is there any difference to set variable on models or modules ? *e.g.* *models/db_connect.py* db = DAL('sqlite://test.sqlite', pool_size = 1)
*modules/db_connect.py* from gluon.dal import DAL from gluon import current db = DAL('sqlite://test.sqlite', pool_size = 1) cache = current.cache cache_time_expire = 10 cache_model = cache.ram # cache.ram, cache.disk, cache.memcache, cache.redis cache_db = (cache_model, cache_time_expire) *controllers/install.py* import db_connect def index(): db = db_connect.db db_schema_1_address.define(db = db) address_id_1 = db.address.insert(street = 'a', zip_code = '1', city = 'a', country = 'a') *controllers/api.py* import db_connect #db = db_connect.db # not worked, must use from models/db.py cache_db = db_connect.cache_db # this variable can be used from modules, no error occured db_schema_1_address.define(db = db) def response_json_rows(): if not request.env.request_method == 'GET': raise HTTP(403) table_name = request.args(0) id = request.args(1) if id.isdigit() and int(id) > 0: query = (db[table_name]['id'] == id) else: query = (db[table_name]['id'] > 0) rows = db(query).select(orderby = ~db[table_name]['id'], cache = cache_db, cacheable = True) return response.json(rows) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/sugizo/learn/python/web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line 219, in restricted exec(ccode, environment) File "/Users/sugizo/learn/python/web2py/applications/test/controllers/api.py", line 24, in <module> db_schema_1_address.define(db = db) File "applications/test/modules/db_schema_1_address.py", line 64, in define format = lambda r: \ File "/Users/sugizo/learn/python/web2py/gluon/packages/dal/pydal/base.py", line 581, in define_table raise SyntaxError('table already defined: %s' % tablename) SyntaxError: table already defined: address any ideas ? intention is to move define tables from models into modules and load it on controller when it's required, with minimal effort thx n best regards, stifan -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
