[web2py] Problems with custom registration form

doesn't ever get processed. Can anyone see what's wrong.

[web2py] Requiring password on registration
The default login form does not require a password to be entered when registering. Is this intentional? Seems a funny default. I can't figure out how to require a password. I added db.auth_user.password.requires = IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message=auth.messages. is_empty) and removed the default='' from the password fields, but it still lets me register without any password... --
[web2py] Re: MARKMIN change of behavior
Hmm, unless you mention what the 'better behaviour' is, it is difficult to agree as this change does result in broken content.

The other one is this: Markmin:#Head phead/p Markdown: #Head h1head/h1 Many users started using Markmin as a substitute to Markdown. In fact my company now uses both and the staff have to remember any nit-picking differences like this.

I think the trouble is that 'id' is never updated, so it is not available

I don't think I can do this when the record is first created, since an
'id' has not been assigned.
I want to eventually add another field that depends on 'id' that is why
I'm doing this.
I could use a virtual field I think...

According to the ticket, the problem is with your janrain.key file. The code does a split on : and expects two values -- if it's complaining about too many values to unpack, you must have more than one colon in the string in that file. The file contents should look like: [domain]:[API key] Note, the domain is the name that comes before rpxnow.com (e.g., if your application domain is mysite.rpxnow.com, then the domain in the file should simply be mysite).

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py 2.0 almost done
Hi Massimo, Mobile browser on mobile phones can work in mobile mode or in desktop mode. If you are in desktop mode, without that line, you cannot see the menu because it's faded away. And you cannot click, so the menu is faded and not clickable! In a desktop instead, when a windowed browser has a resolution less than responsive threshold, the menu is yes visible, but it's resize the page at each mouse hovering and makes the menu unusable. So, if you are in a browser with a sufficient resolution, you can see the standard dropdown, when you are on a mobile browser with a narrow resolution but in desktop mode, you can see a flat menu. This restores the default bootstrap behaviour for colllapsible dropdowns.

In order to fix an issue I had to introduce a slight change of behavior and I am not sure what is the best way to handle it. If you login using a third party service (for example janrain using facebook) and the service sends info about you, if web2py has corresponding fields in auth_user, it stores them. If you edit your profile, logout, change your facebook profile, login again using janrain, should web2py keep the current local profile or update it? The bug report suggested that web2oy should always give preference to the local profile. I changed web2py accordingly. In practice this change will probably not affect anybody because none of the services sends any information stored by auth_user. Yet, please check it.

[web2py] Re: Requiring password on registration
Anthony's correct- this is in Auth, but is not being respected: settings.password_min_length = 4 I just created a fresh app using trunk, and when I try to register without a password, I get a too short error message on the password field. What version of web2py are you using? Can we see your Auth related code? Or maybe you can pack and attach a simple app that exhibits the behavior. Massimo - For security reason it will not be accepted for logging anyway. - Not sure what you meant but it registered me and logged me in with an empty pass. By default, when you first register, you are automatically logged in upon registration (this can be disabled). I think Massimo meant that subsequently you will not be able to continue to login with an empty password. I also tried inserting: db.auth_user.password.requires.insert(0,IS_LENGTH(minsize=5)) What happens whey you try that -- does it generate an error, or simply allow you to register without a password?

[web2py] Re: Requiring password on registration
Looks like a bug in the wizard: db.auth_user.password.requires = CRYPT(key=auth.settings.hmac_key) should be: db.auth_user.password.requires = CRYPT(key=auth.settings.hmac_key,min_length =4) Actually, maybe the wizard should simply use auth.define_tables() instead of manually creating the auth_user table -- would be easier to keep the wizard consistent with standard apps.

What version of web2py are you using? Can we see your Auth related code? Or maybe you can pack and attach a simple app that exhibits the behavior. Massimo - For security reason it will not be accepted for logging anyway. - Not sure what you meant but it registered me and logged me in with an empty pass. By default, when you first register, you are automatically logged in upon registration (this can be disabled). I think Massimo meant that subsequently you will not be able to continue to login with an empty password. I also tried inserting: db.auth_user.password.requires.insert(0,IS_LENGTH(minsize=5)) What happens whey you try that -- does it generate an error, or simply allow you to register without a password?

[web2py] Re: Requiring password on registration
Note also that it DOES allow logging in with no password subsequent to the registration. Right, it looks like login will allow no password if password length is enforced only by CRYPT (it actually overrides the CRYPT min_length attribute). I don't think it will override IS_STRONG or IS_LENGTH, though. Adding the requires.insert(0,IS_LENGTH(minsize=5)) has no effect. I'm not able to unpack/install the app you attached (seems to be corrupted), but when I insert IS_LENGTH in my own test app as you have above, it works fine. Would have to see your code to figure out what's wrong. Anthony --

I did assume that the old validator *would still fire,* and not be replaced with just my validator.- but used WITH my validator. db.auth_user.username.requires = [list, of, validators] db.auth_user.username.requires = IS_MATCH(...) The above replaces a list with a single validator. In Python, if you assign a new value to an object that was a list, it does not get appended to the list -- it replaces the list (as it would replace any other type of object). If you want to mutate an existing list, you have to use .insert(), .append(), .extend(), +, etc., which is what Massimo originally instructed. Also, the book section on customizing Auth says the following: If you add a field called username, it will be used in place of email for login. If you do, you will need to add a validator as well: 1. auth_table.username.requires = IS_NOT_IN_DB(db, auth_table.username) I suppose we could add a sterner warning, though. Perhaps we should force an IS_NOT_IN_DB validator on username/email when registration is processed in case there isn't one. Anthony --

I never got this to work, as I mentioned above auth.define_tables(username=True) db.auth_user.username.requires.insert(0,IS_MATCH([a-z].*)) Is that the exact code, with nothing coming between the auth = Auth(...) line (not shown above) and the auth.define_tables() line, and nothing coming between the above two lines? I ask because when auth.define_tables() creates the auth_user table, the username field gets a list of validators, not a tuple. Somewhere in your code, it's getting a tuple of validators. Anthony --
