Re: Fixtures with deferred / auto-generated primary keys?

Thanks Shawn! That was quick! Meanwhile I just discovered http://farmdev.com/projects/fixture which I have just confirmed works fine for hand-written fixtures with my app, although using python classes as fixtures feels a little odd. Nice that it's cross-platform though, it supports sqlalchemy

Fixtures with deferred / auto-generated primary keys?

It would sometimes be useful to be able to write fixtures that essentially say "I don't care what the PK of this record is, as long as I have a way for other records in this fixture to refer to it." Use case: I'd like a way to pass around useful data sets that people can load into deployments of

If you're using PostGIS, one option might be to call its dumper as a separate process. http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/ch04.html#id2638528 Don't know what tools exist for other spatial databases... On Oct 12, 1:50 am, Evan Bowling wrote: > Hello all! > >     I was

: clone.query.extra_where += ('db_newsitem.id = db_attribute.news_item_id',) the replacement is now: clone = clone.extra(where=('db_newsitem.id = db_attribute.news_item_id',)) Seems to work fine. On Sep 1, 11:41 pm, Paul Winkler <sli...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi folks, > > I'm working on a c

what to do instead of adding to Query.extra_where ?

Hi folks, I'm working on a codebase (a fork of http://code.google.com/p/ebcode/) that is supposed to be run against Django 1.1. It has several lines like this: clone.query.extra_where += ('db_newsitem.id = db_attribute.news_item_id',) That line raises a traceback like this: Traceback (most

Re: How to execute some user defined codes (functions) when Django boot?

Seems to me that "on boot up" doesn't mean anything in a shared- nothing architecture like Django's. For example if you deploy on eg. mod_wsgi. You have no idea how long any particular thread or process is going to live, and no idea how often this "boot" code would get run. But assuming that's

Overriding the JOIN type in contrib.admin's search forms?

Bear with me, I'm a Django novice, still reading docs... I'm trying to build my first app using django admin (release 0.96), because it's a good match to the requirements (a quick and simple CRUD application). I found a thread from last year
