[Cppcms-users] Login mechanism

[Christian G. <chr...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I am very new to cppcms but I am quite far in doing a conversion of a
RoR app to cppcms.
On thing thats missing is the user login. I have a login sub-app,
which works nicely but I am looking
for a way to check if users is login in on every page access -
something like before_filter in RoR.

Does there exists some linke that in cppcms?

thanks

[Cppcms-users] Fwd: cppcms::rpc::json_rpc_server usage.

[le ba <hma...@gm...>]

Hi ,

I would like explain my questions. For example I create my dynamic
page  (like template or templates_inheritance in the example) with ajax
using json_rpc inside:

   1. Will I do a derivation from cppcms::appliaction and make a json call
   inside or
   2. Will I do a derivation from cppcms::rpc::json_rpc_server for all
   application and children.

I'd like to know if the context is shared by url dispather and
json_rpc_call or they have two different context?

Thank you Artyom.

Hi,

Instead derived from cppcms::application, my application is derived from
cppcms::rpc::json_rpc_server .
I would like to populate the dynamic page with data from a request using
ajax and json.
My Questions are:
- Is it a normal usage of cppcms framework because I don't find  an example
like this within the example that you have provided?
- If yes, are there some conditions or some style of code for this kind of
usage?

Thank you very much.

Yeah I tried cloning the string via a copy constructor:

sql << os.str() << string(ts) << string(ts);

but it made no difference. I believe string always deep copies.

In the end, instead of passing it a string, I used strptime() to convert
the string to a std::tm struct and it's working fine. Very weird.

strange strange. I don't really know if this could help, but: ts is a 
string and you give two times the same string into the 
preparedstatement. You could try to copy ts to ts2 (string ts2=ts) and 
try that again with << ts << ts2. And then if that helps, that would be 
strange though ;)

Find out what's going on there ! ^^

Re: [Cppcms-users] Bizarre prepared statement problem

[<ele...@ex...>]

UPDATE:

Something even stranger. If I replace all the hardcoded times and run it
through a prepared statement

This works(always returns 2 rows)

r = sql << os.str()
	<< "2012-05-17 23:59:59"
	<< "2012-05-17 23:59:59"
        << aircraft_id;

but this doesnt(returns sometimes 1, sometimes 2 rows):

string ts = "2012-05-17 23:59:59";

r = sql << os.str()
	<< ts
	<< ts
        << aircraft_id;

What the hell is going on here?

[Cppcms-users] Bizarre prepared statement problem

[<ele...@ex...>]

I'm truly stumped by this SQL query.

This works as expected:

SELECT * FROM af_scheduled_items i INNER JOIN af_scheduled_items_history
h1 ON h1.root_id=i.id WHERE h1.date_fitted <= '2012-05-17 23:59:59' AND
h1.id IN (SELECT max(h2.id) FROM af_scheduled_items_history h2 WHERE
h2.date_fitted <= '2012-05-17 23:59:59' AND h2.root_id=i.id) AND
h1.aircraft_id = ? ORDER BY i.id ASC

Returns 2 rows which is what's expected.

If I replace the h2.date_fitted with ?

SELECT * FROM af_scheduled_items i INNER JOIN af_scheduled_items_history
h1 ON h1.root_id=i.id WHERE h1.date_fitted <= '2012-05-17 23:59:59' AND
h1.id IN (SELECT max(h2.id) FROM af_scheduled_items_history h2 WHERE
h2.date_fitted <= ? AND h2.root_id=i.id) AND h1.aircraft_id = ? ORDER BY
i.id ASC

This returns 1 row.

And if I replace both date_fitted dates with ?

SELECT * FROM af_scheduled_items i INNER JOIN af_scheduled_items_history
h1 ON h1.root_id=i.id WHERE h1.date_fitted <= ? AND h1.id IN (SELECT
max(h2.id) FROM af_scheduled_items_history h2 WHERE h2.date_fitted <= ?
AND h2.root_id=i.id) AND h1.aircraft_id = ? ORDER BY i.id ASC

This returns sometimes 1 row, sometimes 2 rows.

Can someone with enough wisdom explain this?

I see, but the question stays - whats the best way to convert date_time to
std::tm? I'd rather not mix both ptime and date_time in the project.

Thanks!

Re: [Cppcms-users] sqlite3 CURRENT_TIMESTAMP compare to date_time

it is not ptime, booster::ptime::universal_time converts ptime to std::tm and vise versa. The overload

Re: [Cppcms-users] When will the CppCMS 1.3 be released?

