Re: [web2py] Re: The stability of web2py releases
should we have a stable and beta (latest) release? Many people do not use trunk, because changes too fast I guess. Having a beta period before stable could help attract more beta testers, but I think it would add a burden for version control... mic 2010/12/22 ron_m ron.mco...@gmail.com: If you are sensitive to new releases to production then take a slower approach. 1.90.1 to 1.90.6 happened in just over a day with very big changes coming into 1.90.1 to make the future development in certain directions possible. I think there were more problems found in trunk testing before release than after. I helped test trunk but once everything was fixed for my use of the application server I could no longer add any value since it all worked for me for at least a week before the public release came out. If production was on 1.89.5 and a one week wait were used post next release which I would consider aggressive upgrading to production then 1.91.1 would be where you are today which is mostly license comments compared to 1.90.6. I am still developing the application I am working on so I follow the releases quickly there to get some testing in but I have some beta production systems up and haven't touched them in several weeks. I guess they call that staging. I also hang onto a copy of the old release until I am sure the next is good so it can be swapped back quickly.
[web2py] Re: Left Join with aliased table and the new DAL
Ok in order to simplify the problem I have changed my code to this:
Domain = db.domain
Client = db.client
Manager = db.contact.with_alias('manager')
sql = db((Domain.id==1)(Client.id==Domain.client_id))._select(
Domain.name, Client.name, Manager.name,
left=[Manager.on(Manager.id==Client.manager_id)])
print sql
The result is:
SELECT domain.name, client.name, contact.name FROM domain, client,
contact LEFT JOIN contact AS manager ON (contact.id =
client.manager_id) WHERE ((domain.id = 1) AND (client.id =
domain.client_id));
And this request is not correct for PostgreSQL. I think that it should
be :
SELECT domain.name, client.name, manager.name FROM domain, client
LEFT JOIN contact as manager ON (manager.id = client.manager_id) WHERE
((domain.id = 1) AND (client.id = domain.client_id));
Which works well.
In order to push research further I also tried to do only INNER JOIN
with an aliased table and it partially works:
Domain = db.domain
Client = db.client
Manager = db.contact.with_alias('manager')
sql = db((Domain.id==1)
(Client.id==Domain.client_id)
(Manager.id==Client.manager_id))._select(
Domain.name, Client.name, Manager.name)
print sql
Result:
SELECT domain.name, client.name, contact.name FROM domain, client,
contact WHERE (((domain.id = 1) AND (client.id = domain.client_id))
AND (contact.id = client.manager_id));
It works but it doesn't use the alias name for the table contact. Thus
the resulting dict() doesn't contains the key manager but the key
contact.
Thank you for investigating this problem so quickly.

[web2py] Members database
Hello, a small design question. I´m planing a intranet which contains a members database. Their postal address and some other info. Would you use the auth_user table to store all members or make a different table for it. - If I use auth_user what to do with members not intresered in login? - If I choose to make a different table, some of the members will be using the intranet so they their e-mailaddress would be in two places Kenneth
[web2py] Apache quits Java governance group in protest of Oracle abuses
Just to keep u update on the Oracle takeover Sent to you by Michele via Google Reader: Apache quits Java governance group in protest of Oracle abuses via Open Ended by segpha...@arstechnica.com (Ryan Paul) on 12/9/10 The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) announced today that it is resigning from the executive committee of the Java Community Process (JCP), the governance body responsible for managing standards related to the Java programming language. The move is a response to Oracle's ongoing failure to comply with the intellectual property policies established by the JCP. The heart of the issue is that Apache can't certify that its open source Java implementation—called Harmony—conforms with the Java language standards because Oracle refuses to supply the necessary test suites under a suitably open license.

[web2py] Pagination, memory usage and grids(jqgrid, powerTable, webgrid)
I work with tables of hundreds of thousands of records. Although jqgrid seems faster than the other grids mentioned in the Subject-line it still works too long when a large table is selected. All the abovementioned grids have their own pagination but it seems that they do not use that while querying the database. The result is that it uses large chunks of RAM. Now my question: is it possible to combine the easy pagination options available in the abovementioned grids with smaller queries to the backend or is the only option for me to use my own pagination (like the example in the book) in combination with SQLTABLE?

