[web2py] Re: controller return list instead of string or dict
can you explain better what's going on ? the generic json view (as any other view) is made to serialize a python object to something (in json's case, a json string). If you already return a string because your code encodes it already, than you don't need any view, because the job the view usually does has been done already by your code.

even if you just read a table and you want to read that table with a DAL select, you need to code the model in your application. just set migrate=False on the table definitions if tables are already there, and DAL will be happy to work with them On Tuesday, July 30, 2013 7:42:54 AM UTC+2, Monika Yadav wrote: > > > > On Monday, July 29, 2013 7:33:21 PM UTC+5:30, Niphlod wrote: >> >> there's no default "read-only" in client-side libraries that connects to >> a database.

[web2py] Re: How write subquery of LEFT JOIN using DAL?
You cannot do this with DAL in one query but there may be other ways. What is you model? Do this table have an id field? If I understand in english: - you have a table called value with fields "indicator", "client_date", "value", "checked" - you first select all distinct values of indicator and for each of them you find the one with the min(client_date) - then if the value of this record is "checked==T" you select the record else you discard it - for each resulting record you select all fields If the table has a unique record "id" this can more easily be done with db.value.client_date.belongs(subselect). Queries this complex are often a sign of design problems. It would be easier to have a column "first" which you set to true for the first entry of each "indicator". Than you select would be very simple and much faster. I personally do not want to support queries like this in web2py. It would be easy to add logic in DAL to support but in my opinion this should be discouraged.

[web2py] Re: I have some questions about Central Authorization Service (CAS)
When you visit the forum page if the corresponding requires_login() than it would automatically redirect to myapp (check that you are logged in) and back as you expect. But if you visit an action that does not require login, web2py does not assume that you need to be logged in and does not check whether you are logged in into the provider app (myapp). That is why in this case you need to trigger the action by pressing login. If you need to be logged in to use forum, you should add the requires_login() decorators to all the actions. If the provider app (myapp) uses social login (for example has a private/janrain.key file) CAS should work with social login. In this case the issue is, do you need CAS in this case?

However you need have compatible foreign keys in linked tables (integer foreign keys with appropriate values for primary key "id"). If you already have a different style of primary/foreign keys, then connection is possible, but it will be not easy. It's better to redesign primary/foreign keys in such case. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.

)
And when I try to register an user web2py gives me this error
'Row' object has no attribute 'area_id'
If I comment the virtual field it just works but the problem is that I use
that virtual field in another controller and it works just fine, I dont
know why I does not works when enter to form to register an user.
any ideas?

[web2py] Re: controller return list instead of string or dict
We've got a controller with a restful method (using the @request.restful decorator), which makes calls over a json rpc socket and then returns the result. Sometimes the result of the json rpc call is a list of strings, which is properly converted back into python as a list type. When we do "return locals()" at this point (a la the rest services example in the book), even with a forced request.extension = 'json' and response.view = 'generic.json' the value is not rendered as json but instead as just a plain string. My sense is because python is following the path in main.py that I mentioned previously, determining the result is not a dict, and therefore not running any of the views on it (hence generic.json is not being called/used). Further, its just passing the list of strings along and python is concatenating that into just a single string. It's not ideal for us to manually convert the result to a string just for this case where everything else works just fine by making it into the generic.json view. This used to "just work" for us because we did manual json.dumps conversion of the data, but this is the whole point of generic.json right?

Re: [web2py] Re: How to create a hyperlink from a display field in sqlForm?
Okay...I have this so far
db.TaxonomyDetail.objectID.represent = lambda ObjectSuperType,record
: A(db.TaxonomyDetail.objectID, _target = "_blank", _href =
'manage_object_super_type')
But
1. record: A(db.TaxonomyDetail.objectID displays literally instead of the
field contents
2. Link goes to the correct controller but all records are selected. How
do I get it to choose the correct record in the table?
thanks,
Alex

You'll see that I've added the basic json loading in there, but that is not the actual issue. The issue is that a python list is returned, instead of a dict or just a string, therefore bypassing any of the generic views and auto-concatenating the list into a single string when accessed.

