Remember that the auth app is not anything special -- it's an app just
like any of the apps you'd write. It contains a model called `User`
which is, again, a normal Django model, with all the normal Django
model methods -- specifically, `delete()`.
>From the interactive shell, it's easy to delete a user::
>>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User
>>> u = User.objects.get(username='jacob')
>>> u.delete()
So, you'd need to write a view that essentially does the above.
Remember that in views, the currently-logged-in user is available as
`request.user`, so::
def delete_me(request):
request.user.delete()
return render_to_response('youve_been_deleted.html')
You'll probably want to implement some sort of "are you sure?"
confirmation page, but I'll leave that up to you.
Good luck,
Jacob

Re: Django bug that should be addressed: Idle timeouts do not clear session information
Malcolm, I believe you and appreciate your advice, but you need to ease up. You're getting hung up on semantics. In this instance, I'm simply differentiating between a user clicking a link that says "Logout" (a.k.a, a manual logout) versus Django detecting the lack of a session cookie and redirecting the user to a login page (a.k.a., an automated logout). From the user's perspective, they have been automatically logged out. With that out of the way, let's wrap this up. Please correct me if I'm incorrect in this psuedo-code description of the manual login/ automated logout process: 1. User access Django-based website. 2. Django generates a session cookie with an expiration date based upon SESSION_COOKIE_AGE. (In this example, it's set to 3600) 3. User logs in 4. User traverses website for one hour (3600 seconds) 5. Browser removes expired cookie 6. User attempts to click new link in Django-based website 7. Django detects the missing cookie 8. Django redirects user to login page 9. Django generates session cookie, inserts a new record into django.sessions, and leaves old session information in django.sessions table The problem I'm trying to solve at this point is to slip in a call to an audit method between Steps 6 and 8. As soon as Django realizes the user's session is gone, I'd like to audit the "idle logout" (again, this is from the user's perspective). By "audit", I mean store a database record in my person.audit table with the user's user ID and a message noting their session has expired. And I agree with you: I don't think this can be done and you (and others) have provided enough explanation to convince me that there is no simple solution. I just wanted to make sure we're all on the same page with respect to the problem I'm trying to resolve.

Django doesn't know that the session has expired because all it sees is a user arriving without a session cookie (the cookie has expired, so the browser doesn't send it). Thus, the user looks like a brand new user at that point. So far this fact (that the cookie is not sent) has been mentioned three or four times in this thread. You really have to start believing us. > If there is some straightforward way to intercept the call to update > that table at the time of the automated logout, I'm all ears.

Re: Typo for Django or Like?
Hi James, Trying not to be pedantic but are you meaning to ask "if there are any applications that the list would recommend" rather than just "if there are any". I'm only saying this as it's otherwise it's almost impossible not to think http://lmgtfy.com/q=django+blogging +application and not be too encouraged to help you. The short answer is yes there are Django blogging applications and the general joke is how many Django developers have built their own blogging application. The real answer comes down to what you need from your blogging application which is I think what Alex asked originally.

Re: Django bug that should be addressed: Idle timeouts do not clear session information
Yes, it does generate new session_id. The user has essentially told Django to expire the session, which in turn results in a new session key. I'm starting to agree with Malcolm. Outside of an elaborate solution, this one may not be possible. As soon as the session expires, Django updates the records in the django.sessions table. As such, the only unique identifier for the user, "session_key", is overwritten. If there is some straightforward way to intercept the call to update that table at the time of the automated logout, I'm all ears.

Care to elaborate? I think you've arrived back at the point of what Django already provides, which is why the original ticket was closed. You run "django-admin.py cleanup" in a cronjob and all the old sessions are removed. You don't need to check the user ids or anything like that. Expired sessions are expired, no matter who they belonged to. Calling logout(), as the original poster requested doesn't achieve anything (it does nothing). If it did do something, it would still be a bad idea to call it, because the user could have already logged in again and logging them out would be unfortunate. So, yes, the cronjob is the solution.

Your assumption is incorrect. The admin.site.root processing does
something quite different to just comparing against a set of
urlpatterns.

Unfortunately before the 1.1 development version(that is to say in 1.0) the
admin urls were indeed special, in the sense that they didn't include
another URLconf as you're doing with the CMS urls, what they did was they
sent all the URLs to a single view and that view dispatched to other views.

