[web2py:36958] Re: Validation when using crud.create
Massimo, I think you mean db.companyactivity.company.requires=[IS_IN_DB(db,db.company.id,'% (companyname)s'),IS_NOT_IN_DB(db (db.companyactivity.activity==request.vars.activity),db.companyactivity.company,error_message='already in database')] Yes, I am sorry a typo introduced on translation. The problem still exists, in appadmin all the validators of this kind work, in my own cms based on crud functions they do not work.

[web2py:37024] Re: Custom Form Element For Crud.Create
Hi Mengu,
i was just wondering if it is possible to add a custom form element
like an input or a drop down box to a crud.create. i also would like
to know how sqlform is different than crud.
I don't know if this what you're looking for, but I needed a custom
drop
box in a crud.create and a crud.update form, I added the following
line
to the function:
activity=activity_rowset()
db.timetable.activity.requires=IS_IN_SET([row.activity for row in
activity])
The entire function reads like:
@auth.requires_membership('site_manager')
def create_timetable():
response.view='default/form.html'
response.flash='Insert class'
db.timetable.company.default=auth.user.company
activity=activity_rowset()
db.timetable.activity.requires=IS_IN_SET([row.activity for row in
activity])
form=create_form(db.timetable,message='Class inserted')
return dict(form=form)
create_form is a custom function in which I add a reset and canel
button to
the from, I guess that answers the first part of your question:
def create_form(table,message):
form=crud.create(table,message=message)
form[0][-1][1].append(INPUT(_type=reset,_value=Reset))
form[0][-1][1].append(INPUT
(_type=button,_value=Cancel,_onclick=javascript:history.go(-1)))
return form
I hope this will point you in the right direction.
Annet.

[web2py:37038] Re: validator less than
Massimo,
Why isn't the problem solved by the validator that I posted?
In my model the openinghours table reads like:
db.define_table('openinghours',
Field
('company',db.company,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='CASCADE',
writable=False, readable=False),
Field('day',db.day,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='RESTRICT'),

...
db.openinghours.from_time.requires=IS_TIME(error_message='should be
UU:MM!')
db.openinghours.from_time.widget=timeplain
db.openinghours.from_time.requires=is_less_than(request.vars.to_time)
db.openinghours.to_time.requires=IS_TIME(error_message='should be
UU:MM!')
db.openinghours.to_time.widget=timeplain
In the less_than_class I changed the following line, because of the
format of the
opening hours:
other=datetime.datetime.strptime(self.value,'%H:%M')
When I expose the functions that create or update opening hours, I get
an error ticket:

I don't understand why argument 1 is None.
If you want to compare from_time with to_time then to_time should bot
be None unless you tell us how should the validation be performed in
this case.
When the user enters from_time 10:00 and to_time 22:00 the form should
be accepted,
10:00 22:00 is True
When the user enters from_time 10.00 and to_time 02:00 the form should
NOT be accepted.
10:00 02:00 is False.
I hope this explanation of my problem helps you help me solve it.

[web2py:37040] validator breaks update and create other table
In my model I have a combination table that combines companies with
activities. Since I don't want a user to enter a combination twice I
defined the following validator:
db.companyactivity.company.requires=[IS_IN_DB(db,db.company.id,'%
(companyname)s'),IS_NOT_IN_DB(db
(db.companyactivity.activity==request.vars.activity),db.companyactivity.company,error_message='already

I also have a table timetable which reads like:
db.define_table('timetable',
Field
('company',db.company,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='CASCADE',
writable=False, readable=False),
Field('activity',length=48,default='',notnull=True),
Field('day',db.dag,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='RESTRICT'),
Field('time',type='time',default='',notnull=True),
Field('duration',length=3,default='',notnull=True),
Field('location',length=24),
Field
('level',db.level,default=1,notnull=True,ondelete='RESTRICT'),
migrate='timetable.table')
In my cms the function to insert a class or update a class reads like:
@auth.requires_membership('site_manager')
def create_timetable():
response.view='default/form.html'
response.flash='Insert class'
db.timetable.company.default=auth.user.company
activity=activity_rowset()
db.timetable.activity.requires=IS_IN_SET([row.activity for row in
activity])
form=create_form(db.timetable,message='Class inserted')
return dict(form=form)
@auth.requires_membership('site_manager')
def update_timetable():
response.view='default/form.html'
response.flash='Update or delete class'
record=db.timetable[request.args[0]]
if not record or not record.company==auth.user.bedrijf:
redirect(URL(r=request,f='crud_timetable'))
activity=activity_rowset()
db.timetable.activity.requires=IS_IN_SET([row.activity for row in
activity])
form=update_form(db.timetable,record,'crud_timetable','Class
deleted or updated',True)
return dict(form=form)
When I expose these function I get the following error ticket:

don't understand why this error occurs. Does one of you know why this
happens?

