Multiple django version on developer machine
Hi all, While I have a number of django apps develop for Django 1.1 ... I also want to use Django 1.2 for my new project. How can I have multiple version of Django in my machine where my apps will be instructed either to use 1.1 or 1.2 Thanks, James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Calling remote API
hi all, It will be my first time to create django app that requires calling remote API. As far as I know django has no built in support for this. I only way I know is URLLIB2, any good library for this purpose, which easily send your request as get this parameters and also easily parse the return results which could be xml or json? thanks, James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

django orm & sqlalchemy
Hi, I have read somewhere else that there is a plan of making sqlalchemy to work with django. My concern is while sqlalchemy is the more complete orm, but it lack validation which is something django's own orm has, am I right?

one model per file
Hi, I am following the official tutorial of django, and found out that several model are define in a single file. I just wonder if we could have one model per file? or can be as flexible as X no of models in file A and Y no of models in file B and so on. If this is allowed, how to we name the files?

regex in url
hi,
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^polls/$', 'mysite.polls.views.index'),
(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/$', 'mysite.polls.views.detail'),
(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/results/$',
'mysite.polls.views.results'),
(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/vote/$', 'mysite.polls.views.vote'),
)
I am very new to django as well as python. how is it that ?P
seems to be ignore by the regex function? I can't see any explanation
in django's documentation. is this something magic or hack my django?
Thanks

Re: regex in url
Yes I am looking for the explanation of ?P syntax, is this something related to python's regex or django's own regex. thanks james On Jul 17, 11:57 am, "Russell Keith-Magee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 7/17/07, james_027 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I am very new to django as well as python. how is it that ?P > > seems to be ignore by the regex function?

Django ORM is very cool.
hi, i just starting to read http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/model-api/ http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/db-api/ I have some experience with other ORM, I think django's orm is really cool. Here are the things that I like that really makes Django's ORM a clean design. manager's concept filter chaining select_related() The most important is it seems to be easy to use the ORM even on existing database. The mapping seems to be easy. Is there any plan to make Django ORM available as a stand alone ORM which can be use in other application development. This could increase django's user can they can use the model with several application interface besides the web interface. cheers, james --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

context processor question
Hi,
As I understand context are data we can use in our templates, and the
purpose of context processor is instead of doing something like
c = Context({
'latest_poll_list': latest_poll_list,
})
or
return render_to_response('polls/index.html', {'latest_poll_list':
latest_poll_list})
the commonly use data will automatically available, do I get it right?
Thanks

Re: django foreignkey
Hi Nathan,
I did manage.py syncdb with the table still not existing. I did
manage.py sqlall myapps when saw that the foreign key was not created.
here is my actual source code.
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User as AdminUser
# Create your models here.
DEPARTMENTS = (
('HRD', 'HRD'),
('ACT', 'Accounting'),
('PUR', 'Purchasing'),
('LOG', 'Logistics'),
('PRO', 'Production'),
('MKG', 'Marketing'),
('EXP', 'Export'),
('ITD', 'IT'),
)
LEVELS = (
('SM', 'Senior Manager'),
('MR', 'Manager'),
('SP', 'Supervisor'),
('ST', 'Staff'),
)
class User(models.Model):
"""KSK Employee accounts to use this application"""
user = models.ForeignKey(AdminUser)
department = models.CharField(maxlength=3, choices=DEPARTMENTS)
level = models.CharField(maxlength=3, choices=LEVELS)
Thanks

login() method conflict
hi,
i've been trying to get started with django and i am stock in this
problem and found out that there's a conflict in login() method. here
is my view code
from django.http import HttpResponse, HttpResponseRedirect
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login
def index(request):
if not request.user.is_authenticated():
return render_to_response('login.htm', {'from':request.path})
return render_to_response('index.htm')
def login(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
user = authenticate(username=request.POST['username'],
password=request.POST['password'])
if user is not None:
if user.is_active:
#return HttpResponse('user authenticated')
fixlogin(request, user)
return HttpResponseRedirect('/main/')
else:
return HttpResponse('user not active')
else:
return HttpResponse('authenticate fail')
return render_to_response('login.htm')
The problem is an error saying login() method accept only one
parameter, where I follow this documentation (http://
www.djangoproject.com/documentation/0.96/authentication/#how-to-log-a-user-in).
After many times of trail and error I thought of changing this import
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login to from
django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login as fixlogin() and use
fixlogin(request, user)
Is this already fix? I am just using 0.96.
Thanks
james

