Re: How to structure this django application

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hey Rich,

Do take the time to peruse the book. It would be time well spent. Also, do
keep in mind that the recommendations therein do not apply to a Django blog
or CRM sustem etc, per se. They would apply just as well if you were
building a RESTful mobile app backend.

The problem you describe of managing users etc is just a requirements
specification. The advice in the book is general enough across
implementations of solutions in broad problem domains. It's not a recipe
book, but more a collection of chefs' knives.

Best regards,
Sithembewena

Re: How to structure this django application

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hey Rich,

My best recommendation for structuring Django projects (and for
optimization and a myriad other goodies) would be the book Two Scoops of
Django by Daniel and Audrey Roy Greenfeld. I could say a lot but the bottom
line is, check the book out. It's at https://www.twoscoopspress.com/

There are various factors to consider and this book (to me, at least) best
encapsulates all those. I believe that it also applies for newer versions
of Django than v1.8.

Best regards,
Sithembewena

Phone number field in form/ model

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi,

Has anyone captured phone number information using a Form/ModelForm
instance? I have the field as an IntegerField in my model and (for obvious
reasons) it truncates the leading '0'. How have you solved this problem,
anyone?

Re: Home Page

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Have you done the tutorial? Django is suitable for everything you listed,
it's just that you need to learn how to implement those things in Django.
This means you need to know how to use Django.

I suggest you do the tutorial first.

Serving static files and media in Django 1.7.1

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi everyone,

I have a Django 1.7.1 project structured as per documentation. In it, I
have an app called "mainsite". In mainsite, I have
templates/mainsite/index.html and static/mainsite/bootstrap.css. In the
index template, I use {% load staticfiles %} and then for css I have the
following link:  However, when I load the page in the browser, the css
does not load and when in "view source" mode, I click the link href
("/static/css/bootstrap.css"). This generates a 404 error.

What am I missing? Any suggestions welcome.

P.S: I have the STATIC_URL = '/static/' setting defined in the settings
file.

Cannot import models from utility script

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi all,

I am using Django 1.7 and I have a package called 'utilities' next to my
app package like so:

--> my project
--> my_app
-- __init__.py
-- models.py
--> utilities
-- __init__.py
-- do_something.py

Inside do_something.py in utilities, I am getting an ImportError when
trying to do 'from my_app.models import Blah'.

 ImportError: No module named my_app.models

Any ideas as to what I am missing here?

Re: Suggestions about building new ecommerce website

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

As you are a one-man team and would like to minimise time to market and
cost, I highly recommend Django. Fantastic community, fairly straight
forward to learn framework. Rails has more magic than I find useful when
learning and Django's admin rocks.

Re: ORM performance

Re: Django 1.7 tutorial: Use generic views

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

I suggest typing:
- manage.py shell
- from polls import views
- dir(views)

What output do you get? i.e, nspect views like the regular python module
that it is.

Preparing virtualenvwrapper for Django 1.6 development

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi everyone,

I am developing on a Windows 8.1 machine and wold like to setup
virtualenvironment via virtualenvwrapper so as to have a properly set up
Python development environment.

I am referring to Jeff Knupp's guide at
http://www.jeffknupp.com/blog/2013/12/18/starting-a-django-16-project-the-right-way/

After installation of virtualenvwrapper via pip, the guide says:
"
After it's installed, add the following lines to your shell's start-up file
(.zshrc, .bashrc, .profile, etc).

export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
export PROJECT_HOME=$HOME/directory-you-do-development-in
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
"

My issue is, I do not understand what these lines are doing (I have a vague
idea but assumptions can be deadly). Moreover, it is clear that the
instructions were authored with a UNIX environment in mind.

Would anyone be so kind as to translate this to Windows speak, as well as
perhaps pointing out what file this would go into in a Windows environment?

Thanks in advance :)

Kind regards,
Sithu.

Re: django beginner

I suggest you do so. It is important to understand how the framework works
before attempting to create your own projects or even using existing apps.

Re: The Django 1.7 tees!

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Russell,

I hope you are well. As it turned out, my order was never received (I never
got the confirmation emails in question). Is there the slightest
possibility that you could start a *final* TeeSpring campaign for the final
release of 1.7? I see that RC1 is out.

