Re: pymssql: Problem with Unicode string

[Orgil]

sorry,
let me correct some row:
---
import pymssql
conn = pymssql.connect(host='testserver', user='sa',
password='sa', database='testdb', as_dict=True)
crms = conn.cursor()
crms.execute('SELECT cc_Name FROM tblUsers')
for line in crms.fetchall():
print 'cc_Name:', line['cc_Name']
break
crms.close()
---
I guess that the returned data from crms.execute() is non unicode
data!!!
If that is case, how to get unicode data!!!
Things getting even worse as time goes by.

please give me your hand!

Orgil

pymssql: Problem with Unicode string

[Orgil]

Hello!
I am using pymssql-1.9.908. And I have MSSQL2008 database server.
I ran following code from python 2.6:
---
import pymssql
conn = pymssql.connect(host='testserver', user='sa',
password='sa', database='testdb', as_dict=True)
crms = conn.cursor()
crms.execute('SELECT cc_Name FROM tblUsers')
for line in crms.fetchall():
print 'cc_Name:', self.unicodify(line['cc_Name'])
break
crms.close()
---
the result is-> cc_Name: ?, ???
But the actual data is "Аймаг, хот" and I expect that the output would
be "cc_Name: Аймаг, хот".

Here is my question:
How to get Unicode data from MSSQL database using pymssql library?

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated!
regards,
Orgil.D

Facebook session problems.

[CrabbyPete]

I managed to log into facebook using the graph api, I store the FB id
and tie it to a User, like this

class FacebookUser(models.Model):
user= models.ForeignKey(User)
fb_uid  = models.CharField( max_length=100, blank = True,
unique = True )
access_token= models.CharField( max_length=100, blank = True,
null   = True )

def __unicode__(self):
if self.user.username == u'':
return str(self.pk)
return self.user.username

after I get the user I do the following:
user = auth.authenticate(username=user.username, password=password)
if user is not None and user.is_active:
auth.login(request, user)

I log in and all is good except I loose the session if I go to another
web site and come back.

Any help or advice greatly appreciated.

Re: Django cache created in one function not available to another?

If the OP is using Django 1.2.3, this probably isn't #15179 -- Jeff
reports that if he rolls back to before the recent key prefixing
changes, his problem doesn't exist. Those changes don't exist on the
1.2.X branch.

The fundamental calls to caching are correct usage, but your usage is
missing something important -- caches aren't guaranteed to return a
value. Cache values expire, so your code *must* allow for the case
where the cache returns nothing.

That said, if you're pushing a value into the cache, and you're not
getting the value coming out on the fetch, there could be a couple of
causes:

 * If memcached isn't running (or nor running correctly, or not
running on the right port, or not running on a port that is allowing
connections, etc), caching will fail, returning empty results.

 * If the default timeout for the cache is short, the cache may be
expiring before the fetch operation is performed.

We'd need to see your cache settings to confirm the second issue; the
first issue is something you'll have to investigate yourself.

The easiest way to test this is to fire up a python shell prompt and
try using the cache programatically.

You might also want to try using a different cache backend -- that
will allow you to work out if the problem is your usage of caching, or
your memcache configuration.

What exactly do you mean by "visually cut off code"? Can you give a

Re: Google maps

[Sam Walters]

Hi

This also depends how server-side oriented you want this to be?

Its good to learn geodjango. (that way if your calculation areas of
polygons, loading layers you can just make this python+server side
instead of writing it in javascript.
Also with lots of ajax related request/response designs some people
look at using dajax or something like that to reduce development time.

Re: Django Admin - list_display doesn't follow FK links?

[Mathieu Möller]

Hey Victor,

-
I changed my subscription to my gmail-account because I'm not sure if my 
email went trough. Here is it again.

-

I do the following to get data out of a related table/model:

Of course you could access your other model via __unicode__...
Or, simply write a function for your model and use a callback in your
list_display:

Here an easy "quick and dirty" example:

class othermodel(models.Model)
importantfield=models.CharField()

class mymodel(models.Model)
value = models.CharField()
FK_othermodel= models.Foreignkey(othermodel)

def get_importantfield(self):
return self.FK_othermodel.importantfield

In your admin.py call

MymodelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin)
list_display=['get_importantfield']

Hope it helps!

contenttypes and dumpdata options

hello,
What's the current recommended way to deal with contenttypes when you
move a db using dumpdata? I know about excluding it, but I read
something about using the ---natural option with the dump command
would work as well. Does this work when including contenttypes in the
dump? Which is the preferred method? thanks.

Re: Django Template CSS Load Path

[octopusgrabbus]

Interestingly, I added

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
'django.core.context_processors.request',
'django.core.context_processors.media',
)

to my settings.py and got this error.

Put 'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth' in your
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS setting in order to use the admin
application.

My vhosts log file shows the css is being fetched. There are no
errors. But I am not seeing the page color change to light blue.

query did not work

[gintare]

would like to post one bug, since i was sitting 4h on it

For some reasons query did not work.
In the end appeared that it depends on how urls.py are formulated:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
   (r'^searchbooks','Finnish2.Fin.views.searchbooks'),   # page
http://127.0.0.1:8000/searchbooks is displayed, query works
   (r'^SB','Finnish2.Fin.views.searchbooks'), # page 
http://127.0.0.1:8000/SB
is displayed, query does not work, already print query statement in
views.searchbooks gives empty string
)

Maybe smbd can comment why this happens.

My MEDIA_URL is MEDIA_URL = 'http://localhost:8002/'

I have added

I'm not sure what changes I'm supposed to make regarding

Re: need help following tutorial part 1

[Andre Terra]

Quick and dirty solution:
python django-admin.py startproject mysite

or

Add C:\PathToYourDjangoInstall\Scripts\ to your PATH environment variable.
This can be done in one of two ways.

