[web2py] Test if client has javascript

[ma...@rockiger.com]

I am using disqus as comment system. This only works for client that have 
javascript enabled.
I am programming a fallback for clients that don't have javascript (esp. 
Google).

I am curios, if there is a way, to see if javascript is enabled on the 
client making a request to a website?
This way I could save on database requests

Regards,
Marco

I strongly recommend a book-friendly theme for such screenshots, which
means lots of white, and little or no text on non-white backgrounds.

[web2py] Trouble using web2py with remotely hosted CouchDB

[poplar]

Hi! This is my first experiment with web2py, and I'm hoping to use a
CouchDB Futon at couchone.com. I'm running on OS X 10.3.9 with couchdb-
python version 0.8. I tried the current stable trunk version of web2py
but couldn't bring up the welcome app because of hitting the bug
reported here in January about the Server object not having the
attribute 'commit', so I downloaded the development branch to get the
fix. In the welcome app's db.py, I commented out the sqlite usage and
substituted:

db = DAL('couchdb://username:passw...@myaccount.couchone.com/
_utils')

I successfully brought up the welcome app and created a new trial
application. Then I tried to insert an authorized user in order to
check if the database was working. The app gave me a ticket saying:

[web2py] Populating auth_users

[Rafal]

Hi


I want to deploy application multiple times with the basic standard
data. Everything works correctly untill I want to add first user (with
some standard password) to auth_user.


I tried
if db(db.auth_user).count() == 0:
db.auth_user.insert(username='test', first_name='test1',
last_name='test2', email='', password='password')
 and the password is not hashed in the database. how do I hash
"manually"

[web2py] How to add form vars to crud.create onaccept?

[Tom Atkins]

I have something like this which works fine:

commentform = SQLFORM(db.comment)
commentform.vars.post_id = post.id

This populates commentform with the current post id.

How can I do this with crud.create? (I know I need to use the onaccept
method of crud.create but I'm stuck.)

[web2py] Re: Inform user of registration approval

[Massimo Di Pierro]

The process of approval consists of editing the auth_user record. If
you do it via appadmin there is no way. If you create your own action
to approve a record you could send an email. You still have to code it
but it a few lines.

[web2py] Re: auth.signature

[Massimo Di Pierro]

I agree I was thinking about it. Use case:


Instead of:

db.define_table('message',Field('body'))
form = crud.create(db.message)
form = crud.update(db.message,message_id)

do

db.define_table('message',Field('body'),auth.signature)
form = crud.create(db.message)
form = crud.update(db.message,message_id,onaccept=crud.archive)

Now all records are timestamped, signed by the author, and versioned.

[web2py] Re: Additional Queries on Login.

The idea is correct but f should be the form and you should not save a
record in session without converting to a python dict.

def load_settings(form):
 settings = db.settings(db.settings.user == form.vars.id)
 session.settings = settings.as_dict()

auth.settings.login_onaccept = lambda form:load_settings(form)

Not in python. It has no tail recursion so it will crash the

Re: [web2py] Re: Additional Queries on Login.

[David J.]

Fantastic;

I got it working another way; but I will change to this much more concise;

I called auth.user.id instead which worked;

Is there any drawbacks to the way I did it? I think one uses the 
authenticated user while yours passes the form that was just submitted...


Thanks.

The settings are read only on that page they click a link to modify the

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

[David J.]

how about "secure" or "enable_ssl" or "transport" or "is_secure"

Although "secure" is probably the most intuitive;

Good.

This *could* be an option to URL, since it has internal access to request. 
Suppose we added arguments URL(..., secure=None, host=None).

This case would mean the current behavior. Secure could be True or False for 
https/http. Host could be a string.

Specifying just a host would mean: use scheme from request.env.

Specifying just secure True/False would mean: use host from request.env.

The host&  scheme would be prepended after all rewriting.

I'm leaning toward the syntax below. An alternative to 'secure' is 'scheme', in 
which case the values would be 'http' or 'https', or True to use the scheme in 
request.env. The last option isn't explicit with 'secure', but I don't think 
it's required.

[web2py] Hosting Web2py on Domain.com

[Ahmed Bani]

Hello,

I am new to the web2py community, and I am so exited to start on my first 
application.

I have two questions:

1- Can I upload web2py to domain.com ? ( They have gave me some information 
about their CGI and python support which I posted below my questions, here)

2- What folders do I have to upload to the server to make it work (other 
than admin, examples, welcome folders) ? 

