Re: how to replace "Congratulations on your first Django-powered page." with my home page

[Justin Myers]

It already tells you why it's showing that page. You need to add some
entries to urls.py, at the very least. The tutorial Sithembewena
linked you to is a good start.

Mudar Senha de um usuário

[Giovanna Ronzé]

Dado que um usuário está logado e quer mudar sua senha, como eu faço
para o django mudar a senha daquele user sem que seja preciso que ele
preencha esse campo (do nick)?

Bem, para resolver esse problema, primeiro eu fiz de uma forma que
necessitava do user dizer o nick.
Pesquisando, eu vi que tinha uma classe PasswordChangeForm e tentei
usar. Olha, se alguém me ensinar como se usa de fato (tanto no
urls.py, no html e no views.py se possível ^.^) tudo bem. Mas eu
realmente não consegui aplicar essa classe.

Diante disso, voltei para ideia inicial de construir minha própria
função. O problema voltou a ser o tal do campo user. Já que o usuário
está logado, como eu 'pego' seu campo de username pelo views.py?

Aí está a tentativa dessa função e os trechos de código relativos:

[views.py]

@login_required
def mudar_senha (request):
return render_to_response('matematica/mudar_senha.html')

@login_required
def mudar_senha_dados (request):
erro = False
nome = request.POST['username']
user = User.objects.get(username=nome)

if request.POST['password'] == '':
erro = True
return render_to_response('matematica/mudar_senha.html', 
{'erro':
erro})
else:
user.set_password(request.POST['new_password'])
user.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/')

[mudar_senha.html]



Nova senha 

{{ form.new_password }}






[urls.py]

(r'^mudar_senha/', 'projeto.matematica.views.mudar_senha'),
(r'^mudar_senha_dados/',
'projeto.matematica.views.mudar_senha_dados'),

Bem. Desde já agradeço a atenção.

Re: Preventing code from running during user tests

[Jim D.]

Thanks Russ, that's helpful.

I would think signals would ideally be a solution for this, no? E.g.,
a setup and teardown signal that fired in setup_test_environment() and
teardown_test_environment(), respectfully. I was actually hoping to
find this already implemented when I checked the documentation for
signals.

A custom test runner would be the usual way to accomplish this, and as
of Django 1.2, it's a lot easier to write one because the test runner
is class based. On a smaller scale, you could also accomplish this
using a setUp()/tearDown() pair in individual test cases.

The "if TEST" approach advocated by 'thebitguru' will certainly work,
but it's not a pattern that I'd like to see take hold in Django
itself. This approach essentially introduces branches into your main
codebase, so now you need to be testing whether or not your code is
hitting the right branches -- in theory, it is possible that your
production code could activate the "if TEST' branch, so you need to
test that this won't happen.

If you have a suggestion of a better way to provide setup/teardown
hooks, I'd be happy to hear it.

validation in fields with custom forms

[msoulier]

I have a custom field with takes an ipv4/v6 address or an fqdn, or a
list of
same, comma-separated. I'm using it in a form where I then have a
custom
validator for that field.

ie.

class SipTrunkForm(forms.Form):
remote_addr = twcustomfields.SockaddrListField()
remote_port = forms.IntegerField(min_value=1,
 max_value=65535)

So, SockaddrListField has a clean() method, which seems to work fine.

Meanwhile, in the SipTrunkForm I have a clean_remote_addr() validator
to
further validate the address and the port together.

The problem is, when clean_remote_addr is called, the port value
doesn't seem
to be in cleaned_data yet. It appears soon after, as the view sees it
and
saves it just fine, but it doesn't appear in the validator for the
form.

This seems like a bug to me...

Or am I doing this wrong somehow? When I validate remote_port instead
by
renaming clean_remote_addr to clean_remote_port, it all works fine.

Django doesn't include the GET arguments as part of the URL dispatch
process, so the {% url %} tag matches the body of the URL; if you want
to pass in GET arguments, you then need to provide them as additional
URL info in your template.

You're asking for a 'better' way, but you haven't said why the
existing way isn't acceptable. AFAICT, it should work as you describe
-- what exactly is the nature of your objection?

