Re: Preview for the new website..

[Shamail Tayyab]

Hey,

   Unfortunately, if you are developing alone, then you got to buy the
book "Learning CSS in 3 minutes and 42 seconds by Oscar Wilde" ;-)
 thats what I did, or else as Praveen and br suggested, get a template
and hack it. But as my personal experience, templates never fits your
need unless your site is a typical CMS (plus to customize a template
you again need the knowledge of CSS/JS, and believe me, the template
that you'll love the most will always have a pathetic CSS ;-) lolzz).
Definitely getting extJS like framework makes your life simple, but
again, it doesn't fit in all the cases...

What I can recommend you is, start gradually by taking CSS and
Javascript (Give a shot to jquery). Once you grasp the basics, the
rest is the matter of time and google...

Re: Need some help with MySQL and on OSX

[Kolbe]

Thanks for the feedback guys. Been using mamp for awhile for other
frameworks (cake), but I still prefer python for scripting at the end
of the day.

Had a few issues with MySQLdb installation. 1st time using django and
it doesn't seem so str8 forward to deploy?

Will work on the recommendations and keep some documentation
throughout the process.

Cheers!

Re: Parsing feeds that are imported

[Chris McComas]

Also, using the update_feeds that's part of the Django Community
Aggregator worked initially, but I started over adding a m2m field on
the Feed model for Sites. I'll have several "sites" as part of the
Django app, like team1.mysite.com, team2.mysite.com, etc.

When I added that field to the models and tried to run the
update_feeds script it did nothing. It didn't import the feeds, didn't
throw an error, etc.

update_feeds:
https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com/blob/master/django_website/aggregator/management/commands/update_feeds.py
my models: http://dpaste.com/551322/

Parsing feeds that are imported

[Chris McComas]

This could be the wrong place to ask (maybe a BeautifulSoup)
question...

I have a Django app that is based around the Django Community
Aggregator, it gets feeds from various sites and displays them on my
site. What I am wanting to do, if possible, is when it gets a feed if
a certain zip code is the feed Title or Summary then I want to create
a entry for that zipcode with that feed?

I have a model for the zip codes, so the list to compare should be
pulled from that. There'd be a cron that'd run to do this, so for
example if one of the zip codes is 12345 and one of the feeds it gets
on the hourly cron has 12345 in the summary, then it'd go to the model
linking the two and create/save an entry.

Here are the pertinent models: http://dpaste.com/551223/

Accessing template name inside a template?

Check out BabelDjango: http://babel.edgewall.org/wiki/BabelDjango

Canadian French (1 123,45$).)

ManyToManyField limit_choices_to that instance via Django admin.

[mhulse]

Hello,

Here's some example code:

[code]

class Creative(...):

file2 = models.ManyToManyField('Asset', ...)

class Asset(...):
file = models.FileField(...)

[/code]

Can I use limit_choices_to to limit "Asset" to only the files that were 
uploaded by the currently viewed "Creative" instance?

In other words, if an uploaded file was not uploaded by the current 
instance, then I do not want to show it in the admin M2M choice filed.

Does that make sense?

I have googled around, but I have not had any luck implementing a solid 
solution. Any tips?

Thanks so much!

Cheers,
Micky

Making a login/create user interface

[raj]

Hey guys,
I'm sort of new to this, can someone talk me through on how to make a
simple login/create user interface? How exactly do I use the auth_user
stuff? Should I even use these given tables? What should the mysql
tables look like anyway? What about password encryption? If I don't
use the auth_user table, should I create a "login" app? Thank you.

Custom Model Field in Django

[Ajay]

I have a model lets say, MyModel which has a foreign key to another
model say Tag.

class MyModel(models.Model):
id=models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
name=models.CharField(max_length=200)
tag = models.ManyToMany(Tag)

I have approximately 50,000 instances of MyModel and each MyModel can
have 100 Tags.

If I use the above model I will get 5Million entries in a table,
mymodel_tag but I can use all the features of ORM.

However If I write custom methods and treat above field as an array of
integers and write custom code to retrieve/save ids of tags associated
with MyModel, I will have just 50K entries but I will have to write
custom code for retrieval etc.

My Question is :
a) Which one should be used in this case?
b) If I want to write above only using an extra column in mymodel
table which will be the array of ids of all the tags associated with
each MyModel, how do i do that?

Workaround for #13167?

