Re: how to scale (was: how to do something at startup)
Check out: http://ant.apache.org/ These types of deployment & initialization tasks should be handled by the surrounding environment, not Django itself.

QuerySet.extra() and bind variables
I'm trying to write a custom QuerySet, but I'm a bit confused about
how to properly use the method extra(). From my understanding,
extra() accepts both "select" and "where" arguments, both of which can
contain bind variables. You then pass the appropriate bind variable
values to the "param" argument.
This method seems like it will fall apart if two QuerySets are chained
together, both of which pass "select" and "where" arguments to extra.
For example, wouldn't the following cause an issue:
class FooQuerySet:
def query1(self):
self.extra(select = {'something': "item * %s"}, where = "item
< %s", params = (3, 5))
def query2(self):
self.extra(select = {'something_else': "item / %s"}, where =
"item > %s", params = (3, 5))
model.custom_manager.all().query1().query2()
In this example, the two select statements will appear at the
beginning of the query, and therefore bind to the first two
parameters. However, due to the order in which the bind parameters
are passed to extra(), the second bind parameter should actually
belong to the "where" statement of query1. Is this simply an
unsupported method of using extra? Is there a better alternative?
The only thing I can think of is to do the quoting myself, or write
the raw sql myself, in which case the query set can't be chained.
Both of these options seem less than idea.

I'm a django newbie myself and never tried how to handle AJAX with it. I made something similar in a PHP app, but that uses some proprietary framework and Smarty templating with custom plugins, so it would be no help if I'd show you the code. Basically you need - a simple JS requester/handler that you can bind to an onChange event - views that deliver your selections as JSON or whatever I like the jQuery library, but there are a lot of useful JS libraries, don't know yet which fits best with django.

I don't know about this particular problem, but I've been working on a way to plug different file storage mechanisms into Django easily, and S3 is high on my list. I have a backend written for it, but I don't use S3 so I haven't tested it yet, and the file storage code hasn't landed in trunk anyway. I'm only saying all this to let you know that I'll be keeping an eye on this discussion, and there may be a much easier way to do all this in the near future. I don't know if my code will have the same problem as yours though, so it's still best to sort out what you're dealing with in the mean time. -Gul --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Custom View for a file upload
the thing is that i am trying to update this site for a previous
developer and he created a base template that extends to all the
pages in the site, so i assume that he used those functions and when
clicking around the site and seeing his other views,
all he did was put at login required, and when i log into the site i
can click around all the pages except the one i made and it
keeps me logged in, so i dont understand y it doesnt work for my new
view and template.

Re: Linking dropdowns using newforms
@ Hraban - Thank you for your reply. Yes, I want to display up to four columns. The content of one column depend on the selection in the previous column (exept for the first one). Column 1: Display a list of choices - (eg Systematic, Collection, Growthplace, Heritage). Column 2: Display a filtered result of PropertyValueCombo instances with the selected value from Column 1. Column 3: Display a filtered result of PropertyValueCombo instances with the selected value from Column 2. Column 4: Display a filtered result of PropertyValueCombo instances with the selected value from Column 3. I want the result from the first column to still be displayed while the value in the second column get selected, and that the result from the first and second column is displayed while the value in the third column get selected etc. The selected value in the last column (Column 4) will then be used to filter out the Individual that correspond to that selected value. Is it possible to use two or more forms at the same time? And is it possible to desplay the selected values from one form while the next form doesn't have a selected value yet. How does this work with request/response? My experience with JavaScript is seriously limited. Therefore do you or does anybody else have any pointers where to start with JavaScript?

If that's true, then the problem isn't with this bulk_reg() function -
presumably it isn't running if you aren't logged in, right? Are you
using the suggested methods for loggin a user in (

Based on the name and the examples shown, it's related to the one-to-many relation between the Choice and Poll models. To avoid having to put in annotations on both models, the reverse name is auto-generated.

