Yes Johann, I also believe that there is something happening webfaction side and I think that they are fiddling something. It has happened before in my short experience and I am slightly weary. Your issue is probably different as in this case it was working and then stopped without any interference on my part. Thanks anyway Kind regards Michel

Thanks Massimo !!

NOOO. Do not abuse eval. there is no need.
Instead you can do:
query = db.aa.forcefield == request.vars.forcefield
if request.vars.color != 'ALL:
query = db.aa.color=request.vars.color
if request.vars.weight !='ALL':
query = db.aa.weight == request.vars.weigth
query_results = db(query).select()
It is also a little faster.

Here is my goal. I have multiple drop down forms populated with the

I then want to be able to take those values from the form and do a

select all values per given field oddly using the == query. i have to
use the db.field.All selection. I get there by using if statements,
if the variable is equal to ALL. I have come up with some workable
code but it is very ugly and uses multiple if statements and the
manual addition of an 'ALL' value in the sets. I know there has to
be a better way.
So how do I add default ALL selections to drop downs, and how can I
do a multiple db selection using those variables. Here is example
code.
##model
db.define_table('aa', Field('name'),
Field( 'color','string',label ='color'),
Field('weight','integer')

var1 = request.vars.col
var2 = request.vars.weight

wa = db(db.aa.weight==var2).select()
I want to insert one call to db here instead of the top 2 lines to
search for both variables, I am presuming using AND and also
incorporate the ALL variable if it is selected?
return dict(message=T('Hello World'),var1 = var1,var2 =
var2,ra=ra,wa=wa)
def formtry():

[web2py] Re: how to do db administration of default auth tables?
Hello, The auth tables should be visible from the db administration interface -- not from your models in design view but from the 'db' interface where you can view table contents and insert records directly into tables (in design view, you follow the database administration button just under the models heading and above the list of your model files.) That's indeed where I'm looking. something's wrong with your installation. It was a fresh 1.99.2 web2py src code, which I manually copied it over an old install. But login, registration, etc. work as expected - I just cannot see the auth tables.

[web2py] Re: Why showing a log in option inside of the admin interface
Looks like it's related to your more general problem with logins not lasting on Webfaction with uwsgi: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/web2py/N3mHxZpSh5A/l1Ck9mW6QfYJ. That part of the admin home page involves an Ajax call to check whether the web2py version is current. Because it thinks you're not logged in, the Ajax call ends up getting redirected to the login page, so the login page gets inserted in the div that's supposed to include the version check. The image in the upper left just looks like a fixed positioning of the logo that's supposed to appear on the login page (i.e., it's floating outside the div).

Re: [web2py] Re: wrapping long text lengths in grid/smartgrid
I think if you specify a much longer maxtextlength, the text will ultimately
wrap, but it may cause the column to be much wider than you want. Maybe all
the th's and td's should include column-specific classes so we can use CSS
to control the width and other attributes of each column.

[web2py] Re: SQLFORM.factory does not create the table in db, so how to query results?
When the form is submitted, each field value is returned as a variable of the response object.

[web2py] Would there be an advantage to having more discussion on Stackoverflow?
I've been using web2py for about six weeks now and am loving the supportive community. I notice that there's a strong push to focus that community discussion here on the Google group. I wonder if this has some disadvantages, though: a) It seems difficult sometimes to find previous discussions of the same issue. So I suspect people are answering the same question more than they need to sometimes. Here it seems like Stackoverflow helps to streamline the support process. b) The focus on the Google group means that the web2py name isn't popping up as often in mixed forums like Stackoverflow. I think that creates the impression that web2py has fewer users than it really does. So would there be some value in encouraging people to direct specific support questions to Stackoverflow and reserving the Google group for things like announcements, open-ended discussion, threads about resources and hosting, etc?

[web2py] Getting form via ajax/json returns JSON serialization error
When I try to access my action via myapp/statusbar/userEdit I see the
form as expected. However, when I try it at myapp/statusbar/
userEdit.json I get a JSON serialization error.
This is my controller:
def user_widget():
# return table of all users incl. their roles
output = T('No users found')
rows = db().select(db.auth_user.id, db.auth_user.username,
db.auth_membership.id, db.auth_membership.group_id,
left=db.auth_membership.on(db.auth_membership.user_id==db.auth_user.id))
if len(rows) 0:
table_rows = []
for row in rows:
table_rows.append([row.auth_user.username,
row.auth_membership.id, row.auth_membership.group_id, A(T('edit'),
_href='#', _id='edit-user-' + str(row.auth_user.id), _class='edit-
user')])
output = TABLE(THEAD(TR(TH(T('Username')), TH(T('Membership
ID')), TH(T('Group ID')), TH(T('Edit', *[TR(*myrows) for myrows in
table_rows], _id='user-widget-users-table')
script = SCRIPT('$(function() { \
$(#user-widget-users-table a.edit-
user).click(function() { \
jQuery.ajax({ \
type: POST, \
url: '+
URL(r=request,c='statusbar',f='userEdit') +', \
data: id= + $(this).attr(id),
\
success: function(msg){ \
$(#settings-
content).html(msg.html); \
$(#settings-
title).html(msg.title); \
} \
}); \
}); \
});', _language='javascript')
output.append(script)
return {'html':str(output), 'title':T('User settings')}
def userEdit():
# simplified - should return edit form a specific user later
form=SQLFORM.factory(db.auth_user,db.auth_membership)
return {'html':form, 'title':'test'}
The form contains two textfields and two selection fields and a submit
button. My statusbar/userEdit.json view ist the default one.
Any suggestions?

