1 Request and ResultSet methods

     2 -----------------------------

     3 

     4 Those are methods you'll find on both request objects and on repository session:

     5 

     6 :URL handling:

     7   * `build_url(*args, **kwargs)`, returns an absolute URL based on the

     8     given arguments. The *controller* supposed to handle the response,

     9     can be specified through the first positional parameter (the

    10     connection is theoretically done automatically :).

    11 :Data formatting:

    12   * `format_date(date, date_format=None, time=False)` returns a string for a

    13     date time according to instance's configuration

    14 

    15   * `format_time(time)` returns a string for a date time according to

    16     instance's configuration

    17 

    18 :And more...:

    19 

    20   * `tal_render(template, variables)`, renders a precompiled page template with

    21     variables in the given dictionary as context

    22 

    23 

    24 Result set methods:

    25 

    26   * `get_entity(row, col)`, returns the entity corresponding to the data position

    27     in the *result set*

    28 

    29   * `complete_entity(row, col, skip_bytes=True)`, is equivalent to `get_entity` but

    30     also call the method `complete()` on the entity before returning it
