web2py stores all applications in web2py/applications
So in this folder you will find web2py/applications/admin web2py/applications/welcome web2py/applications/<yourapp> You can edit these files with any external editor that you desire. Personally I prefer WingIDE, however since I cannot afford it I use Netbeans with python plugin. I just create my project and references my applications folder, and all of my apps are version controlled as well. What has probably happened, from your description, is you had a old version of web2py, you created your app and everything, and then you downloaded a newer one in a new location. You just need to copy your applications/<yourapp> from the old web2py directory to the new one. And since web2py/applications/<yourapp> is all self contained, you can easily store this elsewhere on your computer and simlink it to the web2py/applications directory. Though keep in mind applications created through admin will always existin in web2py/applications/<yourapp>, but even then you do not need to use admin to create/or edit any of the files. -Thadeus On Thu, Feb 25, 2010 at 5:04 PM, BrendanC <bren...@gmail.com> wrote: > newbie qns - > I just d/loaded the latest version of web2py and on start up I see > that a small app I created some time ago is not listed in the app list > - the files are there in the web2py directory. > > Is there something I need to do to include missing apps (this is on > Win XP - so it's not a symlink issue afaik)? > > also - where does web2py store its files by default and is this > configurable?