Best regards,

Tazjel


*The following information is from domain.com *


The Common Gateway Interface is a way of connecting your web pages to other 
programs that are running on the server which visitors wouldn't normally 
have access to. Most corporate web sites on the Internet today make use of 
CGI programs or scripts to allow their visitors to browse online catalogues 
or keep track of their orders in real time.

You have an ability to use CGI scripts on your website. The subdirectory 
"webspace/cgi-bin" located in your home directory is intended for storing 
your cgi files.

Before testing that CGI really works, devote a couple of minutes to read the 
information you might find necessary.
Paths and Versions:
Perl Version5.8.1.
Path to Perl/usr/bin/perl
GID48
Supported Extensions.pl, .cgi

Python Version2.5.1
Path to Python/usr/local/bin/python
Supported Extension.py Supported ModulesBase Modules, 
MySQLdb

Path to Sendmail/usr/sbin/sendmail
Operating SystemRedHat Linux

CGI Directory/cgi-bin/

The URL to your CGIs is as follows: http://domainname/cgi-bin/cgi-script
Replace the “domainname” with the real name of your domain and “cgi-script” 
with the script name.

Here are some tips for you to bear in mind when using CGI:
• Perl-scripts being transferred via FTP should be in “ASCII” code, not in 
“binary”.
• All scripts are executed only in cgi-bin directory.
• After uploading cgi-script change its permission to 755. Use the PEM File 
Manager to do this quickly.

Has anyone tried running trac using web2py?

Someone suggested using we2py as a "portable" python, so I'm wondering
if web2py can help me run trac from USB drive, etc.

[web2py] Am I asking wrong? (I got no aswers)

[Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi all,

I'm really interested in learning web2py for developing some ideas. But
this is the third time I get no answer from the community. The first two
posts were about how to deal with an error on Instant Press installing
(in Spanish and English mailing list) and the last one was about making
a plugin_wiki the default page instead of the usual one, using
routes.py. None of them got a proper answer and I know that this is a
newbie friendly community where people help/comment on a voluntary
basis, but I'm starting to wonder if I'm making something wrong to get
my mails ignored collectively with that regularity. May be people
doesn't have time or want to answer, but I see another questions got
answered and the talk is running more easily while mines are not. May be
is because I'm too newbie, may be I'm making the wrong questions or may
be is because I'm not a developer and I'm more interested in
understanding the social practices through web2py that web2py itself,
but If I'm making something wrong and that's why I got no answers I will
be willing to help the proper way.

Cheers,

Offray

Your cgi file will be cgihandler.py. Note that CGI deployment is going to be 
slow.

The core of web2py is in gluon; you'll need that, but you can leave out 
gluon/tests and probably gluon/contrib (upload individual files if you need 
them). There are some random files like VERSION that web2py expects to see.

Or go ahead and upload the whole mess; it's not that big, and the extra bits 
will do no harm.

I'd try this to begin with: get the web2py source download. Upload it to your 
cgi-bin directory, into its own subdirectory cgi-bin/web2py/. 

Your URL will be http://domainname/cgi-bin/web2py/cgihandler.py (you can worry 
about making it prettier later, especially if you have access to .htaccess). 
Accessing that URL should give you the front page of the welcome app.

I don't recall offhand what you need to do to get administrative access (the 
admin application), but I think you'll need SSL access.

[web2py] how may I do this (block and unblock buttons for admin dashboard)

[Richard Vézina]

Hello,

I would create button to block or unblock user access, so I made those
function :

def block_access():
"""
UPDATE auth_user
SET registration_key='blocked'
WHERE auth_user.registration_key = ''
  AND auth_user.email <> 'myem...@mydomain.com'
"""
db((db.auth_user.registration_key == '') & (db.auth_user.email != '
myem...@mydomain.com')).update(registration_key='blocked')
db.commit()

def unblock_access():
"""
UPDATE auth_user
SET registration_key=''
WHERE auth_user.registration_key <> 'pending'
"""
db(db.auth_user.registration_key !=
'pending').update(registration_key='')
db.commit()

Now I would call those function from a link or a button from index or admin
dashboard...

I would know if there is a other way except this :

def index():
block_access=A(T('block access'),_href=URL(r=request,c='default',
f='block_access'))
unblock_access=A(T('unblock access'),_href=URL(r=request,c='default',
f='unblock_access'))
return dict(block_access=block_access, unblock_access=unblock_access)

Since I will need to modify the block and unblock function like this :

def block_access():
"""
UPDATE auth_user
SET registration_key='blocked'
WHERE auth_user.registration_key = ''
  AND auth_user.email <> 'myem...@mydomain.com'
"""
db((db.auth_user.registration_key == '') & (db.auth_user.email != '
myem...@mydomain.com')).update(registration_key='blocked')
db.commit()
redirect(URL(r=request,c='default', f='index'))

Is there an other way by not utilising redirection?

