Re: Is it possible to output a graph from Matplotlib into Django like this?
Thanks for your help.
I went with 2 views, 1 for the image and 1 for the html.

Re: Is it possible to output a graph from Matplotlib into Django like this?
You have to bear with me but where does background come from? So I can
use the save() method from the PIL library is that right?
And I can do something like this:
return render_to_response('template.html', {'graph':response})
Where graph is just a variable in my django template (and not )
Is that right?

Actually, could you illustrate how you would go about using 2 views as

Re: Is it possible to output a graph from Matplotlib into Django like this?
One reason why I don't quite like the idea is because I am writing a
reporting webapp and there are many different graphs that can
generated. Needing to write 2 views for 1 type of graph can get pretty
tedious!

Re: Is it possible to output a graph from Matplotlib into Django like this?
I will try to the 2 views method and see how I get on but in it would
be great if you could answer my questions too!
Why does it go against best practices?
How would one go about doing it anyway?

Is it possible to output a graph from Matplotlib into Django like this?
This is the give example from Matplotlib for Django:
def simple(request):
import random
from matplotlib.backends.backend_agg import FigureCanvasAgg as
FigureCanvas
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
from matplotlib.dates import DateFormatter
fig=Figure()
ax=fig.add_subplot(111)
x=[]
y=[]
now=datetime.datetime.now()
delta=datetime.timedelta(days=1)
for i in range(10):
x.append(now)
now+=delta
y.append(random.randint(0, 1000))
ax.plot_date(x, y, '-')
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(DateFormatter('%Y-%m-%d'))
fig.autofmt_xdate()
canvas=FigureCanvas(fig)
response=django.http.HttpResponse(content_type='image/png')
canvas.print_png(response)
return response
Is there anyway I can return the image like this `return
render_to_response('template.html', {'graph': }`

Re: Django app and Amazon AWS (beginner)
According to djangoproject, deploying Django with apache and mod_wsgi is the way to go. I keep seeing these terms over and over again but I've had it explained to me over and over but I still don't get it. I know this is getting a bit off topic but it would be great if someone could take another stab and explain how apache and mod_wsgi fits in with the deployment.

Django app and Amazon AWS (beginner)
Hi guys, I've been lurking on the forums and groups for a while now but I've recently ran into some problems I couldn't figure out whilst learning to code. Basically, I have a simple working webapp on my local machine. I've signed up for the free Amazon tier and have been messing around with it since. So my question is, once I run python manage.py runserver ec2-122-248-194-176.ap- southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com:8000 & Everytime I close my terminal the site goes down even though I added the '&' to run it as a background task. Is there a better way of doing this? Are there any resources/books that shows you how to deploy on Amazon? Why isn't there a heroku for Django? Ok, that became a 3 part question :) Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