I'm hesitant to rain on your parade here, as you've put some effort into
writing a bunch of code. But the approach is flawed. As soon as you have
multiple processes involved (which is going to be normal), this
in-memory storage won't work. There's no guarantee that the same session
will go to the same process (not to mention that the processes will stop
and start over time).
If you're going to do something like this, it has to be external from
the web-process lifecycle and a centralised point that each process
talks to. Some kind of server daemon.
At that point it becomes equivalent to just looking in the sessions
table for sessions that have already expired (which is a simple
queryset). (the server daemon in question is the database server, so the
pattern holds).
I also don't think you're solving the original problem here (detecting
when a user who is coming back has an expired session, rather than never
been logged in) and detecting when sessions have expired can already be
done by looking at the database table.

Re: TemplateSyntaxError (newbie)
Malcolm,
Thanks for the quick reply.
Problem solved - after reading your reply.
I changed
(r'^cms/(.*)', include('cms.urls')),
to
(r'^cms/', include('cms.urls')),
and it works fine.
I still don't quite understand because this *admin* url works fine
http://localhost:8000/admin/
when I have this pattern
(r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root),
Isn't the regex saying take all characters except a newline?
I doubt there is anything special about admin urls.
Oh wait - I think I see - the whole regex strips away what matches?
So if my URL is
http://localhost:8000/cms/first-story/
This regex r'^cms/(.*)' strips away "cms/first-story/"
and there is nothing left - thereftroe we see
arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.
Do I have that at least a bit right?
Many thanks.

That seems to be a very good idea malcolm.

This is the important part to look at here (certainly the place to
start). It's saying it can't look up that URL pattern by name to work
out that URL corresponding to it. Notice that it says no parameters
(arguments or keyword arguments) are being passed in.
Now, I can't see all the URL patterns here, but the problem looks like
this:
[...]
> urlpatterns = patterns('',
> # Example:
> # (r'^foo/', include('foo.foo.urls')),
>
> # Uncomment the admin/doc line below and add
> 'django.contrib.admindocs'
> # to INSTALLED_APPS to enable admin documentation:
> # (r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls')),
>
> # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
> (r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root),
> (r'^cms/(.*)', include('cms_site.cms.urls')),
Assuming it's inside that include() that the pattern with the "cms-site"
name lives, it's impossible for any of them to match something with no
parameters. The (.*) bit is capturing information in the reg-exp match,
so at least one parameter will be required.
So either the use the url tag in the template is bad or your URL
configuration is.

Malcolm

TemplateSyntaxError (newbie)
All,
I am

- an experienced developer
- a bit frustrated
While working my way through
"Python Web Development with Django"
I stumble on a TemplateSyntaxError when trying to
view a non admin page at this url:

I am having trouble figuring it out.

You could put it in one or the other of your existing applications if having a dependency of "blog" on "product" at the app-level makes sense.

Best practices to define model
Dear all, Currently I have a project in which the model will be used by several django application. What is the best practice to define this model? Let's say I have a category model that will be used from the blog application and also product application. Do we define that model in either one of the application, and the others will call it? Or should we define the category model in every application? Any inputs? Thank you very much in advance. -- If you can't believe in God the chances are your God is too small.

Both of these solutions have the same showstopping flaw: There's no way, on the server side, to associate a timed-out user with their previous session. Because the web browser doesn't send the session cookie. This whole "request for an enhancement" is based on wanting Django to act on information it cannot possibly know about in the first place and your solution suffers from the same problem. The only way to work around something like this is to have "never expire" sessions and manually manage the timing out on the server side.

That's not correct. They are two different approaches, with different functionality. Once you've created a User instance, you cannot create a subclass instanced based on the original instance (you can't do it even in Python, but Django also doesn't provide any way to wrap the database equivalent, since Django's model inheritance is modeled on Python's). Whereas you *can* create a user profile object after the fact and it will be retreived with get_profile(). Since User objects are often created quite separately from profiles (e.g. through the admin), this means the get_profile() approach is probably going to be more generally useful. This has come up a number of times in the past.

Re: Django bug that should be addressed: Idle timeouts do not clear session information
My previous idea was to maintain a Timer pool based on session ids. Every time a request with a session hits your server, you reset the Timer object associated with it. If a user logs out, you cancel the respective timer. If a timer triggers, it's a timeout. But, we can try a simpler approach. Assuming you don't need realtime audit logs, can you exploit the expired sessions not being automatically cleaned up?

