[web2py] Re: how to show login/logout auth in custom layout

[rif]

try this:

{{='auth' in globals() and auth.navbar(mode="dropdown") or ''}}

you can also remove the mode="dropdown" parameter.

[web2py] web2py apache2 setup with htaccess authorization

[Chr_M]

I come from a PHP background and when I wanted to have a website (or a 
part) behind a login screen (for example for beta testing) I could do that 
with a htaccess and htpasswd file (with Apache2). I have deployed a web2py 
website with Apache2, but I can not figure out how to have this website 
behind an Apache2 login. Is that possible with a web2py with Apache2 setup 
with a htaccess file? Or is there an alternative way to do in with web2py?

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Chris

[web2py] Re: orderby on an integer field appears to order as if field is a string

[Neil Johnson]

Thanks Massimo,

I think what happened was I coded this up without the integer tag on count, 
then realised I needed it, and added it. The first commit occurred with the 
integer tag , so as far as I could see it was always an integer.

Recreating the table fixed it

What is the most elegant way to upgrade web2py? Upgrading core is easy but 
how to deal stuff inside one particular application? Now I utilized 
BeyondCompare3 to sync all those Twitter Bootstrap and so on stuff. 

Considering this Scheduler table problem, can I some how drop all affected 
tables and get new ones automatically created? Trying to stay up to date 
with latest released version, not wanting anything from the trunk.

[web2py] Re: change writable for each record?

[Mark]

I think this can be done in "edit" page of each record. If a record is not 
editable based on some conditions, redirect it to another page.

# In edit page of each record
if len(request.args) > 2 and request.args[-3] == 'edit':
record = db[request.args[-2]](request.args[-1])
if record_not_editable:
redirect(URL(some_where_else))

[web2py] Re: web2py apache2 setup with htaccess authorization

Why do you want to use htaccess instead of web2py own authentication. 
htaccess is such a primitive system.

[web2py] Replace default /register and /login views

[Alec Taylor]

I am trying to replace these views with custom ones I've created.

So I have a folder called "user" with a "login.html" and a "register.html".

Putting this "user" folder in web2py//views does not make the
system use these views. Moving them to the
web2py//views/default folder also has no affect.

How do I use custom views for my auth.* stuff in web2py? (e.g.: so
@auth.requires_login() redirects to the modified views)

Thanks for all suggestions,

Alec Taylor

[web2py] Re: Replace default /register and /login views

[Ron McOuat]

The controller and function map to a view file so controller default and 
function user have used up those 2 levels of default view file definition.

You could set response.view = "path to html" in the user function of the 
default controller depending on arg(0) being login or register.

[web2py] Re: Replace default /register and /login views

[Anthony]

By default, web2py looks for a view with the same name as the associated 
function in a folder with the same name as the associated controller. In 
the scaffolding app, auth actions are handled by the user() function in the 
default.py controller, so it will automatically use the 
/views/default/user.html view for all auth actions. If you want to set a 
custom view, you can do something like:

def user():
auth_views = dict(login='default/login.html', register=
'default/register.html')
response.view = auth_views.get(request.args(0), response.view)
return dict(form=auth())

You could also create completely separate functions for login and 
registration.

[web2py] web2py contains pyfpdf version 1.54b, but there is version 1.7 with utf-8 support

I want to use the utf-8 character set together with pyfpdf.

[web2py] Re: Setting up memcache on GAE - a basic question

[howesc]

Andy,

what is the object that you are trying to store in memcache?  this: 
PicklingError: Can't pickle : attribute lookup 
__builtin__.function failed
implies to me that you are trying to store an object that contains a 
function  (which is not pickleable).

i can't remember the exact differences, but there are some things that are 
not pickleable and can't be stored in memcache, but can be stored in 
(non-GAE) cache.ram etc.

instead calls B with a username/password and gets back dict(user:user) 
where user is the result of auth.login_bare(username,password).  I have 
made a web2py app to mock A calling B with a Post.  I have also created the 
method in B to accept the data.   Controllers provided below.  When I make 
the call, A is correctly getting the user information based on whether or 
not B is able to log in the user.  However, when I try to navigate around 
application B's pages that are behind login, I'm told that I am not logged 
in.  

For a quick sanity check, I also created a controller marked C, that uses 
the auth.login_bare and not a POST and it works to log me into B

Can anyone please provide insight into what I need to be doing differently 
to allow A to log into B by passing username/password?


A
def test_remote_login():
form = SQLFORM(db.remote_login).process()
if form.accepted:
username = form.vars.remote_login_username
password = form.vars.remote_login_password
access_method = form.vars.access_method
import httplib, base64, urllib
params = urllib.urlencode({'username':username,
'password':password
})
base64string = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (username , 
password))[:-1]
username_password_combo = "Basic " + base64string
headers = {"Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", 
"Accept": "text/plain", "Authorization": username_password_combo}
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection(task_tracker_host_defined)
connection_url = '/tasktracker3/default/remote_login' + 
access_method
conn.request("POST", connection_url, params, headers)
r1 = conn.getresponse()
data1 = r1.read()
conn.close()
response.flash='Accepted'

[web2py] Re: Adding a scheduled task using the scheduler results in db error.

[Niphlod]

don't know how to reply "properly"  the scheduler in "stable" has some 
column names that are incompatible with check_reserved=['all']. 
If you have a db connection with check_reserved=['all'] there's no way to 
have a working scheduler in your app.
The solution is either rely on the stable scheduler and leave out the 
check_reserved parameter or use the scheduler from trunk. 

Table migrations are handled like everything else in web2py, so there's no 
change in that behaviour regarding the update.