[web2py:37078] Re: validator breaks update and create other table
Massimo,
(db.companyactivity.activity==request.vars.activity)
the left hand side a reference field or an int and the right hand side
is a string. Hard to follow ...
I apologize for that. The combination table reads like:
db.define_table('companyactivity',
Field
('company',db.company,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='CASCADE',
writable=False, readable=False),
Field
('activity',db.activity,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='RESTRICT'),
Field('created_on',type='datetime', writable=False,
readable=False),
Field('modified_on',type='datetime', writable=False,
readable=False),
migrate='companyactivity.table')
db.companyactivity.company.requires=[IS_IN_DB(db,db.company.id,'%
(companyname)s'),IS_NOT_IN_DB(db
(db.companyactivity.activity==request.vars.activity),db.companyactivity.company,error_message='already
in database')]
db.companyactivity.activity.requires=IS_IN_DB(db,db.activiteit.id,'%
(activiteit)s')
So company and activity are both of type int.
db.timetable.activity.requires=IS_IN_SET([row.activity for row in
activity])
should be
db.timetable.activity.requires=IS_IN_SET([row.id for row in activity],
[row.activity for row in activity])
I changed my code to read like the code above, but I still get the
same error ticket.

Annet.

In this case you need to use crud.update(...,message='') and message will be displayed after redirection. The message didn't display after redirection because it was overridden by another response.flash, I had to rename one of the flashes to get the flash to work properly.

[web2py:37224] Hosting at Webfaction
I am planning to sign up for a Plan Shared 1 hosting account at WebFaction for production purposes. So far, I have been developing an application on my Mac, on which the web2py source code runs out of the box, and testing it on a Mac Server which I access using Apple Remote DeskTop. I read the post below, and wonder whether there have been any changes since it was posted. Further more I have some questions about it. Step 1 to 3 are clear to me. However, step 4 is a bit cryptic to me: Get the latest web2py and copy it into ~/webapps/apachewsgi/: cd ~/repos/svn #for example svn checkout http://web2py.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ web2py-read- only svn export web2py-read-only ~/webapps/apachewsgi/web2py Do I access my account using SSH and run these commands? cd ~/repos/svn #for example Means change directory to ~/repos/svn why '# for example'? svn checkout http://web2py.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ web2py-read-only Here I get the latest copy of web2py? Why web2py-read-only? svn export web2py-read-only ~/webapps/apachewsgi/web2py ... and copy it into ~/webapps/apachewsgi/ why ~/webapps/apachewsgi/ web2py? On my Mac Server I uploaded the web2py source code from my Mac into my home folder using sftp and opened web2py_src.zip using the archive utility, can't I do something similar at WebFaction?

Massimo, Since I am a complete novice when it comes to working with computers other than a Mac, I guess it might be helpful to share the knowledge I acquired along the way with others. I will post a slice when I have set up the entire account. For now, David, of WebFaction Support, mailed me that for https a dedicated IP address is required and that additionally this allows me to open custom ports. To get a dedicated IP address you first need to sign up for a Shared 1 plan and then upgrade it through the control panel to a Shared 1 with dedicated IP address. Furthermore he told me to change my domain's NS records to use their nameservers. ns1.webfaction.com ns2.webfaction.com ns3.webfaction.com ns4.webfaction.com I am not sure all this is absolutely necessary, I'd like to learn that from you.

implement that constraint. However, even when inserting a record in an

I do not why but why not just
a class=adiv href={{=URL(r=request,c='demo',f='index')}}

Thanks, that solves my problem in this case, because I don't need to
re-size the window.
Maybe because you never escape your Python code?

