Hi Massimo,
Thanks for suggesting this solution. I am now able to display a gird on my
page with pagination and sorting options available. But whenever I click on
page number or try to sort a column by clicking on its header, nothing
happens. I get a blank page. I tried to debug it and found that when I
click on any page number, post back takes place but form doesnt get
validated(validation fails) and I do not get to see any grid. I am posting
my code here. Please correct me if I have done anything wrong in it.
def index():
result=None
x=None
searchform=SQLFORM.factory(
Field('id', 'unicode',requires=empty_to_none),
Field('account','unicode',requires=empty_to_none),
Field('fromdate','unicode',requires=empty_to_none),
Field('todate','unicode',requires=empty_to_none),
Field('name','unicode',requires=empty_to_none),
Field('status','integer'),
Field('method',requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_SET(['Method1','Method2','Method3'],
sort=True, zero='Select'))),
Field('type','unicode',requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_SET(['Type1','Type2',],
sort=True, zero='Select'))),
Field('altname','unicode',requires=empty_to_none),
Field('group','unicode',requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IN_SET(['Group1','Group2',],
sort=True, zero='Select'))),
Field('assignee','unicode',requires=empty_to_none),
submit_button = 'Search'
)
if searchform.accepts(request.vars,keepvalues=True):
searchform.process()
id=searchform.vars.id
status=searchform.vars.status
method=searchform.vars.method
name=searchform.vars.name
account=searchform.vars.account
fromdate=searchform.vars.fromdate
todate=searchform.vars.todate
type=searchform.vars.type
altname=searchform.vars.altname
assignee=searchform.vars.assignee
group=searchform.vars.group
##THIS METHOD RETURNS A LIST OF OBJECTS
result=__get_objects(id, status, method, name,
account, fromdate, todate, type, altname,
assignee, group)
##THIS IS CODE TO CREATE IN MEMORY TEMPORARY DATABASE
fields = [Field('ID'), Field('Method'), Field('Date'),
Field('Status'), Field('Account'), Field('Name'),
Field('Amount1'), Field('Amount2'), Field('Type')
]
temp_db = cache.ram('tmp_db',lambda:
DAL('sqlite:memory').define_table('mytable',*fields)._db, None)
temp_db.mytable.truncate()
for obj in result['output']:
temp_db.mytable.insert(ID=obj['id'],
Method=obj['method'],
Date=obj['date'],
Status=obj['status'],
Account=obj['account'],
Name=obj['name'],
Amount1=obj['amount1'],
Amount2=obj['amount2'],
Type=obj['type'])
x = SQLFORM.grid(temp_db.mytable,create=False, deletable=False,
editable=False, maxtextlength=64,
paginate=2,searchable=False,details=False)
else:
response.flash = 'please fill the form'
return dict(form=searchform,result=result,x=x)
When postback happens due to any sorting or paging action,
*searchform.accepts(request.vars,keepvalues=True)
*fails and no grid gets displayed. Please help me to fix this.
Thank you