Re: [web2py] The stability of web2py releases
Regards, Sometimes I notice that when an error is detected in the stable,this is fixed in the trunk. On the other hand, all the new featuresare included in the trunk. New features bring new bugs, thus thetrunk will always have some errors that are passed to the stable. I think there should be a version, not to call it ... , Something likeUbuntu LTS (Long Term Support). and that this version receiveimmediate bug fixes. and other critical updates that do notprovide new features mean, for a considerable time until thestable version and has been sufficiently tested. 2010/12/21 Luther Goh Lu Feng elf...@yahoo.com I have started using web2py a few months ago and I have noticed that some of the releases might actually be far from stable. Take for instance, the 1.90 release. There were unfortunately quite a few uncaught bugs and this was followed by a flurry of bug fix releases. I understand that this is because there are not enough people testing trunk. Given that web2py is supposed to be an enterprise web framework, I wonder if it will be better if stable release versions are identified, so that existing users of web2py can do upgrades without having serious worries about breakage. Or are there some existing practices that existing web2py users have to address such issues?

Re: [web2py] Re: The stability of web2py releases
Funny, Every three to four weeks this topic of discussion comes up. Lots of the same ideas are said over and over again. Nobody has time to work on certain things like this since most of us have full time jobs that may or may not be related to web2py. What I do is if my app works with a certain version, I don't ever upgrade the web2py unless I need a brand new feature or bugfix that effects me. This has been my adaptation to the fast development cycle. Think of web2py as the gentoo of python web frameworks... its *very* fast and efficient and you get lots of new stuff often, but expect updates to break. -- Thadeus 2010/12/22 Branko Vukelić stu...@brankovukelic.com 2010/12/22 Luis Díaz diazluis2...@gmail.com: in particular whenever new versions come out ...

I think that's right, Bruno. The missing-folder logic got factored out, because
it wasn't being invoked for any server except Rocket, but it shouldn't run for
GAE. However, we still want the sys.path logic, so the fix should look more
like this:
def create_missing_folders():

Re: [web2py] Version 1.91.1 GAE deployment, mkdir error
@Bruno, Thanks for the prompt reply I found the function you specified in admin.py, following the error. This won't work, the function needs the *request* var. So if not request.env.web2py_runtime_gae: can't be put there. Also I tried putting passing *request* as argument in * create_missing_folders()* main.py where it is being called. So what I did currently is comment out the call to this function in main.py. But this doesn't seems like the right solution.

But usually after a .1 release (e.g., 1.90.1), the next few releases come in rapid succession and solely fix bugs, so within a week or so, we end up with a fairly stable .3 or .4 -- new features (and new bugs) aren't typically added until the next .1 release. It probably makes sense to think of most .1 releases more like release candidates. Anthony

