No.  I see lots of SoC projects stagnate, but lots more make it.  I
think SoC is a bit like YCombinator in the sense that they're
scattering peanuts to see what grows.  And it's good PR as well as a
recruiting tool.

Re: pure-HTTP deployment?

On the topic of a pure python wsgi http server. Has anyone checked out
twisted. I seem to remember that zope actually nows uses twisted for
its server, and there is a twisted.web2.wsgi module that I've seen
mentioned elsewhere as a functional wsgi server that's being used in
production for some sites.

It might be possible to put together a functional wsgi web server quite
quickly  for django based upon this.

Yep.  If you haven't seen it, Wikipedia has excellent coverage of
unicode, including utf-8:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utf-8

Even so, rfc 3926 (covering URIs) 1.2.1:
"
Percent-encoded
  octets (Section 2.1) may be used within a URI to represent characters
  outside the range of the US-ASCII coded character set if this
representation is allowed by the scheme or by the protocol element in
which the URI is referenced.  Such a definition should specify the
character encoding used to map those characters to octets prior to
  being percent-encoded for the URI.
"
While rfc 2616 (covering http 1.1) 3.2.3 says only:
"
  Characters other than those in the "reserved" and "unsafe" sets (see
  RFC 2396 [42]) are equivalent to their ""%" HEX HEX" encoding.
"

Which basically means that the character encoding used in octet
encoding for http URIs is undefined.  ...In the real world, I've only
ever seen characters encoded as utf-8 octets.


Now my issue switches to the analogous one for the model layer.  It
seems that SQLite, at least, works fine with the UTF-8 byte strings
Django gives it, and faithfully returns them when asked.  But again,
one has to worry about remembering to decode them into Unicode strings
when needed, which is a bit annoying.  And of course you have to
remember to make your database fields three or four times longer than
needed, since each character takes up three or four bytes.


There's been a general consensus that unicodifying Django is a worthy
goal, and I know some work's been done on it, though I don't see a
branch for it.

There might be some work on the comment views to make them use the
newforms framework, but other than that, I can't say I know of any
work that is planned.

If you have some specific ideas on how to improve the comments
package, I would suggest raising them on the django-developers mailing
list. That's the best place to get feedback on any changes you want to
make, and it is also the best place to find out if there is anyone

Internationalization and caching not working!

[Beegee]

I build a Dutch and English website: http://www.localpoint.nl. Traffic
to the website is increasing. That is why I am looking at enabling
Django caching.

However, it does not seem to work! I tried different backends. The file
backend for example does not store any files. I also tried memcached.
That seems to be working although I am not able to check the contents
of memcached itself. Is that possible?

But, whenever I switch between the two languages with caching enabled
the results are unpredictable. I get a Dutch page when I should get an
English one and vice versa.

Is there someone who has experience in setting up caching with a Django
website that uses internationalization (i18n)?

Thanks very much for your help.

By the way these are the middleware settings I am using:

# CacheMiddleware settings
#CACHE_BACKEND = "locmem:///"
#CACHE_BACKEND = "file:///var/www/MyDjango-cache/"
CACHE_BACKEND = "memcached://127.0.0.1:11211/"
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_KEY_PREFIX = 'localpoint_'
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_SECONDS = 60 * 5

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
#"django.contrib.flatpages.middleware.FlatpageFallbackMiddleware",
"django.middleware.http.ConditionalGetMiddleware",
"django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware",
"django.middleware.gzip.GZipMiddleware",
"django.contrib.csrf.middleware.CsrfMiddleware", #protection agains
cross site scripting.
"django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware",
"django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware",
"django.middleware.cache.CacheMiddleware",
"django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware",
"django.middleware.doc.XViewMiddleware",
)

But I also tried this one:

# CacheMiddleware settings
#CACHE_BACKEND = "locmem:///"
#CACHE_BACKEND = "file:///var/www/MyDjango-cache/"
CACHE_BACKEND = "memcached://127.0.0.1:11211/"
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_KEY_PREFIX = 'localpoint_'
CACHE_MIDDLEWARE_SECONDS = 60 * 5

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
#"django.contrib.flatpages.middleware.FlatpageFallbackMiddleware",
"django.middleware.http.ConditionalGetMiddleware",
"django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware",
"django.middleware.gzip.GZipMiddleware",
"django.contrib.csrf.middleware.CsrfMiddleware", #protection agains
cross site scripting.
"django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware",
"django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware",
"django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware",
"django.middleware.doc.XViewMiddleware",

)

Same result.

