Customizing form fields display

2009-01-07 Thread sagi s

Can anyone suggest a way to customize model field display?

For example if I have a model called Course with fields n_girls and
n_students,

if for a particular record n_girls = 4 and n_students = 10, I want to
display for n_girls: "40% (4)" instead of just "4".

Obviously I can do this in the template but there are multiple fields
I want to customize and the lack of switch/elsif statement in the
templates would make for a deeply nested structure so I'd rather do it
upstream in the model.

Thanks in advance.

Extra attributes in model fields

2008-12-31 Thread sagi s

I'd like to store extra attributes in the model fields so I can
control the subsequent field-specific behavior from there.

Let's say I have a model that stores metrics I then need to chart.

In the view, I prefer not to have some logic that says:

metrics = Metric.object.all()
create_chart([metric.productivity for metric in metrics], "bar_chart")
create_chart([metric.defects for metric in metrics], "pie_chart")

I'd rather have something like:

for metric_type in Metric.fields:
  create_chart([metric."metric_type" for metric in metrics],
metric."metric_type".chart_type)

The big advantage here is that I can add a new metrics element from
the model without changing the view (Open-Close principle...)

So it would be great if I could do  something like:

class Metric(models.Model):
  productivity = PositiveIntegerField(
verbose_name = "the number of hot dogs we have produced during
that period",
chart_type = "bar_chart"
   )
  ...

However the model rejects fields it does not recognize.

I tried creating my own doctored model to wrap the built-in models:

class _PositiveIntegerField(models.fields.CharField):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
if "extra_attrs" in kwargs:
self.extra_attrs = kwargs["extra_attrs"]
del kwargs["extra_attrs"]
models.fields.PositiveIntegerField.__init__(self, *args,
**kwargs)

This way I can do:

class Metric(models.Model):
  productivity = _PositiveIntegerField(
verbose_name = "the number of hot dogs we have produced during
that period",
extra_attrs = {'chart_type' : "bar_chart"}
   )
  ...

There are two problems here:
1. I'd need to wrap every field type
2. In the ModelForm I create from this model the type still registers
as the built-in type:

class MetricForm(models.ModelForm):
  class Meta:
model = Metric

>>> mf = MetricForm()
>>> mf.fields['productivity']


Any suggestion as to how to design this right?

Using the test client to verify form fields content

2008-12-17 Thread sagi s

I'd like to use the test client to verify that when there's an error
in a form field, the input field in the
response is populated with the original input.

So I'd like to do something like:

iteration = 'bad data'
response = self.client.post('/metrics/add/', {
'iteration' : iteration,
   ... }
...
self.failUnlessEqual(response.context[0]['form'].fields
['iteration'].value), 'bad data')

Would be great to know where I can fish this from (the last line in
the above snippet is just for illustration of how I would hope to
access the value)

Django version is 1.0, the form is a ModelForm in case it matters.

Cheers

I guess "magic" is a relative term. I am looking at the forms module
and as far as I can see it is anything but trivial.

I can override the __init__ method but I'm back to the problem of
figuring out what to "poke" at.
In the debugger I see this monstruous and deeply-nested data structure
with a bazillion _meta's all over the place. Not sure where I can

I'm not a novice with Python so half-dozen lines of codes sounds like
something I can deal with. I just need to know what those lines should
say :)

Seems like what I'm trying to accomplish should be bread-and-butter
stuff for Django (tweak a bit the appearance of a ModelForm). Would be
good to have an easy way to do it.

If I ever learn I'm willing to take it upon myself to create a recipe
somewhere.

Thanks for the help here Jim. If you have more hints I'll appreciate

ModelForms customization conundrum

2008-12-16 Thread sagi s

Maybe I'm missing something here but I've been struggling with some
basic forms customization issues.

I'm using ver. 1.0

I have created a simple model (Metric) and a form to go with it,
deriving from django.forms.ModelForm with the model set it the Meta as
per the examples.

Out-of-the-box the form is ugly (understandably so) so I need to
control its appearance, e.g. hook a calendar widget to a date field,
control the size of input fields etc.

This can be done by overriding fields, e.g.:

class MetricForm(ModelForm):
# Override some fields to customize the appearance
iter = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'size':'3'}))
end_date = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs=
{'class':'date-pick', 'size':'10'}))
class Meta:
model = Metric

Now the thing is that for fields I override, I lose the help_text I
have set in the model, I lose the value entered in an input being
echoed back to the user when validation fails, I lose the
verbose_name...

So I'm looking at the data available in the template to try to get my
hands dirty and restore all this manually but can't find how all this
magic works. I'm in the debugger looking at the form passed to the
template via the context and this looks like a mountain I'd rather not
climb (I'll spare you the details of the data structure here).