[Nan]

Hi folks --

I'm having a problem with TemplateSyntaxErrors in Django 1.2 because a
third-party app's views aren't setting a variable that gets used in
filters (see [1]).

I can't set the variable in a context processor because I don't want
to override it in places where I'm setting it explicitly.

Are there any workarounds for this bug?

Thanks!

Re: Excel dumps to Office 10

[creecode]

Hello Bobby,

No answer just some thoughts.  Did the MIME type change for Excel between 
2003 and 2010?

If your file dump is in a text format and is delimited with tabs or commas, 
can you change your MIME type to a plain text one?  Although the apps may 
ask to convert when opening files that are in a text format, you'd need to 
test.

Personally I don't mind a little drift off topic on this one.  KG (original

Excel dumps to Office 10

[Bobby Roberts]

hey -

we are dumping results to excel as such:


response = render_to_response('templatename_excel.html',
{'trs':trs,})
filename='myfilename.xls'
response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename='
+ filename
response['Content-Type'] = 'application/vnd.ms-excel;
charset=utf-8'
return response


where trs is our record set.  This works fine for office 2003 and open
office but we get an invalid format error when trying to open the item
in office 2010... we can click OK on the alert box and the file opens
but it is still annoying.  Do you have to do anything specifically for
Excel 2010 to get that message to go away?

Re: How to implement multi-tenant, single DB, single site?

[br]

Thanks, this is very helpful and gives me some good ideas to start
implementing.

One question I have is:

If i'm using Django's built-in User class (and corresponding
authentication) and I want to be able to associate each user with an
organization and be able to access a user's organization from the view
via the request, what is the best/easiest way to do that?

How to disable security hash in django comments

Hi,

I'd like to ask you about one problem.
I need to remove security hash django comments module. I need to allow
posting to my app from external application just by posting the post
request.
How can I do that? Is there any way to disable this "security hash"
protection?

Re: Preview for the new website..

[br]

My team has a designer (designs stuff in Photoshop), a front-end
developer who is comfortable taking designer's photoshop and
converting it to HTML/CSS/Javascript (and does a bit with django
templates), and then the back-end team (myself and co.) who put the
django behind it.   We are a very design-driven company, and that
complicates my life a bit to put the django behind it (particularly
working with forms, where the front end guys have a lot of fancy
controls and ajaxy page flows, etc., which are not uncomplicated to
implement on the backend), but the sites end up looking cool and
(eventually) working nicely and in a very user-friendly way.

But I would guess not all startup companies, and particularly web
developers who aren't working for a company, have these competencies,
in which case you may look to buy or find public domain html templates
and tweak them and put the code behind them as the previous poster
suggests.

Also, Sencha (Ext JS) is a framework that seems to be geared toward
companies/people where web developers and computer scientists who are
more comfortable with object oriented programming than html and css
have to carry the burden of making a nice front-end for their site,
since the framework manages and dynamically creates a lot of the HTML
and CSS for you and allows you to write stuff in an object-oriented
framework built on javascript.  We looked at sencha but our front-end/
HTML guy hated it so we are sticking with Jquery even though I would
probably go with sencha if i wanted a very ajaxy site but didn't have
him around to tweak all the html/css stuff.  Not sure if/how sencha
plays nicely with Django forms -- in my mind there may be some
challenges there, given the two design philosophies, where sencha
renders your forms automatically for you based on your object
definitions.

But you will still need to install somehow MySQLdb and that is the main problem.

I don’t know about homebrew, but I remember that I had troubles getting MySQLdb

Ah, yes, of course.  I was mixing up model.save() and
model.FileField.save().  Thanks for setting me straight.  What I
wanted was this:

if form.is_valid():
f = request.FILES['file']
data_set = DataSet(file=f)
data_set.save()

Re: Django Admin Login - Redirecting back to login page

[Aidan]

Thanks for the input.

I've tried deleting all .pyc files and still get the same issue.

Also checked the cookies - I've got one sessionid and one csrftoken,
so that doesn't look like the issue.

I've tried using the chrome javascript debugger to look for 404's and
haven't found any.

I haven't deleted the database yet as there's data used (by South), to
do migrations on the tables underneath my models. I don't want to have
to recreate it all.

I worked as a spam fighter for a while, can share my insight:

The general rationale for blocking dynamic and dial-ip IP blocks, is that
those IP blocks contain a very high ratio of botnet-infected machines (a
major source of spam), and a low ratio of legitimate e-mail sources.