There is no specific WS support at present. Django lets you write
views that serve HTTP - if those HTTP packets happen to be in
XML-RPC/SOAP/... format, then you have an XML-RPC/SOAP/... app. Django
templates aren't HTML specific, so you can use them to help in
producing XML-RPC/SOAP/... packets.

There has been talk from time to time about the creation of some
generic views for REST-type applications; the goal here would be to
provide a generic mechanism that makes writing REST views easier. If

ChangeManipulator for User was broken. :-)


You probably didn't send the username and password with the form.

You need to pass the two required User fields username and password 
every time you update the User model or get_validation_errors() will 
return an error.


Put {{ forms.errors }} at top of your template which you use to update 
the user model to see all the errors that get_validation_errors() returns.


You could either include them in every POST with the form or put them in 
new_data2 in the view just before you validate it. Something like this:


new_data2 = request.POST.copy()
new_data2['username'] = request.user.username
new_data2['password'] = request.user.password

Or you could write a custom manipulator that unifies the fields for User 
and your user_Profile models. And only validate against it?



class MyProfileManipulator(forms.Manipulator):
def __init__(self):
self.fields = (
# custom fields from the User model
forms.TextField(field_name="first_name", ...),
forms.TextField(field_name="last_name", ...),
# fields from your custom model
forms.TextField(field_name="phone", ...),
forms.TextField(field_name="city", ...),
)

We are using virtual hosts like


  ServerName wow.curse-gaming.com
  SetHandler mod_python
...

and the path info is working right for us.

Maybe the problem is somewhere else in the setup?
That setup is the Apache2.2 but it was working with Apache2 before.

Re: variables in Django Session

[Osso]

If you modify the variable directly it won't call the setter in the
django session app. So you need to:

# get the variable
myform = request.session['myform']
# update it
myform['field1']=someVariable
# update your session
request.session['myform'] = myform

I had the same problem and that fixed it form. If you have a solution
for skipping the 2 extra steps I would use it.

I think it is faster to try out yourself than writing a post.
I don't see why it shouldn't work. {{ list| unordered_list }} in the

GenericRelations as they are now do not work with select related.
Also you can't change the names of the 2 fields for the content type
and the object id.
And you can't create objects using the generic key.

Django Ticket #1476: New field option: edit_external=True

[Jim Fritchman]

I am new to Django and web development for that matter but I saw ticket
#1476 posted about related objects being displaed as lists with a link
to allow the user to edit.  I would like to do something very similar
and I am hoping that someone can help me get on the right track.

I have a person class that has the possibility of having more then one
phone number and more then one address.  So I would like to create a
list of phone numbers and a list of addresses when the user is editing
the person's information.  I want the list to look very similar to what
the admin builds for their lists with a button to allow you to add a
new one.

I have read as much as I can to find a solution but I just can't seem
to grasp the best way to do this?  Do I need to build my own custom
view?  If so, how do you plug in a custom view to be used in the place
if the view that is generated?  I am really hoping that there is a way
to do this and I hope that someone can shed some light on this for me
and push me down the right path.

Thank you very much for your help.

Jim Fritchman

Generic Types and template tags...

[Bram]

Hello Everyone,


Long time Django lurker, now gone full steam from theory to practice
:-)


In the 'interest' of staying DRY, I ran into a bit of a problem today:

1. I have Favorite, which is a generic relation from anything to a User
(in my case the django.auth kind of User).

2. I have a template tag called "show_users user_list start end" which
lists a set of users, with some slicing.

Now, I have an Article which has users which favorited it. So I can say
article.fans, but sadly enough this obviously returns me a list of
generic relations, not a list of actual users, so I can't re-use the
template tag...!!

Of course I could rewrite the template for the template tag, but, I'd
be drowning, not DRY!

See below for the code..

Thanks a lot, and expect more questions from me in the near future ;-))


- bram



The models:

class Favorite(models.Model):
content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType) # to identify the table
object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField() # the id
content_object = models.GenericForeignKey() # the actual object
user = models.ForeignKey(User) # User who is favoritizin'
created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) # Timestamp of
assignment

class Article(models.Model):
#  big snip
fans = models.GenericRelation(Favorite) # users that favorited this
song


The template tag:

@register.inclusion_tag('common/user_list.html')
def show_user_list(users, start=None, end=None):
return {'users' : users[start:end]}

The template:

{% for user in users %}
   {{ user.username }}
{% endfor %}

Memcached Servers Failures

[Osso]

Hello,

For our website (http://www.curse-gaming.com), we are using a pool of 8
servers.
The problem is when a server goes down, or more precisely when one the
memcached instances goes down, it crashes the whole website.

