Re: [web2py] Many-to-many relations with CRUD Insert
Yes, thats clear. Until now i use a program, which is based on INFORMIXDB with Python und CGI. In this program (respectively programs) i do exactly that what you described above in your mail. It is not difficult to write these programs but it is slow and boring. But now i know web2py and i wanted to use this tool and all of its benefits to create more elegant forms and views. So my Question is again: Is there any method to create an INPUT-Form (not for output, SELECT is easy!) with CRUD or SQLFORM for the many-to-many Relation book-author-verb? Or more precisely: is it possible to make a form with CRUD or SQLFORM, which includes all fields of book and a listbox with autors, so that i can select one or more authors and then klick the *only *submit-button of the form to insert the book and the corresponding ids in table verb? I think the problem is that we have 2 tables for CRUD/SQLFORM, which are not directly connected via foreign keys (namely book and author).
[web2py] Apache/mod_wsgi: Exposing individual web2py apps alongside other non-web2py services
Hello, I have an Apache server with mod_wsgi, and I would like to host web2py alongside a variety of other things. For example: http://example.com/ hosts a PHP website. Might link to things like / about.php, /users/view.php, etc http://example.com/files a standard Apache listing of files in a directory http://example.com/myapp1 a web2py application named myapp1 http://example.com/myapp2 a web2py application named myapp2 The Apache/mod_wsgi deployment example in the web2py book uses: WSGIScriptAlias / /users/www-data/web2py/wsgihandler.py which effectively causes web2py to take over the root of the URL hierarchy. In that case, http://example.com/myapp1 http://example.com/myapp2 work as expected, but you've locked yourself out of serving any non- web2py content on the server. My workaround was to do this: WSGIScriptAlias /web2py /users/www-data/web2py/wsgihandler.py to get web2py content namespaced under /web2py, and then use mod_rewrite to create nicer URLs into the /web2py location; e.g.: RewriteRule ^/myapp1(/.*)?$ /web2py/myapp1$1 [PT,L] However, now the app is accessible through two URLs: http://example.com/myapp1 or http://example.com/web2py/myapp1. Moreover, any of my web2py applications are accessible via /web2py/[appname] even if I only want to expose a select few applications on a particular server. I can restrict which applications are accessible via something like: Location /web2py Order Allow,Deny Deny from all /Location and then explicitly allow only those apps I want to expose. Then I can (sort of) get rid of the redundant /web2py/[appname] URL with something like: RewriteRule ^/web2py/myapp1 /myapp1 [R,L] but now it seems like we've gone to a lot of work to accomplish a fairly simple task. Is anyone aware of a cleaner way to expose one or a few web2py apps without lettings web2py take over the entire root URL namespace? Thanks, Kevin

In the 'verb' table you can use the type 'reference' for 'book' and
'list:reference' for authors (with the multiple-option). Then you can have
a form using crud for input where you can select the book and the list of
authors.
See http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/6?search=list%3Areference
.
I am working with a biliometric database and I have inserted constraints on
database level to prevent the same combination of appearing in the linking
table ('verb' in your case). I am working with Postgresql and found that
the web2py-communications with the database breaks when this constraint
complains. So I had to build in code to check for the existence of that
combination of fields in the table before inserting it.

Maybe you can do new_query = eval(q) to create the normal db call

db.contrib.contributions is a Field object that is part of the contrib
table -- you cannot (and do not want to) replace it. Perhaps you're trying
to set the field's widget:
db.contrib.contributions.widget = advanced_editor
This can also be done in the field's initial definition:

[web2py] UnicodeEncodeError on GAE
Hi! I'm web2py and python newbie. I like web2py! But recently I have a
problem on GAE.
I encounterd UnicodeEncodeError on GAE when I update a field value of
one table on appadmin.
The table has a list:string field.
I suspect that cause is list:string field.
File gluon\html.py, line 1585, in _postprocessing
_value = str(self['_value'])
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position
0-2: ordinal not in range(128)
web2py version is 1.99.4
I found similar case. But it seems not to match with my problem.
http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/a14bb4b530e3767e
I confirmed type(self['_value']).
in case of string, it is 'str'.
in case of list:stirng, it is 'unicode'.
I tried below but don't go good.
(dev_appserver OK. GAE NG)
if isinstance(self['_value'],unicode):
_value = self['_value'].encode('utf-8')
else:
_value = str(self['_value'])
I don't know how to fix this...
(I can't see detail of error of ticket on GAE Data viewer...
only like this
dp0 S'output' p1 Stype 'exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError' 'ascii'

Same problem -- in db(query), query must be a Query object, but in your
case it is just a string. You would have to do something like
db(eval(query)), but that would be a security risk because you don't know
what is in query. Instead, it's probably safer to parse the query itself
and look for the table and id in the query -- confirm the table exists in
db, and then build the actual query yourself.

