Re: Time estimation for a Django project

2007-11-14 Thread hass

that's a very bold move.

I'd say that if you can't estimate the time required, you're not ready
to take on that project. But you've got to start somewhere, good luck
with it.

and once you guess about the time, be sure to at least triple it.

Model Method Regular Expressions

2007-06-07 Thread hass

I'm trying to set up a model with a field that swallows a healthy
dollop of html, such as a youtube embed code.

But then, I want to use regular expressions to strip that code into
pieces that I can access independently.  My first thought is that some
regular expression kungfu could do that parsing and then store it as
models fields.

Would it make sense to do this as a model method? Would that do the
parsing repeatedly, and not just when the object is added?

Where would you have the regular expressions run?

thanks for your help.

Accesing a property and methd in the admin site

2007-03-12 Thread hass

I just got my first django app up: http://brackets.bracketboy.net/ Not
very impressive, but I'm still excited about it. anyway . . .


I'm having trouble accesing a method through the admin interface as
part of a choices list. It seems to work fine throughout the site and
the admin interface, but not in choices selection. In the choices I
get .  Any ideas?

Some of the relevant code:

  def _get_team_2(self):
  if self.round == 1 :
return
Team.objects.filter(seed=self.seed_2).filter(region=self.region)
[0].name

  else:
prev_game =   Game.objects.get( id = self.id ).prev_game_2_id
prev_winner = Game.objects.get( id = prev_game ).winner.id
returnTeam.objects.get( id = prev_winner ).name

  team_2 = property( _get_team_2)

  winner = models.IntegerField(choices=((team_1.id, team_1),
(team_2.id, team_2),),)


(Since the winner field is just storing id's, I had initlaly hoped to
do it with a foreign key and limit_choices_to, but I wasn't able to
even get that close. But that's a question for another day, unless
somebody has the answer)