Any concession would be hugely appreciated.

Kind regards,
Lloyd

Re: The Django 1.7 tees!

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Russell,

Emails from Teespring? I cannot seem to find any - not even in my trash??
:( You are right though, the currency arbitrage at most banks is shocking -
and the fees are not insignificant.

I am not sure what went on here and I am really jittery because I badly
want a 1.7 tee. This is a milestone release and I want to keep  a memento.
I actually wanted to go back and buy a second, which is when I realised I
knew nothing of the first transaction. If nothign happens i will just ask
the mailing list if anyone has a small tee they want to let go off.

Again, thanks for your help (and patience).

Kind regards,
Lloyd

Hi Russell,

Thanks for the feedback. I still do not see anything processed on the card
- am getting a bit worried here. Is there some way I could find out what
happened to my order?

Kind regards,

Hey Russell,

I placed an order for a small tee, but I see my card has not been debited

Re: [Tutor] PyCountry currency formatting woes

That should be ".encode('utf-8') - it is separated by a dash.

Re: PyCountry currency formatting woes

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Thanks, i was actually getting the error information to update the post.
Apoligies to waste your time posting here - I could not find an appropriate
PyCountry discussion list and my next best bet seemed to be a Python users'
list.

For those who care to look, the error is as follows (a concise example from
an interactive shell:

import pycountry
country = pycountry.countries.get(alpha2='DE')
currency = pycountry.currencies.get(numeric=country.numeric)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/pycountry/db.py", line 83, in get
return self.indices[field][value]
KeyError: '276'

The obvious issue here is that the pycountry.countries collection does not
contain a currency with a numeric of 276 (Germany's numeric) - yet it does
contain the Euro. Any ideas as to what the way around this may be?

PyCountry currency formatting woes

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi everyone,

I have a function which accepts an alpha2 country code and a price string,
where the aim is to get the country's currency and use the currency.letter
property of that currency to format the supplied price string.

The above works fine so far - yet it falls over when called with Germany as
the country as follows:

currency = pycountry.currencies.get(numeric=country.numeric)

The function implementation is as follows:

def formatPrice(self, alpha2CountryCode, price):
"""
@param alpha2CountryCode: The 2-character country code for which to
format the price value
@param price: The price value as a string
@return: A string representing the formatted monetary value for
this country for this price.

#Get country by alpha2 code
country = pc.countries.get(alpha2=alpha2CountryCode.upper())

#Get currency by country's numeric and format price
currency = pc.currencies.get(numeric=country.numeric)
letter = currency.letter
formattedCurrency = "%s %s" % (letter, price)

return formattedCurrency

Any ideas as to what the issue may be?

Thanks :)

If you are referring to reordering fields, yes it is possible. For details,

Paginating YouTube API results

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi everyone,

I am using django-endless-pagination to paginate YouTube API results. I
have a view called 'search' and a url pattern as follows:
url(r'^search/$', 'find_music.views.search', name='search'),

In the view, I check request.method and handle it as follows:
- if POST, get search term and fetch youtube api results as list, which i
paginate in template
- if GET (user clicks pagination, url e.g. '/search/?page=2'), i look for
request.GET['page'] , which I would like to use to paginate my video list
created in the POST.

Question is, how best can i keep my video list from the POST method across
requests, so that i can paginate the same list? I have no search params
when users paginate, so I need to keep the original list and paginate that.
Any ideas?

Thank you.

Capturing a search query + params in Django 1.5

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi,

I have a simple web application in which I have a search box. When a user
enters a query in the box and hits "search", they get a list of results via
a popular search API.

My issue is that I am using django-endless-pagination to paginate (no
kidding!) the API response - after some formatting, of course. When I click
next, the pagination appends url parameters. I am wondering which url
pattern to use to capture said parameters. The url scheme is as follows:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/search/ -> works fine, goes to my search view.
http://127.0.0.1:8000/search/?page=2 -> after a user clicks on the
pagination links. I have no url pattern to handle this.

I am no regex expert. I also do not have an XKCD tee :-/

SOS?