setting up login required pages massly
hi,
is there a stupidly fast way to make select but many pages to required
login first? I am using 0.96 @login_required is cool, but 0.96 doesn't
support LOGIN_URL in the settings.py yet.
currently i am using something like this
if not request.user.is_authenticated():
return render_to_response('login.htm', {'from':request.path})
for each view's function.
thanks

Re: shortcut for assigning values to model?
@canen An example is if your forms are dealing with two or more models wherein form_for_model is for one model only. @nathan I am also new to python, where can I learn more about **kwargs?

foreign key on database not created with models referencing from other application
I am very new to django, I am creating a model with a field of
models.ForeignKey(User) #django.contrib.auth.models import User. When
I look at the database, my table has no foreign key define. Another
example is the django.contrib.admin.models.LogEntry model it has user
= models.ForeignKey(User) which is also from
django.contrib.auth.models.user.
When the relationship is within the same namespace (am I using the
right term, pls correct me) the manage.py syncdb create the tables
without a problem if all the tables are create on the same time, but
if the tables weren't created the same time it also fail to create the
foreign keys.
Where should I look to correct this problem.
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
# Create your models here.
DEPARTMENTS = (
('HRD', 'HRD'),
('ACT', 'Accounting'),
('PUR', 'Purchasing'),
('LOG', 'Logistics'),
('PRO', 'Production'),
('MKG', 'Marketing'),
('EXP', 'Export'),
('ITD', 'IT'),
)
LEVELS = (
('SM', 'Senior Manager'),
('MR', 'Manager'),
('SP', 'Supervisor'),
('ST', 'Staff'),
)
class Profile(models.Model):
"""KSK Employee accounts to use this application""
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
department = models.CharField(maxlength=3, choices=DEPARTMENTS)
level = models.CharField(maxlength=3, choices=LEVELS)
Thanks james

Re: foreign key on database not created with models referencing from other application
Hi, The table was created fine with only a small problem and it's the foreign key. I have my application listed on settings.py, code my model on models.py, then perform manage.py syncdb my_app as I am aware that if the table exist it wont recreate it. I did a number of times of deleting my tables and do manage.py syncdb my_app. As I stated the django_admin_log table should also have foreign key which also doesn't have it since it has a relation to auth_user table. I am doing this in winxp , mysql 5 , python 2.5 , latest mysql driver for python. Hope I've provided enough info.

Re: foreign key on database not created with models referencing from other application
Hi, I dont know what you mean by what_I_have_done? I just follow the django tutorial. the one with poll and choice model. I did every step. and that's my result. However I have discover something this setting INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', ) vs this setting INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', 'django.contrib.admin', ) will produce a different result ... the first setting will have foreign key on the django_admin_log table while the 2nd table dont have the foreign key. I have do this multiple time, changing the settings between the first and the second and the result is constant. do we have ordering in creating models? thanks james On Jul 21, 12:49 pm, "Russell Keith-Magee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 7/21/07, james_027 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > I didn't say that the relation aren't working, I just wondering why > > foreign key wasn't created in my case.

