Re: Separate User namespace

[Timboy]

I have thought about this and will probably do so. I was just hoping
it would be easy to just add an additional namespace. Seems cleaner to
me.

have an idea on an additional user namespace?

Separate User namespace

[Timboy]

I have a normal User model for our private users of our project we
also have a UserProfile for those users.

We need to have a public portion of our site as well with a separate
user namespace.

Please advise the best way to achieve our goal.

Re: automatic updates for a set of model objects via email

[Timboy]

Reading back through I might still not have explained simply enough.

I have a VehicleSearch Model with a m2m to Vehicle and a FK to User. I
want to be able to notify the user that has the VehicleSearch object
when a vehicle inside of the m2m has been added or updated.

I'm looking for the best way to cross reference the new ones and the
best way to handle the notifications that the specific VehicleSearch
was updated with N new vehicles and there were changes to N vehicles.

TIA

Re: automatic updates for a set of model objects via email

[Timboy]

Let me be more specific to my needs:

Here is my example AutoSearch model:
name = charfield
uuid = uuid
query = charfield
autos = m2m
updated = boolean
emailed_on_update = boolean
emailed_on_new = boolean

Here are my needs:
 * updates to this search send the user an email
 * the user needs to know which autos were updated
 * new autos email the user
 * the user needs to know which autos are new

Questions assuming 1000 users.

 * Should this be a cron?
 * should I add two more m2m's to autos 1 for new autos and 1 for
updated autos? or is there a better way to keep track for the user?

Thanks.

automatic updates for a set of model objects via email

I want my users to be able to be updated for changes to specific

Let's say a user does a search of vehicle listings and the search
returns 3 cars. I want them to be able to be alerted when any of those
three car listings get updated. What's the best way to accomplish
this?

Does this data get checked to make sure that it is what was on the

If I have a list of choices 1,2,3 and someone modifies the form to add

Multi Page Form With Database Persistence

[Timboy]

I need to create a multiple page form that upon submit the information
is saved to the database so the user can finish it later.

I want to be able to check the data filled out on the form and
depending on the values entered present different pages to the user.

I know this is possible, I just don't know how and the best way to
accomplish this. I have looked into the FormWizard but it looks like
it is more meant for forms that go in a straight line.

Formwizard
Page1 --> Page2 --> Page3 --> Page4 --> Page5 --> Page6 --> Page7 -->
Page8

I want my form to be able to skip a page or insert one, depending on
the input given on those pages.
Page1 --> Page3 --> Page5 --> Page7 --> Page8
or
Page1 --> Page2 --> Page4 --> Page5 --> Page8


Example of my model:

#models.py
from django.db import models

class Poll(models.Model):
question1 = models.CharField(max_length=200)
pub_date1 = models.DateTimeField('date published')
question2_state = USStateField()
question3 = models.CharField(max_length=200)
question4 = models.CharField(max_length=200)
question5 = models.CharField(max_length=200)
question6...
agree = models.BooleanField(help_text='I agree that this is
correct')

#forms.py
from django import forms

 class PollForm1(forms.Form):
 question1 = forms.CharField(max_length=200)
 question2 = forms.ChoiceField(max_length=200)

 class PollForm2(forms.Form):
 question3 = forms.CharField(max_length=200)

 class PollForm3(forms.Form):
 question4 = forms.CharField(max_length=200)

 class PollForm4(forms.Form):
 question5 = forms.CharField(max_length=200)
 question6 = forms.CharField(max_length=200)

 class PollForm5...
 class PollFormN...
 agree = forms.BooleanField()

Re: how to use email instead of username for user authentication?

[Timboy]

What's the best way to add users with an auto generating username? ie:
Taub.John, Smith.Tim, Smith.Tim2

Re: How to create ability to send email from the admin with django?

[Timboy]

In two lines:

from django.core.mail import send_mail

send_mail('Subject here', 'Here is the message.', 'f...@example.com',
['t...@example.com'], fail_silently=False)

Mail is sent using the SMTP host and port specified in the EMAIL_HOST
and EMAIL_PORT settings. The EMAIL_HOST_USER and EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD
settings, if set, are used to authenticate to the SMTP server, and the
EMAIL_USE_TLS setting controls whether a secure connection is used.

Re: persistent get url question

I figured it out. I passed the requested calendars to my template and
used a forloop to pass them as a get request to the URL.

persistent get url question

[Timboy]

I've created a calendar view and users can select multiple calendars
with checkboxes. It passes this: ?
calendars=CALNAME=CALNAME2=CALNAME2 to the url and
returns the proper events but when I change months it goes back to the
default calendar...

how can I make the selected calendars persistent?

I was searching for some sort of solution and ran across the following
link for 0.96. I'm hoping there is some sort of built in way. I would
think that this would be somewhat of a common need for sites.

Re: wondering how to do something similar to save_model for inline.

[Timboy]

Good call on the ModelAdmin spot. (user contacted me by email to see
if I had a solution yet.)

I got the formset.save() from here:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/modelforms/#the-save-method
saying: "If your formset contains a ManyToManyField, you'll also need
to call formset.save_m2m() to ensure the many-to-many relationships
are saved properly."

Works now just had it in the wrong spot. thx!

Great link. I was really excited to try it.

Here is my new inline:
class rentalInline(admin.TabularInline):
model= Rent
extra = 3
raw_id_fields = ('movie',)
exclude = ['rented_by']

instance.rented_by = request.user
instance.save()
formset.save()

I have an admin object where I want to pass in the request.user on
save. It works fine in my normal admin class but not for the inline
version.

(works fine here):
class RentAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
exclude = ['rented_by']
list_display = ('renter', 'movie', 'late', 'owed', 'paid',
'due_date', 'rented_by')
sort_by = '-due_date'
raw_id_fields = ('renter', 'movie')

(but not here):
class rentalInline(admin.TabularInline):
model= Rent
extra = 3
raw_id_fields = ('movie',)
exclude = ['rented_by']

def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):
if not change:
obj.rented_by = request.user
obj.save()

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: How do wire Userprofile to UserAdmin ?

[Timboy]

The problem with this solution is that you are unable to sort and/or
filter by anything you "wire" to the User admin page. #9463 is one I
have posted a bit ago.

Django storage method question

[Timboy]

I'm having an issue passing a buffered StringIO to the FileField
object.

Here is my code:

##models.py
from django.db import models
from business.models import Business

class PdfFile(models.Model):
business = models.ForeignKey(Business)
pdf = models.FileField(upload_to='get_pdf_path')
created = models.DateTimeField(editable=False)

##console
from cStringIO import StringIO
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
from pdf.models import PdfFile
from business.models import Business
from django.core.files.base import ContentFile
from datetime import datetime

buffer = StringIO()

p = canvas.Canvas(buffer)

p.drawString(100, 100, "Hello world.")

p.showPage()
p.save()
business1 = business.objects.get(id=1)

f = ContentFile(buffer.getvalue())
PdfFile.pdf.save('blah.pdf', f)
###
I've tried this as well:
path = default_storage.save('pdf/1/1.pdf', ContentFile(buffer.getvalue
()))
test = PdfFile(listing = listing1,pdf=path, created = datetime.now())
test.save()

The issue with thtis is that the path object actually creates the file
and then when I pass it to save it actually sets the file to my media
directory/test and doesn't name the pdf or even show the proper pdf
dir.

My goal is to pass my StringIO object directly to the FileField for
upload to my upload_to dir...

TIA
