Taiwan Settings ¶

Remember to see ConfigurationGuidelines first. And here are example configuration and settings for Taiwan development and deployment.

Basic Settings ¶

After bzr checking out the codes, first time running with python web2py.py -S eden -M should fail, but generating eden/models/000_config.py file. Edit eden/models/000_config.py and remember to set FINISHED_EDITING_CONFIG_FILE = True. Here are some recommended settings:

  deployment_settings.L10n.countries = ["TW"]
  deployment_settings.L10n.utc_offset = "UTC +0800"
  deployment_settings.gis.edit_L0 = False
  deployment_settings.gis.edit_L1 = False
  deployment_settings.gis.edit_L2 = False
  deployment_settings.gis.edit_L3 = False
  deployment_settings.gis.locations_hierarchy = {
      "L0":T("Country"),
      "L1":T("Province"),
      "L2":T("District"),
      "L3":T("Town"),
  #   "L4":T("Village"),
      "L5":T("Location"), # Street Address
      "XX":T("Imported")
  }

To Import Admin Names for Taiwan ¶

Usually this is the initial and one-time work. Enter the CLI environment to run commands:

  $ python web2py.py -S eden -M

Make sure modules/s3gis.py containing utf8_csv_reader(), which is included since ​rev1413. Place L1.csv, L2.csv, L3.csv in the top level of web2py directory.

  >>> tablename = "gis_location"
  >>> table = db[tablename]
  # Example to look for a record's id
  >>> db(table.name == "Taiwan").select().first().id
  215
  # L0
  >>> db(table.name != "Taiwan").delete()
  # Here will show the number of deletion
  >>> db.commit()
  # L1
  >>> gis.import_csv("L1.csv")
  >>> db.commit()
  # L2
  >>> gis.import_csv("L2.csv")
  >>> db.commit()
  # L3
  >>> gis.import_csv("L3.csv")
  >>> db.commit()
  # Example to look for records matching a name
  >>> db.executesql("SELECT * FROM gis_location WHERE name = '光復里' and level = 'L3'")
  # Here will show a list of 13 tuples. Use SELECT count(*) in the above statement to verify.

To Enable OpenID Auth ¶

Make sure the settings in eden/models/000_config.py is ready:

deployment_settings.auth.openid = True

Use the file at ​http://www.iis.sinica.edu.tw/~marr/tmp/openid_auth.py instead of original one, placed in web2py/gluon/contrib/login_methods/openid_auth.py.

• Administration -> Messaging -> Global Messaging Settings -> Default Country Code: 886