think I could replace:
club.bedrijf.bedrijfsnaam
with:
h2Fitwise Demo Applicatie/h2
pIn de Demo Applicatie .../p
I gave this a try:
a class=adiv onmouseover=this.style.cursor='pointer';

By escaping my Python code you mean escaping this line:

[web2py:37849] files under a subdomain.
My applications have a number of files in common which I would like to store under a subdomain: e.g. files.example.com At the moment I store these files in the static folders of the applications and use the following URLs to retrieve them: in web2py_ajax: response.files.insert(0,URL(r=request,c='static',f='jquery.js')) in a custom controller: response.image=URL(r=request,c='static',f='cms/media/default_1.jpg') Is it possible to store the .js .css and .jpg files under files.example.com, if so, where on the server should I store them and what would the URLs in the applications read like?

[web2py:37880] Confirmation at delete
The jQuery code for confirmation on delete connects the onclick event
of the checkbox with a confirmation dialog, I have never seen this
convention before, in the applications I have seen sofar the
confirmation dialog is triggered by a submit. Is it possible to re-
write the code in web2py_ajax.html:
jQuery(input[type='checkbox'].delete).click(function() { if
(this.checked) if(!confirm({{=T('Sure you want to delete this
object?')}})) this.checked=false; });
... so that the code connects the submit with the confirmation dialog
and not the onclick event of the checkbox?

[web2py:37881] Re: files under a subdomain.
Massimo, yes but you will need to hardcode the URLs instead of using URL(...). So the URLs in web2py_ajax and the custom controller would read like: response.files.insert(0,URL(r=request,c='static',f='jquery.js')) response.files.insert(0,'http://files.example.com/js/jquery.js') response.image=URL(r=request,c='static',f='cms/media/default_1.jpg') response.image='http://files.example.com/cms/media/default_1.jpg' I guess to stay away from hard coding the URLs I could also create a files application and serve the files from there?

[web2py:37883] WSGI and wsgihandler.py
I am working my way through setting up my account at Webfaction using the WebFaction and web2py User Guides and this post: http://forum.webfaction.com/viewtopic.php?pid=8844#p8844 Since this post is almost a year old, and web2py has evolved rapidly, I wonder whether the procedure is still accurate. e.g. I created a mod_wsgi 2.5/Python 2.5 application and got the following confirmation: Created by me on 2009-12-24 09:49:41, modified by me on 2009-12-24 09:49:41 Name: apachewsgi Port: x App type: mod_wsgi 2.5/Python 2.5 App doc: This sets up the mod_wsgi 2.5/Python 2.5 stack. Apache will be installed in your application's apache2 directory. A cronjob that runs every 20 minutes and restarts Apache if it's down will be created. Plus the installer for 'mod_wsgi 2.5/Python 2.5' - automatically creates a cronjob that would start the server, if it is not running. So I have Apache installed and a mod_wsgi 2.5/Python 2.5. application, which I guess is WSGI as referenced in the following line: In the web2py user guide I read: web2py provides a file wsgihandler.py to interface to WSGI. What exactly does this mean, and does it have any consequences for the httpd.conf file?

Hi Mengu, so basically, you need to fire up another terminal window to ssh into your webfaction account and use kill -SIGTERM 9813. that's what it means. I thought web2py is a long running process but from these instructions: from another terminal, kill web2py process according to web2py's output instructions Start your app: ~/webapps/apachewsgi/apach2/bin/start ... I learn that I kill web2py and start apache? Is that right. On my Mac Server I used Screen Sharing to start web2py, and run web2py as a long running process, that is, I didn't 'kill' it.

[web2py:38428] auth_user already exists
I have one application (called base) in which I define all the tables
for three other applications. In the three applications I use the same
db.py file. In these db.py files I set migrate=False on all tables.
One of these applications is a CMS, in which I enabled Authorization
and Authentication. This creates the .table files for auth_event, auth-
group, auth_membership, auth_permission and auth_user in the databases
folder of the cms application, all the .table files for the other
tables are in the databases folder of the base application.
When I expose a function of the cms application I get the following

I have given my question some more thought. Is it possible to generate the tables related to authorization and authentication in the base app, which also contains the other table definitions of my apps. And then in the cms app just uncomment the following lines of code: from gluon.tools import * auth=Auth(globals(),db) # authentication/ authorization crud=Crud(globals(),db) # for CRUD helpers using auth mail=Mail() # mailer mail.settings.server='smtp.gmail.com:587'# your SMTP server mail.settings.sender='y...@gmail.com' # your email mail.settings.login='username:password' # your credentials or None auth.settings.mailer=mail# for user email verification ... and add the table definitions for the auth_event, auth-group, auth_membership, auth_permission and auth_user tables and set migrate=False on these tables. In that case I wil have all my .table files in one application and only one sql.log file.

