I don't have a 1:1 list, but it should be clear from the subpackage names.

containers: various container objects and dict/list helpers
date: date/time formatting
html:
- builder: HTML tag builder (exported as webhelpers.html)
- converters: convert text markup to HTML and back

interesting problem while using formbuild with pylons

krm...@gmail.com (Krishnakant) — Fri, 11 Nov 2009 16:51:03 UT

Hello all,
I have been evalueating different form building librarys.
Thanks to many friends on the list I have a pritty nice understanding of
how different libraries render forms.

I am trying my hand at formbuild right now. The most striking feature
to me was that unlike to.Forms I did not need to alter the middleware.py

I'm going to keep this thread alive.

I ended up using the containers class you mentioned. I think my
solution is _really_ similar to Tycon's solution as mentioned in the
splitting validate ticket except I don't use decorators. Somehow I
did not see his solution until I saw that ticket
([link]).

Fixture is a project created to make fixture for db models. I haven't used it myself, but it looks good.

I can confirm your problem on:
1. development environment paste http server and
2. nginx proxy pass to paste cherrypy server

Try using httplib2: [link]

it works for me.

Thanks for your help. I added a Connection: Keep-Alive header to my requests and
had some success in debugging the problem.

>>> con.set_debuglevel(1)
>>> con.request('GET', '/appinfo/', headers={'Connection':'Keep-Al ive'})
send: 'GET /appinfo/ HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: localhost\r\nAccept-Encoding:

Re: Unit tests fail after sqlalchemy mapping

bryanv...@gmail.com (Bryan) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 22:27:11 UT

I have all my mappers setup in a single function that gets called in
my pylons environment.py file during app startup. But the default
setup for pylons testing is that the base test controller sets up a
paste.fixture.TestApp so we can make HTTP calls to the app to test our
controllers. During this setup, my mapping function is called, which

W liście Bryan z dnia środa 18 listopada 2009:

You can set up mappers in setUp function in test suites that need them, and
remove them in tearDown (sqlalchemy has remove_mappers or some similarily
named function).

Personally, I don't have mappers setup as top-level functions in any module,

Cc'ing the Pylons list because the conversation started there, and
somebody may benefit from it.

If you use Apache with ProxyPass, only Apache has to worry about
HTTPS. PasteHTTPServer will run as usual, serving HTTP, but listening
only on localhost for requests from Apache or a console browser.

the paste source has a close_connection attribute / param in

maybe your app is configured to close the connection after every
request ?
or maybe httplib does that by default , and you need to request it

Unit tests fail after sqlalchemy mapping

bryanv...@gmail.com (Bryan) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 20:41:57 UT

I wrote a simple unit test for a class to test that the constructor
was handling keyword arguments correctly:
obj = Test(a='foo'')
assert obj.a == 'foo

The test passes fine when run alone, but when run with all the other
test in my pylons app, sqlalchemy complains because Test.a is actually
a relation to another mapped object, so when I try to assign a string

Hello,

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question or if the paste-users
list is more appropriate. Trying here first.

I'm trying to reuse http connections when talking to my pylons application using
httplib. However, the Paste WSGI server closes the connection before it can be
