django-registration ImportError

[Mike]

I just updated django-registration to 1.0 (from 0.8) and now I get an 
ImportError:

ImportError: cannot import name activate

/Users/mike/sieve-django/SIEVEENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages/registration_email/backends/default/urls.py
 in 

   1. 
   
   from registration.views import activate, register
   
   

Has anyone else had this problem? For now I'll revert to 0.8.

Re: CSRF in javascript

[Fred Stluka]

Karl,

You are calling render_to_response() wrong.  See the docs at:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/shortcuts/#render-to-response


Instead of:

variables = RequestContext(request, {
'bookmarks':[bookmark],
'show_edit':True,
'show_tags':True
})
return render_to_response('bookmark_list.html', variables)

try:

variables = {
'bookmarks':[bookmark],
'show_edit':True,
'show_tags':True
}
return render_to_response('bookmark_list.html', 
variables, RequestContext(request))

Karl,

Since you already have a form, and are already submitting it
as an Ajax request via JavaScript, the easiest way is to just
put the {% csrf_token %} in the Django template for the page.
We do that for our Ajax forms.

If you are not using a Django template to generate the form,
there are lots of other convenient options.  See:
- https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/csrf/
and especially:

Re: Testing django views: RequestFactory and CSRF protection

[Vladimir Ignatev]

Well, looks like I've found workaround. At first we should test if a view 
have CSRF protection: 
def test_csrf_protected(self):
request = RequestFactory().post('', data={})
response = views.register_form(request)
self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 403)

(fix me, it is very weak test for example purpose)

Then we actually test view, providing request._dont_enforce_csrf_checks = 
True. And voila. Remember that you shouldn't test Django library, so it's 
obsolete to test "CSRF bypassing + view" chain. Test your view only and 
that it is protected with @csrf_protect is absolutely enough.

passing extra arguments formset save

[Clement Poh]

I have a bunch of inline formsets, which are related to two models. In this 
case I want to have a bunch of "Dealings" associated with a "Report" and a 
"Question".

So I can associate them to one fairly easily.

DealingFormset = inlineformset_factory(Report, Dealing, form = DealingForm)


So to associate the Dealing with the Question I do it when I save the form. 

> 104 dealings = formset.save(commit = False)
> 105 for deal in dealings:
> 106 deal.question = question
> 107 deal.save()


I wanted to move the second snippet to a method on the DealingForm. 
However, when I try to override the save on the form, I get an exception 
saying that the formset received an unexpected argument.

Is there a way to either at the beginning, associate an inlineformset with 
2 models? Or, is there a way to override the formset save method to accept 
my new argument?

Thanks

django-logtailer looks a great app, but the last commit was 2 years ago.
Also, it's focused on admins.
Maybe the term 'logs' is confusing. So, I'll change it to 'audit-data' (
stackoverflow suggestion ).
I need audit data not system logs.

Re: create random string for username

[Randy Baxley]

The Django tutorial is not quite making it for me.  This is a very
complicated language and all the pieces seem to not match up for me.  This
I think is my fault and most of it seems to be in the use of the r hat for
root and exactly how that points to views, models and dbs.  I may get there
but it is not easy without someone to be a sort of guide.  Each time though
I go into settings or one of the other files they get a perception of being
more familiar and thus shorter.  While doing some of those I say a key set
to fals for allow profanity but not sure what all that filter has passed
through it.

Overriding the formset save method/ Inlineformsets with 2 related Models

[Clement Poh]

I have a bunch of inline formsets, which are related to two models. In this 
case I want to have a bunch of "Dealings" associated with a "Report" and a 
"Question".

So I can associate them to one fairly easily.

DealingFormset = inlineformset_factory(Report, Dealing, form = DealingForm)


So to associate the Dealing with the Question I do it when I save the form. 

> 104 dealings = formset.save(commit = False)
> 105 for deal in dealings:
> 106 deal.question = question
> 107 deal.save()


I wanted to move the second snippet to a method on the DealingForm. 
However, when I try to override the save on the form, I get an exception 
saying that the formset received an unexpected argument.

Is there a way to either at the beginning, associate an inlineformset with 
2 models? Or, is there a way to override the formset save method to accept 
my new argument?

Thanks

File Log vs. Database Log

[Parin Porecha]

Hi,

I have a to-do list app ( using Django 1.5 and MySQL ) in which a task can
be shared with another user. Thus, a user can have personal tasks and
shared tasks. Shared tasks will be a fraction ( i guess around 30% of total
tasks of a user )

For shared tasks, I want to keep a log so that users connected to the task
can know who has done which changes.
For this, I'm thinking of keeping a log file for every shared task.
Whenever any user makes a change, it'll be appended to that file.

My question is - *Should I do it via file storage, or should I save it in
database ?*

Please note these points -
- Log will not be accessed frequently ( A file's log may be read 5-10 times
max in an hour. )
- In an hour, there may be total >500 writes ( but for different files. So
for a file there may be 10-50 max writes in an hour. So, concurrency is not
a major issue. )
- I won't need to search or modify the data anyway after reading it.

Thanks in advance !

You can.  Assigning random usernames isn't usually considered a very
nice thing to do to users, but assuming you have a valid use-case
for it, it's just simple Python:

  import random
  import string
  def random_username(characters=string.ascii_lowercase, length=10):
return ''.join(
  random.choice(characters)
  for _ in range(length)
  )

You might also want to post-process to check for profanity in it, as
you you don't (usually) want to assign profanity as a username:

  BAD_WORDS = [ ... ] # all in uppercase
  while True:
username = random_username()
normalized_username = random_username.upper()
for word in BAD_WORDS:
  if word in normalized_username:
break
else: # note this is at the indentation level of the "for", not "if"
  break
  print "Username:", username

It's not a perfect check, but it will eliminate the obviously
problematic ones based on your black-list