Hi, Maybe the following can help (with respect to one common form from multiple tables)?: http://www.web2pyslices.com/main/slices/take_slice/102 Good luck, Carlos On Dec 20, 10:47 pm, Fabiano fabianoeng...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Villas, yes, I know this concept, I have a good background in computer science, but it doesn't fit here, as my data is not hierarchical. Anyway, thanks for the suggestion and the links, that Troels articles seems to be interesting, I will take a look on that sometime. My first e-mail was very extensive and I guess not very clear. I am sorry, I am still learning English. I will try to explain better what I am trying to do here. When you are modeling databases, you usually think of tables as some sort of classes of stuff and the records are the instances. For example, a table Car is a class of objects, the columns are its properties, like color, engine, year, model, etc. Each record on this table would represent a real car, with a specific a color, a specific year, model, etc. You think of the car properties that are relevant for your problem to select the columns you need when your are designing the tables. If instead of an inventory of objects you need a list of employees, or customer, or whatever hole that are people, you may think in properties like name, birth date, gender, etc. The thing is, usually the classes of things that you can store instances on your database are limited, you usually have one table for each class of stuff you can store and the properties of these stuff are pre-defined at design/data modeling time. In normal use, you just store new records filling the already pre-defined set of properties (columns). What I need to do is to store many different types of stuff on the same table, not limited to classes of stuff I can foresee in design phase. The properties of each record will be dynamic. This way, I may store a car class on my db and then say that the properties for this class are color, engine, model, year, etc. But on my case, I will only deal with properties which values can be finite sets (so, color is ok, year is out). You can also think of car properties as car options (when you buy a car, you have the option to choose its color) or as variations (two cars may be similar and vary only in color). These properties, or variations, or options are what my table Option was about on my first e-mail. Color is an option. OptionValue table stores possible values for each option. Like, for color, you may have values like blue, gray and white. On the same db I may have a class of chairs, with option material with values wood and metal. I may have an employee class with options gender and department and its possible values, I may have pies, cakes, cars, people or whatever, just assigning some properties to each of them and possible properties values.. Each of these class may have an arbitrary number of properties, including none. In this design, instead of having a list of properties applicable for each class (stuff) I will list option *values* for each, and not options for each. This way, I may have an option color on my db with lots of color values stored. But when I am creating a class of stuff Apple, instead of assign a color property to it, I will assign only the available color options for it, red and green. So, despite having many more colors in my database, for apples I will have only these two, red and green. red and green values refers to the same option, which is color, so I can derive the options for each class from the list of available option values. If I had values blue, green, yellow, small, big for a class, I would derive that the options for this class are color and size for example. I think the database design is sound for what I need. My main doubts now are more like how to use this database under web2py and have an easy interface to the user that will input these stuff on the database. As there are a lot of relations, I don't want the user to insert values on each table independently and then link them later. When he is editing a class of stuff, I want a form that shows all options and options values for that class and a new option button which would pop up a list of option values (arranged by option names) that are not already assigned to the class, and also a text input that permits the user insert a new option and option value that is not already on the database. I think that an interface that puts all this simply and transparently together is the most complex part. For example, I'd like to have forms with transparent postback validation as I have with SQLFORM, but I'd have data from 4 or 5 tables together on the same screen looking like it is just one thing to the user.

I always say ... have to wait 1 week or 2 to becomestable ... Not become stable, but be proven stable. You release, wait for everyone to give it a go. If everyone is happy, then it's considered stable, and move to stable box on the downloads page. If someone complains, it stays in unstable indefinitely, and a new release is made fixing the bugs. The problem is that become stable is in conflict with add new features, and the new release that fixes the bugs also gets new (and buggy) features. Linux has a similar problem, that gets addressed a couple of ways. One is that we have Linux distributions independent of (and lagging) the core kernel releases: Red Hat, Ubuntu, etc. The other, somewhat more recent, is that certain kernel releases are maintained by the core kernel developers as stable points. The web2py equivalent would be something like this. Massimo releases 1.91.1, and we (for some we) decide that that's a good feature/stability set for a stable release point. We then create a stable branch, and somebody (for some somebody--this is the catch) back-ports bug fixes to the stable branch, so we have 1.91.1.1, 1.91.1.2, etc, with *only* confirmed bug fixes, no new features, being back-ported. Meanwhile, trunk development proceeds with 1.91, 1.93, etc. Problem is, maintaining stable branches requires real work, and in this environment it means volunteer work.

As it is, bug fixes are inseparable from new features, unless individual users are prepared to do their own patching. Which happens, of course, as we saw today with dcrodjer's GAE folder-creation problem, but isn't that useful for most users. Formal support for stable branches would be a good indication of web2py's growing maturity, but somebody's got to commit the time.

Just updating the live site would be plain irresponsible, I think, even if Massimo had a clean bug-free record.