Re: foreign key on database not created with models referencing from other application
hi, in the case of my application here is what i done (I start from scratch): 1. django-admin.py startproject ksk 2. django-admin.py startapp main 3. edit the settings.py file: database engine, name, user, password, password, and then add the ksk.main in the installed_apps INSTALLED_APPS = ( 'ksk.main', 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.sites', ) 4. cd into the main directory and edit the models.py here is the ksk.main application models.py from django.db import models from django.contrib.admin.models import User # Create your models here. class Profile(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User) department = models.CharField(maxlength=20) level = models.CharField(maxlength=3) class CellUsage(models.Model): profile = models.ForeignKey(Profile) minutes = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField() 5. then i run python manage.py syncdb the result is ... in my cellusage table there is no foreign key created. but in the profile table there is a foreign created. 6. I delete all the tables again. I re order the items in the INSTALLED_APPS settings. from my step no. 3 instead of putting ksk.main in the last I put it in the first, then run manage.py syncdb the result is no foreign key on cellusage table and in the profile table also ... When I say I follow the django official I was referring to the apps I created with the tutorial. That results to no foreign key created on the choice table. Please help me, I am really desperate to know where did I go wrong. Why is it a foreign key can't be created with a simple relationship. Why is it that the order of application in the INSTALLED_APPS has effect when performing manage.py syncdb? iam using django .96, my python mysql driver is the latest version., i am doing this on windows env.

Re: foreign key on database not created with models referencing from other application
Hi russ, nice to hear from you again... As of now I am only saying that no foreign key is created by just checking the database tables itself, I haven't perform any django query. doing the describe main_profile and main_cellusage I got the same results ... but for me the MUL value on Key column doesn't represent a foreign key. here's the dll description from mysql manager lite CREATE TABLE `main_profile` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL, `department` varchar(20) NOT NULL, `level` varchar(3) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `main_profile_user_id` (`user_id`), CONSTRAINT `user_id_refs_id_4af9714f` FOREIGN KEY (`user_id`) REFERENCES `auth_user` (`id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8; CREATE TABLE `main_cellusage` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `profile_id` int(11) NOT NULL, `minutes` smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `main_cellusage_profile_id` (`profile_id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8; the profile table's dell has constraint clause in it, while the cellusage table has no constraint clause only key clause is only tells that it is index.

learning django testing
hi, Here's another newbie stupid question ... I've heard testing everywhere from software development world, and the testing I know is to run the application I am developing and do all the possibilities that I user might do to make sure that the application behaves how it should be. I am studying this nice tutorial http://toys.jacobian.org/presentations/2007/oscon/tutorial/ And the first topic is testing. I don't have any idea what is the testing all about. Is testing means writing a program that will simulate the usage of an application? Could someone point me to a good short introduction about testing that is somehow gear towards to django or python?

middleware or context_processors
Hi all,
As I am trying to extend the django user model not using the
auth_profile
I have model like this
class Profile(models.Model):
"""KSK Employee accounts to use this application"""
user = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)
department = models.CharField(maxlength=3,
choices=DEPARTMENT_LIST)
level = models.CharField(maxlength=3, choices=LEVEL_LIST)
class Admin:
pass
def _get_username(self):
return self.user.username
username = property(fget=_get_username)
In order to make use of the profile model as easy as the django user
model
I can make a middleware like this
from ksk.main.models import Profile
class ProfileMiddleware(object):
"""Use to synchronize django user and ksk profile"""
def process_request(self, request):
if request.user.is_authenticated():
request.profile = Profile.objects.get(user = request.user)
else:
request.profile = None
and with context_processors like this
def profile(request):
return {'profile': request.profile}
or just use only context_processors like this
from ksk.main.models import Profile
def profile(request):
if request.user.is_authenticated():
profile = Profile.objects.get(user = request.user)
else:
profile = None
return {
'profile': profile,
}
both of them works, but I don't have any idea which is better in terms
of design? security? performance?
Thanks
james

Although this problem can be solve with just renaming some of the

a problem.

