Re: Pass variable with HttpResponseRedirect
It would be very restful of you to pass that information through the url.
Beyond that you should look into sessions as described above or another
function (i don't know what that is), HttpResponseRedirect just redirects
the user's browser to another url.
Hope that helps,
Michael

E.g.,

then in your other view(s) do something like:
if 'errors' in session:
something that handles errors.
If you want to pass it to another web site altogether, it gets more
complicated.

Re: Admin : Select category -> show subcategory
Hello Martyn,
The main interaction, that i see you need is:
(On Product form) User select Category -> Subcategory field is auto-
filled -> User select a subcategory based on the category selected.
Then you will have to use some JS Library (I prefer JQuery, besides
there are some discussion about those libs on the list).
For filling this subcategory field, in terms of data transmission, i
use JSon, because JQuery has a fine JSon parser, in few lines it's all
done.
[]s,
Diego Ucha

Pass variable with HttpResponseRedirect
Hello fellow Django users,
I've got what I hope to be a simple question. I've got a page with 4
forms on it. Each goes to a different URL then uses
HttpResponseRedirect to get back to the original page. I want to pass
back any errors to the main screen.
How can I pass a variable with HttpResponseRedirect? I've tried:
return HttpResponseRedirect('/event/'+str(e.id), {'errors': errors,})
Is this impossible or should I be going about it another way?
Thanks for being so great Django community,
Poz

[newforms-admin] using multiple AdminSites
I've just move a project onto newforms-admin, and the change has gone
fine. Thanks to all who've worked on this.
The project has a public site and some customised admin for office
staff, so I'm thinking about having 2 AdminSites, one for office staff
and a basic one for sysadmin.
The /docs/admin.txt example gives this:
from myproject.admin import basic_site, advanced_site
urlpatterns = patterns('',
('^basic-admin/(.*)', basic_site.root),
('^advanced-admin/(.*)', advanced_site.root),
)
2 questions:
- how can you have different templates for each AdminSite
- if you register models to basic-admin, they won't show automatically
in advanced-admin and vice-versa
I'm missing something I think- or AdminSite isn't the way to do this.

Doc (
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/settings/#absolute-url-overrides)
says this is a mapping of ''"app_label.model_name" strings'. App_label, I
believe, is only the rightmost part of the Python path to the application
(in this case django.contrib.auth, so for rightmost part, just 'auth'). So
I'd try:
ABSOLUTE_URL_OVERRIDES = {
'auth.user': lambda o: "/members/%s/" % o.username,

If that is not correct for the word in question, then you have to tell the filter what the correct suffix is. The doc also has an example of how to specify that pluralize should change a -y to an -ies. For the model's verbose plural name, again the doc states the default behavior is to add an s.

Maybe. I don't know if anyone has proposed smartening-up Django's pluralization rules in the past (I'm not even sure if you are proposing it here?). My gut feeling is it's probably something that has lots of exceptions/special cases that would make it hard to get entirely right, particularly for all languages, but maybe I'm unduly pessimistic.

'mysite' in the installation guide here is just a placeholder for your own Django project code. Django does not come with any pre-built site that you can access immediately after installation. You have to write at least a little code yourself, and you haven't mentioned here that you have done that? I'd suggest running through the tutorial: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/tutorial01/ to get an idea of the code you need to create in order to build your own site. You'll see there that it isn't even necessary (nor even recommended) at this point to bother with setting up apache/mod_python. Rather, simply use the Django development server as you run through the tutorial and do your own development. Worry about setting up apache/mod_python when you get to the point of wanting to put your Django project into real production use. Karen > So I ask all of you, where is the error?

Re: Production vs Development Environments
We have several different mercurial repos backing instances of our project, and this works well. We can have different developers pushing their changes to different instances of th site for testing and then all of their changes can be consilidated into 'trunk' ready to be pushed to our live servers.In the case of simple bug fixes we can combine the step of pushing into trunk and pushing to live as well, so it's a pretty good setup! This is great for most cases, however when you get a subtle bug that has to do with your live environment, it falls somewhat short. It would be great if we could have a testing setup that mirrors our live setup (which consists of several servers, postgres failover and some other bits) however it would be too expensive!

Production vs Development Environments
A post from another thread got me wondering, how many people here have their development environments closely mimic their production ones? Or is it common to have a development, staging and production environments ? That way your development environment could be whatever is easiest for you to set up on your dev box, and your staging could mimic production so you could work out any bugs there. In theory I would think the 3 environments would provide the most robust system for developing, testing and rolling out code, but if Django handles the different DB back-ends pretty well then you could eliminate the staging environ and speed up your end-to-end process I would think.

