I am having problems getting the logout link work in GAE (Python).
This is the page I am looking at.
In my template, I create a link
<p>Logout</p>
But when I click on it I get "broken link" message from Chrome. The url for the link looks like this:
http://localhost:8085/users.create_logout_url(
My questions:
Can anybody explain how this works in general?
What is the correct url for the dev server?
What is the correct url for the app server?
What is the ("/") in the logout url?
Thanks.
EDIT
This link works; but I don't know why:
<p>Logout</p>
What sort of templates are you using? It's clear from the output that you're not escaping your code correctly.
Seems to me that you want to do this instead:
self.response.out.write("This is the url: %s", users.create_logout_url("/"))
You could also pass it to your template, using GAEs implemented django templates.
from google.appengine.ext.webapp import template
...
...
(inside your request handler)
class Empty: pass
data = Empty()
data.logout = users.create_logout_url("/")
self.response.out.write(template.render(my_tmpl, {'data': data})
A useful approach is to add all sorts of info to a BaseRequestHandler and then use this as base class for all of your other request handler classes.
from google.appengine.ext import webapp
...
class BaseRequestHandler(webapp.RequestHandler):
def __init__(self):
webapp.RequestHandler.__init__(self) # extend the base class
class Empty: pass
data = Empty()
data.foo = "bar"
Then your new classes will have access to all the data you provided in the base class.
class OtherHandler(BaseRequestHandler):
def get(self):
self.response.out.write("This is foo: %s" % self.data.foo) # passes str "bar"
Hope it helps.

Hi following more or less what this article is showing for the user account stuff. In gwt I store server side the logout/login url and I pass them to the client

This question is similar to another question here on stack overflow .
I am in the process of adding tests to my wagtail site utilizing Django's StaticLiveServerTestCase. Below is an example of the code base I have at hand:
class ExampleTest(StaticLiveServerTestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.browser = webdriver.Chrome()
def test_example_test(self):
self.assertContains("Contact Page", self.browser.content)
[...]
So when I run this test with python manage.py test, the test fails because I there is a 500 error. Please recall that I am using wagtail and NOT Vanilla Django alone. I am also using Django's Site framework as opposed to Wagtail's Site framework as allauth only allows for usage with Django's Site framework.
After applying the #override_settings(DEBUG=True) to the test like this:
#override_settings(DEBUG=True)
class ExampleTest(StaticLiveServerTestCase):
def setUp(self):
self.browser = webdriver.Chrome()
def test_example_test(self):
self.assertContains("Contact Page", self.browser.content)
[...]
The test still fails as the page that is being loaded is the wagtail default page.
My question is, how do I set up another page as the root/default wagtail page such that when a request to localhost:8000 [or any other port number given by the test server] is being made to the home page (i.e. http://localhost:8000/), I see that new page instead of the wagtail default page?
Thanks.
Since StaticLiveServerTestCase creates a new [temporary] "test" database [including running migrations and migrate], wagtail literally resets all sites and pages back to it's initial state after initial wagtail start [mysite] command.
This means that if you have any other Page that you would like to be the root page, you will have to hard code the instruction to do that.
Below is a way in which this can be achieved.
It is advisable to set these instructions within the setUpClass method of a class — usually a class Main() class where other test classes can inherit from; thereby encouraging D.R.Y.
class Main(StaticLiveServerTestCase):
#classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
super(Main, cls).setUpClass()
cls.root = Page.objects.get(id=1).specific
cls.new_default_home_page = Index(
title="New Home Page Index",
slug="index",
)
cls.root.add_child(instance=cls.new_default_home_page)
cls.site = Site.objects.get(id=1)
cls.site.root_page = cls.new_default_home_page
cls.site.save()
cls.browser = Chrome()
Now my test classes (wherever they are) can inherit from this class and get the entire new home page setup instantly. For example:
# ExampleTest() inherits from Main() for ease of Wagtail Page setup: avoiding repetition of setUpClass().
class ExampleTest(Main):
def test_example_test(self):
self.assertContains("Contact Page", self.browser.title)
[...]
Hope this helps someone out there someday.
THIS SOLUTION IS VALID FOR: wagtail==2.7.4. anything above this version isn't guaranteed to work as wagtail's code base dictates. However, it's very unlikely that this wouldn't work.
I have setup my website whereby the main parental/tree structure is Home > Shop > Category > Product" with > denoting parent of.
This works fine, however when accessing a Product(Page) the url is automatically (and correctly) configured at /shop/test-category/test-product by Wagtail.
I would like to change it so that the product is actually displayed as being at the root level (even though it isn't). So if a user accesses Test Product it would be at /test-product/.
Looking through the docs, the RoutablePageMixin seems like it might do the trick but I have no idea how to go about implementing it. Any ideas?
This solution will make the product available at both URLS:
/shop/test-category/test-product/
/test-product/
Approach:
You are correct that you will need to use RoutablePageMixin, be sure to install it in your installed_apps as per the instructions before importing.
The example below adds RoutablePageMixin to your HomePage, as this is the page that will be located at the root / URL. We do a regex check and match for a single slug before a trailing /.
Then we see if we can find a ProductPage with that slug, and serve (or redirect) to that page. Finally, if there is no match, we call the home_page's serve method with the current request to handle anything else. This may be an incorrect URL or a correct sub-page URL.
Caveats:
If you have a sub-page at the same slug as a product page, the sub-page will never load, there are no smarts in this code to work around that. You could put some logic in the validation of product names and sub-page names if this becomes an issue in the future.
This does not consider SEO issues, search engines will treat these as different pages and hence you may want to think about declaring your canonical URL in your meta tags.