retaining the data on validation error using newforms
Hi,
this is how I am using the newforms.
My Form
class NewEmployeeForm(forms.Form):
contract_from = forms.DateField()
contract_to = forms.DateField()
position = forms.CharField(max_length=20)
My View
def create_employee(request):
f = None
if request.method == 'POST':
f = NewEmployeeForm(request.POST)
if f.is_valid():
return HttpResponse('valid')
return render_to_response('create_employee.htm', {'form':f})
My Template
Contract from:
{{form.contract_from.errors}}
Contract to:
{{form.contract_to.errors}}
Position:
{{form.position.errors}}
my problem is after the validation error, I would like to populate the
form with the posted data. One solution is to change my view to
def create_employee(request):
if request.method == 'GET':
f = NewEmployeeForm()
if request.method == 'POST':
f = NewEmployeeForm(request.POST)
if f.is_valid():
return HttpResponse('valid')
return render_to_response('create_employee.htm', {'form':f})
and my template to
{{form.contract_from.label}}
{{form.contract_from}}
{{form.contract_from.errors}}
{{form.contract_to.label}}
{{form.contract_to}}
{{form.contract_to.errors}}
{{form.position.label}}
{{form.position}}
{{form.position.errors}}
but my problem here is that how can I apply my css if I can't change
the class attribute of label and input tag generated by the newforms?
any ideas?

Re: overiding the clean method on newforms
Hi, > > http://django-registration.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/registration/form... > Thanks Nathaniel, I am looking for over riding the clean() instead of clean_(). After hours of experiments. I would like to confirm if my learnings are correct. in over riding the clean() method, I have to first check if the attribute I want to check on is available on the cleaned_data dictionary, if not I will not proceed to my validation, if yes then proceed to my custom validation. All the Validation I raise in the clean() method will be recorded on the _errors dictionary?

thanks doug, this is what I did, but I am not comfortable with it.
those two button do different things, and if they're under one method
on the views it could be ugly, what if I have 4 or 5 submit buttons?
any other sugguestions?

weird django orm behavior
Hi,
I have this models ...
class Employee(models.Model):
emplyoee_contract = models.ForeignKey('EmployeeContract',
null=True, related_name='contracted_employee')
employee_assignment = models.ForeignKey('EmployeeAssignment',
null=True, related_name='assigned_employee')
class EmployeeAssignment(models.Model):
employee = models.ForeignKey(Employee)
assignment_from = models.DateField()
assignment_to = models.DateField()
area = models.CharField(maxlength=3, choices=AREA_LIST)
position = models.CharField(maxlength=20)
edit_by = models.ForeignKey(Profile, null=True)
class EmployeeContract(models.Model):
employee = models.ForeignKey(Employee)
contract_to = models.DateField()
contract_from = models.DateField()
notes = models.CharField(blank=True, maxlength=200)
status = models.CharField(maxlength=3,
choices=EMPLOYEE_CONTRACT_STATUS_LIST)
edit_by = models.ForeignKey(Profile, null=True)
and I have something like this in my view
e = Employee()
for key in f.cleaned_data.keys():
e.__setattr__(key, f.cleaned_data[key])
e.save()
c = EmployeeContract()
for key in f.cleaned_data.keys():
c.__setattr__(key, f.cleaned_data[key])
c.employee = e
c.status = 'ACT'
c.save()
a = EmployeeAssignment()
for key in f.cleaned_data.keys():
a.__setattr__(key,
f.cleaned_data[key])
a.employee = e
a.assignment_from = c.contract_from
a.assignment_to = c.contract_to
a.save()
e.employee_assignment = a
e.employee_contract = c
e.save()
all the data are valid, the problem here is that the
employee.employee_contract is not get assign. everything got save
successfully. here is the sql django's running
{'time': '0.015', 'sql': u'INSERT INTO `manning_employee`

SET
`lastname`=Dy,`firstname`=Willie,`middlename`=,`gender`=M,`birthday`=1977-02-18,`contact_no`=,`address`=Laguna,`notes`=,`pay_by`=HRR,`hour_rate`=34.37,`allowance`=50.00,`account_no`=,`sss`=,`phil_health`=,`pag_ibig`=,`emplyoee_contract_id`=None,`employee_assignment_id`=10
WHERE `id`=13'}]
as you can see the last update statement has employee_contract_id =
None ... which I don't know what make it happen?
anything wrong with my models or views?
Thanks

using chaining filter() and select_related()
hi, I am doing something like this params = request.GET['name'].split() employees = Employee.objects.all().select_related() for p in params: employees = employees.filter(Q(firstname = p) | Q(lastname = p)) the query is fine but when I look at the connection.queries django still is not using join selects ...