Custom View for a file upload
Hey,
I've posted a few times about saving files through the admin and all
the problems its caused, but i figured out that the save method i
tried to write was screwing it all up by not completing due to the
error in opening the file. But since this is occuring it still is
screwing up what i went out to do. So i am curious if this can be done
in the view instead of the save method.
I can get the file to save to the system through the admin interface,
but what i cant seem to do is create a view that will save the file.
the model has user and file fields and i want the view to be
@login_required. What i have tried doesnt seem to follow with the
login, meaning in the templates, which extends a base template that
controls the login, when i connect to the pages that should handle the
upload, the person is no longer logged in. and when i try the upload i
dont get any errors, but the file is not saved to the file system or
registered in the admin, so if anyone has any pointers or code it
would be a great help. this is the view i have:
@login_required
def bulk_reg(request):
"""Add large numbers of registrations by uploading a file"""
manipulator = FileManipulator()
data_domain = get_object_or_404(DataDomain, user=request.user.id)
new_data = {}
errors = {}
if request.POST:
new_data = request.POST.copy()
new_data.update(request.FILES)
errors = manipulator.get_validation_errors(new_data)
if not errors:
manipulator.do_html2python(new_data)
fi = BulkDataRegFile(user = request.user.id,
domain = data_domain,
bulk = new_data['bulk'],)
fi.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/provider/')
form = forms.FormWrapper(manipulator, new_data, errors)
return render_to_response('provider/dataset/bulkreg.dht',
{'form': form},)
the file manipulator is a custom manipulator that only includes the
fileuploadfield and is_required is true.
So i am hoping to get this to work and maybe open the file from the
view and then parse it for more information if that would work. Any
suggestions or code would be greatly appreciated.

Re: confused over using ORM in view/template
So my question was how do I do ORM in a view ?? Where is "choice_set" coming from ?? I'm just looking for some very practical answers so I can get something working - and if I'm a fairly bright guy and can't figure it out, obviously there's some improvement required - and maybe I will contribute some documentation if I can figure some things out - or maybe I just say the heck with Django attitudes and go back to Rails. I'm losing productivity fast here.

IOError from HttpResponse(somefile) -- via S3 storage
So I'm keeping uploaded files in an S3 bucket. For private documents,
their S3 permissions are set to private. So my plan has been that
Django will check if a user is authenticated, and if so, pull the
document from S3 and send it to the client. I'm using the boto S3
library to do the actuall interactions with S3 (that's what all the
get_key stuff is based on below). This functions are:
@login_required
def priv_document(request, itemid):
from myapp.media.models import Document
import mimetypes
d = get_object_or_404(Document, pk=itemid)
f = get_from_s3(d.file_key)
mtype = mimetypes.guess_type(d.file_key)
resp = HttpResponse(f, mimetype=mtype[0])
resp['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=%s' %
d.file_key.split('/')[-1]
return resp
def get_from_s3(skey):
import tempfile
k = get_key()
k.key = skey
f = tempfile.TemporaryFile(mode="wb")
k.get_contents_to_file(f)
f.seek(0)
return f
However, I'm getting a corrupted file. When I did `diff origfile.pdf
downloadedfile.pdf` I found the following error inserted into the
file:

I thought I had found a discussion that linked this error to threading

how to resolve this would be appreciated...

Re: Error message when viewing admin? (ViewDoesNotExist at /admin/)
Did you have a view named "startsess" that you subsequently deleted?
Admin is looking for it but not finding it. You may need to remove it
from django_content_type. Try dropping that table from your database
and running python manage.py syncdb.

If you don't want to use two forms, you must use JavaScript (with or without AJAX) to change the values after the change. Either you place different sets of options in hidden selects and show one of them depending on the selection, or you must send an AJAX request to a django view that provides the needed values.

Re: django database setup problem
You're on the right track - missing the MySQL python libraries. It looks like Python is also missing the zlib libraries... not sure which OS you're using, but there's probably an "apt-get install ..." or "rpm -Uvh ..." command that will get you the MySQL Python libraries that you need.

