I'm trying to build a Flask web application that should use some Google APIs (in particular Calendar). Users in the web application are already registered using a custom module, so Google is not used for login.
In my application logged users should associate once their Google account to allow the use of APIs to handle their calendar. I've tried to follow the Google example, but it creates a local server which is accessible just locally and does not allows to have a link to embed into a button in a webpage.
I assume to have a structure like this:
#app.routes('/allow_calendar')
def allow():
link = get_googleAuthLink();
return render_template('page.html', link=link);
#app.routes(/'submit_token', methods=['POST'])
def submit_token():
....
save token received in db
With a page like
<body>
<a href={{ link}}>Click here to authorize</a>
<form action="{{ url_for('submit_token') }}" method="POST">
<input type="text" id="token">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
Does anyone knows how to do this?
You may not want to use Google for Login (authentication openId connect) but you do want to access a users google calendar data which means that you will still need to use Google for (Authorization OAuth2)
The sample you are following Python quickstart is intended for use with command line application, this means you are creating installed credentials.
Complete the steps described in the rest of this page to create a simple Python command-line application that makes requests to the Drive API.
This code will open the web browser window for user authorization on the web server and not on the users machine. You should be using a web browser client and code designed for use with web applications.
I'm having some trouble understanding and implementing the Google Directory API's users watch function and push notification system (https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/reports/v1/guides/push#creating-notification-channels) in my Python GAE app. What I'm trying to achieve is that any user (admin) who uses my app would be able to watch user changes within his own domain.
I've verified the domain I want to use for notifications and implemented the watch request as follows:
directoryauthdecorator = OAuth2Decorator(
approval_prompt='force',
client_id='my_client_id',
client_secret='my_client_secret',
callback_path='/oauth2callback',
scope=['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user'])
class PushNotifications(webapp.RequestHandler):
#directoryauthdecorator.oauth_required
def get(self):
auth_http = directoryauthdecorator.http()
service = build("admin", "directory_v1", http=auth_http)
uu_id=str(uuid.uuid4())
param={}
param['customer']='my_customer'
param['event']='add'
param['body']={'type':'web_hook','id':uu_id,'address':'https://my-domain.com/pushNotifications'}
watchUsers = service.users().watch(**param).execute()
application = webapp.WSGIApplication(
[
('/pushNotifications',PushNotifications),
(directoryauthdecorator.callback_path, directoryauthdecorator.callback_handler())],
debug=True)
Now, the receiving part is what I don't understand. When I add a user on my domain and check the app's request logs I see some activity, but there's no usable data. How should I approach this part?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
The problem
It seems like there's been some confusion in implementing the handler. Your handler actually sets up the notifications channel by sending a POST request to the Reports API endpoint. As the docs say:
To set up a notification channel for messages about changes to a particular resource, send a POST request to the watch method for the resource.
source
You should only need to send this request one time to set up the channel, and the "address" parameter should be the URL on your app that will receive the notifications.
Also, it's not clear what is happening with the following code:
param={}
param['customer']='my_customer'
param['event']='add'
Are you just breaking the code in order to post it here? Or is it actually written that way in the file? You should actually preserve, as much as possible, the code that your app is running so that we can reason about it.
The solution
It seems from the docs you linked - in the "Receiving Notifications" section, that you should have code inside the "address" specified to receive notifications that will inspect the POST request body and headers on the notification push request, and then do something with that data (like store it in BigQuery or send an email to the admin, etc.)
Managed to figure it out. In the App Engine logs I noticed that each time I make a change, which is being 'watched', on my domain I get a POST request from Google's API, but with a 302 code. I discovered that this was due to the fact I had login: required configured in my app.yaml for the script, which was handling the requests and the POST request was being redirected to the login page, instead of the processing script.
Is there any way of listening for a POST on a certain url within a custom module in Odoo?
Or would this have to be done with nginx redirecting the request to another python script?
Sure you can
from openerp import http
#http.route('/home', auth="public", website=True)
def cart(self, **kwargs):
return 'This is the index page'
it's pretty straight forward, we define a url route that points to /home and then a python method that returns a string to the user.
install your module and visit localhost:8069/home and you should see 'This is the index page' returned back to you
for more information you get read the docs
I used flask to make a web portal for the users to register but when I run the html file using a local host, the display looks like below:
This html file is not actually an html file but rather a Jinja template. Thus, you need it to be served via your flask app render_template function. So it makes not sense to open this page via browser as html.
I want use django-s3direct and I want upload many image in admin panel.
1) All time when I try upload image/file get error "Oops, file upload failed, please try again" ?
When I refresh page. Name file is in input. But my input "Save" are disabled :/
edit
I remove from settings:
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = ''
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = ''
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = ''
and now I don't get error but file no upload :/ All time black progress bar..
2) How upload multiple image? No inline.. Please help me and give some advice? Im newbie..
I have Django 1.5.5. Now i use inline and I don't know what's next.
You will need to edit some of the permissions properties of the target S3 bucket so that the final request has sufficient privileges to write to the bucket. Sign in to the AWS console and select the S3 section. Select the appropriate bucket and click the ‘Properties’ tab. Select the Permissions section and three options are provided (Add more permissions, Edit bucket policy and Edit CORS configuration).
CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) will allow your application to access content in the S3 bucket. Each rule should specify a set of domains from which access to the bucket is granted and also the methods and headers permitted from those domains.
For this to work in your application, click ‘Add CORS Configuration’ and enter the following XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CORSConfiguration xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/">
<CORSRule>
<AllowedOrigin>yourdomain.com</AllowedOrigin>
<AllowedMethod>GET</AllowedMethod>
<AllowedMethod>POST</AllowedMethod>
<AllowedMethod>PUT</AllowedMethod>
<AllowedHeader>*</AllowedHeader>
</CORSRule>
</CORSConfiguration>
Click ‘Save’ in the CORS window and then ‘Save’ again in the bucket’s ‘Properties’ tab.
This tells S3 to allow any domain access to the bucket and that requests can contain any headers. For security, you can change the ‘AllowedOrigin’ to only accept requests from your domain.
If you wish to use S3 credentials specifically for this application, then more keys can be generated in the AWS account pages. This provides further security, since you can designate a very specific set of requests that this set of keys are able to perform. If this is preferable to you, then you will need to also set up an IAM user in the Edit bucket policy option in your S3 bucket. There are various guides on AWS’s web pages detailing how this can be accomplished.
Setting up the client-side code
This setup does not require any additional, non-standard Python libraries, but some scripts are necessary to complete the implementation on the client-side.
This article covers the use of the s3upload.js script. Obtain this script from the project’s repo (using Git or otherwise) and store it somewhere appropriate in your application’s static directory. This script currently depends on both the JQuery and Lo-Dash libraries. Inclusion of these in your application will be covered later on in this guide.
The HTML and JavaScript can now be created to handle the file selection, obtain the request and signature from your Python application, and then finally make the upload request.
Firstly, create a file called account.html in your application’s templates directory and populate the head and other necessary HTML tags appropriately for your application. In the body of this HTML file, include a file input and an element that will contain status updates on the upload progress.
<input type="file" id="file" onchange="s3_upload();"/>
<p id="status">Please select a file</p>
<div id="preview"><img src="/static/default.png" /></div>
<form method="POST" action="/submit_form/">
<input type="hidden" id="" name="" value="/static/default.png" />
<input type="text" name="example" placeholder="" /><br />
<input type="text" name="example2" placeholder="" /><br /><br />
<input type="submit" value="" />
</form>
The preview element initially holds a default image. Both of these are updated by the JavaScript, discussed below, when the user selects a new image.
Thus when the user finally clicks the submit button, the URL of the image is submitted, along with the other details of the user, to your desired endpoint for server-side handling. The JavaScript method, s3_upload(), is called when a file is selected by the user. The creation and population of this method is covered below.
Next, include the three dependency scripts in your HTML file,account.html. You may need to adjust the src attribute for the files3upload.js if you put this file in a directory other than /static:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.github.com/bestiejs/lodash/v1.1.1/dist/lodash.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/static/s3upload.js"></script>
The ordering of the scripts is important as the dependencies need to be satisfied in this sequence. If you desire to host your own versions of JQuery and Lo-Dash, then adjust thesrc attribute accordingly.
Finally, in a block, declare a JavaScript function,s3_upload(), in the same file again to process the file upload. This block will need to exist below the inclusion of the three dependencies:
function s3_upload(){
var s3upload = new S3Upload({
file_dom_selector: 'file',
s3_sign_put_url: '/sign_s3_upload/',
onProgress: function(percent, message) {
$('#status').html('Upload progress: ' + percent + '%' + message);
},
onFinishS3Put: function(url) {
$('#status').html('Upload completed. Uploaded to: '+ url);
$("#image_url").val(url);
$("#preview").html('<img src="'+url+'" style="width:300px;" />');
},
onError: function(status) {
$('#status').html('Upload error: ' + status);
}
});
}
This function creates a new instance of S3Upload, to which is passed the file input element, the URL from which to retrieve the signed request and three functions.
Initially, the function makes a request to the URL denoted by thes3_sign_put_url argument, passing the file name and mime type as GET parameters. The server-side code (covered in the next section) interprets the request and responds with a preview of the URL of the file to be uploaded to S3 and the signed request, which this function then uses to asynchronously upload the file to your bucket.
The function will post upload updates to the onProgress() function and , if the upload is successful, onFinishS3Put() is called and the URL returned by the Python application view is received as an argument. If, for any reason, the upload should fail, onError() will be called and thestatus parameter will describe the error.
If you find that the page isn’t working as you intend after implementing the system, then consider using console.log()to record any errors that occur inside the onError() callback and use your browser’s error console to help diagnose the problem.
If successful, the preview div will now be updated with the user’s chosen image, and the hidden input field will contain the URL for the image. Now, once the user has completed the rest of the form and clicked submit, all pieces of information can be posted to the same endpoint.
It is good practice to inform the user of any prolonged activity in any form of application (web- or device-based) and to display updates on changes. Thus the status methods could be used, for example, to show a loading GIF to indicate that an upload is in progress, which can then be hidden when the upload has finished. Without this sort of information, users may suspect that the page has crashed, and could try to refresh the page or otherwise disrupt the upload process.
