Re: MySQL backend patch
I think, unfortunately, two branches is the way to go (<=4.1 and 5.0<=) - there are hosts out there who still provide 3.28, Debian sarge is 4.0.2. So - I guess the question is - what version of MySQL does Django's backend work with at the moment. I'm running the patch right now, and haven't seen any issues with a quick play (5.0.24 on OSX). I do like the fact that it sets ANSI,TRADITIONAL. --Simon --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Making sure a user has checked a checkbox ?
I am trying to implement the common use case of a form with an "I agree
to these terms" checkbox.
I'm not that interested in having that field in my model, so I create
my own Manipulator, define the fields I want in the form (with the
checkbox), then do validation against that Manipulator.
If that works out okay, I convert from the custom Manipulator to the
various Models where data will be stored (violating DRY here, I know,
but it seemed like good solution).
The problem I have is with simply validating that the checkbox is
checked.
I represent it as a forms.CheckboxField, with a custom validator
function, but this only seems to run when the checkbox is checked on
the form.
This makes sense considering how forms only exist in the POST data when
they are active, but I still want to handle this sanely within a
manipulator, so I can return the usual FormWrapper object to the
template.
I trid the "magic name" validate_ pattern, didn't seem to
work, and searched the newsgroups for some answers, but nothing
concrete came up.
I may be ignoring the obvious here, but it would be most kind of anyone
to point it out to me.
On an ending note, I would just say that I very much enjoy Django,
although documentation could be better (especially on "advanced" forms)
Here comes a paste of my Manipulator (formatting might be eaten by
processing),
the point is I would like to run the validator even if the checkbox is
not checked (or another solution with same result).
---
class CreateAccountManipulator(forms.Manipulator):
def __init__(self):
self.fields = (
forms.TextField(field_name="fornavn",maxlength=100,is_required=True),
forms.TextField(field_name="etternavn",maxlength=100,is_required=True),
forms.TextField(field_name="firma",maxlength=100),
forms.TextField(field_name="adresse",maxlength=100,is_required=True),
forms.IntegerField(field_name="postnr",is_required=True),
forms.TextField(field_name="poststed",is_required=True,maxlength=100),
forms.IntegerField(field_name="mobilnr",is_required=True),
forms.EmailField(field_name="epost",is_required=True),
forms.SelectField(field_name="select",choices=PAYMENT_PLANS),
forms.SelectField(field_name="invoicetype",choices=PAY_METHOD),
forms.CheckboxField(field_name="conditions_approve",validator_list=[self.validate_conditions_approve])
)
def validate_conditions_approve(self, data, form):
if not data == "on": #See note
raise validators.ValidationError("Checkbox must be
checked")
note: Is this a way of checking for checked ? see
forms.CheckboxField.html2python

I'm not fan starting making different versions of it, but it might make sense due to big differences. But MySQL 4.0 is reaching it's end-of-life, and so is 4.1 soon. I know that doesn't mean it is going to disappear anytime soon, but.. I'd rather see these backend naming then: - mysql: for MySQL 4.1 and 5.0 and higher.. - mysql4: for MySQL 4.0 and 4.1 There is already some migration going on from 4.x to 5.0, so I think we should go for 5.0 as 'default' backend. But that is just my opinion. MySQL 4.1 is like the thing between.. So I guess we could make both 'mysql' and 'mysql4' 4.1 compatible, or? Just looking into the future, when for example MySQL 6.0 comes out, it will be more compatible with 5.x series than 4.0 was with the 5.0 version. Well, that's what I hope :) If you need more of my help or info, let me know. Patch looks good to me, will put more time in when I get back next week.

