Re: Announcing the birth of Fluther.com
Hi David, "Real-time" means that if you're in the same discussion as another member, you can see them crafting their response in real-time (similar to the ellipsis you see during an iChat) -- something that's happening more and more as we keep doubling our users. We only "use" the data we have to automagically build people's profiles and match/filter questions that may interest them. We will never share any information (email, IM, etc) with any third party unless we're compelled to by law or imminent danger (perhaps a suicide note or something similar). Does that answer your questions? Should we make the privacy policy more explicit? Best, Andrew On Jun 29, 4:42 pm, "David M.

Re: Using more than one database in the project
Hi Ana, I'm hoping that I'll get an answer from someone in the next few days and be able to check these changes in. Otherwise I can send you the patch. Help with the testing would be ideal, it's one of the week areas! One of the tests is broken to the extent that it locks the dajngo_session table in the test db (under postgres) completely and I have to close bash to kill it!

I'm guessing your model defines a foreign key to User.

Re: how I can get the proper get_absolute_url?
It could be that I don't understand the question, but don't you need
to use reverse() to resolve the url from the model? A quick google
search found this blog posting showing what I thought was the way to
do it:

Re: how I can get the proper get_absolute_url?
I think it is better to show my code
This is my models's get_absoute_url function
def get_absolute_url(self):
return ('blog.views.tag_main', None, {'username':User.username,
'slug': str(self.Slug)})
get_absolute_url = permalink(get_absolute_url)
This is a part of my urls.py which is equivalent to above model.
urlpatterns = patterns('blog.views',
(r'^(?P\w+)/$', 'main'),
(r'^(?P\w+)/page/(?P\d+)/$', 'main'),
(r'^(?P\w+)/tag/(?P[-\w]+)/$', 'tag_main'),

I try to get the proper get_absolute_url. Under the this circumstances. I have username parameter in my URL. like this http://.../(? . I need to pass this username parameter to the get_absolute_url function. But I don't know how to get the proper username.

Working '/comments/flag/[comment.id here]/' examples?
Hello, I've been poking around the SVN Comments and django.contrib.comments.views.userflags. I've got the URL "/comments/flag/[comment.id here]/" working the "first" time, i.e. like it's used on an ljworld.com story page, where it returns an "are you sure?" page and a "Yes, go ahead" form button that POSTs flagging the comment. In my example, when I click to POST I get: 'UserFlagManager' object has no attribute 'objects' The "/comments/flag/[comment.id here]/" POST action URL dispatches to django.contrib.comments.models.UserFlag, which imports UserFlagManager, which then throws the error. After that, I'm scratching my head. I'm stumped. Any suggestions as to where to look for working Comment (not FreeComment) models?

Re: Variables available to all templates
A `related thing`__ came up on the Django Dev list this week.
I'm not that old-school. :-) I use that `{% if user.is_authenticated
%}` all over my site and it's a pain to import and call all the stuff
you need for render_to_response over and over. So this is what I
changed all my views to this week::
from django.views.generic.simple import direct_to_template
def my_view(self):
return direct_to_template(request, 'my_template.html', {
'extra-context': 'goes here',
})

extends admin/change_list.html bug?
Hi,
I created a page that
{% extends "admin/change_list.html" %}
Everything is working fine except, for some reason, the page doesn't show
the links in {% block userlinks %} when I use apache but it *does* show them
when I use the development server. The code is exactly the same on both
setups.
These are the 'documentation, change password, logout' links you see on any
standard admin page, and I *do* see them on admin pages on my apache setup.
The apache setup does find the admin css stuff fine so I don't think that
the apache configuration could be the problem. Also, I can customize
admin/base.html just fine.
Any ideas what could be going on? I am using svn 5559.
Thanks,
Vincent

This is just for development. Once it goes into production I don't care what

which leads to super long lines in the template, which makes reading the

Is that line broken by a line break inserted by you? I would think
this would achieve your desired result (the following contains no line
breaks by me):

render_to_response(template_name, context_instance=None, **kwargs) is
a shortcut over this:
t = get_template(template_name)
c = context_instance or Context()
c.update(kwargs)
return HttpResponse(t.render(c))
So passing in context_instance is still shorter.
If you still don't like it, you could use
django.views.generic.direct_to_template as the last line instead of
render_to_response.
I guess I'm old school-- I still generally use the longer form. :)

I've taken the latter approach in my projects. Something like:
{% load cart_tags %}
{% get_cart as cart %}
{% for items in cart %}
...
{% endfor %}
Then, you might put that code somewhere higher up in the template
hierarchy:
{% block shopping_cart %}
{% endblock %}
or you might include it as a template:
{% include "shopping_cart.snippet..html" %}
Whatever you do, I would recommend taking the approach of loading the
shopping cart a tag.
That's my opinion, anyway.