We are actually using a modified version of the tummy's python
memcached connector that sets a timeout on sockets connections so that
our website doesn't hang anymore while waiting to connect to memcached.

However I am wondering what solution did you guys use to solve that
issue? Having a caching system that relies on 8 servers or more to be
all up all time does not seem the ideal solution to me. So I guess
there is another way to change that behavior.

Extrange behavior with get 'self' FK in admin view

[ElGranAzul]

Hi, i've and extrange behavior with admin views with the following
code:

class Subdivision(models.Model):
   code = models.CharField(_('Code'), maxlength=10, primary_key=True)
   name = models.CharField(_('Name'), maxlength=100, core=True)
   stype = models.CharField(_('Type'), maxlength=3,
choices=COUNTRY_SUBDIVISION_TYPE)
   country = models.ForeignKey(Country, verbose_name=_('Country'))
   island = models.ForeignKey(Island, verbose_name=_('Island'),

   parent = models.ForeignKey('self', related_name="children",
verbose_name=_('Parent Subdivision'), blank=True, null=True)
   lat = models.FloatField(_('Latitude'), max_digits=9,
decimal_places=6, blank=True, null=True)
   lon = models.FloatField(_('Longitude'), max_digits=9,
decimal_places=6, blank=True, null=True)

   def __str__(self):
   parent = self._parents_repr()
   if parent:
   return ('%s (%s of %s, %s)') % (self.name,
self.get_stype_display(), parent, self.country)
   else:
   return ('%s (%s of %s)') % (self.name,
self.get_stype_display(), self.country)
   __str__.short_description = _("Descipcion")

   def _recurse_for_parents(self, cat_obj):

   if cat_obj.parent_id:
   p = cat_obj.parent
   p_list.append([p.name,p.stype])
   more = self._recurse_for_parents(p)
   p_list.extend(more)
   if cat_obj == self and p_list:
   p_list.reverse()
   return p_list

   def _parents_repr(self):
   p_list = self._recurse_for_parents(self)
   if len(p_list) >= 1:
   p = p_list.pop()
   p_list = p[0]
   else:
   p_list = ''
   return p_list

   class Meta:

   class Admin:
   list_display = ('code','name','island','__str__')
   list_filter = ['country','stype']
   search_fields = ['code','name']

The problem is that wehn i try to edit an object and call
self._parents_repr() in __str__ the admin views raise an 404 error
saying that cannot find a model with this code, but if i remove the
self._parents_repr() it works ok. In shell the str output works good,
and in admin list.

Is it an admin views error?

fileField pdf validation

[rp]

Does anyone have a recommended way to validate PDF files which are
being uploaded?

I only plan on uploading PDFs through the admin but wanted to know a
more robust way than simply checking the extension.

   file_reference = models.FileField(upload_to='xxdirnamexx',
blank=True,validator_list =
[filenameEndsWith(choices=FILETYPES_FOR_UPLOAD),])

I have ReportLab installed but have only used it for creating PDFs--not
opening existing ones.

Would it be worth checking the file itself?  For example, checking for
"%PDF-1" as the first characters?

Thanks for your help,

raman

Re: Unicode URLs

[Aaron Jacobs]

After researching it some more, it seems that Django uses UTF-8 byte
strings internally (as opposed to the actual Unicode strings that
Python supports).  So the following regular expression actually does
work:

r"^name/(?P[^/]+)/$"

What is passed in the `name` parameter is a UTF-8 byte string, so if
you need an actual Unicode string, you can do the following:

unicode_name = name.decode('utf8')

The only thing I worried about initially was the possibility of having
one of the bytes making up the Chinese character be `0x2F`, which is
the code for a forward slash.  Since the regular expression matches
against the UTF-8 byte string, it treats each byte as an independent
character and thus would treat such a byte as a forward slash.  But
after reading a bit about UTF-8, it sounds like `0x2F` is never used
in anything but the forward slash.

Now my issue switches to the analogous one for the model layer.  It
seems that SQLite, at least, works fine with the UTF-8 byte strings
Django gives it, and faithfully returns them when asked.  But again,
one has to worry about remembering to decode them into Unicode strings
when needed, which is a bit annoying.  And of course you have to
remember to make your database fields three or four times longer than
needed, since each character takes up three or four bytes.

