept.
Moreover in your code I do not see the validation logic for password
too so I do not know where the error is.
My advice is use a
SQLFORM.factory(db.table,Field('password2','password',requires=...)))

form can only manipuate errors from form validation, not database

enforce it in forms.

Other tools are supported better, like web2py core libraries. The association can help make a distinction. Eventually we'll have something replacing T3.

I need to better keep track of you, the users, your skills and interests. You and I have some problems in common: 1) you are an individual or you own a small consulting company and you find hard to compete for large projects 2) you want to use web2py but you need to sell web2py before you can sell yoru services. 3) you need legal help (sample non-disclosure agreement, sample contracts, etc.) 4) for large projects you need to find people who can help you with development (you man need a designer, a coder, a system administrator, a GAE expert, etc). 5) you want somebody else to handle advertising for you I want to help. I want to help you find development jobs, network, and compete for larger projects by providing some assistance. I am about to create something like an association of web2py professionals with a portal that provides web sites for members, repository of legal forms, job posting, progress tracking, feedback forms, etc. Here is the basic idea: we do not advertise web2py, we advertise the association and its members. you find a client? you keep all the money. You want to offer your client long term support or code review? the association will sell that to the client directly directly. You want to be listed as a member?

You can have the company listed as an associate under some conditions. We can turn our group into a large international consulting organization overnight. There would be no contract between the association and you other than a code of conduct that you will have to follow to be listed and that I am about to wrote. You can continue to work as an individual or with your existing company. The association will just help when you need help. The association may also partner with some member to provide venture capital in the form of code development (and perhaps money but not immediately) for specific projects submitted to the association, in exchange of shares. I have already incorporated to do this. This will be independent and complementary form web2py itself and web2py would not be the only tool in the association approved toolkit. For now the toolkit will include: web2py, ubuntu, postgresql, jquery, and google app engine. You as an individual or a company can provide services based on other tools but the association will endorse these tools because we can easily find people skilled in them and you, as a member, will be required to endorse these tools as good tools and demonstrate your skills in some of them (not all of them). web2py is a tool. We will all outlive web2py. But we have created something important here. A community of skilled professional that share some experience. I want to see this grow with web2py and beyond web2py later. I want to see us compete with large consulting companies. I want to do it using a new business model in which there are no shareholders to take a cut of your work since they would not be providing any means of production to you (you already own a laptop and that is your office), yet I want to provide the other benefits that a large corporation can offer (a single image, consistency, reliability).

[web2py] help with auth.requires_login()
It would be nice to be able to pass the following arguments to @auth.requires_login(next=URL(...),message=T(...)) where next is the url to redirect to in case of no login. message is the message to be displayed. If somebody has time and wants to take a crack at it, let me know. It should be possible by modifying only the requires_login method. The problem is passing the arguments from the decorator to the function being returned. Once the problem is solved we can add the feature to requires_membership and requires_permissions. Massimo

[web2py] Re: Custom registration form -- password_two
@mdp: It isn't obvious to me how to mix the auth code with SQLFORM.factory and accept. The problem is that auth is such a black box that I don't know where to break into the flow of it. I believe this issue has come up enough times and been such a consistent stumbling block that I suggest you or someone else spell it out concretely (show the model, controller, and view) and put it either in the doc or in Alterego or somewhere findable. I can't imagine it's more than 20 or 30 lines of code total and would save loads of time and effort in the long run.

[web2py] Re: python 2.4 support
from http://www.logilab.org/blogentry/22498 I actually recommend creating a virtualenv environment without any kind of installation. Grab this file: http://bitbucket.org/ianb/virtualenv/raw/tip/virtualenv.py -- and you can run it like python virtualenv.py new-environment/ This installs Setuptools (or Distribute if you pass it a --distribute flag) and pip, and virtualenv doesn't need any installation itself. Also you don't need any root access on the machine. Also you can download and unpack the tarball and run the virtualenv.py script from within there (the tarball comes with all the source code for Setuptools, Distribute, and pip, so creating new environments then doesn't require downloading anything additional).

[web2py] Re: web2py hosting - least intervention required
VPS just gives you a Virtual Private Server for $25/month (including daily, weakly and monthly backups). You can install one of the many images they provide (like Ubuntu or any of the TurnKeyLinux appliances). On Ubuntu installing and configuring a full apache/ postresql/postfix/web2py just requires running /web2py/scripts/setup- web2py-ubuntu.sh They have a slider on the admin web site that lets you change the size of the virtual machine. They have API that allows you partition it and spawn more instances.I did not use these features. It is similar to Amazon but simpler (not S3, no SimpleDB) and much faster to deploy/administer.

You should be say the level at you want web2py be tested. net level? bruteforce alowed? local access? transport level? application? if you use ubuntu, you could want testing web2py at ubuntu, or web2py at ubuntu and cherry, and decide if you are included or not in that The other way I know of testing an app is undestanding how components are conected, and undestanding the consistency of the logic . Really this is my preffered one ^^ It's not necessary to hack, just imagine On 22 mayo, 16:31, mdipierro mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu wrote: I am very much interested in this.

Re: [web2py] Re: Custom registration form -- password_two
Stick the following code in a controller

form = SQLFORM.factory(
*user_table,
Field('password2', 'password', length=512,
requires=db.auth_user.password.requires),

if form.accepts(request.vars, session):
if form.vars.password == form.vars.password2:

last_name = form.vars.last_name,
username = form.vars.username,

if auth.settings.create_user_groups:
group_id = auth.create_group(user_%s user.id)

# to auto log them in
session.auth = Storage(user = user, last_visit = request.now,
expiration = auth.settings.expiration)
else:
form.errors.password = form.errors.password2 = Passwords do not match
Of course, you lose some of the finer things such as sending emails,
which could be added by looking at tools.py

Re: [web2py] Re: Custom registration form -- password_two
Wait... Doesn't web2py already have this built in?
Maybe I don't understand the question...
Using a plain vanilla `form = auth()` You get a register form...

Re: [web2py] Re: Custom registration form -- password_two
This may be a stupid question but...
Why are you not using form.custom ?
{{form.custom.start}}
fieldset{{form.custom.email.widget}}/fieldset

[web2py] Re: Custom registration form -- password_two [CLOSED (for now)]
@Thadeus: Thanks buddy. Appreciate it. As I suspected, it's got some complexity behind it and the total solution, including emailing, etc. takes a little doing. I'm going to rethink how I'm approaching this. I think the right thing to do is to leverage the underlying web2py infrastructure for doing the whole user-account creation, validation, login, password retrieval, etc. I've built this kind of stuff from scratch before and it's a pain. So piggy-backing on web2py without modification is a big win. But, I need to skin it to make it belong to my website. I suspect the path I'm taking is making it a lot more complicated than it needs to be. So for the time being, it's back to the drawing board.
[web2py] Re: in trunk - scraping utils
Hmm, I wonder if this is worth the possible maintenance cost? It also
transcends the role of a web framework and now you are getting into
network programming.
I have a currently deployed screen scraping app and found PyQuery to
be more than adequate. There is also lxml directly, or Beautiful
Soup. A simple import away and they integrate with web2py or anything
else just fine. So why our own?

Ok here is a link working since I disabled it on my blog.
This is just built into Auth class.
You can do custom styling with
{{form.custom.password_two.widget}}
And add by hand your fieldsets and etc.
Unless you are looking for more than just verify of the password, I
think this is the way to go.

Because it converts it into web2py helpers.
And you don't have to deal with installing anything other than web2py.