Is this not allowed select_related()
hi,
I have this model which doesn't work when using select_related(). What
happen is django seems to be in a infinite loop.
class Employee(models.Model):
employee_contract = models.ForeignKey('EmployeeContract',
related_name='contracted_employee')
employee_assignment = models.ForeignKey('EmployeeAssignment',
related_name='assigned_employee')
class EmployeeAssignment(models.Model):
employee = models.ForeignKey(Employee)
assignment_from = models.DateField()
assignment_to = models.DateField()
area = models.CharField(maxlength=3, choices=AREA_LIST)
position = models.CharField(maxlength=20)
edit_by = models.ForeignKey(Profile, null=True)
class EmployeeContract(models.Model):
employee = models.ForeignKey(Employee)
contract_to = models.DateField()
contract_from = models.DateField()
notes = models.CharField(blank=True, maxlength=200)
status = models.CharField(maxlength=3,
choices=EMPLOYEE_CONTRACT_STATUS_LIST)
edit_by = models.ForeignKey(Profile, null=True)
Thanks

context vs request context
Hi, While I was studying the list generic view. I ask myself why does the django generic view list uses request context to store the pagination related info instead of a regular context. If I understand it right, using the request context could provide additional info from the context processor to the template, unlike the request context will which only the the info you pass in from the view?

getting pagination tag to work
hi, I am trying to do this http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/PaginatorTag I have two apps in my projects which are main and manning. I put the pagination tag code in the main/templatetags/extra_tags.py file. And I am trying to use the tag from a template in manning/templates/ results.htm. But I am getting this error "TemplateDoesNotExist at / manning/search_employee/ paginator.htm". I place the paginator.htm in main/templates folder. how do I correct this? thanks james --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

pagination for search result ...
hi,
I am trying to put a page list for a search result. So far here's what
I've try by using the django.views.generic.list_detail.object_list and
the pagination tag (http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/PaginatorTag)
and later found out that it won't meet my needs.
def search_employee(request):
if not request.GET:
return render_to_response('search_employee.htm')
else:
params = request.GET['name'].split()
employees = Employee.objects.all()
for p in params:
employees = employees.filter(Q(firstname = p) | Q(lastname
= p))
return object_list(request, employees, paginate_by=3,
template_name='search_employee_result.htm',
template_object_name='employee')
This won't work because when you try to select other page the
query_set from previous is lost ... I am thinking off passing the
request.GET to the object_list's extra_context argument, then edit the
pagination tag that will provide link constrcuted from the
extra_context?
Or is there a better solution or existing solution?
Thanks
james

context processors execution
hi, Are the context processors executed only when you pass a request context from view to template? The documentation mentions that a requestcontext could accept an optional argument which is a context processor, is it the same as putting the context processor in the context processor settings but only gets executed when as requested by the requestcontext?

ModelChoiceField on newforms
hi, while learning and experimenting with forms ... one should use ModelChoiceField in order to let newforms bind the value on a foreignkey field of a model. My concern is that in the real world, you usually don't use to let the user chose the value to be filled especially if the list of choices is very very large. While I have success with ModelChoiceField(Item.object.all(), widget=TextInput), providing a for entering a value which could come from a selected record thru searching, my concerned/question is ... 1. Does the Item.objects.all() get executed while rendering the ? (I hope not since the widget is not the ) 2. Does the Item.objects.all() get executed when in the process of assignment. example class InvoiceItem(models.Model): qty = models.PositiveInteger() item = models.ForeignKey(Item) class InvoiceItemForm(forms.Form): qty = forms.IntegerField() item = models.ModelChoiceField(Item.objects.all(), widget=TextInput) f = InvoiceItemForm(requst.POST) if f.is_valid(): ii = InvoiceItem(**f.cleaned_data) ii.save() (I hope during the assignment ii.item = f.item, the Item.objects.all() is not executed but instead it will do something like item.objects.all().filter(id="value from the text input"). If this is the case then I have no problem with this approach but if not could some share their solution?)
