yafowil.webob 0.9

Introduction

This is the WebOb integration for YAFOWIL - Yet Another Form WIdget Library.

This package registers a global preprocessor for yafowil. It wraps the any WebOb BaseRequest derived request instance.

Special behaviors:

• All WebOb params - available at WebObs request in a so called MultiDict - are returned in MultiDicts mixed flavor. This is how Yafowil expects them. IOW: If a query-key exists several times the values are aggregated in a list. If a query-key exists one time, the value is returned as string.

• File Uploads provided by WebOb as cgi.FieldStorage objects are turned into Dicts with the keys:

  file

  file-like object to read data from

  filename

  submitted name of the upload

  mimetype

  type of the upload

  headers

  all headers

  original

  keeps the original cgi.FieldStorage object