We have a new feature at web2pyslices.com to share information on public web2py projects. If you developed some web2py app, plugin, module, source code or tools in general that could be used with web2py, and you want to make it publicly available, you can simply add it to web2pyslices packages as with any other article. Here's how to do it: - Login with your registered account. If you don't have a user account, you can get a free one at https://www.web2pyslices.com/person/account/register - Open https://www.web2pyslices.com/slice/new/Package (or go to Create a slice -> Package) - Fill the package information form. That's it. Now your posted resource will be available so other users can browse or search for available web2py tools. This feature can be used in next versions of the admin app to browse and add/update diferent resurces (i.e. plugins), specially those that use version control systems. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.

A few comments: - At the very bottom of the form, there is a heading that says "Right Sidebar". - In the actual right sidebar, there is an additional "License" dropdown -- presumably this is left over from the recipe/article post types, but seems a bit odd and confusing here given that there is already a "License" dropdown in the main form (with different choices). - In the Package Type dropdown, what's the difference between appliance and app? Maybe just stick with app (or otherwise explain the difference). - Also, instead of "Python source", "Python module/library" might be more clear. Great work.

Thanks Alan. Could you give an example how to share db.py and other function under models/ folder (say menu.py) across applications?

I'm okay with leaving just app anyway because the difference seems to be subtle.

[web2py] Re: Web2Py + TurnkeyLinux and Apache
Let me clarify the situation. I am using the TKL Web2Py Appliance and
deploying my Web2Py application through the TKL Hub. My application is
"myapp". I log in to the TKL Hub with SSL (this works just fine). I access
the page for my applications server via SSL:
https://hub.turnkeylinux.org/servers/ (this is all ok).
Now when I click on the link for my application or the public IP for my
application I get the following error: ("The site's security certificate is
not trusted"). I can access this page, but with no SSL. Also, any following
user logins to my application is in the clear (no SSL).
The Web2Py TurnKey Linux Appliance is supposed to be "out of the box with
SSL". I'm not sure exactly what that means. Should SSL just work as is, or
do I need to purchase a certificate and if so where does my applications'
certificate it go?
thanks, James

[web2py] Re: Problem with virtual field
I just ran into this one. It turns out that the row you want may be inside
the row variable passed, with the table name as its key. How does this
happen? If you have a select that has variables from several tables, for
instance.
I did come up with a workaround, but it's a little, uh... "idiomatic".
lambda row: db.area(row.get('station',row).area_id).name
The clause "get('station',row)" will test the row variable for an embedded
row with the table's name as its key. If no such embedded row is found, it
defaults to returning the rwo variable itself. This has the effect of
trying to look up the table name key and falling back to assuming its just
a simple row.

[web2py] Accessing db from the module
I've been using current to access the db in my modules, but I would like to modularize my modules a bit so that I don't rely as much on current. I was wondering why db seems to not be accessible from the modules when passed by a caller and saved through the init statement. In other words, if I were to call Module(db) or as in Auth(db), it seems that if the module isnt able to commit to the db. Auth clearly is able to do this, and I believe I am following the Auth as an example well enough, but I thought there might be some peculiarities to modules that I am not aware of as clearly auth accesses the environment in a special way as well.

[web2py] Re: I have some questions about Central Authorization Service (CAS)
Hi, Thanks for the reply. Because I would like to integrate local account with social account, people can choose to login with social account or create an account on the website. That's the reason I think CAS is needed. Back to the issues, is it possible for me to pretest the login process before rendering a view? Like a menu bar with a function "Login" or "Profile". If logged in, it shows "Profile", otherwise if not. In the origin scenario, only after I click "Login", "Login" would change to "Profile". However I have already login at other domain. This is kind of impossible, right? Because session data is not shared between these two domains.