Re: [web2py] Re: The stability of web2py releases
Also, you probably need some kind of announcement to prompt testing -- there's nothing prompting people to check the nightly build (or even to know when anything substantial has been added to it). When a new .1 release (e.g., 1.91.1) is announced (usually with a list of new features), that prompts people to check it out. Maybe instead of starting with .1, start with a release candidate (e.g., 1.92.0rc or something), then spend a few days debugging before releasing a more stable .1 (so what we currently call .1 would become the RC, and what currently ends up being .3 or .4 would be .1). Essentially the same behavior as now, just slightly different labeling. That's not to say we couldn't use other improvements to the process (e.g., more systematic testing), but this might be a simple change.

When accepts() returns False, look at form.errors. It's a dict (Storage,
actually, but you can treat it as a dict) that is keyed, typically, by field
names, with error messages as values.
(accepts() will also return False before the form has been submitted, but in
that case form.errors is empty.)

[web2py] Encountering problem with a computer field
Hi,
btw, I upgraded from 1.87 to 1.91 to see if the problem would get
resolved and 1.91 is loading my pages significantly faster. Also, the
revised version of the pdf manual is greatly superior to the original.
Thank you for that.
So, I tried to get fancy and use a computer field in my model and now
I'm getting an error (serves me right for trying to be fancy).
Either I'm doing something wrong or there is a bug. If I'm doing
something wrong, I'd like to know.
the relevant entry in model is as follow:
Forums_db.define_table('Forum_poster',
Field('Alias', 'string', length=128, required=True),
Field('Alias_ordinal', 'integer', default=1),
Field('Alias_apparent', compute=lambda r: (r['Alias'] if
r['Alias_ordinal']==1 else r['Alias']+'['+str(r['Alias_ordinal'])
+']')),
Field('Email', length=128, required=True),
Field('Number_of_posts', 'integer', default=0),
Field('Banned', 'boolean', default=False))
Whenever I try to write in the DB (insert or update), I get a key
error on 'Alias_ordinal'.
The relevant parts of the error log are as follow:
Last entry pertaining to my code:
File applications\Ascent\modules\Forum_tools.py, line 140, in

[web2py] Sharing sessions and authentication
Hi there,
I need to make few apps that will share sessions.
For testing purposes, i have applications shared, app1 and app2.
In application shared, i have:
db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite')
session.connect(request, response, db = db)
(...)
in applications app1 and app2 i have:
db = DAL('sqlite://../../shared/databases/storage.sqlite')
session.connect(request, response, db = db, masterapp = 'shared')
(...)
auth.define_tables(migrate = False)
(...)
folders app1/databases and app2/databases do not have any databases,
which means they use database from shared. Did that part right :)
The funny part starts here:
If I register new user via application shared, I cannot login from
app1 nor app2, only from app shared. Once I log in application
shared, I'm logged in all three applications.
If I register new user via applicaton app1, i cannot login from
shared, but can from both app1 and app2. After loggind, the same
situation as above, I'm logged in all three applications.
I guess i won't have any headaches with this one, because application
shared will be 'hidden' and users will not register accounts using
registration form on that app. It should be enough, but that does not
solve the problem. I created another application app3, and managed
to login to all accounts which I made from app1 or app2. Could not
login to accounts from shared (just wanted to make sure I got it
right).
I don't know if this is a web2py bug or a feature, and if it is a
feature, why howto fix (if possible).
p.s. I used applications generated by framework, i edited only the
lines mentioned above.
[web2py] Re: Encountering problem with a computer field
The problem is that you have compute attribute set at table definition
so web2py tries to use it at every insert and every update. Even if in
your update you is has no knowledge of the previous Alias_ordinal
because you only updating Number_of_posts.
There are two solutions... set db.table.field.compute=... only in the
actions that need it.
I can add a try except so that web2py does not tries to compute fields
when there is not enough information. The downside is that a typo will
result in a silent failure to compute. Perhaps we should do this
anyway.

The problem is thet you have an upload field is a form that is not
connected to a database (because you are using a factory). web2py does
not know what to do with the file. You need to specify the
uploadfolder.