Adding extra info to HttpResponseRedirect
I have a view which receives a list of items in my app to be deleted. After the deletion, I need to return a page containing the same origin page plus a message like "the items (items here) have been successfully deleted". So, after doing all the required stuff in the view, if I want to avoid the typical browser scenario where the user "accidentally" re-submits the POST information hitting the "reload" button (on that case the view would return an error because the items have been already deleted in the previous submit) I need to do an http redirect to an intermediate view. I am trying to use HttpResponseRedirect but I cannot figure out how to do this in a right way: If I use GET as a container for the items with the redirect call, the items will appear as part of the URL in the browser, this looks ugly to me I don't know how to add POST info in a Danjo-way to the HttpResponseRedirect, guess it's not possible unless I write the POST manually in the HttpResposeRedirect header/body (no!). Anyway, using POST to hide information also looks ugly to me. So I may try to pass the Django request object to hold all the information, that would be great, but how? thanks in advance, hector --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Linking dropdowns using newforms
Hi,
I am wondering if it's possible to link dropdowns using newforms. I
want to use the selected value in the first dropdown as the
filtervalue for the next dropdown etc.
My model looks something like this:
///
models.py
class Property(models.Model):
""" Contains a list of properties that can be reused in several
property/value combinations. Category is the "top" property."""
property_name = models.CharField()
class PropertyValueCombo(models.Model):
""" Combines property with a value in a Combo that are the
buildingblocks that makes up the Individuals."""
property_name = models.ForeignKey(Property)
value_word = models.CharField(null = True, blank = True)
value_text = models.TextField(null = True, blank = True)
value_date = models.DateField(null = True, blank = True)
parent_combo = models.ForeignKey('self', null = True, blank = True,
related_name = 'parent_combo_child_set')
hybrid_parent_combo = models.ForeignKey('self', null = True, blank =
True, related_name = 'hybrid_parent_combo_child_set')
def __unicode__(self):
return '%s %s %s' % (self.value_word, self.value_text,
self.value_date)
class Individual(models.Model):
""" These objects represent the individual plants and animals that
are registered in the database."""
combo = models.ManyToManyField(PropertyValueCombo, filter_interface =
models.HORIZONTAL)
parent_individual = models.ForeignKey('self', null = True, blank =
True, related_name = 'parent_individual_child_set')
index_id = str(id)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.index_id
views.py
class FirstColumnForm(forms.Form):
alla_combo = PropertyValueCombo.objects.all()
val = []
for instance in alla_combo:
test=unicode(instance.property_name)
if test=='Category':
val.append(instance.value_word)
category = forms.MultipleChoiceField(choices=[(c, c) for c in val])
def first_column(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
kolumn_1 = FirstColumnForm(request.POST)
selected_category = request.POST['category']
return render_to_response('search.html',{'kolumn_1':kolumn_1,
'selected_category':selected_category})
else:
kolumn_1 = FirstColumnForm()
return render_to_response('search.html', {'kolumn_1':kolumn_1})
///
The form produces a MultipleChoiceField (MCF) and the user is able to
select a value. The value is then presented next to the first MCF. The
next step would be to use the selected value as the filtervalue for
the second column, but this is where I've run into trubble.
I've tried to create a second form class for the second column, but I
then got an error saying that the form class had unknown parameters.
Since the class is validated before any value is selected ie the
selected parameter is unknown.
I also have a second problem, which is that my first column will
display the wrong set of data when the request change. Anybody have a
better suggestion how I should go about displaying the data? This
might to a great extent be connected to the first problem...
I have been looking like crazy for a solution, but I still don't know
how to proceed. I would greatly appreciate if anybody could give me a
hint in the right direction (if there is one...)
Thanks in advance.
Emma

But remember that Django is expected to be generic and broadly usable, which means that actually the decorators would have to support, say, people who are sharding and want to have this view write to that shard, and that view read from another, etc., etc., which means that your decorator scheme basically comes down, in the end, to hard-coding database or cluster or shard names alongside each view.

You mean no projects using MySQL Replication, which is very, very, VERY far from "no big projects" -- there are plenty of big projects using Django, they're just using smarter DB setups.

