So I'm writing a plugin to handle scheduling of tasks with a dynamic
granularity of a second or less, and I went to use PluginManger per
it's definition in tools.py:
class PluginManager(dict):
"""
This object stored parameters to configure plugins (if they need
configuration)
In models/db.py instantiate the PluginManager
plugins=PluginManager()
then set the parameters required plugins, for example
plugins.comments.db=db
(each plugin should have a documented set of required parameters)
"""
My code:
plugins = PluginManager()
db = plugins.plugin_scheduler.db or None
if db is not None:
db.define_table(plugins.plugin_scheduler.table_name or
'plugin_scheduler_table',
db.Field('execution_time', 'datetime', default=request.now),
db.Field('controller', 'string'),
db.Field('function', 'string')
)
Only problem...
def __init__(self,env):
self['globals'] = env
What's that env? Has anyone written a plugin that uses PluginManager?
I checked on the official site and none seem to be using it... If
it's request.env shouldn't it have a default arg of None? Am I using
it as it was expected to be used?