I tried something else, in the auth_table definition I set migrate=False and I made the auth.define_tables() statement a comment: # auth.define_tables() # creates all needed tables I am now able to expose the default/index function and the functions that do not require login, however, in the list of available databases and tables only the auth_user table is listed. The auth_event, auth- group, auth_membership, auth_permission tables are not listed. Their .table files are in the databases folder and the PostgreSQL database contains the respective tables. Why aren't they listed, they have been defined. So no solution to the problem. Kind regards, Annet. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups web2py-users group.

[web2py:38459] Re: auth_user already exists
Massimo,
Thanks for your reply.
Back to your original problem:
2) You have a custom auth_user in the wrong place in db.py (or with
wrong syntax) and the table gets defined twice. I am pretty sure this
is the case but I cannot point to the error if I do not see the code.
This is the code I have in db.py:
from gluon.tools import *
auth=Auth(globals(),db) # authentication/
authorization
# auth.settings.hmac_key='sha512:a94ab0df-7d00-4326-bc4b-e8732ed0e81a'

notnull=True,ondelete='CASCADE', writable=False, readable=False),
Field('first_name', length=128, default='', notnull=True),
Field('last_name', length=128, default='', notnull=True),
Field('email', length=128, default='', notnull=True),
Field('site', type='boolean', writable=False, readable=False),
Field('username', length=128, default='', notnull=True,

auth_table.modified_on.update=request.now
auth_table.most_recent_login.default=request.now
auth.settings.table_user=auth_table
auth.define_tables() # creates all needed
tables
I hope this provides you with sufficient information to help me solve
the problem.
The fact that the tables related to authentication and authorization
are defined in a different application than the other tables isn't a
problem then?
Kind regards,
Annet.

[web2py] html e-mail newsletter
From this article I learned how to code an html e-mail newsletter: http://articles.sitepoint.com/article/code-html-email-newsletters Now I would like to send this newsletter from within a Web2py CRM application. I searched the group for how to instructions but I didn't find anything useful. I tried the link in this post: http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/83ee213ce5d3db0c/2ba13207adf09e57?lnk=gstq=html+email#2ba13207adf09e57 but that resulted in an unable to connect warning. I tried the link to the wiki from Web2py's homepage but that resulted in an internal error. I hope one of you could provide me with detailed instructions of how to send an html e-mail newsletter from a Web2py application.

[web2py] Using the Template System to Generate Emails
I am trying to work out a working version of this: Using the Template
System to Generate Emails, page 146 -147 of the web2py.
1. The database table in db.py:
db.define_table('nfa',
Field('bedrijf',db.bedrijf,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='CASCADE',writable=False,readable=False),
Field('nfatype',db.nfatype,default='',notnull=True,ondelete='RESTRICT'),
Field('adres',length=72,default='',notnull=True),
migrate=False)
2. The mail settings in db.py:
from gluon.tools import *
mail=Mail()
mail.settings.server='smtp.web...ion.com:587'
mail.settings.sender='adm...ise.eu'
mail.settings.login='xx'
Where I would like to send every comapny in a message , stored in a
view file html_mail.html:
3. The function in default.py
def send_mail():
nfas=db(db.nfa.nfatype==3).select(db.nfa.ALL,orderby=db.nfa.bedrijf)
for nfa in nfas:
context = dict(nfa=nfa)
message = response.render('html_mail.html', context)
mail.send(to=['.'], subject='None', message=message)
.
My questions are: what goes here: to= [''] the mail address to
which I would like to send the mail is in nfas.adres and how does this
function end, I mean what goes at the ...