Thanks

Richard

Re: [web2py] how may I do this (block and unblock buttons for admin dashboard)

[Alexandre Andrade]

If I understand the concept, when you set a registration_key in auth_user
table (any value), it don't allow the user to login.

If you want to restrict acess in a menu, I do the following, using
auth_groups, auth_permission and auth_membership:

(you have to create groups, assign permission to them, and them assign the
user to a group)

response.menu = [
(T('Index'), False, URL(request.application,'default','index'), [])
]


if auth.has_permission('representante',''):
response.menu+=[
(T('Conselho Municipal'), False, URL(request.application,
'conselho_municipal', 'index'),
 [
(T('Cadastro'), False, URL(request.application,
'conselho_municipal', 'cadastro')),
(T('Nomeação'), False,  URL(request.application,
'conselho_municipal', 'nomeacao')),
(T('Posse'), False, URL(request.application,
'conselho_municipal', 'posse')),
(T('Conselheiros'), False, URL(request.application,
'conselho_municipal', 'conselheiros')),
(T('Atas'), False, URL(request.application,
'conselho_municipal', 'atas')),
]
   ),

[web2py] Setting the title tag

[Lorin Rivers]

One of the mental challenges I have with mvc/layout approach is how to assign 
values from the "inside-out". Almost all the work I have done so far is in the 
views.

I'd like to dynamically change the title tag (e.g.,  in the  
element).

How does that work?

[web2py] Crud formstyle perhaps?

[greenpoise]

I am trying to align a crud form horizontally. That is with labels on
top, fields on bottom and they should run across horizontally on the
page. Is crud.settings.formstyle my answer?? Any good example out
there? I searched on the groups with no success...I did find some talk
about it but I just dont know where to code it. The book shows me
this:

crud.settings.formstyle = 'table3cols' or 'table2cols' or 'divs' or
'ul'

Which I dont understand. Appreciate the help

Thanks in advance

[web2py] Re: Setting the title tag

[DenesL]

If you are using the default layout.html file then just set
response.title to whatever title you want.

Re: [web2py] Crud formstyle perhaps?

[Richard Vézina]

use 'divs'

Give:
Form
label1
input1
comment1
label2
input2
comment2
etc.

That seems what you looking for...

For comparaison purpose :
table3cols will give :
Form
label1,input1,comment1
etc.

Re: [web2py] Re: Book needs to be updated

[Richard Vézina]

Yeah I thought about it.

We can put a frame around the screenshot... But it will make harder to have
unity between screenshot if it not the same person that make all of them...

Is it that important??

Or we can make a script in gimp for cropping.

However, following Mr. Jonathanś instructions will help me to learn more

Mr. Jonathn, I appreciate your help. I will follow your instructions. Then, 
I will update everybody about the results of this project.

[web2py] Re: Problems installing Instant Press

[pbreit]

Try downloading the appliance to your hard drive and then installing it as a 
file from your hard drive.

[web2py] Re: Am I asking wrong? (I got no aswers)

[Massimo Di Pierro]

I apologize Offray. There is nothing wrong in your posts.

Personally I cannot answer the Instant Press posts because that is not
as much about web2py as it is about an application. I think you should
contact the author for help with it.

About plugin wiki post. It just got lost in the todo list.

Let's say you want to redirect

/yourapp

to

/yourapp/plugin_wiki/page/name

then you would create a file web2py/routes.py that contains

routes_in = [('/yourapp','/yourapp/plugin_wiki/page/name')]

I hope this answers the question. If not please bring it up again.

Anyway, make sure you are running either web2py stable or the current
nightly build. Trunk is always untable and can cause some of the
problems you had with Instant Press, although I am not sure about your
specific problem.

Probably just a coincidence.
As you noted the provided support is free and it is limited by the
person's availability and knowledge.

But, and this is a general comment to all seeking help here, try to
make it easy for others to help you by providing as much relevant info
as you can, maybe even an app that illustrates the case (when
applicable), search the manual and previous post first, make an effort
and show that you did.

Replace

f='block_access'))

with


block_access=BUTTON(T('block access'),_onclick="ajax('%s',[],null);" %
URL('block_access'))

Mind this will only block login, not users already logged-in, unless

[pbreit]

I'm working in the same office as DotCloud so can relay any feedback you 
have. Good group.