#1 (EASIER)
Open 'System Properties' (hit WindowsKey + PauseBreak, or right-click on My
Computer and select 'Properties').
Switch to the 'Advanced' tab, click on 'Environment Variables' on the bottom
of the dialog.
Find PATH on the 'System Variables' list, double-click.
append C:\PathToYourDjangoInstall\Scripts\ to the 'Variable Value'. Don't
forget to add a semi-colon.


#2 (BETTER)
Download and install virtualenv (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv)
Follow instructions to create a virtual environment in, say,
C:\django\virtual\
Create a 'mydjango.bat' batch file anywhere in your computer that sets the
PATH for you according to that virtual environment.
Create a shortcut pointing to: %windir%\system32\CMD.EXE /K
"C:\SomePath\mydjango.bat"
Run it whenever you want to work within that environment.


I personally use a variation of #2.

Sincerely,
André Terra

Re: need help following tutorial part 1

[Axel Bock]

you should not. are you IN c:\...\scripts when you type in
"django-admin.py"? AFAIK windows adds the current directory always to the
path.

and it's AXEL ;)

Re: need help following tutorial part 1

[Panupat]

Hi Alex. Thank you for you suggestion.

It seems I can get the script to run if I type out the full path.

C:\Python27\Scripts\django-admin.py startprofect mysite

C:\Python27 is already added to my windows' PATH. Proably will need to
add C:\Python27\Scripts to it too.

need help following tutorial part 1

[Panupat]

I'm kinda stuck and would greatly appreciate any help.

I followed these turorials and got Django to install. Was able to
import Django and print out the version correctly. I'm running
Apache2.2 on windows 7 with mod_wsgi

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/intro/install/

But moving forward to part 1, It says, cd to the directory and run the
command
django-admin.py startproject mysite

This is where I don't understand.
- running the command from cmd, it says django-admin.py is not
recognized as command.
- if I run python first, it says syntax error.

Am I missing something from the tutorial? Does the project need to be
in a particular folder in order for the .py file to be executable? Is
there anything else I need to add to windows other than adding C:
\Python27 to PATH?

newbie question about paths

[Brian Craft]

Suppose the project is /var/www/django/project. Following the django
with wsgi docs, you would add /var/www/django to the path, and
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE would be project.settings.

However, in that case, the path scheme described in the tutorial
doesn't work, e.g. setting up admin.py for Polls as described will
throw an error because it can't find a module Polls. Instead you have
to "from project.Polls.models import Polls", which seems to break the
modularity of the Polls app (since it has the project name embedded in
it, now).

So, should the wsgi config instead add /var/www/django/project to the
path, and set DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to "settings"?

The SO discussion you link to has several answers that give the correct 
workaround - create a method on the ModelAdmin that returns the value of the 
followed foreignkey.

Django Admin - list_display doesn't follow FK links?

[Victor Hooi]

Hi,

I'm trying to use list_display in the django-admin, and I can't seem to find 
a way to get list_display to follow FK links.

My models.py:

class Site(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50, unique=True)
description = models.TextField()

def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s' % (self.name) 

class AccommodationFeature(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50, unique=True)
description = models.TextField() 

class AccommodationRoom(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
site = models.ForeignKey(Site)
features = models.ManyToManyField(AccommodationFeature, null=True, 
blank=True)

def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s' % (self.name) 

class BedAvailability(models.Model):
number_of_single_beds = models.IntegerField()
number_of_double_beds = models.IntegerField()
conference = models.ForeignKey(Conference)
accommodation_room = models.ForeignKey(AccommodationRoom)

class Meta:
verbose_name_plural = 'bed availabilities'

def __unicode__(self):
return u'Availability for %s at %s' % (self.accommodation_room, 
self.conference)
# Surely this isredundant? hmm, list_dispaly doesn't seem to follow 
foreignkey relationships?
def site_name(self):
return u'%s' % (self.accommodation_room.site.name)

Each "Site" has multiple "AccommodationRooms", which in turn have 
"BedAvailabilities".

In the BedAvailabilitiesAdmin, for list_display, I'm trying to follow 
self.accommodation_room.site. This doesn't work using either dot notation or 
double-underscore notation.

Other ModelAdmin options seem to allow following FK links, using the double 
underscore notation.

E.g. ModelAdmin.search_fields allows you to search across FK's using:

search_fields = ['foreign_key__related_fieldname']


list_filter also seems to allow the same behaviour.
 
At the moment, I'm just using a function on BedAvailabilities to follow the 
relationships and print the site name. However, this seems a bit silly when 
logic would dictate that list_display behaves the same as search_fields and 
list_filter.
 
Is there any reason this feature doesn't work for list_display?

There's some discussion of it on SO:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/163823/can-list-display-in-a-django-modeladmin-display-attributes-of-foreignkey-fields

And a ticket for it her:

http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5863

but discussion seems to have petered off. Is there a technical or design 
reason for this?

Cheers,
Victor

So presumably a) you'll want to parse the soap into some python datastructure 
then b) alter it and then c) serialise it back out as the new value. So you'll 
need to find a python SOAP library, suds might do it: 
https://fedorahosted.org/suds/

Please note that the HttpResponse takes a string, not a dictionary as you are 
trying to use. Documented here:

You may add what ever you want to a user profile model and you can add files to

Re: Word file Display and Save??

[Maxim Mai]

I am not so sure if you can access MS word from python directly, or if
there are some libraries that allow you to do so. But I am sure that
there is one thing you can try:

WORD -> XML -> DOM -> Python -> django views.py / admin_views.py ->
DOM -> XML -> WORD

hope this helps, correct me if this is nonsense

Thanks,

Maxim Mai