Suggestion appreciated.

ifequal template tag quirks

2007-09-09 Thread sagi s

I tried to compare user ids in a template almost exactly like the
example in the docs:

{% ifequal user_id copy.checkout.user.id %}

however, it seems like user_id (a context variable I'm passing) is a
string and the other id that comes from the model is a long so the
comparison always fails.

I would use the stringformat filter to convert but this works only for
simple variable statements.

One way around this is to change the django library code to convert
the variables to strings before while comparing:

in 0.96, template/defaulttags.py: IfEqualNode(Node):

if (self.negate and str(val1) != str(val2)) or (not
self.negate and str(val1) == str(val2)):

What can we lose by this?

Any suggestion on how to do this without this hack?

newforms.form_for_model() does not map CharField with choices into SELECT

2007-08-27 Thread sagi s

I am generating a form for a model that contains a CharField with
choices. According to the documentation I expect to see this
translated into a SELECT form field but all I get is a simple TEXT
form field:

models.py:
class Publication(models.Model):
PUBLICATION_TYPES = (
('B',  'Book'),
('P',  'Periodical'),
('D',  'DVD'),
('C',  'CD'),
('O',  'Other'),
)
type = models.CharField(maxlength=1, choices=PUBLICATION_TYPES)
...

>>> from django import newforms as forms
>>> pubform = forms.form_for_model(Publication)
>>> pf = pubform()
>>> pf.as_table()
u'Type:\n...


Any idea?

Django database API - What is it good for?

2007-08-13 Thread sagi s

I've been playing around with Django for a couple of weeks.

I'm finding myself spending most of my type tinkering with the
Database API to try to wrestle the information I need out of my
database.

At this point it looks to me like I have replaced one set of
incantations (SQL) for another (Database API's query languages).

I must be missing the point coz I'm starting the miss SQL...

For example I want to get all the Users belonging to the "Staff" Group
(User and Group are Django models so it's not like I'm laying out my
models poorly).

Is it:

>>> users = User.objects.filter(groups__contains="Staff") ?

Surely not. It is... darn - Can I just use SQL and be done with it?

Sorry if I'm iconoclasting stuff here.

Rails-like Flash in Django

2007-08-10 Thread sagi s

In Rails, flash is a way to display a message in the next page. It is
extremely useful to provide lightweight feedback to user operations.
For examples when the user, say, submits a new article and after
clicking on the "Submit" button, then is redirected to the front page,
you want to let him know that his submission was successful on the
front page.

What you would like to do is something like this:

...views.py
def new_article(request):
  ...
  article.save()
  flash("Your article was saved")
  ...
  HttpRedirect("frontpage")

I have implemented as a context processor:

Step 1:
create a file called session_context_processor.py:
def flash(request):
# Add the flash message from the session and clear it
flash = ""
if 'flash' in request.session:
flash = request.session['flash']
del request.session['flash']
return {'flash': flash}

Step 2:
Add the context processor to settings.py:
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
'django.core.context_processors.auth',
...
'session_context_processor.flash',
)

Step 3:
Add the context to *every* view that renders a template:
e.g. change:
return render_to_response('mytemplate.html', context)
to:
return render_to_response('mytemplate.html', context,
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
Again: do this in every view which should be displaying a flash (I
have it in all views)

Step 4:
Add the flash message to your base template:
...
... {{ flash }}
...

Step 5:
Set the flash whenever desired. Following the example above:
...views.py
def new_article(request):
  ...
  article.save()
  request.session['flash'] = "Your article was saved"
  ...
  HttpRedirect("frontpage")

That's it.

I've seen other pointers on how to do it but this one makes sense to
me.

One thing I want to add is a flash type to help the template format
the flash differently depending on whether it represents an error,
successful operation etc.

Suggestions for improvement are welcome.

Re: Including view in a template

2007-08-01 Thread sagi s

Not clear on what you mean by "more robust views". Can you please
elaborate?

Regarding the term "views", I do mean actually invoking the python
function via the url routing system. I would settle for calling a
regular python function that returns some html snippet but I think the
existing views would just work fine.

Regarding custom template tags, I guess I expect many users to want to
use django this way, so I think that having a "load_view" template
element would be useful. Don't you agree?

Cheers,

Including view in a template

2007-08-01 Thread sagi s

I am trying to find a way to include a view in a template. The view
generates an html snippet based on a DB query + another template. In
pseudocode what I am trying to achieve is:

frontpage_template.html:
{{% include header.html %}}
{{% load /views/list_users %}}
{{% load /views/latest_articles %}}
...

I tried loading a template instead and have that template issue an
Ajax Updater request to a view upon loading but  it seems like an
overkill.

Any suggestions?

Null=True not respected by admin?

2007-07-22 Thread sagi s

I created a table where some of the fields have null=True since it's
okay for them to be empty.
Looking at the schema in mysql this option was correctly translated
into the DB's schema, however when I try to add an entry via the admin
interface I get errors on those fields saying that 'This field is
required'.

Any ideas?