The only thing that is really guaranteed to be loaded sufficiently early in the process is the settings module (along with the __init__.py file in the directory containing settings.py). So one solution is to place the hook loading in there. Now, it's possible/probable you don't want to do anything really complicated in settings.py, particularly if what you want to do would rely upon the settings. Since that module is still being imported when your code is executed, you have to be a little careful. For simple things, particularly code that doesn't rely on settings, you're fine: just install your method immediately. For more complex cases, install an initial method that works out whether it has been called before or not and replaces itself with the real method on the first call (registers the "real handler" and deregisters itself, for example). Another solution is to subclass the handler for the types of request you are doing (modpython or wsgi) and install your hooks as part of the request processing in the subclass. Neither of these solutions would work if you were wanting to do this as a third-party app, since both intrude on the setup of the user. However, in this case, there is no reliable way to ensure your code is run sufficiently early. There might be an argument for putting a hook in all the handlers (and the interactive shell setup in django-admin.py) to call a Python function that you specify in your settings file. That would allow use to do any pre-runtime setup in a portable fashion. If there's not some obvious reason why this is a bad idea, you might like to open a ticket for this.

Effective use of class_prepared signal
Hello all, I'm trying to make use of the class_prepared signal to add some functionality to all models. The problem I'm facing is how to properly register my listener. I need to register the listener before any models are prepared, but I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this. Right now I have it registered in __init__.py in my application, and put that application first in my settings module. This works in the shell because of a work-around for #1796 that forces loading of all models through get_models (a work-around which, perhaps, should be removed since #1796 was fixed). This work-around isn't present in the mod_python or wsgi handlers, so this approach doesn't work for non-interactive (shell) sessions. Any assistance/ideas would be appreciated.

Re: keeping track of online users
So, here is my version, using the cache backend:
from datetime import timedelta, datetime
from django.core.cache import cache
from django.contrib.sites.models import Site
ONLINE_MINUTES = 10
CACHE_KEY = '%s_online_user_ids' % Site.objects.get_current().domain
_last_purged = datetime.now()
def get_online_user_ids():
user_dict = cache.get(CACHE_KEY)
return hasattr(user_dict, 'keys') and user_dict.keys() or []
class OnlineUsers(object):
def process_request(self, request):
if request.user.is_anonymous():
return
user_dict = cache.get(CACHE_KEY)
if not user_dict:
# initialization
user_dict = {}
now = datetime.now()
user_dict[request.user.id] = now
# purge
global _last_purged
if _last_purged + timedelta(minutes=ONLINE_MINUTES) < now:
purge_older_than = now - timedelta(minutes=ONLINE_MINUTES)
for user_id, last_seen in user_dict.items():
if last_seen < purge_older_than:
del(user_dict[user_id])
_last_purged = now
cache.set(CACHE_KEY, user_dict, 60*60*24)
This stores a dictionary in the form: {user_id: last_seen_time, ...}
in the cache and updates the cache once for every request by an
authenticated user.
An alternative would be to store a structure like Jeremy's,
{minute_seen: set(user_id, ...), ...} which I think will result in
nearly the same amount of cache hits on average.
I would like to hear your comments.

Re: python script
In http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5534 there is a howto for

But it's only when the script is in the root project directory.
What happens if we want the script in other location? What line we

how to apply model method to Queryset in the most efficient way?
hi all I have a model like this (I intentionally replaced the details by dots): class Family(...): name = ... # field contains non-unique values age = ... # model method to get children, here operations with another model are involved def getChildren(): return ... when I prepare data for custom view, I need to process like like this: def old(request): a = Family.objects.filter(age__gt=50) # then I need to apply getChildren() to all members of queryset a # the most the easiest way is b = [m.getChildren() for m in a] # then I pass it to template the questions are: 1. is it efficient way? 2. is it better for performance to send queryset to template? it does it matter? 3. if "yes" to 2nd question, how to form such queryset, taking into account need to execute model method? 4. if b contain non-unique values and I want to use .distinct() method, how to create a queryset instead of list? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Not directly, no. The date filter is locale-aware and designed for
created human readable strings.
You would need to write your own filter that does the same thing but
after first calling django.utils.translation.deactivate() (or maybe call
activate('en') so that the result isn't dependent on your settings
file). Remember to retrieve the current locale with get_language() first
and set it back afterwards or you may get some weird side-effects.

fieldsets in newforms

but I am not sure of how to integrate this into my custom forms.
Is the following possible / are there plans for doing something like
the following?
{{ form.as_table }}
resulting html along the lines of:
or even
{{ form.fieldset1.as_table }}
{{ form.fieldset2.as_table }}