Nope, seems this is actually impossible (at least using manage.py shell), since it will load all of the models and hold references to them on initialization until termination, so the settings-definte backend is tied to BaseQuery forever :( On Mar 17, 12:01 pm, Oliver Beattie wrote: > Thanks for your quick reply :) > > Basically, what I want to do has to apply to every query made to the > database, not just one query.

Write a custom filter that takes "spam" as an argument and does the
lookup for you.

The general plan is to either (a) write a custom template filter to do
this (similar to the last case and use forloop.counter as the argument)
or (b) stop trying to programming in templates and do programming in
your views instead. Arrange the datastructures that are passed to the
templates so that you can retrieve all the data value in a single loop.
Zip the lists together, or write a function that returns the
corresponding elements via an iterator and loop over that.
Django doesn't provide indirect variable references out of the box
intentionally.

Malcolm

Have you actually done anything in your application to utilize caching? Memcached isn't some sort of fairy dust that you turn on and your application magically becomes faster - you need to utilize the cache throughout your application. You mention that you have changed the cache backend, but you haven't mentioned what you have done in your application to make it use the cache. There are lots more details on what you can do here: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/cache/ > Is there a way to check memcached to see if it is functioning > correctly? I tried entering a bogus ip in the CACHE_BACKEND setting in > settings.py and nothing changed. Django restarted normally with no > errors. To check if the cache is working at all, use the low-level cache API. Launch a Python shell, and try to put a key-value pair into the cache, then check that you can retrieve the value. The docs for the low-level cache API should give you an idea of what to run. http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/cache/#the-low-level-cache-api Yours, Russ Magee %-) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

By default it uses the __unicode__ method to show the output. So either
define __unicode__ on the Post class, or do what's described here:

memcached: is this thing plugged in?
I have a test server which is running the db and django app (apache/ mod_python). Before moving to production, I'm running stress tests and optimizing performance. My plan is to optimize on the test box, see what works, then implement these on production which is separate db and app servers. Here's what I did today to test memcached: - ran stress test using siege before installing memcached - installed memcached on separate machine, opened port 11211, started daemon - pointed test server to memcached box using method in django docs - restarted apache/django on test box - ran siege again (a few times just to be sure) The result? No difference. Memcached does not provide any benefit according to my testing. I have siege set to log in as a user, then hit a single page which makes several db calls. The memcached server shows no movement in CPU, memory, or network usage which makes me wonder if I even have things set up correctly at all. Is there a way to check memcached to see if it is functioning correctly? I tried entering a bogus ip in the CACHE_BACKEND setting in settings.py and nothing changed. Django restarted normally with no errors. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Models and select
Hi there:
I have this model for example
class Categories(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
which holds this data on the DB
++--+
| id | name |
++--+
| 1 | Musica |
| 2 | Programacion |
| 3 | Libros |
| 4 | Politica |
| 5 | Humor|
| 6 | Basura |
| 7 | Varios |
How come now, everytime I create a form with either this
class PostForm(ModelForm):
post = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea({'rows': '20', 'cols':
'75'}))
class Meta:
model = Post
exclude = 'id'
or this
class CategoriesForm(forms.Form):
categories = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Categories.objects.all())
It shows this HTML output on the select field?
Categories:
-
Categories object
Categories object
Categories object
Categories object
Categories object
Categories object
Categories object
What is going on here? Am I missing something now? I've been doing this for
a long time and I guess I forgot something

RelatedObject Cache
Hello all, Quick question. Given these models ... class A(models.Model): pass class B(models.Model): model_a = models.ForeignKey(A) ... getting the model_a attribute on an instance of B will result in that related object being cached. So the question: given an instance of B, how do I know whether the related object has already been cached? Been looking through the source code, but I can't find where related_objects are stored.

