[web2py] web2py default application suggestion

I'm fairly new to web2py and had a question early on. How could I make a app I created in web2py show up by default. Not that I didn't like the "welcome" app but I wanted to set my own as default. Somebody in IRC #web2py told me to rename my app to "init" which worked. There wasn't a way I s

[web2py] How do I set web2py applications as separate virtualhosts?

Re: [web2py] Re: web2py default application suggestion

Thanks that helps me understand a bit better. Being a newbie I'd suggest just having the one example. When looking I didn't really know what the files were or that they are competing methods to do the same thing. Even if the naming is better like you suggest, it would still make me wonder

[web2py] Re: video about new RESTful APIs

Ah this is great. I love the video and the examples on this post work nice. By the way which voice app is that you use for your recordings. Cepstral maybe. It's a very pleasant voice? *Question:* What is the difference between RESTful APIs and CRUD? I've been going through the web2py book

[web2py] Best way to have dynamic user created Questionnaire?

I needed to create a app with a questionnaire, easy enough. But the needs of questionnaire keep changing. It has eventually evolved into something where the user needs to be able to change the questionnaire and be able to add new ones. I'm having trouble figureing out the best way to allow a

Ah, thanks. I'll take a look. I did find a PHP app that does most of what I need http://www.limesurvey.org/ I'm trying to take it apart to see how it works.

[web2py] Wizard bug when creating a table auth_group

I wanted to try the Wizard out. Very kick ass by the way. But I found a bug. I wanted a group table so I specified a "auth_group" table. I added group onto auth_user as well. That caused it so I got all sorts of errors in the created app. Any page I would go to I would see " KeyError: 't_

[web2py] Re: Wizard bug when creating a table auth_group

Ah, got it. Thanks for the help. I didn't know auth_user created those tables along with it. In case anybody is wondering it looks like it creates the following tables: auth_event auth_group auth_membership auth_permission auth_user Thanks again, -Keith

[web2py] Access Control not in db.py?? How to modify?

I'm still learning web2py, I'm working on access control and was confused by a few things I was hoping to understand better. 1 - Why is auth_user in db.py, but none of the other auth_ tables are? 2 - If I wanted to add or modify any of the auth tables, how would I do that? auth_user is in db.p

[web2py] Re: Access Control not in db.py?? How to modify?

I appreciate the help. I'll give the plugin a try and read through the docs you suggested. One note. auth_user was in db.py if I created a "New simple application" or went through the "New Application Wizard". Which I is part of what was confusing me. Thanks, -Keith

[web2py] Re: Access Control not in db.py?? How to modify?

That was my bad I was looking at the wrong application. I have too many test apps that I'm playing around with :) Also I just tried the web2py.plugin.useradmin.w2p which I think is OK. It's very basic but has a nice si

[web2py] Howto create parent and children at same time?

I have a ticket system for trucks. Each ticket or parent has 1 or more loads (children). I'm having trouble figuring out how to create a (parent) and multiple children at the same time. I'm trying to avoid going through a dialog where they have to fillout a ticket, save, then add loads. I w

I would prefer to do that in the controller and not depend on javascript. It would be a big problem if javascript was turned off. Thanks for the suggestion though. -Keith