Thanks.

Adding YouTube video id to url

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi,

I am using the YouTube API to fetch video data and display it on a web
page. As part of the html template I have an anchor tag with an href
directing to my Django 1.5 app. as follows:



The url definition in urls.py is as follows:

url(r'^(?P\w+)$', 'find_music.views.watch', name='watch'),

When I load the page, I get a NoReverseMatch exception as follows:

Reverse for 'watch' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments
'{u'video_id': 'D-dNA0NwLSw'}' not found.


What could I be missing?

Thanks.

Try the following:

Then use it in the url declaration (see the official Django tutorial).

Django installation on vanilla Mac OSX 10.8.2 mountain lion

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi everyone,

I just began using a new Mac at work (running OSX 10.8.2 Mountain Lion) and
it seems such a mission to install Django. Python 2.7.2. is already
installed. Following the official Django installation instructions, I get
no further than trying to get wget-> which I will ned to compile with a C
Compiler -> which I can get by downloading 1+ gigs of xCode. Really?

Could somebody please point out a safe and straight-forward way to install
Django on Mountain Lion?

Thanks.

Travelport API integration with Django

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi,

I am working on a component of a Django web application (travel booking
engine) which aims to integrate with the Travelport Universal API. It would
be great to find out if anyone here has had to do something similar and, if
applicable, to hear how they handled the integration.

The API provides workflows, which are really units of work such as creating
and booking itineraries. I have ideas, but i would like to find out how
others have approached this.

Thoughts welcome. Thanks.

Re: Python Fabric manage.py problem

I had a similar issue - running manage.py through Fabric simply didn't pan

I do intend to look into this. I am sure it has (and is being) done plenty

Re: Returning data from view to ajax call

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

What data format is your view returning? Django views return HTTP response
objects (by default, at least) - although Python lists (and other Python
collections?) should work when passed into a view in its context (I have
found Django querysets to be an exception).

AJAX is Asynchronous Javascript, so I presume that an AJAX call would
expect something like JSON output from a callable. I guess with some pain
one could get Javascript to ingest Django querysets? I couldn't think of a
sensible reason to do so - and I stand to be corrected.

Re: London based Django Dev: UX/UI (£300 per day)

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

I'd churn out code for that budget. In my neck of the woods, it's nothing
to scoff at.

However, I have not seen the code, so I cannot say whether or not the
time-frame and remuneration tally. It is an easy mistake to accept a
time-frame and a rate without seeing code, only to find that the code base
needs a lot of refactoring, or even a re-write. Also, good developers are
hard to bring on-board nowadays due to any combination of budget, time and
location factors. Flexibility on one of those three factors would help
catalyse the search.

Re: Static files not served

Hi @der_fenix,

My STATIC_URL setting is as follows: STATIC_URL = '/static/'

I suspect that Django's development server's static serving does not like
noscript tags? I have no idea. I might poke around later ... starting from
Django's 'django.contrib.staticfiles.views.serve()' call.

Re: Static files not served

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Update: removing the noscript tags around the css tags in the template
solves the issue. I am no clientside scripting expert, but it is my
understanding that noscript tags accommodate browsers with scripting turned
off, or legacy browsers? Surely the css should work by default?

I know this is not an html mailing list, but has anybody else encountered
this?

Another thing i noticed is that all this is not a problem when i view the
templates from outside a Django project - i.e. as a standalone html website.

Static files not served

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi all,

I have a local development project where I put all static media in a
'static' subdirectory of my app (/project/app/static/). I then created a
'static' directory in the root folder of my project (/project/static/) and
specified that as my STATIC_ROOT in settings.py.

When I run the './manage.py collectstatic' command, all static media are
added to the static root as expected. In the templates, usage is as
follows: '' and so
on, but when I view the page in a browser the CSS and js are not applied.
If I view page source and click on the generated links to static resources,
I do see them.

One thing I do notice is that two of the missing css files are in the
document's noscript tag and the links for all three are not clickable when
viewing source. There are three in there, so one loads fine.

Any pointers to what I could be missing? Thanks.