[web2py] Re: Using the Template System to Generate Emails
Hi Denes,
This send_mail function works:
def send_mail():
nfas=db(db.nfa.nfatype==4).select(db.nfa.ALL,orderby=db.nfa.bedrijf)
for nfa in nfas:
context=dict(nfa=nfa)
message=response.render('clublocatormail/
send_mail.html',context)
recipient=nfa.adres
mail.send(to=[recipient],subject='Controleer uw adresgegevens
in Fitwise',message=message)
return True
I do have a question though: why recipient=nfa.adres and not
recipient=nfa[0].adres
Furthermore, I don't think this function is very robust. It returns
True on success, but that's all. What happens when the send function
returns a False? Shouldn't I keep track of the Trues and Falses the
send function returns for every mail sent?
Kind regards,
Annet

[web2py] Re: Using the Template System to Generate Emails
Hi Denes, because you have for nfa in nfas: so each nfa is a record (from the group of records or 'Rows' object called nfas) This is what caused my confusion, in my cms app I had the following lines of code: record=db(db.betalingsgegevens.bedrijf==auth.user.bedrijf).select() record_id=record[0].id I thought that was similar to: for nfa in nfas: recipient=nfa.adres I do see the difference now, thanks.

[web2py] Re: Using the Template System to Generate Emails
In my application all functions related to sending mail from it work.
The main function reads like:
def send_mail():
nfas=db(db.nfa.nfatype==4).select(db.nfa.ALL,orderby=db.nfa.bedrijf)
for nfa in nfas:
context=dict(nfa=nfa)

recipient=nfa.adres
mail.send(to=[recipient],subject='Controleer uw adresgegevens

return True
The send_mail.html view reads like (I removed the irrelevant parts):

been trying to find out why for two days now, and hope one of you can
come to my rescue.

[web2py] Re: Using the Template System to Generate Emails
I have another question:
In case the user would like to view the html mail in his browser, I
have got the following line of code:
td class=browser align=left
{{if not request.function=='browser_version':}}
pHaving trouble viewing this email? a
href={{=URL(r=request,c='clublocatormail',f='browser_version',args=[nfa.bedrijf])}}View
it in your browser/a/p
{{pass}}
/td
I would like to use the same view, however, that view contains the
variable nfa.bedrijf, which, in case of the mail, is available from
the context. The link to the browser_version function contains
args=[nfa.bedrijf], so nfa.bedrijf is available as request.args[0] in
the browser_version function, but I don't now to pass it on to the
view in a suitable way.
I could do:
def browser_version():
response.view='send_mail.html'
nfa=db((db.nfa.nfatype==4)(db.nfa.bedrijf==request.args[0])).select(db.nfa.ALL)
return dict(nfa=nfa)
..., but that would unnecessarily query the database. Is there another
way to solve this problem?
Kind regards,
Annet.

[web2py] Mailing list.
In my application I have a table npa which contains non-physical addresses, i.e. telephone numbers, fax numbers, e-mail addresses etc. that are displayed on business cards. This table has a field company which references a table company. Initially I inserted addresses into these tables which I got from the Chamber of Commerce. Now I would like to send a first e-mail to these companies, based on the e-mail addresses in the npa table. In this first mail the recipient gets the opportunity to register himself as contact person for a company. The table contact_person contains a field e-mail_address, which I would like to use for future promotional e-mails, instead of the e-mail address in the npa table. However, if the recipient doesn't register as a contact person, I have to be able to use the e-mail address from the npa table. Furthermore, I need a table which keeps track of the unsubscribe request. Did one of you face a similar problem? How did you solve it?

[web2py] args problem in 1.76.5

the number of the month e.g April 4. Month is a string, for April it
reads like: April 2010. Publish defaults to false and is set to true
on the 1st of the next month.

[web2py] Re: args problem in 1.76.5
Massimo,
The problem is that web2py did replace spaces with underscores, but in
version 1.76.x it no longer does. The function described above worked,
until I upgraded to version 1.76.5.
That's why I have this line of code in my view:
h3Nieuws {{=month.replace('_',' ')}}/h3
to have the month display like without the underscore: April 2009
instead of April_2009
Kind regards,
Annet.

