We use UUIDs for database sync. If we just include as a default=uuid.uuid4() then this doesn't work when creating multiple records in the same transaction (as they all have identical UUIDs)
We therefore created our own custom function as follows: # Reusable UUID field (needed as part of database synchronization) import uuid from gluon.sql import SQLCustomType s3uuid = SQLCustomType( type ='string', native ='string', encoder = (lambda x: "'%s'" % (uuid.uuid4() if x=="" else x)), decoder = (lambda x: x) ) uuidstamp = db.Table(None, 'uuidstamp', Field('uuid', type=s3uuid, length=64, notnull=True, unique=True, readable=False, writable=False, default="")) This was working fine up through 1.71.1. Something since has broken it (I have reverted but good to get this fixed before the next stable release) Many thanks, Fran. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