Generally, the standard way to avoid these problems is to relay your
outgoing e-mail through the SMTP server of your ISP.

I get a dynamic IP - now and then I get a blacklisted one. That must be

Maybe your email address or the whole domain was being blacklisted for some
reason I don't really know about SMTP and stuff, but aren't there
grey-/blacklisting services out there that any mailserver can access?

I have seen this (though not with admin -- with a custom site login form)
when somehow two sessionid cookies have been set. Using the browser tools to
delete the sessionid cookies and try again allows login. I don't believe
we've tracked down yet how the multiple sessionid cookies are getting set.

Re: Django Admin Login - Redirecting back to login page

I faced this a long time ago and it nearly drove me insane. Eventually I
just started a new project from scratch and the problem disappeared.

Wild guesses:


   - Open the JavaScript debug toolbar of Google Chrome (CTRL+SHIFT+J), then
   reload the site and see if there are any 404 errors (that means your static
   / media files are not served correctly)
   - Refresh your browers cache, restart the browser and try again

Django Admin Login - Redirecting back to login page

[Aidan]

I'm having trouble with the Django Admin. My login page appears ok at
http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin but when I try to login with a valid
username or password the page seems to refresh - it reappears with
text boxes empty. It doesn't display any errors on the page (logging
in with invalid username / password brings up all the red errors you'd
expect).

I'm not sure what's going on here. The console gives me the following:

(cache) C:\PythonProjects\CacheProject\cache>python manage.py
runserver
Validating models...

0 errors found
Django version 1.3, using settings 'cache.settings'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/

You cannot, because doing so is dangerous and counter intuitive. Read
up on 'session fixation attacks', or my previous reply.

Nope, this is normal behavior: the javascript value `null`, when converted to a 
string, becomes the string `"null"`. String conversion is exactly that $.post 
does with its POSTdata in the normal case of application/x-www-form-urlencoded. 
So Django gets a string in its POST value. Nothing to see here.

The alternative is to avoid using `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`, and 
instead use a JSON-encoded POST body. That's significantly more work on both 
sides, but it will allow you to send complete (typed) JSON data to your server.

On the JS side, you'll have to call $.ajax directly (rather than just $.post) 
using the following options:

$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: your-endpoint,
// This sets the POST body directly, to a JSON-encoded data structure
data: JSON.stringify(your_javascript_payload),
// jquery tries to convert your POST body through post-processing, tell 
it to leave your POST data as-is
processData: false,
// your callbacks
});

On the Django side, you will not be able to use request.POST. Instead, you'll 
have to go through `HttpRequest.raw_post_data` or to use HttpRequest as a file:

data = json.loads(request)
or
data = json.loads(request.raw_post_data)

Re: Request and null value

[Constantine]

Thanks, i've workaround this with empty string.
I was surprised when saw raw_post_data which looks very similar to GET
string. I confused this behaviour with JSON parser.

I suspect this is the problem: you create an empty instnce of DataSet
and then call its save method. model.save has three optional arguments
[1], in this case you call it with force_insert='foo', force_update=f.

Both f and 'foo' evaluate to True, which is an obvious conflict.

Writing my first view

[bahare hoseini]

hi there,
i use django vs1.3
i started editing urls.py to look loke this:

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *



from django.contrib import admin

admin.autodiscover()



urlpatterns = patterns('',

(r'^polls/$', 'polls.views.index'),

(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/$', 'polls.views.detail'),

(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/results/$', 'polls.views.results'),

(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/vote/$', 'polls.views.vote'),

(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),

)


but when i save it and run http//127.0.0.1:8000/admin/polls , the page can
not be loaded and the errors are irrelevant such as:



  File "F:\Program Files\python
2.7.1\lib\site-packages\django\views\defaults.py", line 30, in server_error

t = loader.get_template(template_name) # You need to create a 500.html
template.



  File "F:\Program Files\python
2.7.1\lib\site-packages\django\template\loader.py", line 157, in
get_template

template, origin = find_template(template_name)



  File "F:\Program Files\python
2.7.1\lib\site-packages\django\template\loader.py", line 138, in
find_template

raise TemplateDoesNotExist(name)


  , i should mention that i don't forget "python manage.py runserver".
can someone help me please?