This is exactly the same problem I'm having with one project hosted on Fluxflex.

I don't know enough about the fluxflex server architecture to know how this would work (And they're not returning my support emails.)

[web2py] Installing under Linux
I have a problem getting web2py working in Ubuntu Linux (Lucid Lynx). Let me explain the situation... I am experimenting with a VirtualBox VM of Ubuntu. I follow the instructions in the Official web2py Book (sections: Apache setup and mod_wsgi). The VM has an address of 192.168.1.102. As per instruction, I created the /etc/apache2/sites-available/web2py Apache configuration file. Now, the book says, When you restart Apache, it should pass all the requests to web2py without going through the Rocket wsgiserver. I also followed the instructions in the section, Start as Linux Daemon. (I couldn't figure out how to start web2py as a background process, so my console was locked up when I type 'python web2py.py'.) Okay, so I've restarted Apache2. Presumably, if I enter: 192.168.1.102/welcome/default/index into the browser, it should take me to the Welcome app? Or am I being obtuse? I also tried: 192.168.1.102:8000/welcome/default/index but still cannot connect. What puzzles me is that httpd.conf in the original Apache2 installation remains unchanged (it's empty). How does Apache know to use the configuration file in sites-available? Perhaps someone can clarify this for me, please. Thanks, Richard

[web2py] grid signature
I have a controller that tailors the grid for a table - setting the fields, query, orderby and args parameters depending on the table requested. My problem is that the CSV and paginate request formats do not contain the tablename in request.args or request.vars. So I am unable to configure my grid when I get a CSV or paginate request. I could put the tablename in args but that seems a bit untidy. How does web2py know what to return from csv and paginate requests when it does not have the tablename? Is it accessible via the _signature fields? As I understand it these are the request formats used by grid: /tablename = produces initial grid /arg1/arg2/new/tablename = for add button /arg1/arg2/edit/tablename/1 = for edit button /arg1/arg2/csv?_signature=13d93655641 = for export button /arg1/arg2?page=2_signature=e2ad87f2 = for paginate button

I've got both installed and I'm converting an existing,hard coded web site that I built using both tools to see which I prefer. I started out with wordpress but I want to use web2py instead. The question is: plugin_wiki or instantpress. Finally, instantpress looks great, well done Martin, but I could certainly use some help from more documentation.

P.S. In my opinion, having a solid CMS solution running on web2py will be a huge boost to the adoption of web2py. If Instantpress is the recommended approach, perhaps it deserves a little space (at least a link) on the web2py website. It may be one of many plugin apps available, but I think CMS deserves a special mention.
[web2py] Building up a Query from nothing
Hi everybody, I'm building a page that will search for rows in a database table based on optional URL parameters, or return all rows if no parameters are given. However, I'm having trouble finding a good way to build up the query without having an existing Query object to start with. Web2py currently lets me do something like this: q = (db.person.height 5) q = q (db.person.height 6) db(q).select() But I'd like to be able to do something like this (in pseudocode): q = EmptyQuery(defaultTable=db.person) if request.vars.minheight: q = q (db.person.height request.vars.minheight) if request.vars.maxheight: q = q (db.person.height request.vars.maxheight) people = db(q).select() so that if no parameters are given, it will select all from db.person, but you can optionally filter by min and max height. Is there an easy way to do this in web2py? Thanks! Kevin
Re: [web2py] Building up a Query from nothing
queries=[] queries.append(db.table.id0) # this is the main query if arg1 == x: queries.append(db.table.field == x) if arg2 == y: queries.append(db.table.otherfield == y) # many conditions here query = reduce(lambda a,b:(ab),queries) db(query).select()
[web2py] Re: Building up a Query from nothing
A couple other notes: - I know I could start with a query that will return everything, like db.person.id 0, but I'm worried about how that will interact with queries that are optimized by an index that doesn't include the id column - An old trick when building up SQL WHERE statements as strings is to start with WHERE 1=1 (which should get optimized away by the SQL engine) and go from there. However, I couldn't find a way to make a Query that evaluated to the equivalent of 1=1.