Re: Advanced Admin Customization
Howdy, For the permission checking, you could override the admin template and add auth checking in there for the various permissions you want to check for. See: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/ExtendingAdminTemplates for more details on this. And in the auth documents there is info on how to access permissions in the templates. As for the second part, there are two possible routes off the top of my head. Neither of which I have tried or have any idea if they will work, maybe someone else can validate these. From experience, they both should work. 1) Override the default change/add manipulator for the model. E.g. Class Object(Models): ChangeManipulator = NewAddManipulator Therefore you can select the fields you want and how you want them. Including any processing of the data. I guess you could also do the permission checking for fields here, but it might not be the best spot. 2) Create a new field in the model that replaces the integer field you are currently using, in this new field you can override the method get_manipulator_field_objs to return the field object you want for this. See django.db.models.fields for the existing fields. Hope that helps, Chris --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

I don't think this will be possible, if I understand correctly.
The 'limit_choices_to' parameter simply alters the query that is used
to get the list of photos used to populate the drop down list. This
query is completely independent of which CategoryPhoto is being
edited - in fact, when adding a CategoryPhoto object (as opposed to
editing), the object doesn't even exist in the database, but the photo
drop down still needs to be populated.
The only way I can recommend is to add some AJAX that responds to
changes to the category drop and repopulates the photo drop down
accordingly. Thankfully this should be pretty easy using the 'js'
admin option.

Your misunderstanding me, I dont want to browse objects with tag A OR
B, I want tag A AND B in this example.
What I thought would work:
#a = Content.objects
#b = a.filter(tags__id = 8)
#print b[0].tags.values()
[{'id': 3, 'name': 'TestTag'}]
#b.filter(tags__id = 3)
[]
Why doesn't the b.filter return b[0]? Which does have that tag?

MySQL backend patch
I've come up with a patch to the MySQL backend. If you use MySQL, please check it out. http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2635 One of the issues to resolve is: What is the minimum version of MySQL which Django should support? I am doing all my development with 5.0, and the early deployment I have so far is on 4.1, but I haven't tested the patch against 4.1 yet. Does anyone use anything older than 4.1? Should this be a MySQL-5.0-specific backend and the existing one left alone, i.e. make this one mysql5?

Advanced Admin Customization
Greetings, I am trying to do a few advanced (from my point of view) customizations to the built in admin. I have searched around but haven't found the answers I'm looking for. If any one can help, or point me to a resource that can, I'd be forever greatful. (or at least really grateful ;) More Elaborate Permissions Handling == I've already setup and customized the basic permisions, but now I need to be more elaborate. Rather than allowning read/write to whole records, I need to limit access to specific attributes. For example: any user can add a new blog post, but only users in group X can toggle the 'publish' bit on any blog post and only users in group Z can delete a post. Are there hooks for individual fields, or at least saving, that will allow me to enforce my own permission checks? Custom fields === I also need to create my own custom field. In one of my models I have a integer where each bit stands for an action. Similar to the unix permissions system. i.e. chmod 640 user: r/w, group r, other 0 Rather than display this as a text box. I want to create a field with a series of check boxes to turn each bit on or off. I dug around in the source but got stuck. It would be nice too, if I can do this with add modifying the orginal source.

Re: why 'default' filter does't work?
Don,thanks for your reply.
'/z/catalog/{{ act|default:"new"}}/' worked well before I update svn.

when it's new bid, I return

Something like this should work:

A few questions about queryset's.
Hi
I've been learning to love django lately, but I can't quite wrap my
head around more advanced querysets. I've listed my classes and their
sql tables on the bottom, as all problems are linked to those tables.
First problem:
I have a class, Content, with a set of tags, how can I filter for
multiple tags?
If I do:
list = Content.objects.filter(tag__id=1).filter(tag__id=2) it makes a
sql query asking content_content_tags for content_id's where tag_id = 1
and tag_id = 2, which will of course never match.
What I'd like to do is something like:
for tag in request.GET.getlist('tag')
content = content.filter('match this tag too')
Second problem:
I've looked at complex_filter for doing this and I can't quite figure
it out.
What if I wanted something like this:
content.objects.filter(id__id=1) | content.objects.filter(id__id=2)
But I needed to match a dynamic list of id's. How could I do something
like
content = content.objects.filter(content=example)
for match in id_list:
content = content.objects.filter(id__id=match) #And here get a logical
OR comparison with the previus part of the loop.
So this would produce the same effect as:
content.objects.filter(id__id=id_list[0]) |
content.objects.filter(id__id=id_list[1])
Third problem: (promise I'm done soon :p )
And this is something I can't quite wrap my head around. I want to
allow each individual user to sort by percentage of files seen.
Sorting content that is.
So I want to produce a list of Content, but sort it based on the
percentage of FileName objects in that content category the user has
seen.
I'm thinking I'll need to override the save() function in FileName, and
update the percentage, stored in a different table. But since this
percentage has to be stored per user, and I somehow have to sort
content by it I dont have a foggy clue how to make my classes.
Does something like this make sense: (where it's updated on
FileName.save())
class SeenCache(models.Model):
content = models.ForeignKey('Content')
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
percentage = models.IntegerField()
It'd only work if a user has seen one file in that category though.
Classes:
class Tag(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(maxlength=20)
class FileName(models.Model):
fullname = models.CharField(maxlength = 1024,core=True)
content = models.ForeignKey('Content')
#List of users that has seen this content
users_seen =
models.ManyToManyField(User,core=True,null=True,blank=True)
class Content(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(maxlength = 200,null=True,blank=True)
tags = models.ManyToManyField(Tag,null=True,blank=True)
Produced sql tables:
CREATE TABLE "content_content" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"name" varchar(200) NULL,
);
CREATE TABLE "content_content_tags" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"content_id" integer NOT NULL REFERENCES "content_content" ("id"),
"tag_id" integer NOT NULL REFERENCES "content_tag" ("id"),
UNIQUE ("content_id", "tag_id")
);
CREATE TABLE "content_filename" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"fullname" varchar(1024) NOT NULL,
"content_id" integer NOT NULL REFERENCES "content_content" ("id")
);
CREATE TABLE "content_filename_users_seen" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"filename_id" integer NOT NULL REFERENCES "content_filename"
("id"),
"user_id" integer NOT NULL REFERENCES "auth_user" ("id"),
UNIQUE ("filename_id", "user_id")
);
CREATE TABLE "content_tag" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"name" varchar(20) NOT NULL,
);

I don't think you'll find it.
Django view functions just want HTTPResponses back; the response body
is passed as either as string or an iterator over strings; you can
override the MIME type like so:
from django.http import HTTPResponse
def test_view(request):
response = HTTPResponse("Your XUL CODE HERE")
response.META['CONTENT_TYPE']= 'application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml'
return response
If that's not what you're looking for, can you be more specific?

(perhaps with AJAX when selecting a date showing only available times for that date? but... how?) - In the appointments list view showing available days for directly adding an appointment that day (something like a timetable?) Has anyone dealt with appointments in django admin? how? Thank you!!! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: How do I make something available everywhere?
So just so I'm clear, I'll need to create an app (we'll call it amazon) that will have an empty models.py AND an empty views.py (since I don't want this in the DB, and I don't want it tied to any particular view) but WILL contain a templatetags folder for my little function.

It is possible to write "context processor" functions which will add extra items to the context of every template which uses RequestContext instead of the base Context class (generic views all use RequestContext, and using it for your own views is a trivial change).

How do I make something available everywhere?
I want to tap into the Amazon Web Services to provide a little revenue stream. I'm pretty confident about writing a funtion that will get the appropriate xml from Amazon and parse it out, as I'm already tapping into google maps and bringinig in an external rss feed. That part I think I've got. What I don't understand (and I know this is a total newbie question) is how I do this so it's available to drop in on any page I like. If I write a view, then that view will be associated with a certain url through urls.py, right? Do I need a view? Should I just write a template tag?

Re: Custom SQL in Q objects
I've got a similar situaton with trying to use 'limit_choices_to' on an
intermediary table, but I haven't been able to get it working...
Here's a quick abbreviated example:
class Category(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(maxlength=200)
class Photo(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(maxlength=200)
category = models.ManyToManyField(Category)
class CategoryPhoto(models.Model):
category = models.ForeingKey(Category, edit_inline=models.Tabular)
position = models.PositiveIntegerField(core=True)
photo = models.ForeignKey(Photo, limit_choices_to={'category__pk':
???})
??? is where I basically want to use the id of the current category
being edited to limit the photo choices to those set for that category
- since there's over 100 records in the db so far.
Any chance this would be possible with a similar Q class?

