web.py 0.34 is ready for release

[Anand Chitipothu]

web.py 0.34 is ready for release.

Changes:

* fix: boolen test works even for sqlite results (tx Emyr Thomas for the idea)
* fix issue with loop.xx variables in templetor (Bug#476708)
* hide unwanted tracebacks in debugerror
* display correct template line numbers in debugerror
* new utilities: counter, safeiter, safewrite, requeue, restack (by
Aaron Swartz)
* various form.py fixes and improvements
* automatically escape % characters in the db query (Bug#516516)
* fix non-deterministic template order (Bug#490209)
* attachment support for web.sendmail (tx gregglind)
* template.py optimizations and extension support

I'm quite excited about the template improvements and extension support.

Please test this with your software and let me know if something breaks.

re: automatically escape % characters in the db query

is this for a specific application, or everything (asking/wasn't specified)

I'm not sure what you mean by specific to an application.

In web.py 0.33, the following query would fail.

>>> db.query("SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%'")
ERR: SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%'
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
IndexError: list index out of range

The work around was to escape % with %%.

>>> db.query("SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%%'")
0.22 (1): SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%'
<web.utils.IterBetter instance at 0x16676e8>

In 0.34 this has been fixed.

>>> db.query("SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%'")
0.0 (1): SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%'
<web.utils.IterBetter instance at 0x1667580>

%% works still to provide backward-compatibility.

>>> db.query("SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%%'")
0.0 (1): SELECT * FROM thing WHERE key LIKE 'foo%'
<web.utils.IterBetter instance at 0x16676e8>

Does this answer your question?

[Greg Milby]

thank for answering so thoroughly.

i should have said is this specific to a specific database type (or is it type-agnostic)?

after reading you answers, i think it's db-agnostic/generic for sql.  (if i'm reading it correctly)

Thanks again,

Greg

Anand!

Thanks for release thing. Maybe I should have poked a little
earlier.

Also, can you tag it in github? Did you decide not to use my patch to
allow filepaths as attachments?

G.

[Greg Milby]

does this mean it 'is' out or 'not'? :)

if so - a link please ~

Many thanks for the release.
I tested 0.34 with my software and it looks good.

Just curious: When do you plan to release 0.34?
There seems to be only one open bug: 119356.

I decided to use it and pushed your patch.
