The existing tutorial is great marketing ... very compelling. However, it’s pedagogically weak.

For example there’s no explanation of MVC and not discussion of how a new developer would recognize the separation semantics.

Don’t use AddRecordForm, use FormBase instead. AddRecordForm automatically disables the primary key fields. The only other difference between AddRecordForm and FormBase is the assignment of the __check_if_unique__ property to True.
Q: How can I enable editing of the ‘id’ field on a Sprox AddRecordForm? A: Override _do_get_disabled_fields(self) in your subclass and return self.__disable_fields__[:]. By default it excludes the field(s) returned by self.__provider__.get_primary_field(self.__entity__) Or, since that is the only feature added by AddRecordForm, don’t use AddRecordForm.

the tg.config variable is created when middlware.py does the load_environment call well, not created, but updated with the ini file values, etc you can’t use it before that. But all the ini values are passed in to the make_middlware call in middlware.py so you can use them there if you need to
< peep1> hey all, i’m using TG1, and wondering what my options are for making an asynchronous HTTP request from a controller method < peep1> i want the controller to return ASAP, and don’t care about callbacks from the (long-running) HTTP request < peep1> threads don’t seem to work (they get killed off when the controller method exits), and i’d prefer not to go down the rabbit warren of twisted or similar < peep1> calling curl from subprocess seems my best option at the moment, but seems to be The Wrong Solution - any other ideas? < peep2> I’d look into threads, and find out why the thread gets killed, and then fix that. < peep1> ah, rather than started threads directly from the controller, I’ll put a queue in there, see if it helps < peep3> goodgracious: you pretty much need to fork in some way. threads will be no good as the webserver will recycle it as you found out.
< peep1> where should one place robots.txt in a tg2 installation? < peep1> ./public ? < peep2> that should work < peep2> according to pylons docs, public is searched before going through controllers < peep2> I assume this still applies with turbogears < peep1> y, that worked
< peep> map.connect(‘/{lang}/{controller}/’, requirements=dict(lang=’bg|en|ro|ru’))