ViewDoesNotExist at /admin/

[eobanb]

Hi,

I'm having a problem that I absolutely cannot figure out.  I've
double-checked and re-checked urls.py (I have the right line
uncommented), settings.py (I have the django.contrib.admin as an
installed app), restarted fcgi, everything.  I've tried the tutorial
from scratch three times now, each time rm -rfing the whole thing and
checking out the trunk from svn again after I get stuck.  I just cannot
get through the tutorial because I cannot get the admin application to
work.  This is what happens:

ViewDoesNotExist at /admin/
Tried index in module django.contrib.admin.views.main. Error was:
'module' object has no attribute 'index'

Additionally, I can't get the dev server to work either.  I've bound it
to my IP and I try to connect on :8000 and it just times out.  I don't
really care about that that much though as I have everything seemingly
set up with apache and fcgi.

Django hosting gets cheaper

[Remi]

Hi everyone,

I thought you might be interested in knowing that WebFaction just
upgraded their hosting plans.

We've added one long-running process and 40MB of RAM to all of our
plans.

This means that Django hosting is now available on our "Shared 1" plan,
starting at $7.50/month.

That's our little holiday present :)

We've been happily supporting Django from the start and host hundreds
(actually, close to a thousand now) of Django sites ...

Even if you don't host with us, feel free to have a look at our Django
forum where you might find useful information related to Django
hosting: http://forum.webfaction.com/viewforum.php?id=19


Happy holidays everyone.

Remi.

   obligor = models.ForeignKey(UserInfo,null=True)

Why it gives you errors..until you change it to this:
class Loan(models.Model):
   loan_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
   originator =models.ForeignKey(UserInfo,
related_name="originator",null=True)
   obligor = models.ForeignKey(UserInfo,
related_name="obligor",null=True)



Why doesn't django just just look at the name you have specified before
the equal sign..rather than making you put the same thing in a
related_name field?

Re: Unicode URLs

I want to parse a URL matching the following regular expression:

r"name/(?P[^/]+)/"

That is, a URL of the form `name/Johnson/`, where 'Johnson' gets
passed to my view.  But the catch is, I want the name to be able to be
Chinese.  So the regular expression needs to be able to match against
Unicode strings, and Django needs to treat the URL as a Unicode
string.

Or at least I think that's what needs to happen.  I'm asking for help
because I'm not sure.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but it seems that that is just a function to
make Unicode strings into ASCII strings, losing data in the process.
That's not what I want; I want to support URLs with non-ASCII
characters in them.

Edit user info

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hi there, I've been trying to create a form that allows people to edit
their user information. I've created a model user_profile to give users
a bit more in the way of profile options, but I'm having trouble
getting the form to properly update the basic user info.

This is my first interaction with django. What I've got is a view that
defines a custom manipulator and then uses 2 separate manipulators to
create the form and save the data. One for the User model and one for
the user_profile model. I'm pretty sure that there must be a more
unified way of doing this, right? The user_profile model is linked to
the User model by a OnetoOne field.

Code:


try:
profile_manipulator = 
user_profile.ChangeManipulator(request.user.id)
except user_profile.DoesNotExist:
user_profile.new_profile(user_profile(), request.user)

profile_manipulator = user_profile.ChangeManipulator(request.user.id)
user_manipulator_data = User.ChangeManipulator(request.user.id)
user_manipulator = UserManipulator(request.user.id)

if request.method == 'POST':
new_data = request.POST.copy()
new_data2 = request.POST.copy()
errors = profile_manipulator.get_validation_errors(new_data)
errors2 = user_manipulator.get_validation_errors(new_data2)
if not errors:
profile_manipulator.do_html2python(new_data)
profile_manipulator.save(new_data)
user_manipulator.do_html2python(new_data2)
user_manipulator.save(new_data2, request.user.id)

# Do a post-after-redirect so that reload works, etc.
return HttpResponseRedirect("/profile/edit")
else:
errors = {}
errors2 = {}
# This makes sure the form accurately represents the fields of 
the
place.
new_data = profile_manipulator.flatten_data()
new_data2 = user_manipulator_data.flatten_data()

profile_form = forms.FormWrapper(profile_manipulator, new_data,
errors)
user_form = forms.FormWrapper(user_manipulator, new_data2, errors2)

If someone could give me some pointers, I'd really appreciate it. I've
found that the docs are far too sparse for me to be able to figure
everything out, and this is based upon stuff that I've read here and
comments to the Django docs.

Thanks in advance.

Displaing Images and Static Paths

[jason . leach]

Hi:

Sorry for the lame question but this not at all obvious for a new user
to Django.