Well, "thread-safe" is a confusing term for something like this, but you're right that it has to do with the operating environment. I had similar problems with an application of mine, when I used a module-level dictionary to store a cache that would be updated. What I ended up having to do is using Django's cache framework, which will work fine in multi-process setups, as long as you don't use the "simple" or "local" cache backends. Don't let the local backend's claim of being multi-process thread-safe fool you. What that means is that multiple threads and processes won't interact with each other, which is the usual definition of the term. But since you actually do want multiple threads and processes to share that information, its multi-process/thread-safety is actually a problem. That's why I said it's a confusing term for this situation. If you use the file, db or memcached backends, you should be fine. -Gul --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Generic/Views implementation decision
Thanks for the answer Lemuel :)
I added a get_images method in the (example) Toy model, which returns
a list of the pictures related to it. Which basically just wraps
things up:
def get_images(self):
images = self.toypicture_set.all()
return images
Doing a select_related, sounds more efficient though, I'll try it out.

Hi, In this thread, closed due to inactivity: http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/6f5f759d3fd4318a/ Jeremy Dunck offers a resource friendly way to keep track of online users (http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/attach/ c2f60227b0f2d040/OnlineUsers.py?part=2) I used it for some time and observed some inconsistencies. I think this is because the code is not thread-safe. Do you know a thread safe way of applying this approach?

fixtures
Hi...
My yaml file is
- fields: {time: '0:00'}
model: utils.Hour
pk: 01
- fields: {time: '0:30'}
model: utils.Hour
pk: 02
- fields: {time: '1:00'}
model: utils.Hour
pk: 03
The model for this is
from django.db import models
class Hour(models.Model):
time=models.TimeField(max_length=10)
class Admin:
pass
def __str__(self):
return "%s" % self.time
from the site admin, when trying to access Hours, this gives me an
error
ValueError at /admin/utils/hour/
need more than 2 values to unpack
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://localhost:8000/admin/utils/hour/
Exception Type: ValueError
Exception Value: need more than 2 values to unpack
Exception Location: D:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\django\db\backends
\util.py in typecast_time, line 63

Can someone please help?

Re: Custom validation for models in admin
Hi Mike, I have the same problem with my model. (Link below) Reading your "points to a .validate() on the model" raises the following question.

Re: Please help with extra validation in admin
Addition: > This is my model and I use a custom save to prevent the creation of a > category with a parent_id which is the same a the current_id (child of > itself) When an error occurs an ugly error message apears so I tried to create a custom validator. Custom validator didn't work because of "no object_id to check upon". Creating a Custom manipulator doesn't seem to work in admin. Can someone show me a solution to get the validation done in admin?

Re: trying to make Django work with fastcgi
I actually got fed up, and nearly resolved to switch either frameworks(pylons, turbogears) or webhosts(webfaction, dreamhost). I deleted everything in a fit and started doing some research. I ran across this in a python installation guide: "At this point, every tutorial around the web will tell you to use flup and then there will be pain and hair pulling because you won't understand why it's not working (unless you ask Allan Saddi to check your setup, that is. Thank you Allan!). The solution is to use the supposed to be obsolete fcgi.py script, so let's install it: The problem with flup (as found by Allan itself) is that it takes too long to start and it seems that FastCGI on Dreamhost will wait for a maximum of 3 seconds. fcgi.py instead is simpler (doesn't do thread pooling for example) and therefore faster to start. " What ended up working was simply downloading fcgi.py into my webroot. Not entirely sure why (and I'm ok with that for now), but it works like a dream. I do appreciate your responses regardless. Thank you. And David, you might want to check out http://www2.jeffcroft.com/blog/2006/may/11/django-dreamhost/. It's a tutorial for getting started with Django on Dreamhost, but is excellent and cross-applicable. The only difference is that dreamhost and ASO handle subdomain differently, so where he writes ~/ django.mydomain.com, substitute ~/www/django (which is automatically created for you when you create the django.mydomain.com subdomain in cPanel) On Oct 2, 11:19 pm, "Horst Gutmann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Have you already tried it with method=prefork instead of method=threaded? > > 2007/10/2, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > > I'm exactly there with you, David.
