Hi web2pytizens,

Welcome to the Web2py Documentation Project. Here we're trying to document all of the features for the web2py Enterprise Web Framework. Our goals are for the documentation to be centralized, easy-to-use, correct, complete, and up-to-date.

If you would like to contribute, thanks! Here's what to do:

  • Please make sure to read the Documentation HOWTO.
  • If you don't know what to write about, then please visit the Documentation Todo List. Pick any feature that interests you.
  • If a page already exists on the topic, then just edit that page. Otherwise, please create a new page by visiting the Pages section and clicking on the create new page link.
  • Once you have finished, please feel free to visit the Web2py Documentation page to add your work to the table of contents.

If you need help or have questions, the How To Get Help page has our contact information.

A Note About Working Offline

This wiki is currently a work in progress, however, RST is a stable formatting standard. So if you have any reservations about working on the Wiki, or you just find it easier to work offline locally, then feel free to write documentation on your own. You can upload your documentation when you are ready, and so long as you use RST markup, your work will be fully compatible with the web2py wiki and the community book.

Before you start, however, just make sure to drop by the Topics in Progress page so that other offline writers won't overwrite your efforts.

About this Wiki

  • This wiki is not just about web2py, it's actually built using web2py. Feel free to visit the official webpage.
  • This Wiki has pages, comments, attachments, tags and versions.
  • Every time you edit a page the old one is archived and it can be diff-ed.
  • If you have any questions about the Wiki itself, please visit the FAQ.
  • If you have thoughts about ways to improve this Wiki, please add them to the TODO page.
  • If you would like a safe sandbox so that you can mess around and test Wiki features, visit the Wiki Testing page.
  • The source code is now available on Launchpad. If you'd like to help make the Wiki a better place, thanks! Just pick one item from the Wiki Todo List and have fun developing.

should be greatly simplified to: www.web2py.com/wiki

Is this going to be the place for the documentation?

I also have this: https://mdp.cti.depaul.edu/web2py_wiki/default/wiki/main

I think that Massimo clearly wants the community to come together and build a decent(great even?) wiki with web2py and not use some existing wiki. He wants it to be simple so that it will not be such a burden to write (am I right?). I think that this could work... I like the idea of not using an existing wiki and writing our own... on the other hand I would need good documentation to help much with writing the wiki which is the point of the wiki so... my 2 cents is not worth that much.

searching MVC would be expected to return the 'organisation' page but does not.
