Moving to production problems

[Rotem Tamir]

Hi all,

I'm just installing a new TG2.1 app on a fresh new Ubuntu server.

Finished installing everything went great but when I tried:

paster serve --reload development.ini

I got this error

from tg.render import render_genshi
ImportError: cannot import name render_genshi

Seems like this is standard and should work out of the box, what am I
missing?

Uhm, is it render_genshi used inside your code?

If that is the case, please take in mind that the renderers should not
be accessed directly, render_genshi function has been removed in one
of the latest releases.

To render a genshi template you should use tg.render.render({},
'genshi', 'myapp.template.whatever')

A new problem has arised,

I have a TG scheduler running a task that mails users every so often,
I wanted to use genshi to format the emails properly.

However render.render is looking for the request (which obviously
doesn't exist in a cron job) so it breaks.

What should I do? Is there an alternative method to rendering genshi
in tg?

File "/home/project/web/project/project/lib/utils.py", line 323, in
render_email
rendered_cnt = render(params, 'genshi', 'project.templates.emails.
%s' % tmpl)
File "/home/project/project-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
TurboGears2-2.1.
3-py2.7.egg/tg/render.py", line 208, in render
tg_vars = _get_tg_vars()
File "/home/project/project-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
TurboGears2-2.1.
3-py2.7.egg/tg/render.py", line 153, in _get_tg_vars
identity = request.environ.get('repoze.who.identity'),
File "/home/project/project-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
Paste-1.7.5.1-
py
2.7.egg/paste/registry.py", line 137, in __getattr__
return getattr(self._current_obj(), attr)
File "/home/project/project-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
Paste-1.7.5.1-
py
2.7.egg/paste/registry.py", line 197, in _current_obj
'thread' % self.____name__)
TypeError: No object (name: request) has been registered for this

In this case, you're not actually rendering genshi from TurboGears, so we have to recommend something different: Use the render method from Genshi, and render directly.

just for future reference the way to do this is

from genshi.template import TemplateLoader, loader
email_loader =
TemplateLoader([loader.package('project.templates','emails')])

def render_email(tmpl,params):
tmpl = email_loader.load('%s.html' % tmpl)
return tmpl.generate(**params).render()