nested dereferencing of values within value calls in templates
Ok, I'm wondering if there is any way to do this. Let me give a couple
of ***simplified*** examples to clarify what I'm talking about here. I
make "simplified" previously apparent because what I'm actually trying
to do is much more complicated than these examples.
View code:
==
return render_to_response('/path/to/html' , {
'foo': {'bar': 'eggs'} ,
'spam': 'bar' ,
})
==
Now, in my template I want to access {{ foo.bar }} via the dereferenced
*value* of "spam". Essentially, though I know this doesn't work, it
would look like this:
Template code:
==
Output "eggs": {{ foo.{{ spam }} }}
==
Is there any way at all to do something like that?
Here is another example, though I already know a workaround for it (at
the bottom), it seems like there should be a better way.
View code:
==
list1 = ['one' , 'two' , 'three']
list2 = [1 , 2 , 3]
return render_to_response('/path/to/html' , {
'list1': list1 ,
'list2': list2 ,
})
==
In the template, while looping through "list1", I want to be able to
directly access by index the corresponding value in "list2". I know the
following doesn't work, but again, it seems like there should be a way
to do this. Note that this is a greatly simplified version of what I'm
actually trying to accomplish!!
Template code:
==
{% for item in list1 %}
{{ item }}: {{ list2.{{ forloop.counter0 }} }}
{% endfor %}
==
Now, I know I can accomplish the above with a highly inefficient nested
loop:
Template code:
==
{% for item in list1 %}
{{ item }}:
{% for item2 in list2 %}
{% ifequal forloop.counter0 forloop.parentloop.counter0 %}
{{ item2 }}
{% endifequal %}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
==
Essentially, is there any way of performing a nested dereference
operation like these?

Re: Django bug that should be addressed: Idle timeouts do not clear session information
Taking the lead from http://www.artfulcode.net/articles/threading-django/ I would sugest you use a Timer object (http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/lib/timer-objects.html). DISCLAIMER: Careful! I haven't tested this! A Timer object uses a thread internally. Be careful with synchronization and related stuff. HTH.

Having skimmed most of it I can say it looks really good and I'm sure it basically all works, that said it isn't a final addition so there may be tiny errors, typos, or other mistakes. I wouldn't have a problem reading through that(I originally learned from the original book before it was published). If you haven't already I would take a look at the official django docs/tutorial, they really are quite good :).

Jacob, if I understand the issue is that on the 2nd page he wants to start
the count at 101, not 1.

I don't know why you'd need the sum filter; the for tag does
everything you'd want. See
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.0/ref/templates/builtins/#for for
details of the {% for %} tag. You want something like::
{% for record in record_list %}
{{ forloop.counter }}: {{ record }}

Django book mostly done?
I happened to visit the Django Book site 2.0 It still says that it's not complete, but it seems to cover everything the 1.0 did except for deployment and the Appendices. Could a person get a pretty good grounding in django now by reading 2.0? I guess what I mean is that for the past few months it's been suggested to go through the tutorial and the documentation rather than the django book. But, is the 2.0 book a good starting place now? Can't really say I'm a noob at this point, I've been through about 4 different books on django.

Do you mean in the template?
The view is python and you can access the profile just as you do so

I don't use Django templating but have you tried:
user.get_profile.home_address
Not sure why you'd be using myprofile there where in python you used
get_profile.

Re: TemplateDoesNotExist
Still stuck on this.
The tutorial says:
Put the following code in that template:
{% if latest_poll_list %}
{% for poll in latest_poll_list %}
{{ poll.question }}
{% endfor %}
{% else %}
No polls are available.
{% endif %}
by the template does it meant the index.html file?

Re: Numbering of items in template
You can use `forloop.counter` with `sum` filter. Or use `ol` html tag with proper `start` attribute.

Numbering of items in template
Hello, I've finally gotten pagination to work. Now I would like to add a sequential number to the beginning of each record in the output. In previous languages I used something like count=count+1 and then placed count at the beginning of each record output in the template. How is a record count created in django that can be displayed at the beginning of each record in the template? If I use the count starts over again for each page under pagination.

How can i access UserProfile from User in the views?
Hi
I know is easy to access to the UserProfile, like here:
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
u = User.objects.get(pk=1) # Get the first user in the system
user_address = u.get_profile().home_address
but is there a way to access to UserProfile in the view?
supposing the UserProfile model is called myprofile, this will not do
the trick:
{{ user.myprofile.home_address }}
any advice? Thanks

Re: Problem with formsets and uploading of files
This is an error of mine that happened when transcribing my code to

I DO call is_validate()
The issue here seems to be something I miss regarding the use of file
uploads together with formsets...