[web2py] Coding Dojo

[contatogilson...@gmail.com]

Como expliquei no email anterior, o coordenador da UNEB disponibilizou o
local e os materiais (projetor + computador) para o encontro. Antes de mais,
nada, o formulário de inscrição que foi disponibilizado, tem o total de 25
inscritos da comunidade.

Isso extrapola o limite recomendado de um Coding Dojo (que é de 15 a 17
pessoas). Além disso, o coordenador nos deu uma condição para aceitar o
nosso encontro: que os alunos podessem participar (se quiserem).

Então, o número de participantes vai aumentar, e com isso queria expor
algumas coisas:

1 - Essa é uma ótima oportunidade de divulgarmos a linguagem Python nas
faculdades (como na UNEB), sendo que isso é um dos princípios desse  grupos;

2 - Temos a escolha de aceitarmos ou não essa condição, mas sabendo que o
evento vai ser cancelado por falta de local adequado;

Sinceramente, não queria cancelar, porque seria uma forma de reunirmos e
praticarmos, além de juntar todos e nos conhecermos. O que proponho:

1 - Dependendo da quantidade de inscritos, dividir em grupos de 15 pessoas;
2 - Cada grupo estará em uma sala (com projetor + computador), além de um
couch, para coordenar o Dojo para seguirem as regras e não sairem do
propósito: resolver o desafio proposto dentro do horário;
3 - Os alunos que souberem Python (pelo menos o básico) vão participar, caso
contrário vão somente acompanhar;
4 - Os Dojo irão acontecer simultaneamente.

O que precisamos até então é de pessoas (da comunidade) que disponham em
serem couch, para que cada encontro seja organizado. Com isso quero saber
com quem posso contar para ser couch nesse encontro?

[web2py] Re: Setting the title tag

[DenesL]

I am not sure what you want to do.
Usually response.title is set in the controller.
If you want to do it in the view you would have to set it before the
extend:

{{response.title='not very dynamic'}}
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
...

Note that you can use your own layout.html, even name it differently.
Have a look in layout.html and see how title is set.

For blocks to work you would also need blocks in the layout, for
example copy layout.html as layout2.html and add the block-end pair as
shown:

{{block mytitle}}
{{=response.title or request.application}}
{{end}}

and in your view:

{{extend 'layout2.html'}}
{{block mytitle}}
not very dynamic
{{end}}

Re: [web2py] Re: Setting the title tag

[Lorin Rivers]

Denes,

I'm a little dense. You sent me down the right path and I just had to struggle 
with it a little.

I didn't realize you could simply build response.title in in the controller and 
it "just works".

Then I had to unroll the tuple I built.

It's all good now, though! Thanks!

In case someone stumbles upon this thread, here's what I did:

controller:
theTitle = ctab.title, str(timestart), "to", str(timeend)
response.title = " ".join(theTitle)

layout.html:
{{=response.title or URL()}}

BUTTON not working, but it works without redirection with A(T('block
access'),_onclick="ajax('%s',[],null);" %
URL('block_access'))... I don't think that it validate with no _href... With
_href='' it seems to point on default/index

[web2py] Re: Inform user of registration approval

[bluemoth]

I forgot to thank you in my first post. I expected you to be the one
who would answer. I don't know how you answer all these questions.
Thanks very much.

Yes, I had assumed there was no callback for a record change given I
couldn't find anything. I had assumed the way to do it is to create a
controller.

Thanks again.

Cheers, Duane.

Re: [web2py] Trying to use a plugin_wiki page as default for a web2py site

[Anthony]

Hi Offray,
 
I haven't used plugin_wiki, and I'm no routes expert, so I'm sure someone 
else can provide more detailed help, but this should get you started.
 
When you have a plugin_wiki URL like this:
 
http://127.0.0.1:8000/myapp/plugin_wiki/page/test
 
'page' is the function in the 'plugin_wiki' controller, and 'test' is an 
argument in request.args. 'test' does not get passed to 'page' as a function 
argument -- rather, 'test' is available to the 'page' function via the 
global 'request' object (i.e., in request.args). You can see this in the 
plugin_wiki source code: 
http://code.google.com/p/cube2py/source/browse/controllers/plugin_wiki.py#24. 
So, you can't do 'page(test)' as you first tried, since 'page' does not 
accept arguments. Instead, 'page/test' is the right form, but unfortunately, 
default_function only accepts a function and not request arguments, so you 
can't do default_function = 'page/test' either. I think the only way to do 
what you want is probably to use the routes_in/routes_out functionality 
described here: http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/04#URL-Rewrite.
 
I'm not sure if this is quite right, but maybe something like:
 
routes_in = ( ('/', '/welcome/plugin_wiki/page/test') )
 
Hope that helps.
 
