Re: Passing variables to css file in django

The simplest solution is probably to keep all of the CSS that users can't customize in an external file (to be served as a static asset), but move anything that's user customizable to the of your base template, in a

Developing Django Apps - best practices?

All, I'd like to get some feedback from the community on the current best practices for developing standalone Django apps. To clarify, by 'standalone' I mean a codebase that is just the application itself, to be installed into a Django project via setup.py / pip, not working on the app

Django itself is completely platform agnostic. Years ago I used to develop on Windows, and typically where I would run into problems was trying to find binaries for third party libraries like PIL and psycopg2. They'd usually be available from somewhere or another, thanks to some kindhearted

Re: Template Caching with Messages

V, You're exactly correct - make sure you only cache what you actually want cached : ) Anything that should only be visible for one page view isn't a good candidate for caching. If your page has any sort of content that is specific to the current user - login state, etc., you probably don't

Re: django development server timeout too quick

Hadi, What is your SESSION_COOKIE_AGE set to? This setting controls session expiry. The default is 2 weeks. If you are not setting SESSION_COOKIE_AGE, check that your code is not calling request.session.set_expiry() anywhere. For light use, the default session backend (db) should meet your

Re: Calling Jquery or javascript function based on an if condition

A slight variation of this approach is to map some Django template context info to Javascript variables in one of your templates, making that data accessible to your compressed / minified JS code: # in a template, "base.html" perhaps.. window.DjangoContext = { userLoggedIn: {{

Re: Am I using static files "wrong"?

Micah, Here's a summary of how staticfiles works: 1. You place your static files, which are under version control, in app/static folders, or any directory defined in STATICFILES_DIRS. This is configurable, and works very similarly to how templates are placed in a project. The important thing

Jirka, Is your app possibly doing a 301 (Permanent) redirect to www.* ? Or possibly some other app you were working on recently? Browsers will cache 301 redirects and automatically do the redirect WITHOUT making the initial request to 127.0.0.1, so if some project you were working on issued

If you're using the User model from contrib.auth, you can simply use User.objects.create_user(username, email=None, password=password). This will create a new User object, and then call set_password() # forms.py class RegistrationForm(form.Form): username = forms.CharField() password =

Re: loading the external css file

Django doesn't server static files (like your CSS file) by default - but you can configure the development server to do so: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/static-files/ Note that this has changed a lot in Django 1.3, so be sure to view the correct version of that page for the version

Re: Load file into a FileField

Liriela, AFAIK it is not possible to programmatically populate a file input field, due to the many security exploits this would enable. If it were possible, it would be trivial to write a malicious script that would upload any file from a user's PC, so long as you knew the path. There are

Re: more than one querys LIKE in the same field

Not to second guess your intent, but are you sure you don't mean to OR the two? Your current SQL / Django query will only return tags that have both 'candy' and 'milk' in the tags string. If you do want to OR the queries, you can use Q objects: from django.db.models import Q

Re: How to join a search on user and user profile

You should be able to do something like: UserProfile.objects.filter(gender='female', user__email='some...@mail.com') Note the double underscore notation, which let's you access attributes of the related model. This example assumes that UserProfile has a FK field to User which is named 'user'.

One approach is to set "MaxRequestsPerChild" to one, basically forcing the server to reload on every request. Probably not the most efficient way to accomplish this, but almost certainly the most simple to implement. On Oct 3, 5:39 pm, Олег Корсак wrote: >

You probably don't want to reference the login view to /accounts. You probably mean to do this: (r'^accounts/', include ('django.contrib.auth.urls'), That will map /accounts/login to django.contrib.views.login, /accounts/ logout to django.contrib.views.logout, etc. In general, when using an

You could add a field to store the calculated size, and override the model's save method to perform the necessary calculation. Something like: def save(self, force_insert=False, force_update=False): self.size_formatted = self.width * self.height // or whatever your calculation actually is
