[Grok-dev] Whats wrong wit my update method

Tue Jul 27 06:15:15 EDT 2010

  Hi,

I am pretty new in Grok Development, so sorry for (probably) trivia 
question. I have small testing application in app.py

import grok

class Awbarcode(grok.Application,grok.Container):

     def __init__(self):
         super(Awbarcode, self).__init__()
         self.title = 'AWBarcode manager'
         self.text = "basic text"
         self.next_id = 0

     def addBarcode(self,text):
         id = str(self.next_id)
         self.next_id = self.next_id + 1
         self[id] = Barcode(text)

     def deleteBarcode(self,barode):
         del self[barcode]

class Barcode(grok.Model):

     def __init__(self,text):
         super(Barcode,self).__init__()
         self.text = text

class AwbarcodeIndex(grok.View):
     grok.context(Awbarcode)
     grok.name('index')

class AddBarcode(grok.View):
     grok.context(Awbarcode)
     grok.name('addbarcode')

     def update(self,text):
         self.context.addBarcode(text)
         self.redirect(self.url('index'))

Also I have two .pt files, awbarcodeindex.pt:

<html>
<head>
<title tal:content="context/title">Barcode manager</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1 tal:content="context/title">Barcode manager</h1>
<h2>Here you can see barcodes:</h2>
<tal:block repeat="barcode context/values">
<ul>
<li tal:content="barcode/text">Barcode</li>
</ul>
</tal:block>
</body>
</html>

and addbarcode.pt:

<html>
<body>
<h2>Add barcode</h2>
<form tal:attributes="action view/url"  method="POST">
             New Barcode text: <input type="text" name="text" value="" 
/><br />
<input type="submit" value="Add Barcode Text" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

So, if I manually add some barcode text, I can see it listed on the 
index page, but when I try to add new barcode text using url:

http://localhost:8080/test/addbarcode

I can see just "A system error occurred.", not form I have in 
addbarcode.pt  and in log file is "TypeError: Missing argument to 
update(): text". I must use this to add new text to the storage:

http://localhost:8080/test/addbarcode?text=text1

After that I can finally see form and add new barcode text.

What I am doing wrong? Thanks for any help.

Best Regards