There is an explanation how I can pass extra context variables into my change form, but this solution don't work in my case. I would like to show some extra information above the changelist (change_list.html) and for that reason I need to pass some extra context into ModelAdmin.changelist_view.

Two projects exist: http://code.google.com/p/django-multilingual/ http://code.google.com/p/transdb/ DM uses an inner class on the model, to define the translatable fields.

Suppose, you want to have a model, the fields of which are available in multiple languages. How would you people go around doing it? The most trivial method would be to define as many variations of each text field as there are lanugages, and define a function inside the model that returns the variation that corresponds to currently chosen language, and use this function in all the views instead of the actual fields. Are there any other patterns in place? Just don't want to invent a wheel here. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Template variable in filter?
Isn't this already in settings.py?
Look at the code for the filters
/django/template/defaultfilters.py
it reads DATE_FORMAT and TIME_FORMAT from the settings file.
P.K.

Django on mod_python... Admin interface, no styling...
Hey all I tried deploying my django project on apache+modpython as the tutorial described... Everything works fine except that the admin website displays unformatted ...

Re: Should I set up Django locally or on a web server?
if you are running Leopard (IMPORTANT) it is very easy to setup Django. I wrote up what I did here: http://www.pkshiu.com/loft/archive/2008/01/django-on-leopard The key is to just use sqlite and the development server to do development. There are some issues with sqlite compare to postgresql (I use that for production). sqlite is more forgiving in some situations so you will find some subtle errors later on, but it's not a big deal.

Re: Patch #2070, progress bar and form view. Can't make it work.
The handling of the POST request is typical. I don't know what your
model class
looks like, but the could look something like this:
form = UploadForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
instance = ModelClassWithFileField()
instance.uploaded_by = request.user
save_instance(form, instance)
request.user.message_set.create(message=_('Your file has been
received.'))
That's it. The progress magic really happens in the code from the
snippets you listed: the upload handler that tracks progress in the
cache, and the view that reports it. Your template's going to need
some JavaScript, too, of course, to get the progress reports and
update the page.
I think that's all it took for me. Make sure you've got the latest
version of the 2070 patch ... and make sure you've got a caching
mechanism configured; forgetting to start memcached on your dev box
after a reboot can cause some head-scratching. ;^)

Re: Templating patterns

djangoAMF: django and flash
Hi,
I need to link a flash movie with Django, so I userd djangoAMF.
I followed the tutorial
(http://djangoamf.sourceforge.jp/index.php?UserManual_en) and seems to
work fine, but when I put the results inside a textbox in my flash
application, it understand data as a float number!
In django I use a simple helloworld function:
-
def HelloWorld(req):
return "HelloWorld"
--
In flash I followed the so the handleResult function is:
-
function handleResult(re:ResultEvent):Void {
this.message_txt.text = re.result;
}
-
The result is that in message_txt I find a strange number like
"4.432432e-123" that seems somehow related to the string (if I change
string the number change! otherwise it remain the same).
Someone has experience with this kind of problem?
Thanks,
Lorenzo

When and how is dispatcher.connect() called?
I have two functions in a signals.py module that I would like called
whenever instances of a number of models are saved or deleted.
Everything works as intended when I add all of this to each models.py
module:
from django.dispatch import dispatcher
from django.db.models import signals
from project.feed_summary.signals import create_feed_summary,
delete_feed_summary
class Foo(models.Model):
...
dispatcher.connect(create_feed_summary, sender=Foo,
signal=signals.post_save)
dispatcher.connect(delete_feed_summary, sender=Foo,
signal=signals.pre_delete)
However, I would really love have a tuple in settings.py something
like:
FEED_SUMMARY_SETTINGS = ('model_import_path',)
And just tack models onto that as necessary, with something like this
somewhere in the feed_summary app so that it is self-contained:
for m in FEED_SUMMARY_SETTINGS:
dispatcher.connect(create_feed_summary, sender=m,
signal=signals.post_save)
dispatcher.connect(delete_feed_summary, sender=m,
signal=signals.pre_delete)
Is this possible? Advisable? If so, where is the best place to drop
that code so the dispatchers don't just get garbage collected?
Thanks,
Jonathan

Default Pluralize logic
Could someone please be kind to explain to me how the pluralize logic works in django? a.) pluralize template filter b.) Meta.verbose_name_plural As default, I am expecting the pluralize to convert "country" to "countries". For exapmle, this doesn't happen in admin so I define the verbose_name_plural in the Meta inner class. Its straightforward to implement a function that can seemlessly handle this correctly as default, even if it was to read the pluralization rules from a rules. files or something equivalent.

Re: Pass extra data to a view
Could you just specify the data in the URL that you redirect to?
