It looks like functions that are decorated with auth.requires_login()
are not receiving their request.vars dictionary from the url.
For example, say I have an auth-protected function in a controller:
@auth.requires_login()
def index():
"""
Login-protected index page
"""
response.flash = str(request.vars)
...
And then link to it from another page:
{{=A('My Index', _href=URL(r=request, f='index', vars={'testvar':
999}))}}
Assuming that I'm previous logged in, the flash results in an empty
dictionary -- no vars are actually passed in.
(Now, if I remove the requires_login() decorator, I can see the
'testvar' variable just fine).
Looking in gluon/tools.py > Auth > requires_login(), on line 1418, I
noticed that while request.args are being encoded and passed onto the
login url, request.vars are not.
But when I added that in, so that the decorator now encoded and
passed
on the vars, restarted the server, etc, the flash was still coming up
empty -- the vars were not being passed on.
I put in a logging statement into the decorator (right around line
1416), to see if self.environment.request.vars are at least set
correctly in the body of the function.
And they are not -- the 'testvar' variable is not making it into the
decorator at all.
Is this a bug or a feature? And if feature, how do I pass vars into
an
auth-protected function?
Also, passed-in args are not being handled correctly either.
For instance, for the index() function above, if I link to it like so:
{{=A('My Index', _href=URL(r=request, f='index', args='testarg'))}}
and display the contents of display.args (as a response.flash, etc),
and
do NOT auth-protect it, the testarg shows up.
But if I decorate it with requires_login, and click on that same link,
I
get a
404 NOT FOUND
So, it seems like instead of loading 'testarg' into the contents of
args, it tries to parse it as part of post-login routing.