I can get my templates to display just fine, but I can't get the images
in them to appear and I don't want to write a view for all my imags.
Bahhh.

I keep images in /i/ in the template directories: like i/foo.png. But I
get 404 errors because django's dev server can find those without a
few. So how do I get my images out? I'd really like to serve them out
using the standard .

Thanks in advance.
J.

Proposed Changes

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Some changes I will be making to our version of django after the New
Year's. I'm interested on everyones opinions if I should make them
compatible w/ development Django and submit them.

1. 2 extra arguments on select_related: depth, the depth of related
tables it will query for; keys, a list of fields [relational keys] to
limit the joining of

2. content types being added to ._meta. We use them all the time and I
don't like querying or hitting the cache just to get the "ID" of my
model. The plan would be to have these saved at runtime and updated
using signals

3. generic relations, that are useful. I dont know if they've become
useful since before, but when I first tried them they didnt help me
much. The idea is a you have 2 fields, such as content_type, and
object_id, and another field called, lets say my_table_name.
my_table_name = TrueGenericRelationThing(content_type, object_id). You
would be able to then reference htis just like a normal ManyToMany or
ForeignKey field.

If anyone has any criticism as to why these are bad ideas, or if its
already in the works, let me know so I can save some time

variables in Django Session

[GvaderTh]

Hi all. I have to 2 questions about django session. Why when I put
variable to session in my view method and get that variable from
session in others view method, that variable is list type, with index
0?
I try to put to session variable which is a dictionary of dictionary
and it won't work
e.g. request.session['myform'] = {}
request.session['myform'] ['field1']=someVariable
the dictionary 'my form' is visible only in that method, in others
method that dictionary is empy.
Any ideas?

Design question

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hello,

I'm just starting with django, and so far I am very impressed. I am
familiar with Python and Postgresql though.

Here is my question:

I have a table of Clients that just contains an client_id. I have three
tables for different clients (Companies, Independent and Other). Those
three have wildly different fields associated with them (ie. only one
of those types is allowed to log in). What I have done is a OneToOne
Field mapping to Clients.

How do I enforce that every key in Clients maps to exactly one key from
those three tables? My instinct is to write a simple trigger, or
perhaps write insertion triggers on the three tables to make the Client
table transparent, or even easier define my own sequence - instead of a
table (I am not sure how best to integrate that with django though).

Is there a django friendly way of solving this problem?

Django hosting gets cheaper

[Remi]

Hi everyone,

I thought you might be interested in knowing that WebFaction just
upgraded their hosting plans.

We've added one long-running process and 40MB of RAM to all of our
plans.

This means that Django hosting is now available on our "Shared 1" plan,
starting at $7.50/month.

That's our little holiday present :)

We've been happily supporting Django from the start and host hundreds
(actually, close to a thousand now) of Django sites ...

Even if you don't host with us, feel free to have a look at our Django
forum where you might find useful information related to Django
hosting: http://forum.webfaction.com/viewforum.php?id=19

Happy holidays everyone.

Remi.

Web Services in Django

I am trying to gather all the information I can about implementing web
services with Django (XML-RPC, SOAP, REST). Can you suggest good

status of WS support in Django? Thanks.

Juampa

P.S. I accidentally posted this topic in the Django-Developers list,

File Upload issues

in my form I have this:

About Me
   Bio
   {{form.bio}}
   Adventureousness: {{form.adventurousness}}
 My Pic. 

Current: {{ form.photo_path }}
Update:  {{ form.photo_path_file }}



when I render the form I do not get the current file listing... and I
cannot update the form without putting in a new file..


Any thoughts...

Comments framework in development?

Before I start seriously hacking the comments framework or implementing

where I could find any more info?

Re: Curse launches with Django platform

[Osso]

The only consequences of losing a session for us is the user getting
delogged. So it is not a big deal.

We have set it up, so that it can save the session data in the db as
backup for when we'll need the system to be more reliable.

In the interest of making 'pretty' URLs, I want my application to
accept URLs that may potentially contain Chinese characters, and have
those URLs parsed by URLconfs.  The [Django book] [1] says the
following:

there any way to accomplish what I want?  On Trac and the mailing
list I found some [efforts] [2] by Victor Ng to Unicode-ify things,
but nothing seems to ever have been made of them.  The last
modification to that ticket gives what sounds like a solution, but
honestly I can't say that I understand exactly what it says.

Any tips?

Re: Django on SourceForge?

If you have django then maybe you will be able to run it by FastCGI.
BlueHost doesn't offer FastCGI but some users managed to make it work:
