Re: Getting properties of parent objects into a template
Yes, that would be the relationship and that was actually the first
thing I tried. The template gets passed an "array" of "entry" objects.
Within the template, I loop through them printing the headline, portion
of the body, and the created date. With Author's as a foreign key, I
assumed you could do something like {{ entry.author.name }} but I get
nothing in my output when I do this. I assume that objects passed in a
template can't follow their foreign key relationships.
Sorry, I am still very new to both Django as well as Python. Forgive me
if I am not stating my problem clearly.

As the model documentation points out, you must also set 'null=True' on the field to have the database accept NULL values; 'blank' is for admin validation only, and has no effect on whether the database will accept NULL. The distinction is necessary to allow situations where a field can be left blank via initial user input, but still requires that something else fill it in before saving (for example, you might want to have a field the user can fill in, but which will be filled with a default or automatically-calculated value when left blank). > I don't like the idea of manually going and changing the DB schema.

AFAIK this is currently not possible in admin without modifying the
Django source.
If you just want to alter the width of the text boxes in admin, you
can set the width using CSS. For example, you could place the
following code in templates/admin/base_site.html to override the width
of all text fields, as well as specify a different width for the
"title" field.
{% block extrastyle %}
input.vTextField { width: 200px; }
input#id_title { width: 100px; }
{% endblock %}
Hope this helps.

If we can use an alternative way to do that:
{% for t in s.teachers %}
{{ t.userinfo.informal_name }}{{ ";" if not forloop.last }}
{% endfor %}
Here I put "if" expression in template variable syntax. I don't know

custom manipulator - TextField or SelectField in RadioSelectField?
Hey all, I am trying to create a series of radio buttons where you can select one radio button, and next to the selection will be a Text Field, drop box, or maybe both, for additional information related/ needed for the current radio selection. like so: Radio | Label (o) show all rows () Limit to [text field] rows () Limit to [text field] percent of rows or, either line might have a select field instead of a text field, e.g.: () Limit to [select field] percent of rows is it possible to put a text field/ select field into a choices section of a radio list? Or would this be better served by manually retrieving form values in a post call and parsing them individually (rather than via a manipulator)? thanks! -C --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

This same conversation is going on in another thread at the moment, so
let me explain the general case: any chained filter or exclude()
commands that involve the same column in the table ('groups' in your
case) are not going to work perfectly at the moment. Same goes for
joining Q() instances involving identical columns. So try out what you
hope might work, but check the SQL carefully before using it as an
aircraft navigation system or floatation device.
It's a bug. It's on the operating table. We expect the patient to make a
full recovery in the near future.

I don't see a lot of problem with using that function if you really need
to. It exists to provide the functionality you are using it for to the
Django core.

With that particular view setup, you could look at the __file__
attribute (every module has one -- try printing it out to see that it's
just a standard file path, so os.path.* can be used to work on it) and
work it out from there (go to the name aboves the 'views/' component).
In general, though, this is an impossible problem based on the
information the view has available to it. Since the view is just a
Python function, it could be located anywhere at all. Multiple
directories down, or in an entirely different part of your filesystem.
So either the view module has to know its position relative to your
application directory (the case at the start of this paragraph), or you
have to pass in the application name to the view somehow. Otherwise it
simply does not have enough information.
You might think "well, my views will always be under the app directory"
and they may well be in this case. However, that's not a universal
truth. For example, as Don pointed out, generic views are useful in some
cases and they live somewhere entirely different. Sometimes you will
write an app that only consists of views and uses models from other
applications (so they present a different outlook on the data). And so
on and so forth.

Malcolm

Then you need to provide a more concrete example. Show a small example

These are just different representations of the same string of bytes,
though. The results of repr(s) -- the last line of output you show -- is
exactly what the code is sending back to your browser and it is the
bytes that go into the UTF-8 string. It appears that your browser (or
whatever you are using to display the bad results you showed earlier) is
not interpreting those bytes as UTF-8 stream of bytes, which is why I
suspect the client is not receiving the right encoding.
It doesn't make sense to talk about sending the string back "as print
does", since it's the same stream of bytes that repr() displays, just
processed according to the rules of converting UTF-8 bytes into glyphs
from your chosen character set(s). That is something the browser should
be doing in your case.
However, something else is going wrong if your example represents real
output, too, because \x0f isn't the first character of any printable
UTF-8 sequence. So I'm not sure that 's' really is UTF-8 in your
example.

Chaining filter & exclude weirdness in many-to-many relationships
I'm trying to get a queryset of all users in two particluar groups that *aren't* in a third particular group. Here's what I tried*: User.objects.filter(groups__in=(author_group, guide_group)).exclude(groups=staff_group) This is the SQL produced: SELECT * FROM auth_user LEFT OUTER JOIN auth_user_groups ON auth_user.id = auth_user_groups.user_id WHERE auth_user_groups.group_id IN (5,3) AND NOT auth_user_groups.group_id = 1 The "AND NOT auth_user_groups.group_id = 1" clause has no effect on the query. What I want is something like: SELECT auth_user.id, auth_user.username, auth_user_groups.group_id FROM auth_user LEFT OUTER JOIN auth_user_groups ON auth_user.id = auth_user_groups.user_id WHERE auth_user_groups.group_id IN (5,3) AND auth_user.id NOT IN ( SELECT auth_user.id FROM auth_user LEFT OUTER JOIN auth_user_groups ON auth_user.id = auth_user_groups.user_id WHERE auth_user_groups.group_id = 1) Is there a solution for me that doesn't resort to raw SQL? Thanks in advance for helping me earn my Django queryset black belt. * There's currently a bug in Django which causes User.objects.filter(groups__name="staff") to fail, so my workaround is this: staff_group = Group.objects.get(name='staff') User.objects.filter(groups__name=staff_group) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

The problem Adrian mentions is that slice takes a string (such as
"1:7" or ":2"), whereas map would have to take an argument and look
it up in the context. I'm not even sure if the context is available
when the filter argument would have to be resolved.

I like Tod's solution and I don't see the problem, maybe I'm missing
something:
We have a function being passed to context -- I don't see why that
would be a problem since the context can contain objects.
And we have a template filter named |map which takes a list, does

Ai, really? I'm a n00b when it comes to SQL and the SQL statement of a chained filter (as listed by connection.queries) is about 8 (!) lines of SQL abacadabra. Sure there is no other way to solve this issue?

If I'm guessing correctly that relation is like this:
class Article(models.Model):
author = models.ForeignKey(Author)
... then {{ article.author.name }} should work.

Re: Getting properties of parent objects into a template
Hi David,
Not sure what you mean by "parent object". If author is a ForeignKey
in your blog_entry model, and author has a field called full_name,
then you should be able to use {{ blog_entry.author.full_name }}.
Otherwise, you could just place author in the context that's passed to
your templates.
blog_entry = ... # get blog entry
author = ... # get author
t = loader.get_template('blog/detail.html')
c = Context({
'blog_entry': blog_entry,
'author': author,
})
return HttpResponse(t.render(c))
Hope this helps.

edit_inline behavior
Howdy --
edit_inline seems to be doing something funky when I use it through
update_object generic view. I've got a model that looks something like
this:
class StationEvent(models.Model):
date = models.DateTimeField()
description = models.CharField(maxlength = 150)
class Admin:
pass
class StationEventParticipant(models.Model):
event = models.ForeignKey(StationEvent,edit_inline=models.TABULAR)
participant = models.ForeignKey(Member, core=True)
The relevant part of the template is:
{% for p in form.stationeventparticipant %}
Participant:
{{ p.participant }}
{% for e in p.errors %} {{ e }} {% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
At first glance it appears to be working -- the update_oject view for
StationEvent lists its fields and a field for a participant. But when
it's actually saved, what happens is that for each participant listed,
it will create a new StationEventParticipant object whether or not it
already existed. So every time I come back after saving the list of
participants doubles!
All of this machinery works fine in the django dupplied admin
interface, so I'm guessing it's something I'm doing wrong. Any help
would be awesome! Apologies if this is a common issue, but a search
through the mailing list doesn't indicate anyone has had this problem.

Re: Problem of render context
Actually, it's not the problem of encoding, I think.
For example, if s is a string, the render() method should treate {{ s
}} in the way print() does. But now what I see on the page is
something like you see in a interactive python console.
>>> print s
XXX #Some text
>>> s
'\x0f\xde' #this is what I see.

Case sensitivity with different database backends
Hi,
I've noticed that my application changes case sensitivity in queries
depending on whether it is using MySQL or sqlite as the database
backend
The simplest test case is as follows:
My database contains a user record, in which the username is = "jon"
My urls.py is simply as follows:
(r'^/?(?P\w+)/$', 'abnew.planetx.views.user'),
My corresponding view code to retrieve this user is like this:
def user(request, person):
# Let the logger know where we are.
logging.info("Rendering person " + person)
user = User.objects.get(username=person)
Now, if I point my browser at localhost:8000/jon, or
localhost:8000/Jon when using MySQL, the query works correctly.
However, when using sqlite the second query will not work (as the
first character is upper case, and hence different from what is in the
database).
If there a recommended way to deal with this? I want to avoid forcing
a certain scheme on the users (i.e., they can type the name in all
lowercase, uppercase or mixed, it doesn't matter).
Thanks,
--Jon

You might want to look at generic views. When you write "my views.py
is very simple", that's a cue that a generic view is a good idea.
With a generic view, you can code most of the info in the urls.py
file and eliminate the views.py altogether. When I first came across
generic views, I passed over them thinking I wanted to control all of
my views. Then after coding numerous "simple" views, you start to
wish that there was an easier way - generic views are the answer to
repetitive coding. There are generic views for many mundane tasks.
As for the get_model thing, I don't have a good idea as to how to
deal with that. I am usually not too concerned with decoupling my
templates from my views, so hard coding them is not really a burden.

Beginner questions on writing views
I'm working through the tutorial, applying its lessons to my own
database. So for example where it covers writing a detail view for the
Poll model, I think really I'm going to want a detail view for each of
the models in my database, and they're all going to be the same except
for the name of the model and the actual stuff that gets output, which
will be controlled by the model-specific template.
So I come up with a url mapping that looks like this:
urlpatterns = patterns('kmt.crossword.views',
(r'^(?P\w+)/(?P\d+)/$', 'detail'),
)
and my views.py is very simple:
from django.db.models import get_model
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response, get_object_or_404
def detail(request, model_name, id):
model = get_model('crossword', model_name)
instance = get_object_or_404(model, pk=id)
return render_to_response(model_name + '_detail.html', {'instance':
instance})
This works nicely, but I have a few niggling questions. First I found
that useful get_model function not in the documentation, but by looking
around in the Django code. Is this something I should be using, or is
it really only intended for Django internal use? If it's not something
I should be using, where should I be looking to figure out how to
accomplish the kind of thing it does for me?
Second, it seems a bit inelegant to hardcode my own app name
('crossword') here. Seems like there should be some way for my
kmt.crossword.views code to figure out that its own app name is
'crossword', but how to do that is eluding me. I'm not quite sure I'm
going to stick with that name so I'd like to minimize the places I have
it hard-coded.
(Finally I know I am ignoring some error cases at the momemt, like if a
url with a non-existant model name comes in. I know I have to deal
with that but right now I'm concentrating on the model names that do
exist.)
Thanks for any feedback -- I'm a complete Python and Django novice so
welcome any and all suggestions as to how I should be approaching this
in the proper manner.

I would guess that the character encoding on the HTTP response is not
set to UTF-8. Have a look at the HTTP headers that are being returned.
The template substition (the render() call) should substitute in the
UTF-8 string without complaint.

Just a testimony, I have to learn symfony php framework (django rox but my boss no...) recently and I'm really surprised by the quality of the documentation. Have a look at: http://www.symfony-project.com/content/documentation.html It's really clear: you have tutorials on the top and documentation at the bottom. I think it's interesting to have two kind of tutorials for Django too: * a quick one for a first overview. * a second one for a real site, everybody knows that a real site can't be done in 15 minutes! For the moment, polls app is great but not as fast as "create a blog in 5 minutes" (and with generic views it's possible to do that). In this case, the user doesn't understand exactly what happens but he is really impressed and want to know more about this wonderful framework. Next step is the real site one which explain exactly what happens and Django mechanisms. This one can be detailed and follow a kind of time line to reflect the "reality" of the tutorial.

Django Blog software
Hi, I've been playing with Django for a few weeks, and I've been looking for some blog software which I can use for my blog and also play with extending to help me learn a little more about Django. I searched the Django wiki, and does as many Google queries as I can think of, but I can't find anything but references to people homebrewing their own blogging system. I realise that writing a blogging system in Django wouldn't take much work, but I was just wondering if there was anything already out there. Any ideas? --Jon --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

And in a more generic sense the APPEND_SLASH setting of the CommonMiddleware may be what you are looking for. http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/middleware/#django- middleware-common-commonmiddleware On 13/08/2006, at 5:17 PM, Ivan Sagalaev wrote: > > a wrote: >> http://localhost/todo >> >> i want to rewrite this automatically as >> >> http://localhost/todo/ >> >> is there a easy way to do this > > Yep. > > http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/generic_views/#django- > views-generic-simple-redirect-to > > > --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: How to make delete() more clever?
First I should thank Ivan for your help. But I think Malcolm figured out what I really want. Maybe django should catch Exception when calling a model's save / delete method. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
