[web2py] looking for suggestions - large number of selections
I anticipate a huge number of entries in a person table and expect users
find it difficult to do two things:
* selecting or viewing multiple entries
* adding a new entry on the fly
The initial person table design used a traditional mother/father set-up
but same-sex parent concept made this obsolete.
db.define_table('person'
,Field('name')
,Field('birth_date')
,Field('parent', 'list:reference person'))
I'm looking for a convenient way to add a person's parent where they can
select the person's parents (if they're already in the list) or add one
if they're not.
The way multiple.widgets is rendered now, the parents are not easily
seen unless the user scrolls through the list.
[web2py] question about preferred represenation and filtering
I have a self-referencing table [1] with a defined format for
representing a record in this fashion: Lastname, Firstname
[-mm-dd]. In the father field, I expect it to display the drop-down
list of persons as defined in format, but it doesn't unless I define it
explicitly (like in the mother field).
Second, I tried dbset filter for the selection list of the father and
mother fields but I still get the whole table instead.
I'm trying this out on v1.99.2. What am I doing wrong here?
TIA

[web2py] field labels in crud search
I noticed while using crud search results that web2py doesn't use labels defined in tables as headers. Of course, headers can be defined in crud but wouldn't it be better if by default it uses the labels already defined with the table instead of field names?
[web2py] PowerGrid and reference fields
When I list a table with a reference field, it shows up as an index key. I was expecting it to show up as usual, with the default record representation of the referenced table. It does show up correctly inside a modal window, after hitting an action button (i.e. Details), though. I tried setting a .representation for the said field, but that didn't seem to change anything. Also, I wish Bruno would consider adding an option for plugin_PowerGrid.CallBack to return only readable fields. /r Nik

I think you can use headers=[['f_name',str(T('Name'))]
This works. Thanks.
The highlight can be easuly implemented with JavaScript and CSS.
The idea was that the trigger was the data, if e.g. a rows' sum is 0 it
would be highlighted.

[web2py] Re: compute fields on update
I just tested this on v1.97.1 , and confirm that from the shell the
record doesn't appear to be updated even after a db.commit(). However,
using appadmin to check the database, the records were actually are
updated.
But if do it like this:
for i in db(db.item.id0).select(): i.quantity, i.unit_price,
i.total_price
instead of like:
items =db(db.item.id0).select()
for i in items: i.quantity, i.unit_price, i.total_price
You will see the record values are immediately updated.
So, I think this is a bug unless I'm very much mistaken.

Hello everybody,
I惴 trying to create a page with a list of items. On every row a item is
shown and every row has an Edit button. Instead of going to a new page to
edit the record I惴 trying to use modal window via AJAX to edit the record.
Mmodal plugin gets me quite close to a solution, but the problem is that
mmodal is great for one link on the page. I惴 going to need many links to
the
same form but different attributes. With mmodal I have to create a new
different form for every row.
So far I have edited the example for mmdaol to look like this:
{{a=PluginMModal(title=T('Edit record'),content=form_edit,**
close='close',width=40,height=**82)}}
{{=a}}
{{=a.link(T('Edit record'))}}
So instead of a text in content I惴 sending a form that is created in the
controller.
Ideal would be that in the a.link I could define what record I悲 like to
edit.
Any ideas how to achieve this?
Kenneth

[web2py] fields and field_labels argument in crud.seach
This example from the epydoc doesn't work:
form, results = crud.search(db.test,
queries = ['equals', 'not equal', 'contains'],
query_labels={'equals':'Equals',
'not equal':'Not equal'},
fields = [db.test.id, db.test.children],
field_labels = {'id':'ID','children':'Children'},
zero='Please choose',
query = (db.test.id 0)(db.test.id != 3) )
However, it will work if I change the fields argument to:
fields = ['id', 'children']
In the book though the latter convention is but I often refer to epydoc
when I'm offline.
I also couldn't get the field_labels to show up with crud.search as
above.
[web2py] one form for multiple tables - updating record
I've read the section about one form for multiple tables and following the example created my function that updates four tables: def register(): form=SQLFORM.factory(db.person, db.affiliation, db.address, db.card) if form.accepts(request.vars): id = db.person.insert(**db.person._filter_fields(form.vars)) form.vars.person=id id = db.affiliation.insert(**db.affiliation._filter_fields(form.vars)) id = db.address.insert(**db.address._filter_fields(form.vars)) id = db.card.insert(**db.card._filter_fields(form.vars)) return dict(form=form) That works fine.

[web2py] Re: one form for multiple tables - updating record
Thanks for looking Kenneth.
Should it be a record id? From the book (and epydocs):
record = db.person(request.args(0))
form = SQLFORM(db.person, record)
where record is a Row object and it works correctly. I tried your
suggestion to pass an id but got a KeyError:'name' error.
Sorry for being a bit thick here, but correct me if I'm wrong, but the
one form for multiple tables section in the book uses
SQLFORM.factory which, I now realize, doesn't accept a record
argument. Or does it?

The problem is that your are giving SQLFORM a row object as you should

record = db.person(request.args(0)) creates a row object so instead o:

try:

[web2py] headers argument behavior in v1.97.1
While using crud, I sometimes define headers for *some* fields listed in

an error if I do not define the headers for *all* fields listed in the

For example, the following code no longer works
rows=crud.select(db.address
,query=((db.address.owner_is==address_owner)
(db.address.owner_is_person==address_owner_is_person))
,fields=['address.id'
,'address.line_1'
,'address.is_type'
,'address.country']
,headers={'address.id':'#'
,'address.line_1':'Street address'
,'address.country':'Country'})
until I add a header for address.is_type, too.
Is this a bug or a new feature?

In prior versions, web2py will not complain about missing label and
just use the field name (or label in table definition) instead. I
suppose this new behavior is the right way of doing it and I should
just adjust the code accordingly, but IMO the old behavior handles the
issue more elegantly.

Clarification regarding the bio field with requires. It does let me proceed to the next step, but will not be allowed to submit the data after validation unless i meet the requires statement. A bit confusing since some fields will allow me to move to next step. One more thing, is there going to be an equivalent for SQLFORM.factory?

What is the purpose of the above line? form.vars.card_number should already

Ross, you're right. That's how I'm using it. I went back to re-check

it's only in jqgrid that it's not showing up, it works correctly with
appadmin
In the model:

,4:'Verified'
}
...
Field('member_status','integer',default=0)
...
db.auth_user.member_status\
.requires=IS_IN_SET(settings.member_status,zero=None,sort=False)
If I don't define the representation, it doesn't use the hard coded
dictionary options. After I define the representation, it still
doesn't show up in jQuery.
I'm using version 1.94.6. What version are you using?

Then when the field is represented, it should use the values from dictionary

hope this helps, as it's worked for me pretty well so far.

\d{1}?$') or Null, and it works! The idea, is that every record in the
administrative table comes with the regex needed to validate the id
number.
But when I try it in a requires statement, it complains that
request.vars.id_number is not valid, but I couldn't place an expression
inside eval(). I already have a CRUD form that uses a validation routine
called by onaccept, but I'm wondering if I could replace it instead with
just a requires statement.
I use it like this in my custom validation:
if (db.agency[int(form.vars.issuer)].regex and\
eval(db.agency[int(form.vars.issuer)].regex)(form.vars.id_number)[1]!=
None):
form.errors.id_number='Enter id number exactly as shown in your card.'
Looking forward to hear your suggestions. TIA.

[web2py] getting characters before encryption
I have SSNs in a table as text strings. I'm planning to use CRYPT() on
the web2py app fields that will store these SSNs.
define_table('identity_card'
,Field('person', 'reference auth_user')
,Field('id_type', 'reference valid_id')
,Field('id_number','string',requires=CRYPT()
,Field('id_prefix',compute=lambda r: r['id_number'][:4])
)
The 'id_prefix' field is for human users facilitating person
verification, without having to ask for the full id number. As it is,
the id_prefix will take the first 4 chars of the hashed id number, and
not the original string. Right now I use a custom form that takes in the
id_number, without encryption, take the id_prefix, then encrypt the
id_number and finally do a manual insert into the database.
Is there a way to get the prefix characters before encryption without a
custom form?
