I'll certainly give more details when it's working - the original web2pyslices posting was in 2016.
But my problem at the moment is where is 'current.request' ? That was in from web2py.gluon import current but despite importing py4web (and pydal) there seems to be no 'current' structure. As I mentioned the documentation isn't really helpful in this. I'm currently using a 20190929 build (via Pycharm) and py4web itself will run. graham On Monday, October 14, 2019, 1:26:36 AM GMT+1, Massimo Di Pierro <[email protected]> wrote: I was not aware of it. Could you post some screen shots? maybe an example of a generated app?Unless you use grids it should be easy to port it to py4web.

However someone has asked whether it could work with py4web and so I have had a quick look at it. There are minor Python 3 issues which are easily fixed but when I start to look at the web2py interface I immediately come across a problem: the code makes us of the 'current' structure, in particular it uses current.request to obtain the POST data and there appears to be no such structure in py4web. I have checked the py4web documentation and it does say in the PyDAL chapter, under ;'Model-less applications' "...and provide necessary access to global scope via the current object (as described in Chapter 4)." but Chapter 4 does not contain any details. Perhaps this contains a lot of text from the web2py docs and will have corrections and more py4web content included later. Obviously this is not of any real relevance to py4web itself but I just wondered whether it is intended that 'current' or an equivalent is or will be available in py4web or is there any simple (because I don't want to take up too much of your time) work around.