Setting up the server-side Python code
To generate a temporary signature with which the upload request can be signed. This temporary signature uses the account details (the AWS access key and secret access key) as a basis for the signature, but users will not have direct access to this information. After the signature has expired, then upload requests with the same signature will not be successful.
As mentioned previously, this article covers the production of an application for the Flask framework, although the steps for other Python frameworks will be similar. Readers using Python 3 should consider therelevant information on Flask’s website before continuing.
Start by creating your main application file, application.py, and set up your skeleton application appropriately:
from flask import Flask, render_template, request
from hashlib import sha1
import time, os, json, base64, hmac, urllib
app = Flask(__name__)
if __name__ == '__main__':
port = int(os.environ.get('PORT', 5000))
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=port)
The currently-unused import statements will be necessary later on.
Readers using Python 3 should import urllib.parse in place of urllib.
Next, in the same file, you will need to create the views responsible for returning the correct information back to the user’s browser when requests are made to various URLs. First define view for requests to/account to return the page account.html, which contains the form for the user to complete:
#app.route("/account/")
def account():
return render_template('account.html')
Please note that the views for the application will need to be placed between the app = Flask(__name__) and if __name__ == '__main__': lines in application.py.
Now create the view, in the same Python file, that is responsible for generating and returning the signature with which the client-side JavaScript can upload the image. This is the first request made by the client before attempting an upload to S3. This view responds with requests to /sign_s3/:
#app.route('/sign_s3/')
def sign_s3():
AWS_ACCESS_KEY = os.environ.get('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID')
AWS_SECRET_KEY = os.environ.get('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY')
S3_BUCKET = os.environ.get('S3_BUCKET')
object_name = request.args.get('s3_object_name')
mime_type = request.args.get('s3_object_type')
expires = int(time.time()+10)
amz_headers = "x-amz-acl:public-read"
put_request = "PUT\n\n%s\n%d\n%s\n/%s/%s" % (mime_type, expires, amz_headers, S3_BUCKET, object_name)
signature = base64.encodestring(hmac.new(AWS_SECRET_KEY, put_request, sha1).digest())
signature = urllib.quote_plus(signature.strip())
url = 'https://%s.s3.amazonaws.com/%s' % (S3_BUCKET, object_name)
return json.dumps({
'signed_request': '%s?AWSAccessKeyId=%s&Expires=%d&Signature=%s' % (url, AWS_ACCESS_KEY, expires, signature),
'url': url
})
Readers using Python 3 should useurllib.parse.quote_plus() to quote the signature.
This code performs the following steps:
• The request is received to /sign_s3/ and the AWS keys and S3 bucket name are loaded from the environment.
• The name and mime type of the object to be uploaded are extracted from the GET parameters of the request (this stage may differ in other frameworks).
• The expiry time of the signature is set and forms the basis of the temporary nature of the signature. As shown, this is best used as a function relative to the current UNIX time. In this example, the signature will expire 10 seconds after Python has executed that line of code.
• The headers line tells S3 what access permissions to grant. In this case, the object will be publicly available for download.
• Now the PUT request can be constructed from the object information, headers and expiry time.
• The signature is generated as an SHA hash of the compiled AWS secret key and the actual PUT request.
• In addition, surrounding whitespace is stripped from the signature and special characters are escaped (using quote_plus) for safer transmission through HTTP.
• The prospective URL of the object to be uploaded is produced as a combination of the S3 bucket name and the object name.
• Finally, the signed request can be returned, along with the prospective URL, to the browser in JSON format.
You may wish to assign another, customised name to the object instead of using the one that the file is already named with, which is useful for preventing accidental overwrites in the S3 bucket. This name could be related to the ID of the user’s account, for example. If not, you should provide some method for properly quoting the name in case there are spaces or other awkward characters present. In addition, this is the stage at which you could provide checks on the uploaded file in order to restrict access to certain file types. For example, a simple check could be implemented to allow only .png files to proceed beyond this point.
It is sometimes possible for S3 to respond with 403 (forbidden) errors for requests which are signed by temporary signatures containing special characters. Therefore, it is important to appropriately quote the signature as demonstrated above.
Finally, in application.py, create the view responsible for receiving the account information after the user has uploaded an image, filled in the form, and clicked submit. Since this will be a POST request, this will also need to be defined as an ‘allowed access method’. This method will respond to requests to the URL /submit_form/:
#app.route("/submit_form/", methods=["POST"])
def submit_form():
example = request.form[""]
example2 = request.form[""]
image_url = request.form["image_url"]
update_account(example, example2, image_url)
return redirect(url_for('profile'))
In this example, an update_account() function has been called, but creation of this method is not covered in this article. In your application, you should provide some functionality, at this stage, to allow the app to store these account details in some form of database and correctly associate the information with the rest of the user’s account details.
In addition, the URL for the profile page has not been defined in this article (or companion code). Ideally, for example, after updating the account, the user would be redirected back to their own profile so that they can see the updated information.
