Ok so the above plan works fine*. *In the interest of completeness, the
original demo code can be made to work sensibly on modern web2py (2.9.11).
So you can remove the code in the controller and (essentially) paste it
into a view. But a few corrections are needed - the major ones being adding
.
If you can comment the code and assure it is working, that would be great!

Excellent - thanks. I'll pursue that approach. I (now) see that the
generic.pdf in the welcome app is completely different from those I've been
looking at (in that pypdf demo). Are there any up to date sample code
snippits around? (I did check the web2py manual, but didn't see anything in
I have a web2py app that produces some html tabular output that I would
like to optionally display as a pdf.
Looking around it seems that pypdf is just the thing for this. I downloaded
the sample app from https://code.google.com/p/pyfpdf/ and it works just
fine.
However it needs code in the
I'm making use of list:string to store registration numbers (for cats):

2.4.x this worked fine - displaying a text
I think this is due to me forgetting to update static/js/web2py.js from the
2.7 or 2.8 welcome app, but will confirm.

I am wondering if there are some deeper issues getting NoSQL support in
Web2py - for instance the model part seems pretty tied into relational
ideas (e.g db.define_table and ..references db.dog etc). This design works
really well and insulates developers from much of the fiddlyness of dealing
In additon, adding a second IS_INT_IN_RANGE validation condition is
sufficient to coerce the field back to int.

Field('dogid', 'integer', requires=[IS_IN_DB(db(db.dog), 'dog.id'),
IS_INT_IN_RANGE(0, 1000)])

So it looks like IS_IN_DB is somehow getting
I don't believe so, in sqlite the table id fields appear to be integer

However you are correct that it is db related - if I remove the requires
directive i.e:
form=SQLFORM.factory(
Field('dogid', 'integer')
)
Then the form will post successfully (if I type in an integer).
I did wonder if the lookup list was causing the types to be confused, so
Thanks, Niphlod - However amending the form definition as you suggested,
i.e:
form=SQLFORM.factory(
Field('dogid', 'integer',
requires=IS_IN_DB(db(db.dog), 'dog.id', '%(name)s')),
)
gives the same behaviour - i.e field is still a str.

Suppose I have an model like:
db.define_table(
'dog',
Field('name'),
Field('type'),
Field('vaccinated', 'boolean', default=False),
Field('picture', 'upload', default=''),
format = '%(name)s')
and a controller like:
@auth.requires_login()
def dogtest():
theId = None
Done. Issue 1135.
Thanks!

Just a quick thank you - updated my (still alpha) cat breeding application

You are correct, I was clicking the delete button on the grid. Yes, I
think checking the success or otherwise of the Ajax request sounds like
the right thing to do - since calls to the db can fail for all sorts of
reasons, not just constraints.

In order to generate a model with foreign references to itself you need
to use'reference table' as opposed to db.table in the Field defines.
While this works, I noticed that drop down lists and id-name mapping
were missing from the generated grid. I initially thought this was due
to using the

I have just started looking at using web2py to build a web application,

While I have found the example apps and docs good, there is one glaring
omission - how to do updates/edits in forms. For example I worked
