New to web2py. What I am doing should be very simple, but can not get it to
work.
I have a simple search form:
def search_form():
results=None
headers=['Jira Id', 'Customer Name', 'Device Type', 'Serial Number',
'Driver Version', 'Firmware Version', 'Sector Size', 'Free LEBs', 'Bytes
Read', 'Bytes Written', 'OS']
form=FORM(TABLE(TR("Search By Jira
Id",INPUT(_type="text",_name="jira_id", default=None)),
TR("Search By Customer
Name",INPUT(_type="text",_name="customer_name", default=None)),
TR("Search By Device
Type",INPUT(_type="text",_name="device_type", default=None)),
TR("",INPUT(_type="submit",_value="SUBMIT"))))
if form.accepts(request,session):
response.flash="form accepted"
if form.vars:
jira_id = request.vars.jira_id
customer_name = request.vars.customer_name
device_type = request.vars.device_type
query = ((db.bugreport.id == db.iomemory.bug_report) &
(db.iomemory.bug_report == db.system.bug_report) &
(db.bugreport.id == db.system.bug_report))
if jira_id:
query &= db.bugreport.jira_id == jira_id
if customer_name:
query &= db.bugreport.customer_name == customer_name
if device_type:
query &= db.iomemory.device_type == device_type
try:
results = db(query).select(db.bugreport.jira_id,
db.bugreport.customer_name,
db.iomemory.device_type,
db.iomemory.serial_number,
db.iomemory.driver_version,
db.iomemory.firmware_version,
db.iomemory.sector_size,
db.iomemory.free_lebs,
db.iomemory.bytes_read,
db.iomemory.bytes_written,
db.system.os,
db.system.kernel_version,
db.system.cpu_info,
db.system.mem_info,
db.system.num_cpus,
db.system.raid_type,
db.system.filesystem)
except Exception, e:
redirect(URL('error', vars=dict(e=e)))
return dict(form=form, results=results)
And this works OK, but I don't want the results to show up on the same form
page. I want it to display on a 'results' page.
I tried to put the db query in another function and called it like this
from the form:
def search_form():
#headers=['Jira Id', 'Customer Name', 'Device Type', 'Serial Number',
'Driver Version', 'Firmware Version', 'Sector Size', 'Free LEBs', 'Bytes
Read', 'Bytes Written', 'OS']
form=FORM(TABLE(TR("Search By Jira
Id",INPUT(_type="text",_name="jira_id", default=None)),
TR("Search By Customer
Name",INPUT(_type="text",_name="customer_name", default=None)),
TR("Search By Device
Type",INPUT(_type="text",_name="device_type", default=None)),
TR("",INPUT(_type="submit",_value="SUBMIT"))))
if form.accepts(request,session):
response.flash="form accepted"
if form.vars:
jira_id = request.vars.jira_id
customer_name = request.vars.customer_name
device_type = request.vars.device_type
search_results(jira_id, customer_name, device_type)
*******HERE********
elif form.errors:
response.flash="form is invalid"
else:
response.flash="please fill in the form"
return dict(form=form)
and
def search_results(jira_id, customer_name, device_type):
query = ((db.bugreport.id == db.iomemory.bug_report) &
(db.iomemory.bug_report == db.system.bug_report) &
(db.bugreport.id == db.system.bug_report))
if jira_id:
query &= db.bugreport.jira_id == jira_id
if customer_name:
query &= db.bugreport.customer_name == customer_name
if device_type:
query &= db.iomemory.device_type == device_type
results = None
results = db(query).select(db.bugreport.jira_id,
db.bugreport.customer_name,
db.iomemory.device_type,
db.iomemory.serial_number,
db.iomemory.driver_version,
db.iomemory.firmware_version,
db.iomemory.sector_size,
db.iomemory.free_lebs,
db.iomemory.bytes_read,
db.iomemory.bytes_written,
db.system.os,
db.system.kernel_version,
db.system.cpu_info,
db.system.mem_info,
db.system.num_cpus,
db.system.raid_type,
db.system.filesystem)
redirect(URL('search', var = dict(results=results))
But I can't get the redirect or a return to work. What is the best way to
do this? Can I just return the results data and have the 'search.html'
display it or is a redirect what I want?
I can't seem to find a simple example of displaying the query data on a
different page.
I know this has to be simple, but since I am new I just don't get it.