Sounds like the template tag is what you're looking for. Basic template tags are pretty easy and there are some nice helper functions that facilitate the process. They're detailed in the documentation for template tags. That way, your view only needs the brains to pass in what's needed for the template tag's context, and the template can choose to render the tag or skip rendering the tag. -tim --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Django Template
Hi, MVC is still a bit alien to me but I'm slowly getting to grips with it. I've previously used languages like PHP in conjunctions with template engines such as Smarty. What I can't quite grasp with django is, suppose I have a three column layout for a shopping site and I wanted to show a summary of the carts contents on MOST of my pages in the third column ... Would I then have have to implement the functionality of this in every view by calling an cartSummary method and pushing that out into the template?

Using a closure as a callback.
I have a design approach I've been kicking around and thought the group might have some opinions on the subject. Here's the scenario. You're on a web page and you're filling in data for a new Widget to add to your inventory. In the middle of the form you see that you need to create a new Type for this Widget. You click on the 'Add Type' link/button and one of the following happens, depending on the design of the application: 1. An AJAXy div pops up, you fill in the Type information, click save, and the new Type is selected on your form. 2. You leave your Create Widget page, go to the Create Type page, enter the data, click save, and you are returned to the Create Widget page with new Type selected on your form. The first scenario is straight-forward, whiz-bangy, and doesn't work without javascript. It's definitely an option, but not what I want to discuss. The second scenario is what I'm curious about. The problem to solve in that scenario is where does the Create Widget form data get stored while you're off creating a Type? You can put it in the session, or you can put it in private data on the Create Type form. Once the Type is created or canceled, you need to redirect back to the Create Widget form with the form data, with the data possibly modified to indicate the new Type is selected. The solution I tried with this was to create a closure at the jumping off point, that is when the user decides they need to go off and create a new Type. The closure contains the form data and, when executed, returns a response rendering the Create Widget page. This allows me to write my Create Type view with very little knowledge about how it was called. In it, after a post or cancel, I check to see if there is a closure (callback) available (red flag here, discussed below), and execute it with the current request and the selected type, if available. I like the way this works, but there's certainly nothing novel about the approach. Paul Graham describes this approach in how they did things at ViaWeb way back in the day, which was my inspiration for trying this. The aforementioned red flag (as pointed out to me by an expert Python user I'm working with) is that the closure/callback is not serializable, and thus the approach falls apart when you start load balancing your application (I store the closures in a stack for each session key as a 'global' variable). I really like the intent of the approach, in that a view doesn't have to know how it's being used, it can simply forward off to whatever might be in the stack, or take it's own action if nothing is there. But how do you get around the serialization problem? Or can you? Or do you end up hacking it up so much that there's a better way to do it, like just storing the form data and a function name in a 'stack' on the user session? Long winded, dry, and quite possibly moot and uninteresting. But hey, I thought I'd throw it out there... If you have any thoughts on the subject or are willing to share how you approached this (common?) problem I'd be happy to read them! doug. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Ahh, gotcha. I changed my index view to:
def index(request):
return render_to_response('index.html',
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
My only concern is that it would seem that I'll need to manually build and
pass in a RequestContext for every single view, since I want to have a login
or logout link at the top of each one. Is that correct?

Internationalization of templates
Hi,
I'm beginner in Django and I have a question about internationalization
support.
If my understanding of i18n is correct, there are 3 basic approaches:
1. for views _() function
2. for templates {% trans ... %} block
3. for static files URL containing language code
Templates containing more static texts I'd like organize in separated
folders e.g.
app/templates/de/tpt1.html
en/tpt1.html
and pass their names e.g. to render_to_response() function. But I'm not
sure if I can do that, because TEMPLATE_DIRS
contains absolute pathes to folders, where Django will
look for templates files
by name. Is it possible to pass something like 'de/tpt1.html' as
'template_name' argument?
Thanks, Peter

Filter a single trans tag
Hi everybody,
I'm searching for a short way of applying a filter to a translated
text. I've found some "complex" ways, but I think that probably
there's one shorter.
What i want can be done (for example) by:
{% filter title %}{% trans 'my text' %}{% endfilter %}
{% blocktrans with 'my text'|title as titled %}{{ titled }}{%
endblocktrans %}
But I'm looking for a shorter way, someting like:
{% trans 'my text'|title %}
{% _('mytext')|title %}
that of course doesn't work.
Thanks!

Ah, so if I read that right, you'd be in favor of an optional mapping from field to widget supplied by the template. Right now a template is a tree of nodes which return byte strings. Templates don't know anything about widgets. Maybe a subclass of Template could provide that mapping and get_template and friends could take an optional parameter for which Template class to use. Or would you need mappings based on something other than template type?