[Artyom B. <art...@ya...>]

Web sockets support isn't high priority dues to several
factors:

1. Lack of standardization especially from the Web-Server <-> application communication.2
2. Lack of decent Browser support (different versions support different incompatible versions.

So I don't know when I get to work on it. There are much more tasks with higher priority,
I don't know even when 1.2 would be ready

Yes... if you use cppdb you can do it by

   sql << "select ... ?" << booster::ptime::universal_time(booster::ptime::now()) << ...

Yes it is, however it is better to use as::gmt rather that as::timezone("UTC");

This is good question.

The problem is in what time zone you refer to date. Usually
date is meaningless out of timezone scope.

What does 2011-03-04 mean? If it is in GMT time in certain time zones
it would be from 7 AM to 7 AM 

So you likely do not want to store dates in UTC, if you store
dates in UTC you likely need to store entire timestamp.

[Cppcms-users] sqlite3 CURRENT_TIMESTAMP compare to date_time

[<ele...@ex...>]

Hi,

Just a quick question.

Given a column in an sqlite database is set to DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
which is stored in UTC, and not local time and an SQL SELECT such as

SELECT * FROM table WHERE created_at < ?

and a locale::date_time object representing current time, should date_time
be first converted to UTC before being sent to the SQL query?

ie.

ostringstream os;

os << as::ftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:S") << as::timezone("UTC") << now;

1) Is this correct?

2) What if the column is not a timestamp but a date, and the query is
comparing date with date_time. Should conversion to UTC be still done?

Thanks,
Petr

See, if the 2nd select is populated by the ajax that 

means that you don't know what are the valid choices, 
that means that validate() can't actually validate
the required form.

In that case just use request().post(name) because
in any case you need your own validation logic.

[Cppcms-users] form.load(context()) doesnt work when...

[<ele...@ex...>]

a field such as select gets populated by AJAX.

Ive got 2 selects. One gets populated the usual way via select.add(name,
value) and depending on what user chooses, the 2nd select gets populated
through AJAX.

The problem is the only way to get the value is via request().post(name).

In effect this bypasses form.validate()

You can't even set the 2nd select field manually -

form.myselect.selected_id(request.post("myselect")) this causes an
exception because myselect hasn't been populated with the right values
from the beginning.

[Cppcms-users] Is there any way to get a list of key values from a JSON object?

[doug l. <bi...@gm...>]

Hi -- if I had this json object:

{
  "service": {
    "api": "http",
    "port": 3001
  },
  "http": {
    "script_names": [ "/imageservice" ]
  },
  "imageservice": {
    "secret": "sup3rs3cr3t",
    "storage": "tmp",
    "types": {
      "test-type-1": {
        "on_save": [ ".JPEG" ],
        "versions": {
          "big": [ "300x1000>" ],
          "thumb": [ "75x75#" ],
          "thumb-png": [ "75x75#", ".PNG" ]
        }
      },
      "test-type-2": {
        "on_save": [ "600x150!" ],
        "versions": {
          "gallery-jpeg": [ "50%", ".JPEG" ],
          "gallery-png": [ "50%", ".PNG" ]
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Would it be possible for me to query the JSON value object to find out that
there are two "type" values in the "imageservice" bit, and that those types
had keys of "test-type-1" and "test-type-2"?
I've been trying & failing to achieve this.
Thanks for any & all help,

Re: [Cppcms-users] getting real ip of client

[kpeo <sla...@ya...>]

Shure, question is complex and highly depends on environment.
Assumed, that we use CppCMS without any web-servers, connected to TCP/IP sockets. So can (in contrast of Unix-sockets) "see" TCP/IP fields of client's packets. 

While, my method is simple:
1. check IP in HTTP_CLIENT_IP, HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR, request().remote_addr()
2. check resulting IP on local interfaces of system.

Anyone encountered with a similar task?
Thanks anyway!

Re: [Cppcms-users] getting real ip of client

[Artyom B. <art...@ya...>]

There is request().remote_address() that helps you to deal with.

If your run behind reverse proxy, such proxies usually define headers
like X-Real-IP headers that are set to variables like HTTP_X_REAL_IP.

HTTP Proxies usually handle this correctly preventing hijacking 
such headers.

If you use internal HTTP web server take a look on 


http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_config#http.proxy.remote_addr_headers

That allow request().remote_address() behave as expected

[Cppcms-users] getting real ip of client

[kpeo <sla...@ya...>]

Hello,

Is there any way to check in CppCMS application whether client connection is local or remote (or just get real ip of client connection)?
Because any request environment like HTTP_CLIENT_IP can be faked and required low-level aio functions to get connection IP, that inaccessible in the application/service/request classes.

kpeo