However, I'm having trouble finding a good way to build up the query without having an existing Query object to start with. Web2py currently lets me do something like this: q = (db.person.height 5) q = q (db.person.height 6) db(q).select() But I'd like to be able to do something like this (in pseudocode): q = EmptyQuery(defaultTable=db.person) if request.vars.minheight: q = q (db.person.height request.vars.minheight) if request.vars.maxheight: q = q (db.person.height request.vars.maxheight) people = db(q).select() so that if no parameters are given, it will select all from db.person, but you can optionally filter by min and max height. Is there an easy way to do this in web2py? Thanks! Kevin
[web2py] Problem with SQLFORM
I want to add an upload form to a page (allow users to add

use an upload field (instead of text) however I'm getting the
following error which doesn't really makes sense :

'accepted')
This is the code :
@auth.requires_login()
def show():
project = db(db.project.id==request.args(0)).select().first()
form = SQLFORM(db.file)
form.project = project.id
if form.process().accepted:
session.flash = 'form accepted'
return dict(project=project, form=form)
Can't figure out what I'm missing, this should be quite straight

[web2py] Re: Form output format
Hi miroslavgojic: To see html and other things like css, javascript I recomend you use firebug (a firefox addon) or similar in chrome (getfirebug.com) Other firefox addon (only useful to see html only) is: view source chart. Both firebug and view source chart can be found in addons.mozilla.com To change the table of the form (generated) please see this (from the book:[SQLForm Chapter] http://www.web2py.com/book/default/chapter/07?search=form+style): formstyle determines the style to be used when serializing the form in html. It can be table3cols (default), table2cols (one row for label and comment, and one row for input), ul (makes an unordered list of input fields), divs (represents the form using css friendly divs, for arbitrary customization). formstyle can also be a function that takes (record_id, field_label, field_widget, field_comment) as attributes and returns a TR() object.

[web2py] Re: manual file upload using SQLFORM.factory
Hello Alex,
Two things I've found when manually uploading via SQLFORM.factory:
1) You need to specify a table_name='...' to avoid the
no_table_newfilename.extension issue like this:
form = SQLFORM.factory(...Field definitions...,
table_name='some_table_name')
2) Additionally you must specify an uploadfolder in your upload Field
definition similar to this:
form = SQLFORM.factory(...,
Field('invoice_logo', type='upload',
uploadfolder=os.path.join(request.folder,'static/uploads/')),
..., table_name='whatever_you_like')
**NOTE** 'static/uploads' is just an example, you can upload to
wherever it will be appropriate.
In this case the newly uploaded and renamed file to
your_application's_dir/static/uploads/your_new_filename_here
One gotcha to look out for following your field name as an example
without the quotation marks:
In your form.accepts(...):
request.vars.invoice_logo will contain the original filename of your
upload whereas
form.vars.invoice_logo_newfilename will contain the newly renamed
file like yourtablename.9203842903.thaoeu09gu023hgda3p.ext
No need to call store() directly as SQLFORM.factory will take care of
that for you.
I hope that this helps you.

I believe the community would be better served by using Stackoverflow for QA and using the newsgroups for non QA freeform discussions/ news. I think this would seperate and emphasize the highly reusable information, QA, from the often transient/limited use information/ discussion. There is alot of activity on this newsgroup, which can make it challenging to find answers to previously asked questions... signal to noise mismatch.

I wonder if this has some disadvantages, though: a) It seems difficult sometimes to find previous discussions of the same issue. So I suspect people are answering the same question more than they need to sometimes. Here it seems like Stackoverflow helps to streamline the support process. b) The focus on the Google group means that the web2py name isn't popping up as often in mixed forums like Stackoverflow. I think that creates the impression that web2py has fewer users than it really does. So would there be some value in encouraging people to direct specific support questions to Stackoverflow and reserving the Google group for things like announcements, open-ended discussion, threads about resources and hosting, etc?

[web2py] Re: criticism of web2py
I like web2py. I think it's the best web framework out there... Let me explain where I'm coming from. My first experience as a web developer was with Smalltalk/Seaside in 2007. It came highly recommended to me by a friend. He told me that Seaside was very powerful, very flexible, and most importantly, really easy to learn. I value productivity and ease of use above all else when it comes to software development. I don't care about ideology or the ultimate in power and performance. My Seaside project was completed in record time. I was a happy camper. My attitude is definitely non-geek-like. I am not a geek. I only care about getting the job done in the shortest time, with the least effort and the least pain. This has been my guiding principle over a 20-year career in IT (ranging from Fortran to C, from mainframe to PC). A year ago, I took a whack at Django, but I did not like it. I also tried Java-based Wicket. But neither passed the acid test of being really easy to learn and use. When I came across web2py a couple of months ago, I was utterly astonished. For a newbie, it's fall-off-the-log easy to pick up. That's important to me. And being easy to use doesn't mean that it's lacking in power. I can be phenomenally productive with web2py. My conclusion is that web2py is actually easier than Seaside (heresy!). It's also easier than Django, and it's definitely much easier than Wicket. I can't understand why programmers don't want the easiest tools. I prefer to enjoy my life, take it easy, rather than expose myself to aggravation and headache, regardless of how much power you gain. But that's just me. Richard On Oct 5, 10:07 am, Farsheed Ashouri farsheed.asho...@gmail.com wrote: i bet they event didn't create a simple site with Web2py. Don't trust them. Just for test, use Django for a week and you'll be back to Web2py soon than we expected and with headaches!! Every day, I am creating a new website for my clients. When I was using Django, just initial setup took me hours. I am not saying other frameworks are not smart. Web2Py is just better.