[web2py] Re: web2py apache2 setup with htaccess authorization

[Chr_M]

I understand it is a primitive system, but also a quick way to put a 
website behind a login. I do not want to integrate an authentication 
system, because it is only for some betatesters before the website goes 
live.

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py contains pyfpdf version 1.54b, but there is version 1.7 with utf-8 support

[Martin Weissenboeck]

I have tried it now. These are my results:

(1) A text like

English: Hello World
Greek: Γειά σου κόσμος
Polish: Witaj świecie
Portuguese: Olá mundo
Russian: Здравствуй, Мир
Vietnamese: Xin chào thế giới
Arabic: مرحبا العالم
Hebrew:  שלום עולם

will be converted to pdf.

(2) But there are problems with right-to-left scripts:
שלום עולםis written as  םלוע םולש
مرحبا العالم   is written as ملاعلا ابحرم

(3) pdf.write_html seems to work only with latin-1
pdf.write_html("äöü") is written as "äöü", but
pdf.write_html("äöü".decode('utf-8').encode('latin-1') gives "äöü" - as
expected.

(4) pdf.write_html does not work with any "&...;" html-character
pdf.write_html(">") gives "#62;"


Maybe something should be improved...

[web2py] Re: logging into a web2py application from another app by passing username/password

[Massimo Di Pierro]

Hello Amber,

You do not need to reinvent the wheel for this. Web2py can do it out of the 
box.

Application B. No special code. Just any web2py application that uses Auth 
and exposes the normal default/user action.

Application A. Use decorators like @auth.requires_login() as normal but 
change 

   auth = Auth(db)

into

auth = Auth(db,cas_provider = 
'http://127.0.0.1:8000/applicaiton_B/default/user/cas')


You can read more about this here:

   http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/09?search=cas_provider

If the two applications have different domains you need to add a line like 
this in application B.

auth.settings.cas_domains.append('application_A_domain.com')

Anyway you can mimic it with web2py. In a model add:

 else: raise

[web2py] web2py auth question

[jburosh]

I have a web2py application and was curious how to go to the public 
website, enter username/password in a form (or iframe) and if 
authentication is successful, it would load the application into the 
browswer window.  Right now you click a login button and it redirects to 
web2py's login form.  Is there a way to securely pass auth credentials and 
log into the application and bypass the extra step?

Re: [web2py] Re: logging into a web2py application from another app by passing username/password

[Amber Doctor]

Hi Massimo,

I'm going to explore this option more.  Just a quick question though.  It
seems like both application A and B need to be web2py.  Is that true?
Application A isn't a web2py application.

Also I learned more about the client's criteria -- they mostly just want a
form on application A's website that has a username and password blank.  On
submit it redirects to a web2py application, authenticates the
username/password and leaves the user logged in and at a page of the web2py
application.  Will the method you described handle this or is there a
better method?

Re: [web2py] Re: logging into a web2py application from another app by passing username/password

[Massimo Di Pierro]

Yes I assumed both apps are written in web2py. Yet the protocol it uses is 
CAS 2.0 therefore that works even if application A is not written in web2py 
as long as it suports CAS 2.0.

Another possibility is, if application A runs under apache, to use the 
server access control to delegate authentication to web2py (application B). 
For this look into web2py/scripts/access.wsgi.

auth.login() already handles form processing, so you should not call 
form.accepts(), as that will not work.

web2py SQLFORM's (including the auth forms) include hidden _formname and 
_formkey fields -- if you're creating a custom form, you need to include 
those, or the form will not pass validation when submitted. If you want to 
create a custom form based on a SQLFORM, you should follow 
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/07#Custom-forms.

Also, rather than manually submitting the form via Ajax, you might consider 
putting the login form in an Ajax component (or even a non-Ajax component 
with ajax_trap set to True). In that case, web2py.js will handle the Ajax 
submission for you. In that case, you may want to create a login_onaccept 
function to avoid the usual post-login redirect (which wouldn't be useful 
for an Ajax login).

[web2py] Re: login by ajax

[Massimo Di Pierro]

Should we offer something like {{=auth.ajax_login()}} helper which submits 
to /user/login? If would not be difficult to write. 
How should it work?

[web2py] Re: login by ajax

[yashar]

thank you, i solve the problem like this:

def index():
form = auth.login()
form.elements('input',_type='submit')[0]['_Onclick']='login();return 
false;'
return dict(form=form)

def login():
if not auth.login_bare(request.vars.email,request.vars.password):
return 'login failed'
form=auth.login()
if auth.user : return 'logged'
return dict(form=form)

and in the index view:


{{=form}}


function login(){
alert('here');
$.ajax({  
  type: "POST",  
url: '{{=URL('default','login')}}',  
  data: $('form').serialize(),
success : function(data){
if (data != 'True'){
$('#login_result').addClass('alert 
alert-error').text('Email Or password were wrong! Please try again.');
} else {
   
   }
}
});  
return false;
}

[web2py] Re: login by ajax

[yashar]

is there any way that i log in user by code?

for example after checking username and password with login_bare, i push 
the user into the session as logged in user? in this case there is no need 
to write ajax/login directly, and the programmer has a better control.

if i write :

[web2py] Re: Setting up memcache on GAE - a basic question

[Andy W]

Thanks for the feedback Christian.

It seems to be this that causes the problem on GAE but works on sqlite:

students = cache.ram('students',
lambda:db(db.student.id>0).select(db.student.id, 
db.student.family_name,
...
db.student.student_age),
3600)

Any ideas?

print request.args
return dict()

# curl -X GET localhost/fruit/salad/foo