[web2py] ProgrammingError: relation auth_user already exists
I have one application (called base) in which I define all the tables for three other applications. In the three applications I use the same db.py file. In these db.py files I set migrate=False on all tables. One of these applications is a CMS, in which I enabled Authorization and Authentication. This creates the .table files for auth_event, auth- group, auth_membership, auth_permission and auth_user in the databases folder of the cms application, all the .table files for the other tables are in the databases folder of the base application. Today I defined four more tables in the base application's db.py file, and copied and paste them to the db.py files of the other applications, and set migrate=False on these tables. After saving the db.py file of the CMS application I got the following error when I go to the database administration: ProgrammingError: relation auth_user already exists Does this mean I cannot make changes to the db.py file in which Authorization and Authentication are enabled? i.e. I can only save the db.py file once.

[web2py] Unable to install application

[web2py] Re: ProgrammingError: relation auth_user already exists
Massimo, Yes, that would solve the problem, but I do have data in the auth_xxx tables. I had hoped there would be a more robust solution. Isn't it possible to define the auth_event, auth- group, auth_membership, auth_permission and auth_user in db.py just like I define all the other tables, and after the tables have been created set their migrates to migrate=False. I mean to not use auth.define_tables() to create the tables. In that case the auth_xxx tables are created once, and longer touched when I edit the db.py file.

Hi Thadeus, You're right, WebFaction rocks. However, when you want to upload and install a packed application you will have to proceed as follows: 1. Log on to WebFaction via terminal/ssh 2. cd to your remote web2py/application directory 3. Make a directory by the name of the packed application 4. Upload and install the packed web2py application via the web interface and rename it to match the name of the directory you manually created. https://admin.domain_name.com/admin/default/site In the upload and install form browse to the directory where the packed application resides, rename it (required) packed_application_name and check the overwrite installed app check box.

Hi Denes, Thanks for providing me with an explanation of why this problem occurs and with a solution. Following such a convention (adding '_id' to denote a reference) is highly recommended.

[web2py] Re: Webfaction rocks
I took a somewhat different approach. I signed up for a shared 1 plan and got a dedicated IP address. Under domains I added two subdomains: www and admin. Under applications I created a web2py application of type custom install script (http://wiki.webfaction.com/wiki/Web2py- LatestSource?format=txt). Under websites I created two websites one with https disabled for mydomain.com and www.mydomain.com and one with https enabled for admin .mydomain.com in both cases I selected my dedicated IP address from the IP menu. Now admin can be accessed from: https://admin.mydomain.com using the same initial password as the webfaction control panel. In my post of 20 April I described how to install an application. Furthermore, according to Massimo this is not true: CAVEATS * Web2py won't work properly if it is mounted to a sub-URL like http://domain.com/web2py/. Instead, it must be mounted to the website root, e.g. http://domain.com/ Massimo's comment on this caveat: It is not true. It can be mounted in a sub-url but you the web server or web2py routes must be instructed to remove the web2py/ from the url.

[web2py] Re: request with args
Thadeus and Jonathan, Thanks for you replies. I am afraid I haven's made myself clear. However, your replies pointed me in the right direction. I have an update_form, in which I set the values by querying the database, which results in four rowsets. When one of the rowsets is empty, the function breaks. I thought I'd solve this problem by adding an if which checks if all the rowsets evaluate to true: def update_form(): if not (club and address and nfas and persoon): redirect(URL(r=request,a='init',c='clublocator',f='application_form')) return(form=form) Then in the init/clublocator/application_form function I would check if the request comes from the crm/clublocatormail/update_form function: if request==URL(r=request,a='crm',c='clublocatormail',f='update_form'): response.flash='message' After reading your replies I learnt that maybe just: if request.args solves my problem. I supports Thadeus comment on response.flash, it's quite a challenge to get all your response.flash assignments right, and not overwrite them elsewhere. Kind regards, Annet.
[web2py] auth_ tables problem
I have one application (called base) in which I define all the tables for three other applications. In the three applications I use the same db.py file. In these db.py files I set migrate=False on all tables. One of these applications is a CMS, in which I enabled Authorization and Authentication. This creates the .table files for auth_event, auth- group, auth_membership, auth_permission and auth_user in the databases folder of the cms application, all the .table files for the other tables are in the databases folder of the base application. When I extend the model in the base application's db.py file, i.e. define new tables, and set migrate=False on these tables and copy and paste them into the db.py file of the CMS application, after saving the db.py file, I keep getting the following error when I go to the database administration: ProgrammingError: relation auth_user already exists Am I right to conclude that I cannot make changes to the db.py file in which Authorization and Authentication are enabled? i.e. I can only save the db.py file once? Did anyone face the same problem? How did you solve it? Is there a best practice to dealing with db.py when it comes to defining and altering tables and using web2py's authentication and authorization features? Kind regards, Annet.
[web2py] Re: auth_ tables problem
Thanks for your reply, have you tried: # defines all needed tables without migration/table files auth.define_tables(migrate=False) where you configure auth for your app?