Re: [web2py] Many-to-many relations with CRUD Insert
I have also constraints on database level, but this is necessary for normal logical consistency of the database model. The problem is for me again - even if i use that reference or list.reference - that i cannot have * ONLY* these fields book.title author.name in my form on the screen and *only one submit-Button*, because CRUD accepts only one table and so there were 2 submit-buttons and 2 CRUD.create forms. As i said i want to insert the book-data (for simplicity here the title) without clicking the submit button, then select some author (better: one or more authors), then click submit, and the web2py-System must then insert the book, look for the new book-id and insert this book-id together with the author-id in the connection-table verb. On a very low-level programming view with CGI, Python and informix (or just MySQL) this can be done without great effort, but you have to write too much code. That is the reason why i want to have a simple form, created by CRUD or SQLFORM. By the way, i searched the Newsgroup here and i did'nt find anyone, who had this same problem. I'm wondering about that, because it is a standard situation in many commercial databases: you have producers and articles, but the connection between the two ist stored in a new table- say prod_art in form of a tupel (producer_id, article_id). How to put Producer-, Article-Data and informations about who produces which article (Table prod_art) in only one FORM with only ONE Submit Button? P.S. Naturally i have one solution, but i think it is a dirty one: 1. With CRUD make 2 INSERT-Forms for tables author and book. 2. If FORM for the book is accepted, and we therefor know the new book_id. 3. go to the NEXTURL, i.e. the CRUD.create - FORM for the table verb 4. In the Controller, before accepting the form, let verb.book_id = book_id from step 2. 5. Choose an author from the table verb. Thanks to this CRUD-Feature! 6. Insert verb. Thats all, but it is too complicated for Users, wo want to insert thousends of Books: 2 Screen, 2 Submit-Buttons, switching between the screens. As in said, i build a very user-friendly solution with CGI, but i think, it must be done also with web2py
[web2py] Re: Many-to-many relations with CRUD Insert
This might give you some
ideas:
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/7#One-form-for-multiple-tables.
I suppose you would have to loop through the list of submitted authors to
insert multiple records into the verb table.

The FORM looks like this: form=SQLFORM.factory(db.book, db.verb.anr) if form.process().accepted: id = db.book.insert(**db.book._filter_fields(form.vars)) db.commit() booknumber = id authornumber = form.vars.anr id = db.verb.insert(bnr=booknumber,anr=authornumber) db.commit() response.flash='Bingo!'

[web2py] Working XMLRPC code failing on new web2py version ?...
Hi, I have this very old web2py app that has been working 24/7 since early 2008... One instance runs on my phone (Nokia N900, a Linux device), another on my home server (also Linux). The mobile instance frequently pushes database records to the server instance, using XMLRPC, by calling the relevant method on the remote, something like : client = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy(target+'/current/handle', allow_none=True) rows = db(db.current.id0).select() status, response.flash = client.accept(rows.colnames, rows.response) This has been running flawlessly for four years, although both ends have sometimes been upgraded : * the mobile instance runs a semi-recent version of web2py (1.94.5) on an old version of Python (2.5.4) * the server instance does the opposite (Python 2.7 and web2py 1.56.1 !) * so this is a fairly change-resistant combination so far... However, today I tried the latest web2py (1.99.4), because I wanted to host the mobile instance on an Android phone. After fighting my way through Android and SL4A to the underlying Linux core, I got it to run nicely, except for that push code above, which fails on the third line with : TypeError: cannot marshal type 'datetime.date' objects Now, obviously, one of the columns in rows.response contains a datetime.date value. But why is this suddenly a problem ? I moved the whole thing to a Windows box (with Python 2.6.5) and got the same result. Could this be caused by the newer version of web2py ? Where to start looking ? Thanks for any ideas, fp

Re: [web2py] how to remove duplicate tables in smartgrid?
My problem is similar:
At first there is the table of persons auth_user with some additional
fields like a phone number and so on.
Now one persons (A) writes something concerning another person (B).
Let's sove it with a table
db.define_table('report',

Field('about_person', 'reference auth_user'),
Field('text'),
singular='REPORT',
plural='REPORTS')

But the first button is not necessary, because the from_user is the current
user.
*Is it possible to remove (only) the first button?*
I have tried the parameter links to create my own button. It works, but
the two REPORTS remain.
links_in_grid = True removes every button.
Maybe it would be better if links_in_grid switches off only the default
buttons?
If somebody wants to try it - this is my controller:
def report():
grid = SQLFORM.smartgrid(db.auth_user,
linked_tables=['report'],
user_signature = False)
return locals()
By the way: there is always the plural form - what is the condition to
display the singular form?