Re: Django-Tastypie and MySQL

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Much better. I don't think that you have to put quotes when you define
player_club. Just go, player_club = models.ForeignKey(Club) - you want to
pass the Club model, not a string.

Regarding the question, if the player can only belong to one club, then a
foreignkey relationship is correct because it's a ManyToOne (Many Players,
One Club). If the player can belong to many clubs, and a club can have many
players, then use a ManyToMany relationship (Many Players in one Club, Many
Clubs for One Player).

See the following, imagine that the Article is a Player and the Publication
is a Club:

Re: Newbie with Demo issues

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Strat,

Tom is right - the issue is the name of the view in your template. Reverse
takes the name of your view and builds it's url. In this case, you are
calling the view 'detail/' (with a trailing slash) instead of 'detail'.

Cheers,
Lloyd

Re: Django-Tastypie and MySQL

I meant, delete the PlayerClub linking table/ model. The foreignkey
relationship takes care of that need.

Re: Django-Tastypie and MySQL

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hey,

The player belongs to a club. So in the player model you should have

player_club = models.ForeignKey(Club)

then remove the foreign key in the Club model. Also, notice casing - your
variable names should be lowercase and if it's more than one word, join it
with underscores. It's Python convention.

Using Fabric to clear database records

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Greetings,

I've got a Django 1.5.1. project where I have a Video model (basically
saving video metadata). I would like to create a fabfile in my project
folder so that when I run 'fab production refresh', the list of videos
saved in the production environment (Amazon EC2) should be cleared out and
any new videos added should have ids starting from 1 again.

Any ideas on implementing this?

Re: Django-Tastypie and MySQL

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Hélio,

I happen to be using Tastypie for the first time as well and so far, the
documentation is comprehensive enough. You could start here:

http://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorial.html
http://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/cookbook.html
http://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/resources.html#id11

Just FYI, the documentation assumes that one has working knowledge of
Django.

Re: Use different apps or not?

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Philippe,

I think that it really depends on how modular you would like your Django
project to be. Do you want the stats generation functionality to be
separately pluggable from the pie-charting functionality? Is your
gather_data app large enough (number of models) to warrant breaking it
down? If so, perhaps you could separate the apps. If not, you might want to
just have one.

A good place to look for this sort of advice is Daniel Greenfeld and Audrey
Roy's new book found at https://django.2scoops.org/ (see Chapter 4:
''Fundamentals of Django App Design") . In it, they say (quote): "In
essence, each app should be tightly focused on its task. If an app can’t be
explained in a single
sentence of moderate length, or you need to say ‘and’ more than once, it
probably means the app is
too big and should be broken up.

Re: Use different apps or not?

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

By the way, the book mentioned above - "Two Scoops of Django" - makes very
good reading for Django in general. I believe a good way to get apps
talking to each other is through the use urls.py configurations in
conjunction with views. More on that in the official Django tutorial.

Re: Use different apps or not?

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Phillipe,

I think that it really depends on how modular you would like your Django
project to be. Do you want the stats generation functionality to be
separately pluggable from the pie-charting functionality? Is your
gather_data app large enough (number of models) to warrant breaking it
down? If so, perhaps you could separate the apps. If not, you might want to
just have one.

Django apps are really Python packages. Do not worry about how you will
pass data "between" them - if they are enabled in your INSTALLED_APPS
global variable in settings.py, they will be loaded and you can import each
from the other in your views.py file or wherever you need to import them,
then call functions from each as you require and pass the necessary
arguments.

A good place to look for this sort of advice is Daniel Greenfeld and Audrey
Roy's new book found at https://django.2scoops.org/ (see Chapter 4:
''Fundamentals of Django App Design") . In it, they say (quote): "In
essence, each app should be tightly focused on its task. If an app can’t be
explained in a single
sentence of moderate length, or you need to say ‘and’ more than once, it
probably means the app is
too big and should be broken up.

Re: {% url %} template tag not resolving app url in template

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Issue resolved.

The problem was a similar usage of a url template tag without a namespace -
in the same template. All I had to do was check the correct line number in
the template.

Thanks to all. Time for a walk outside.