Re: Using a webservice as the datasource
Thanks Julio!What I thought of though was a Django application completely without own DB.It would fetch the data using one set of WS operations, and save them back using another set of operations.These are not some public web services, but application-specific ones, which have their own WSDLs and are deployed as a part of the application.
Perhaps that is a bit out of scope for Django, but I still have hope that it is possible to tweak Django a bit to be able to reuse all the nice Django features which are decoupled from the datasource.

I am using Django with the Yahoo API. There's even a python module
to make web searches and other Yahoo stuff (*verrry* easy to use).
What I did is create a model replicating every field from the
returned data, then my view requests something and I obj.save() it,
making it available on the admin interface. Something like (this is
for Yahoo news search):
from yahoo.search.news import NewsSearch
srch = NewsSearch('yahoo_app_id', query = 'something', results = 50,
language = 'en')
for news in srch.parse_results():
publish_date = datetime.fromtimestamp(float(news.PublishDate))
thumbnail = news.Thumbnail
if thumbnail is not None:
thumbnail = thumbnail['Url'].encode('utf-8')
try:
obj = News.objects.get(slug = slugify(news.Title)[0:50].encode('utf-8'))
except News.DoesNotExist:
obj = News(slug = slugify(news.Title)[0:50].encode('utf-8'))
obj.title = news.Title[0:125].encode('utf-8')
obj.summary = news.Summary.encode('utf-8')
obj.click_url = news.ClickUrl.encode('utf-8')
obj.news_source = news.NewsSource.encode('utf-8')
obj.news_source_url = news.NewsSourceUrl.encode('utf-8')
obj.language = news.Language.encode('utf-8')
obj.publish_date = publish_date.__str__()
obj.thumbnail = thumbnail
obj.save()
Then I grab some news from the DB:
news_list = News.objects.all().order_by('?')[0:3]
The encode('utf-8') was necessary because Mysql was complaining
about the data, don't know if it'll happen with your DB/server
configuration.

If you are using a service provider, ask them whether they have setup the mod_python configuration such that your Django instance is isolated from any other mod_python based or Django based application instance.

A module loading mechanism which supports reloading can't be middleware as it needs to be intimately aware of the context it is used. This is because you can't apply reloading to all modules, one can only do it for a selected subset of modules. In mod_python this is those modules which make up the web application.

I don't know what your other problem is, but it sounds like what you are experiencing is that your requests are being serviced by different Apache child processes. Further, that over time you made changes to the code base which either were wrong and caused an error with the wrong code then persisting in one process, or you renamed files required by code still loaded and in use by some other Apache child process. In other words, different Apache child processes have different versions of code loaded. Which of the child processes services a request is essentially random so which error you see, or whether your code works is also random. The only way you will solve this when using Django is to restart Apache. Making a module importing system that can handle automatic module reloading is quite hard and there are a lot of considerations. I don't know too much about how Django is implemented, but the feeling I get is that even if they were to try and implement a proper module reloading system, it would require some changes to how applications are structured in directories. This is in part because it is impossible to do automatic reloading on complex code which is organised as Python packages. To move Django away from using traditional Python packages would mean structural changes in user code which people aren't going to want.

is_approved patch for django.contrib.auth
In the Django Developers group/mailing-list, I brought up an
enhancement for adding the is_approved field to django's contrib.auth.
This request was declined. It was suggested that I add this to the
profile class instead. This doesn't make sense to me, because
authentication should be independent of a user's profile (plus, that's
discrimination :P).
My assumption for django not including this in its trunk is that
SchemaEvolution is not there to assist all of the users that would be
affected by this trunk. So, if you do decide to use this, be prepared
to ALTER TABLES on existing databases.
Anyways, I just updated my django trunk, so I had to repatch... and
thus, I decided to post this for anyone else wanting to add an approval
field to their user model & authentication.
You can turn on and off this approval requirement by setting the
LOGIN_REQUIRES_APPROVAL boolean in your settings.py.
Below you will find the patch:

Using a webservice as the datasource
Hi,I'm currently evaluating various web frameworks for my future project. I need an admin interface for a distributed system, in which the data is going to be fetched not from an SQL source but from a SOAP webservice or perhaps a couple of them. Has anyone got any experience of doing that with Django? How would you estimate the effort necessary for adapting Django to use webservices as the data source? What would be your approach? -- Thanks,Iwan --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