Well, here's my sitewide template that everything else extends:
---
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en">
{% block title %}Title goes here{% endblock %}
{% if user.is_authenticated %}

{% else %}
Welcome, new user. Please http://www.example.com/
accounts/login/">log in.
{% endif %}
{% block content %}The author didn't have much to say.{% endblock
%}
---
Whenever I visit that page, I get the "Welcome, new user. Please log
in." message. But if I click that link, I get this page template:
---
{% extends "page_template.html" %}
{% block content %}
{% if form.has_errors %}
Your username and password didn't match. Please try again.
{% endif %}
Username:{{ form.username }}
Password:{{ form.password }}
http://www.example.com/"; />
{% endblock %}
---
...which yields the text "Welcome, kirk. Thanks for logging in." I'm
finding this somewhat confusing in that page_template knows my name if
I'm viewing the login page but not the main index.html.
BTW, this is using Django 0.96 on FreeBSD 6-STABLE.

For this example:

if it helps, you can consider the parent declaration (foo) to be an

Also, naming generally helps.

Re: New Forms
Yes, Sorry I meant view not middleware. I suppose the question is ultimatly an question of taste. I do completly agree that form processing is complex, and that error checking should be done in the view. Im still not sure, however, that the definition of how it gets rendered in hml should be anywhere but the template. Thanks for all your help though, it always helps to get other peoples' perspecive.

This is a great way of changing widgets. From my point of view, however, the problem remains that the the widget definition is still in the middleware. Id like to define the Field widget in my templates without using a django object (ie. widgets.PasswordInput() ). Im not sure if this even possible, but it seems to be the most logical place to do it.

Re: Developing a flexible CMS
Hello everyone, I am talking to a friend to find a good solution for
this question and finally write our own CMS. I am really thinking
about how to create a flexible CMS and don't break django or don't
rework a lot of stuff.
So, what I do believe is that we have to focus on a Management System
then Content, and a flexible system should be able to go as far as we
want.
So, I like the idea of a page, but I do believe that a "portlet" is
more useful then a page content. So, with this in mind, we have to
think about a subapplication to be shown on a page, and not a bit of a
rock to put on the screen. But, of course, the simplest portlet will
be just a "content-link", but if I want something more complex, I can
do it and without the necessity of to write a new template tag,
because, if I am not a programmer I will get stucked and Django
solution won't be my solution.
A CMS is to make my website easier to grow, and not to create
barriers.
And about managing multiple objects of a model, we MUST remember that
THERE IS Django's Manager and that's what we have to work on. So, I
think that our answer for this question resides on there. Django is
flexible, powerful, but "young" and don't have "much" automated
because WE don't know the perfect solution yet. But I don't believe it
will be far from the actual implementation.
Not rework, but improve Django, that's the way for a Real django
powered CMS that I would like to see.

Just a quick update to mention that we've taken these comments into account and we've optimized our Django setup at WebFaction: - Django apps now comes with mod_python-3.3.1 by default - mod_python is now compiled with a shared libpython.so (the size of mod_python.so went from 3MB down to 300KB). - you can now choose between Python-2.4 or Python-2.5 when creating a Django app. Remi -- WebFaction - Hosting for an agile web http://www.webfaction.com --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

New Forms
Hello Django users, I have a quick question about new Forms in Django 0.96. I am finding that the line between my front-end and the middleware is starting to blur due to the new forms library. I have managed to add css to form field widgets dynamically through the use of template filters which, in my optinion ,does not violate the model-view-controller architecture. However, things become a bit more difficult when I want a form.CharField object to be rendered dynamically as a element. It seems that the only provided place to accomplish this is in the Field's declaration itself: password = forms.CharField(label ='Password', required = True, max_length =20, widget =widgets.PasswordInput()) Does anyone have an alternative method for dynamically specifying the widget of a Form.Field? I do realize this could be done in a similar fashion to the CSS, but I believe specifying a Django object as a parameter to a template filter would then violate my front-end.

Re: One-to-one relationship (model inheritance) or generic relations?
Russ,
Really useful response, thanks.
I had thought about your third option but as I figured there'd be a
lot of empty fields I didn't give it much consideration. I might
actually go down that route until I have a better understanding of
generic relations.
Thanks again.

searching problem
Hi, I'm trying to write a search to search through my models but i have a feeling i'm doing it the wrong way. The search string is almost always many words long. So i split the search string into individual words. I need to search and find records that contain all the words searched. I don't know how to auto generate Q objects, so i tried to auto generate the SQL and do a search like: results = Profile.objects.extra (where=[generate_code(**params)] ) the code i generate with the generate_code() method has percent (%) signs ( i.e. WHERE details LIKE '%string%' ) but django thinks i'm trying to pass other parameters.