[web2py] Need help with drag-n-drop using jQuery
I'm prototyping a scheduling board with drivers in the columns and their deliveries in the rows to prove that I can reassign deliveries using drag-n-drop under web2py. I have developed a matrix of movable cells that I based on Massimo's Excel Spreadsheet module. I can drag-n-drop cells just fine, but the performance is hideous. The drop takes 10 seconds typically. I must be missing some configuration item or something; I just can't make the thing work with a speed that will interest my boss. Can anyone suggest where I might look to make things snappy? My code is simple and short ( 200 LOC). Might it have anything to do with the ram-cache? I appreciate any help you can offer to get me moving again (and to escape being forced to develop our board on Alpha5 or Servoy instead). Thanks in advance.

I have not found any good updated base facebook web2py apps to start from. A lot of the FB python code I have found applies to Django or assumes you will be using google app engine which I am not. I have created modules and tried 3 versions of a facebook.py file I have found 1) https://github.com/pythonforfacebook/facebook-sdk 2) The order code from the hellowfacebook web2py example 3) https://github.com/facebook/fbconsole I have included the Javascript SDK in my web2py view found here. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/ Since I understand it is best to set and grab cookies and initiate a login and session with the JS SDK I also tried mods of recommend code here but can't get it to work either. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2727118/getting-facebook-oauth-access-token-through-python-sdk-does-not-seem-to-be-worki I am still new to web2py so maybe I have something in the wrong place or have not declared or imported things properly. in my default.py I can import any facebook module code I use with import facebook But where do I put this code that actually calls the defs and objects? in my controller? another module or view? cookie = facebook.get_user_from_cookie(self.request.cookies, FACEBOOK_APP_ID, FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET) graph = facebook.GraphAPI(cookie[access_token]) current_user = graph.get_object(me) So my questions are... 1) Is there a base application with up-to-date code I can use to create a FB canvas or tab page app that creates a link for a user to login, let's me grab the cookie/access token from the JS SDK and pull some info from the FB graph api. 2) which python FB classes or API or SDK should I use and import to best use with web2py. 3) where is the best place to place the code that calls the facebook class defs and methods?

[web2py] Re: Python / web2py or.... the learning path?
There are indeed a *lot* of PHP tutorials and articles out there. Most of them are of little value in general, or even misleading readers into bad practices (as referenced by Christian Heilmann in a recent post on Smashing Magazinehttp://www.smashingmagazine.com/2011/12/27/hitting-the-ground-running-along-with-faceplant/). However, most of the *best *PHP sources will teach you web-development techniques that you can do in Python (or more precisely, are already easy for you to implement in web2py). As a developer who is also growing in my understanding of the best practices, I recommend you look around as much as you can for great articles on best practices. I have learned a lot from the following places: - A List Apart http://www.alistapart.com/ - I would *start off here*. In general, their articles do a great job of establishing practices you want to emulate. - Smashing Magazine http://www.smashingmagazine.com/ - They post one article a day, and the quality varies significantly, so be vigilant. Most articles focus on front-end and trending topics in web design. - Smashing Network http://network.smashingmagazine.com/ - This is a list of recent web-related blog posts curated by the Smashing team. The quality varies even more, but there is enough there to scan through for value. - This Google Group - You will learn *so much* from the talented people here. - Paul Irish http://paulirish.com/ and his Google+ pagehttps://plus.google.com/113127438179392830442/posts- Paul is a young developer with a passion for making the web better by sharing information. Most of what he shares is front-end specific, but makes http://paulirish.com/2011/web-browser-frontend-and-standards-feeds-to-follow/life http://html5boilerplate.com/easierhttp://paulirish.com/2008/conditional-stylesheets-vs-css-hacks-answer-neither/ . - Christian Heilmann http://christianheilmann.com/ - archives just about every talk he gives on various web topics. This list isn't as exhaustive. But I would also like to put out a request for other places to look for web development. Being relatively new to Python and the server-side myself, I don't have a go-to list for that side. Anyone else have ideas?

