GSoC Project Idea

Earlier I posted this on as a reply on the query conversation that I had started earlier but then I didn't get any response there so I am reposting this here. I originally wanted to work on aggregates/annotation improvement in GSoC and still wish the same. The issues that I want to consider

Re: Using namedtuple instead of pure tuples

Good tips. Thanks! I'll improve them and post as soon as they're ready. Moreover I was thinking that it might be nice to just modify Django to use namedtuples and see how will that influence execution. The problem is that it might be difficult to create reliable tests. If you think that there

Re: GSoC Project Idea

I want to know whether this will make up a good GSoC project as I am also interested in 'improving the error messages part', therefore I want to make a final choice between the two topics. Awaiting replies and suggestions. Anubhav Joshi -- You received this message because you are subscribed

Re: GSoC Project Idea

As I mentioned in the last thread, I've already made some progress on improving aggregates and annotations. I've submitted this PR for review https://github.com/django/django/pull/2184 and discussion here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/django-developers/8vEAwSwJGMc Again, I'm unsure

Add channels to messages framework

Hi, I don't use messages framework on a base template but have it in my installed apps because I need them on some particular pages. Some third-party apps (django-social-auth for my case) creates messages for itself. When I need to use messages in a single page I can't show all messages to

Feature request: Warn about aggregating over possibly incompatible types

We recently pushed to our production environment a feature that involved summing (with django.db.models.Sum) over CharField entries containing numeric text. It ended up not working correctly since the postgresql SUM function can't handle textual arguments, whereas sqlite's apparently can. A nice

GSoC 2014 proposal [Improving error reporting]

Hi all, I had submitted a proposal earlier also related to aggregation/annotation but since almost major things had been implemented by him, I am thinking to switch to 'improving error reporting'. I am going through the errors mentioned. I have some questions for now. 1.) The two

Re: GSoC 2014 proposal [Improving error reporting]

A starting place for this would be to bring the BetterErrorMessages wiki page up-to-date by removing items that have been fixed or "won't fixed". Then it'll be easier to see what's left and whether or not there is enough to fill 12 weeks. On Monday, February 24, 2014 10:43:04 AM UTC-5, anubhav

Re: GSOC 2014 Project Proposal

After due consideration, I think updating djangobook.com should not be a GSOC project. Why not? First, the book is owned by the authors and Apress, not the Django project. The Django community has no control. This probably runs afoul of some sort of GSOC rule. Second, it's representative of

[GSOC 2014] Project Idea

I am into my last year of graduation and I am currently an intern in WebDevLabs. I have been developing working with Django for the same *Title*: Making an API Wrapper for websites using Django. I have been working on an API wrapper using Django for websites. Many times people don't like to

Re: [GSOC 2014] Project Idea

Hi, I am not really sure what you are trying to propose here; generally a proposal should look something along the lines of https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-developers/CD7OrkJ63zc/VRv2igHJxyIJ -- eg you'll have to do some research on the topic and write up a proper proposal. Cheers,

Re: GSoC 2014 proposal [Improving error reporting]

Also there were many links to those tickets which were closed because either they were "fixed" or they "wontfix". So I have removed those as they were unnecessary on that wiki. 2.) There it says: "Import errors discovered during application loading > during can be masked under certain

Re: [GSoC] Switching to Jinja2 proposal

I've made some benchmarks. The results are: jinja2 empty for 0.028 s jinja2 include1.094 s django empty for 0.435 s django include2.134 s Where "empty for" is an empty loop repeated 50 times: {% for i in range_ %} {% endfor %} And include is a similar template where the loop body

Re: GSoC 2014 proposal [Improving error reporting]

"Now I would like to know whether it would be suitable for GSoC?" Maybe! As these tickets touch many different aspects of Django, I'm guessing you'll need to do quite a bit of research in order to convince us you have the breadth of experience to tackle them all. Some of those tickets also

Re: [GSoC] Switching to Jinja2 proposal

I must admit to being conflicted on this project. I'd love to see the measurements and profiling involved in establishing how much "faster" Jinja2 is, mostly to see where DTL could do with some love... However, I don't believe for most people their templates represent enough of a time cost to

Re: [GSOC 2014] Project Idea

Hi Palash, I agree with Florian. I can't understand what it is you're proposing here. If this is intended as a full proposal, it needs a lot more detail; if this is an exploratory idea before you write a full proposal, you'll need to provide a lot more detail. As it stands, I can't work out what

Issue with save/save_model/clean from admin (django 1.6.3dev)