[web2py] email form into database table.
In an application I have forms which on submit are mailed to my mail box. After verification I manually insert the form data into their respective tables, e.g. for an application form into the tables: company, address, nfa, and contact. Since this is a rather time consuming task I thought of inserting the form data into a form_table and retrieving them into a four part form (one for every table), and after verification submitting each form and on form acceptance insert the data into the individual tables. I wonder whether there is the right way to proceed or whether there is a better way to execute this task. Kind regards, Annet.
[web2py] Re: email form into database table.
Massimo, You can insert them and have a flag (Field) called appreoved which default to false. Than you can send yourself an email with a link to a page so that by just clicking on the link you approve it. I implemented this and gave it a try, just what I was looking for. Thanks.

Hi Sverre, I am using Allan Jardine's DataTables: http://www.datatables.net/ Regards, Annet.
[web2py] Multiple apps based on one model.
I read this post in the group:
http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/6201f9f56bdb16d6,
and I am facing a similar problem.
I have one web2py installation in which I have a base application
which contains all shared files i.e .js and .css files. Within this
application I also defined all database tables, so all .table files
are in the databases folder of this application. Furthermore this
web2py installation contains an init application and b2c, b2b, crm
applications. The db.py files of these applications are copies of the
db.py of the base application with all migrates set to False. From the
post mentioned above I understand I can make a function of the base
app's db.py, name it db_stuff.py and put it in the base application's
modules file:
/web2py/applications/base/modules/db_stuff.py
My first question is: how do I make a function of a db.py file, and
which parts of the db.py file should the function contain?
Then, I should write an import statement in each of the applications
db.py files:
local_import('db_stuff',app='base')
My second question is: what code do these db.py files contain apart
from the import statement?
Kind regards,
Annet.

You can then upload and install a packed web2py app via the web interface. Kind regards, Annet.
[web2py] Re: Data table
Hi Sverre,
Here's an example of how you would make the id a link:

thead

thcompany id/th
thcompany name/th

{{for company in rows:}}
tr
td
{{=A(company.id,_onmouseover=this.style.cursor='pointer';,

/td
td
{{=company.name}}
/td
/tr
{{pass}}
/tbody

Here the link opens a details view in a new window, but that's
optional.

I have multiple applications connecting to the same database, some of them query the database for data on multiple companies others query the database for data on one company, apart from a company table containing the company id there is no overlap.