[web2py] Re: Python / web2py or.... the learning path?
I find the Widnows/Mac Web2py download to be one of the easiest ways to get started and to learn to program. You will thank yourself later by learning Python instead of PHP. Python is easy to learn because it is pretty well thought-out, the syntax is clean and easy to read, there is not a lot of extraneous crud, etc. With the Windows or Mac download of Web2py, you can be programming in minutes using either a text editor or the built-in text editor. There is enough sample code that you will be able to figure out how to write your own in a short period of time after observing the existing code. The Web2py Book includes a brief, easy-to follow intro to Python: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/2 Then, just follow the Overview: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/3

[web2py] how to download file from within a cid target
I'm trying to generate a pdf with the bundled pdf generator (fypdf)
from withing a .load file that is loaded into a div.
Outside the cid div (i.e. extension .html) the download works fine
but from within the .load, the contents get rendered into the cid
target, never downloading to the user.
How can i download a generated file from within a cid ?
print request.function+request.extension:,
request.function+.+request.extension
response.headers['Content-Type']='application/pdf'
#tmp_pdf = f.render('invoice.pdf', dest='S')
attachment = 'attachment;filename=invoice.pdf'
response.headers['Content-Disposition'] = attachment
response.extension ='pdf'
#response.cid =''
#response.ajax = False
content = f.render('invoice.pdf', dest='S')
return f.render('invoice.pdf', dest='S')#response.stream(content)
Another similar problem is blog headlines that are generated from a
feedburner javascript within a .load / cid and never render, while
they render perfectly outside (.html). Maybe these two problems are
linked.

[web2py] Re: get user id on mobile app after login to web2py
The cookies was an easy and strait forward implementation. Adding response.cookies['myCookie'] = 'myData' in the web2py default controller (that the user will visit once logged in) and using the CookieManager Class on the app side provided a simple solution. Thanks, Yuval On Jan 16, 8:10 pm, Bruno Rocha rochacbr...@gmail.com wrote: You can redirect the user after login to a new url and post user ID as args or vars, so in client side I think you can take it from location. Or you can set a input hidden with the value and read it with jquery, or the cookie.

[web2py] dynamic SQLForm.factory from query
Dear Everyone,
I am still plugging away on web2py and loving it more and more the
better I understand python.
I have a page where a large list is generated from a database query.
Next to each item from the list, I would like to put the ability to
add a comment.
I did this statically by creating X number of forms for X number of
list items displayed on the page, so I know the concept is possible.
Now, I want to make it dynamic. I searched this group, and all over
the web for dynamic form web2py, multiple form web2py, etc. and
all iterations thereof.
I did find these threads:
http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/1f577d46bd535433
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/web2py/nE_-yhDG-3o
The second one seemed closer to what I'm trying to do, but for now, my
problem is much simpler. I have one table, one query, and just a
variable number of fields. I tried every syntax I could muster
blindly trying to pass in a list of fields to SQLFORM or
SQLFORM.factory.
Below is my code, chopped of the unimportant bits for clarity:
def multi_comment():
records=db(myquery).select()
fields=[]
counter=1
for i in records:
fields.append(Field('note','text'))
fields.append(Field('div_id', default=str(counter)))
counter=counter+1
pass
form=SQLFORM.factory(*fields)
return dict(form=form, fields=fields)
I am getting only one field in my form with a div_id of 1. I know
there has to be a simple way to do this, I am just not skilled enough
to do it.
Any suggestions? Also, any help with implementing the db insert after
the form has been processed would be wonderful!
Thank you in advance!

[web2py] MSSQL How to access tables which not created by web2py
Hi all,
In db.py, I successful create a connect to MSSQL and create a new
table in mydb database like below.
db.py
msdb = DAL('mssql://user:passwd@sqlserver/mydb')
msdb.define_table('test1',Field('firstname'),Field('surname'))
Now in mydb, I got two tables test which already exists and test1
which web2py just created.
In default.py, I tried to return all the tables in mydb
def mssql():
crud = Crud(msdb)
# Try to return all the tables
a = crud.tables()
return dict(a=a)
But in view mssql.html {{=a}}
only the test1 shows.
So my questions is that, If I want to query/update the test table
which not created by web2py, how should I do?
Do I need import pyodbc and create a connect and query again? Many
thanks.
Re: [web2py] MSSQL How to access tables which not created by web2py
You need to map the existent table and set migrate=False, also you will
need to specify which field is the 'id' or primary keys, and for all fields
you need to tell the datatype.
msdb.define_table(
'test',
FIeld('cod', 'id'),
Field('field1', datatype),
Field('field2', datatype),
migrate=False
)
look here:

[web2py] Re: dynamic SQLForm.factory from query
Did you have a look at the wiki example in the web2py book:
http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/3#A-wiki ?
Instead of a 'page' table you have the table from which you retrieve
the list and, just like in the example, a table to store the comments.
page_id in your case becomes list_id.
I don't see why you need the fields and counter variable. I would move
the for loop to the view and do something like:
{{for row in rows:}}
tr
td{{=row.field_name}}/td
td{{=A('Add comment',_href=URL('addComment',args=row.id))}}/td
/tr
{{pass}}
.. and in the addComment function something like:
db.comment.list_id.default=request.args(0)
form=crud.create(table=db.comment)
I hope this helps you solve the problem.
Kind regards,
Annet