Hi there,
I need to make few apps that will share sessions.
For testing purposes, i have applications shared, app1 and app2.
In application shared, i have:
db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite')
session.connect(request, response, db = db)
(...)
in applications app1 and app2 i have:
db = DAL('sqlite://../../shared/databases/storage.sqlite')
session.connect(request, response, db = db, masterapp = 'shared')
(...)
auth.define_tables(migrate = False)
(...)
folders app1/databases and app2/databases do not have any databases,
which means they use database from shared. Did that part right :)
The funny part starts here:
If I register new user via application shared, I cannot login from
app1 nor app2, only from app shared. Once I log in application
shared, I'm logged in all three applications.
If I register new user via applicaton app1, i cannot login from
shared, but can from both app1 and app2. After loggind, the same
situation as above, I'm logged in all three applications.
I guess i won't have any headaches with this one, because application
shared will be 'hidden' and users will not register accounts using
registration form on that app. It should be enough, but that does not
solve the problem. I created another application app3, and managed
to login to all accounts which I made from app1 or app2. Could not
login to accounts from shared (just wanted to make sure I got it
right).
I don't know if this is a web2py bug or a feature, and if it is a
feature, why howto fix (if possible).
p.s. I used applications generated by framework, i edited only the
lines mentioned above.

Hi Massimo,
I had that in mind already. And doublechecked. No sessions in folders. I
cleared the session table using appadmin on shared.
Resulting:
Stil cannot login from app1 to account created by shared.
I just created another account in shared registration forum. Cannot
login
from app2.
You should try to reproduce, since it takes only few minutes.

Hello web2py universe, does anybody have experience with a staging setup through apache mod_auth_basic or mod_auth_digest? I want to have some beta testers run a prototype. After entering username and password they should be able to use the app just as normal with internal authentication and so on. The setup-web2py-ubuntu.sh deploy script worked like a charm :)) Then I filled in the empty /etc/apache2/httpd.conf Directory /home/www-data/web2py AuthType Basic AuthName Restricted Files AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwords Require user tester1 tester2 /Directory and the passwords file is tester1:pwd1 tester2:pwd2 Now I get a dialog for user and password. But after entering the credentials apache keeps asking again and again for them. Any ideas what I'm missing? Thank you. Regards czamb
[web2py] Re: The stability of web2py releases
In my humble opinion, the word Enterprise demands a more systematic approach to dealing with this issue. I think the simplest way is perhaps has a numbering scheme that is understood by everyone. For example, increment the third number (e.g. from 1.90.2 to 1.90.3) only for bug fixes, and increment the second number (e.g. from 1.90.3 to 1.91.0) for major releases or addition of new features.

[web2py] Re: Encountering problem with a computer field
Ah, ok.
So basically, because the computed field is stored and updated during
writes, it will get re-computed at every input (even if its
dependencies are not changed) and expects its dependencies to be
present in the input (ie, won't read the fields in the DB for missing
values).
I guess I should have figured it out that it would be pretty hard for
the Framework to extract the dependencies from the lambda expression
(well, catching the exception does work, though you are right that it
will leave possible syntax errors uncatched... tough cookie there).
In that case, I guess I'll look at virtual fields (where the value is
computed during extraction) for my needs instead.
Thanks for the insight.

The problem is that you have compute attribute set at table definition
so web2py tries to use it at every insert and every update. Even if in
your update you is has no knowledge of the previous Alias_ordinal

There are two solutions... set db.table.field.compute=... only in the
actions that need it.
I can add a try except so that web2py does not tries to compute fields
when there is not enough information. The downside is that a typo will
result in a silent failure to compute. Perhaps we should do this
anyway.

Thank you for that.
So, I tried to get fancy and use a computer field in my model and now
I'm getting an error (serves me right for trying to be fancy).
Either I'm doing something wrong or there is a bug. If I'm doing

the relevant entry in model is as follow:

Field('Number_of_posts', 'integer', default=0),
Field('Banned', 'boolean', default=False))
Whenever I try to write in the DB (insert or update), I get a key
error on 'Alias_ordinal'.