Best,
Anthony

[web2py] Re: Trying to use a plugin_wiki page as default for a web2py site

If routes are a problem,  then one idea is to simply create a wiki
page named for example 'home' and then alter the default controller
index function:

def index():
redirect(URL(c='plugin_wiki',f='home'))

good, bad, or indifferent, because of varied testing and deployment setups,

Thanks. I'd forgotten about port; I'll add that as well.

Good idea for frame.  Multiple people can make screenshots (e.g. let's
say Massimo assigns a captain to each chapter, and they manage the
work) but I still say that we must make a special theme/layout to be
used for book screenshots, and the layout/theme must be shared with
all the captains, so that the theming of all the screenshots is
correct.

Sure, that kind of thing is no problem, I would actually prefer to use
PIL over Gimp.

Do we want to handle websocket URLs as well (i.e., ws and wss 
schemes instead of http and https)?

That's an implementation detail!  sys.setrecursionlimit(n) can get you
quite far, however :)

The main problem with using recursion is that most colleagues will be
unable to understand or debug your code.   This is by far the greatest
value consideration, and very few problems justify recursion when
python is so richly packed with intelligent iterators and generous
generators.

I'm happy to help. Looks like most of the screenshots include the browser

I don't know. Is there an RFC yet?

I've sent Massimo a patch already, but I could redo it to directly specify 
scheme= instead of secure=, and allow an arbitrary string.

Now would be the time...

OK, I made the change. scheme='wss' (for example) works. 

scheme=True uses the scheme from request.env

Re: [web2py] Re: URL secure flag.

[David J.]

So then we would use scheme='https' for secure and forget the secure flag?

I don't know. Is there an RFC yet?

I've sent Massimo a patch already, but I could redo it to directly 
specify scheme= instead of secure=, and allow an arbitrary string.


Now would be the time...


OK, I made the change. scheme='wss' (for example) works.

scheme=True uses the scheme from request.env

Right. It's a little more general, since 'secure' could also imply 'wss'.

yes of course. Unfortunately that throws an error that heading is

[web2py] Web2py and Sencha (Extjs)

[mikech]

Has anyone looked at the recent Extjs developements or Sencha Touch?  I'm 
nowhere ready to do this, but would it be fairly simple to make use of this
library.  It seems to have a very complete set of business type widgets.   
Is anyone using it?

[web2py] dal feature request

[elffikk]

hi Massimo,

I would like to have something like sqlsoup,
but I don't need it to inspect database to do class mapping or so
I am just interested to use dal syntax without defining my tables
( they are already in the database)

When I have to develop database parts I have 2 scenarios:
- everything is built from scratch
- database already exists and I should build some functionality
without altering database

for first scenario the current dal is great, web2py handles for me
database creation, migration, etc

for second part I am forced to define tables (or to use a tool that
generates dal equivalent  structure)
but I think I don't need that, I would like an option that will let
dal expression to behave like simple sql,
without checking if table is defined or if sql fields are part of this
table, and to let my self to be sure that table and fields names are
correct

I think it should look like that

db = DAL('conn string', define_tables=False)
db(db.table1).select()
db.table1.insert(field1=1, field2='aa')

I think that is possible because DAL expressions are translated to sql
then executed,
and this implementation will need just to skip some checking in the
code

PS: I'm ok if sqlforms will not work in this mode

[web2py] Project: Web2py @ webfactional.com

[Ahmed Bani]

Hello my new community,

I have followed your suggestion and created an account at webfactional.com 
to host my web2py project at Webactional.

They have set up my account and installed web2py for me quickly!

Questions: 

1- Can you give me some instructions to get ( Web2py) Admin Area to work on 
webfactional.com ? 

   a. It keeps asking me for a password. Is it because that I have changed 
their password that I have just received for my new account, or do I have to 
follow certain instructions to log in my Administrator Area for web2py at 
Webfactional. 

2- Can you give me some new resources to read and learn how to get my web2py 
projects done at webfactional.com ?

# Some of the references that I have found by searching on google ( all over 
the Internet) are old , so I am looking forward to get some of your tips and 
advises. 

# Note ( I could not get it my web2py to work on domain.com , but I will 
keep trying some methods later and update my last topic on this group). 

Best regards,

Re: [web2py] Test if client has javascript

[Panupat Chongstitwattana]

Fist thing that comes to mind is the http-user-agent. I'm not sure if
javascript is stored in there but try print this via your browser

os.environ.get("HTTP_USER_AGENT")

see if that gives you anything.