Massimo, At webfaction I can do: [myser...@webxxx ~]$ crontab -l 11,31,51 * * * * /home/fitwise/webapps/customweb2py/apache2/bin/start /dev/null 21 12,32,52 * * * * /home/fitwise/webapps/customweb2py/apache2/bin/start /dev/null 21 46 * * * * cd ~/webapps/loganalyzer;./update_awstats.sh [myser...@webxxx ~]$ ... and I can edit this file: crontab -e I posted a ticket: Will running the crontab -e command and adding this line: 10 * * * * root **applications/admin/cron/ expire_sessions.py , solve my problem? What's with the 10, and the 'root ** applications' bit, are they specific to my local system, or will they work remotely as well. ... to which I got the following reply: Yes, I bee that the root ** part is specific to your local cron setup. I would suggest that you try to figure out which command exactly do you need to run through the command line, in order to clear the sessions. If the script is directly executable via the command line, then you should add the command that you are executing it with to your crontab. If it is accessible via web, you could add something like 'wget http://yourdomain.com/url/of/script' to your crontab, in order to trigger a web request to the script. I hope this helps you help me solve the problem, Annet.
[web2py] Re: Need help with datatable
Hi Sverre,
I have a cms application in which I use dataTables. In the view I have
something like:
td
{{=A('update/delete',_onmouseover=this.style.cursor='pointer';,
_href=URL(r=request,f='update_nfa',args=[record.nfa.id]))}}
/td
... and in the corresponding function:
auth.requires_membership('site_manager')
def update_nfa():
response.view='default/update_form.html'
record=db.nfa[request.args[0]]
if not record or not record.company==auth.user.company:
redirect(URL(r=request,f='crud_nfa'))
form=update_form(db.nfa,record,'crud_nfa',message='Nfa
updated',deletable=True)
return dict(form=form)
... where update_form(...) is a function that performs the actual
update:
def update_form(table,record,next,message,deletable):
form=crud.update(table,record,next=(URL(r=request,f=next)),message=message,deletable=deletable)
form[0][-1]
[1].append(INPUT(_type=button,_value=Cancel,_onclick=javascript:history.go(-1)))
return form
I hope you get the idea.
Kind regards,
Annet.
[web2py] Re: CRUD read or OneToOne
I want the user to click on the link and if there is already a project _location for a project then just display it (crud.read), if the project has no location associated, then it will give me crud.write. I know it must be simple but I cant figure it out. I am not sure I do understand your problem correctly, but I'll give it a try. You list projects, when the user clicks on one of the projects, depending on the project's location being set or not you either display the project's details or display an update form @auth.requires_login() def update_project_location(): projects=db(..).select(..) form=[] if request.args: project_id=request.args(0) project=db.project[project_id] if project[0].location: form=crud.read(db.project,project_id) else: form=crud.update(db.project,project_id) return(projects=projects,form=form) I hope this helps to point you in right direction. Annet.
[web2py] Re: How to send an URL() from a view to a controller?
I want to implement a function to back to previous page.
Simply back to the previous page would be something like:
td
{{=A('back',_onmouseover=this.style.cursor='pointer';,_onclick=javascript:history.go(-1);)}}
/td
I am not sure but doesn't this: from documents back to device and
from documents back to workorder contradict this: from device or
workorder view back to documents controller?
Kind regards,
Annet
[web2py] Re: expire_sessions.py and cron
Massimo, Thank you very much for providing me with this code, problem solved. Kind regards, Annet.
[web2py] Re: Drop Down alternative
Massimo,
I gave this a try:
from gluon.sqlhtml import AutocompleteWidget
db.define_table('address',
Field('city',length=42,default='',notnull=True)),
...)
db.address.city.widget=AutocompleteWidget(request,db.city.name,db.city.name,orderby=db.city.name)
but that doesn't work, why not?
Kind regards,
Annet.
[web2py] Authentication
I read chapter 8 of the web2py manual and some post on authentication
to get started (again) implementing a cms.
I read about MD5 and SHA-512, and understand I have to provide a
secret key for this setting: auth.settings.hmac_key='your secret
key' Does this key have a specific format, e.g. 448a98e0-00fd-46b2-
ac4f-a14d2315b189? Or can I use any key? At the moment I am working in
web2py 1.76.5 does this version already use hmac + sha-512?
Furthermore I would like to customize the auth_user table. In the
manual the proper way to define a user table is:
auth_table = db.define_table(auth.settings.table_user_name,
Field('first_name', length=128, default=''),
Field('last_name', length=128, default=''),
Field('email', length=128, default='', unique=True),
Field('password', 'password', length=256, readable=False,
label='Password'),
Field('registration_key', length=128, default= '', writable=False,
readable=False))
auth_table.first_name.requires =
IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message=auth.messages.is_empty)
auth_table.last_name.requires =
IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message=auth.messages.is_empty)
auth_table.password.requires = [IS_STRONG(), CRYPT()]
auth_table.email.requires =
[IS_EMAIL(error_message=auth.messages.invalid_email), IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,
auth_table.email)]
auth.settings.table_user = auth_table
In a workgroup post of 8 February I read this definition:
auth.settings.table_user = db.define_table('auth_user',
Field('first_name', length=512,default=''),
Field('last_name', length=512,default=''),
Field('email', length=512,default='', requires =
[IS_EMAIL(),IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,'auth_user.email')]),
Field('password', 'password', readable=False, label='Password',
requires=CRYPT(auth.settings.hmac_key)),
Field('registration_key', length=512, writable=False,
readable=False,default=''),
Field('reset_password_key', length=512, writable=False,
readable=False, default=''))
What is the reset_password_key for? I guess I'd better use the latter
table definition, don't I need any validators?
Kind regards,
Annet.