Re: {% url %} template tag not resolving app url in template

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi all,

I have the correct url, but the dev server seems to be caching my old
template, even though I updated it to include namespacing. I have restarted
the server and cleared my browser cache.

The latter. I did not call reverse explicitly (not yet). I have implemented

Re: {% url %} template tag not resolving app url in template

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Tom,

I see what you meant. In the documentation (tutorial) namespacing is used
in the form example. Even with that in place, I am having trouble.

I did notice that I am not getting a 404 error instead, because the url
being built is dumplicated. Please see the trace below (errant line ibeing
#8):

 Using the URLconf defined in mysite.urls, Django tried these URL patterns,
in this order:

   1. ^$ [name='plant_refurbishment']
   2. ^about_us/$ [name='about_us']
   3. ^instrumentation_and_control/$ [name='instrumentation_and_control']
   4. ^machining/$ [name='machining']
   5. ^industrial_solutions/$ [name='industrial_solutions']
   6. ^trailer_refurbishment/$ [name='trailer_refurbishment']
   7. ^trailer_spares/$ [name='trailer_spares']
   8. ^contact_us/ ^$ [name='contact_us']
   9. ^admin/

The current URL, contact_us/contact_us/, didn't match any of these.

Re: {% url %} template tag not resolving app url in template

Thanks, Tom.

I am not sure how you mean? In the contact_us app, I am not explicitly
calling reverse. I only have the following:

from django.shortcuts import render, reverse

def contact_us(request):
return render(request, 'contact_us/contact_us.html')

Re: {% url %} template tag not resolving app url in template

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Andrey,

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that with no success. According to the
current documentation, that would be an issue with versions older than 1.5?
(where one would use url from future).

For some reason, i suspect that the url tag cannot resolve a url for a view
in a "plugged-in" app? (base url + app-view url?).

{% url %} template tag not resolving app url in template

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi everyone,

I have a project based on the latest Django version (1.5.1.) where I
created a contact_us application. The project has a urls.py file with some
url patterns. The contact_us app implements its own urls.py file
(decoupling). In the project's urls.py file (just above the admin site's
url pattern), i have the following url pattern:

url(r'^contact_us/', include('contact_us.urls', namespace="contact_us")),

and in the contact_us app's urls.py file, I have the following url pattern:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^$', views.contact_us, name='contact_us'),
)

In a template residing in the contact_us app's own templates folder, I use
the url template tag as follows:

Contact Us

resulting in the following exception:

*NoReverseMatch at /contact_us/*

Reverse for 'contact_us' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not
found.

Any ideas what I could be missing? I namespaced the contact_us urls include
in the main urls'py file and there is a simple contact_us view in the
contact_us app which renders an existing template.

Thanks.

Re: What's your opinion about nested apps?

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

I also suspect that this sort of nesting will affect plugability of apps -
what is wrong with a simple approach?

Re: What's your opinion about nested apps?

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Why does this sort of nesting even occur? Why not use the generic Django
project/ app structure, where you have a project and apps under a project,
instead of apps under other apps? Why would it ever be necessary to 'nest'
apps in other apps?

Re: Django community, is it active?

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

"Working with a framework is like any relationship... you make sacrifices..
*the love you get back depends on what you put in*.." - hehe ... moving on
swiftly ...

Vis. the bears, I can only recommend bear spray - and a good one, at that.

To address the queries at hand - coming from several languages and
platforms, I was asking the same questions a few years ago. I evaluated
other popular MVC frameworks and stuck with Django. Not a regret had to
date.

- Django "just works" for a large share of "general" uses. The admin app is
a boon for those not too keen on reinventing the wheel when it comes to
"must-have" admin site functionality
- Django documentation is the amongst the best of any framework docs I have
had to consult. It is updated frequently and is never lagging too far back
from the current framework release. I will refrain from mentioning the
names of certain alternatives in this regard
- the Django community is sizeable and very active
- Django plays well on an array of development platforms. Linux, Windows,
Mac? Behaviour is consistent. This would be attributable in no small part
to Python's own cross-platform usability.
- Python. I do appreciate that the right tool must be used for each job,
but I am also still waiting to see that tool which would outdo Python in
most problem domains, at least relating to developer productivity.