This does not redirect back from /shop/test-category/test-product/ to /test-product/ - that can be done by overriding the serve method on your ProductPage and redirecting to something like home_page.url + '/' + self.slug.
Example Code:
# models.py - assuming all your models are in one file
from django.db import models
from django.shortcuts import redirect # only needed if redirecting
from wagtail.admin.edit_handlers import FieldPanel
from wagtail.contrib.wagtailroutablepage.models import RoutablePageMixin, route
from wagtail.core.models import Page
class ProductPage(Page):
price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=5, decimal_places=2)
content_panels = Page.content_panels + [
FieldPanel('price')
]
class HomePage(RoutablePageMixin, Page):
#route(r'^(?P<product_slug>[\w-]+)/$')
def default_view(self, request, product_slug=None):
"""Route will match any `my-product-slug/` after homepage route."""
product_page = Page.objects.exact_type(ProductPage).filter(slug=product_slug).first()
if product_page:
# option 1 - redirect to the product's normal URL (non-permanent redirect)
# return redirect(product_page.specific.url)
# option 2 - render the product page at this URL (no redirect)
return product_page.specific.serve(request)
else:
# process to normal handling of request so correct sub-pages work
return self.serve(request)
I've got a Django app with Tastypie, and mainly BackBone client side. One of my models has a few ImageFields. Here is a similar setup to help me explain the issue.
settings.py
MEDIA_URL = "/media/"
models.py
class Foo(models.model):
bar = models.ImageField()
baz = models.CharField()
api.py
class FooResource(ModelResource):
class Meta:
queryset=models.Foo.objects.all()
resource_name = "foo"
authorization = Authorization()
When I make a GET request to the API, it appends the MEDIA_URL to the file names to return the URI where a bar can be accessed. However, when I change the value of baz on a row, and then make a PUT request with that, it also changes the value for a bar to the URI. This means that the next time I GET the row, it appends the MEDIA_URL again, breaking the system and appending it for each successive GET and PUT. I end up with values for bar in the DB that look like.
/media/media/media/bar.jpg
I think I should fix this by overriding a method in my ModelResource, so that when there is a PUT request, it recognizes that it's getting either a URI or a real file, and alters its behavior in some way.
Is this the correct fix? Could you provide some implementation details of a fix?
I found the answer. Tastypie is well designed, similarly to Django. Unfortunately I was not familiar with the terminology so when I read the docs I didn't understand. You can easily modify behavior of the API at many levels. Here is my new API definition, which fixed the issue.
api.py
class FooResource(ModelResource):
class Meta:
queryset=models.Foo.objects.all()
resource_name = "foo"
authorization = Authorization()
def hydrate_bar(bundle):
bundle["bar"] = bundle["bar"].strip(MEDIA_URL)
return bundle
I should add that this only works for me because I exclusively POST my image files individually with a post_detail method which doesn't call this method. If I was to POST or PUT image files as part of the entire row, I expect this might raise an error if that isn't considered.
I am currently work on a web app using webapp2, that deals with restaurant in several cities. Some of the url would look like
1. www.example.com/newyork
2. www.example.com/newyork/fastfood
3. www.example.com/newyork/fastfood/tacobell
To handle the first url, I used the following
CITY_RE = r'(/(?:[a-zA-Z0-9]+/?)*)'
app = webapp2.WSGIApplication([(CITY_RE, CityHandler)], debug = True)
How would I handle the url with multiple parameters such as 2 and 3.
I have a similar approach to match urls like /<country>/<region>/<city>/<category>e.g. /usa/california/losangeles/restaurants where I use this regex:
app = webapp2.WSGIApplication([('/([^/]+)/?([^/]*)/?([^/]*)', RegionSearch)], config=settings.w2config, debug=True)
The declare the relevant parameters in the handler class.
class RegionSearch(SearchBaseHandler):
"""Handles regional search requests."""
def get(
self,
region=None,
city=None,
category=None,
subcategory='For sale',
PAGESIZE=50, # items on page
limit=60, # number of days
year=2012,
month=1,
day=1,
next_page=None,
):
I think that you could even do it this way
webapp2.Route('/passwdresetcomplete/<city>/<category>/<name>', handler=RegionSearch, name='regionsearch')
I found this post from Amir in regards to redirecting request from google.appspot domain to the custom domain. My question is where do you put something like this using Web2py?
**To just add a custom domain, just follow the instructions here: http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/domains.html
And once that works, you can put a check in your code to forward anyone landing on the appspot.com domain to your domain: (example in python)
def get(self):
if self.request.host.endswith('appspot.com'):
return self.redirect('www.jaavuu.com', True)
# ... your code ...**
At the beginning of your first model file, you can do:
if request.env.http_host.endswith('appspot.com'):
redirect(URL(host='www.yourdomain.com', args=request.args, vars=request.vars))
This will preserve the entire original URL, except for replacing yourdomain.appspot.com with www.yourdomain.com. Note, URL() will automatically fill in the current controller and function, but you have to explicitly pass the current request.args and request.vars to make sure they get preserved.
That goes into your request handler.
Using example from web2py documentation:
Example 8
In controller: simple_examples.py
def redirectme():
redirect(URL('hello3'))
You'd want to do something like this:
def some_function():
if request.env.http_host.endswith('appspot.com'):
redirect(URL('www.yourdomain.com'))
With webapp2 here is something like what I did, where BaseHandler is the type of all my handlers:
class BaseHandler(webapp2.RequestHandler):
def __init__(self, request, response):
self.initialize(request, response)
if request.host.endswith('appspot.com'):
query_string = self.request.query_string
redirect_to = 'https://www.example.com' + self.request.path + ("?" + query_string if query_string else "")
self.redirect(redirect_to, permanent=True, abort=True)