RFE. Django doesn't currently have a concept of a "read only"
database; when you run a test, it tries to create a test version of
any database that is defined in DATABASES so that the test environment
is isolated from production.

It's an interesting idea though -- the concept of a truly 'external'
data source that can be reliably used in testing isn't something that
was considered as part of the multi-db design process.

There have been requests in the past to be able to control whether the
test setup is responsible for creating and destroying the test
database. If we introduced such an option, it might be possible to use
the TEST_NAME setting to point the test framework at your 'read-only'
database. However, there are other details that would need to be
finessed -- e.g., how does the test transaction rollback process work
on a database that can't be written to?

As a workaround for now, you should be able to write a custom database
backend for your readonly database -- extend the Django builtin
backend, but override the _create_test_db() and _destroy_test_db()
functions on the creation module to be no-ops. Use this backend for
your readonly database, and you will be able to use the TEST_NAME
trick right now.

How to clear wrong form data (e.g password field), but still show error?

[Evgeny]

Hello,

I know that this has been asked before, and the answer seemed to be
- display the wrong data back to the user along with the error
message.

However, this does not really work with password fields, because there
is nothing really to display.
Let's say the entered password was too short or two passwords did not
match - all you'll see is the equal number of asterisks.

In this situation I'd like to clear the fields, but display the error
message,
otherwise user has to clear the field himself/herself, which I think
is an unnecessary extra step.

Why not just allow :

form.clear_field_data('somefield')

Thanks.

Evgeny.

Preventing code from running during user tests

[Jim D.]

I have some code that calls a third-party API in a Django application
I'm working on, which could be triggered at various points throughout
a project. I would like to ensure that the API itself doesn't actually
get called at all during test mode, much the same way that Django
itself swaps out the email backend during test mode to ensure emails
don't actually get sent during testing.

The key point here is I need to ensure the real library isn't being
called anywhere during the tests being run throughout the suite, not
just in the test code I'm writing specifically for the application
itself.

Is there a clean way to do this? I notice that Django disables the
email and a few other settings in the setup_test_environment()
function. I'd like to do something similar, but the only idea I've
come up with so far is to create a custom test runner that extends the
default setup_test_environment() method and adds a few items of my
own. While this would work, it would depend on the project using a
custom test runner.

Other ideas include a crazy hack like this guy has proposed:
http://www.thebitguru.com/blog/view/246-Using%20custom%20settings%20in%20django%20tests

Surely others of you have had to ensure a given library isn't called
during testing or development (e.g. if you were implementing a payment
processor API, you wouldn't want to actually call that library during
tests). Am I just missing a totally obvious way to accomplish this?

Multi-table + Abstract Model Inheritance

[ringemup]

Is it possible for a model to inherit from an abstract model, which in
turn inherits from a non-abstract model?

Here's an example.  In this case, the reason for using multi-table
inheritance rather than an explicit one-to-one relation would be that
the office addresses would be editable via office child model inlines
from the Business model's admin screen (i.e. not requiring the
currently-impossible nested inlines.)

Would this work, or blow up in my face (in subtle-or-not ways)?

class Address(models.Model):
  line_1 = models.Char_field(max_length=128)
  ...

class Business(models.Model):
  name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
  ...

class Office(Address):
  business = models.ForeignKey(Business, related_name='')
  phone = models.CharField(max_length=30)
  ...
  class Meta:
abstract = True

class DataCenter(Office):
  bandwidth = models.PositiveIntegerField()
  ...

class CorporateOffice(Office):
  office_manager = models.ForeignKey('Employee')
  ...

class Employee(models.Model):
  employer = models.ForeignKey(Business)
  home_address = models.ForeignKey(Address)

Admin not using verbose_name on required fields

[geraldcor]

Hello all,

I am using the admin and fieldsets to display a change form as usual.
Some fields' labels, even with blank=True are being given the class
required and are not using the verbose_name argument either given via
keyword or positional usage. All fields that really are required
(blank=False) have this same problem. This brings up a few good
questions. Why are certain fields being called required when they are
not required and why are fields with the class required not using the
verbose_name?

http://dpaste.com/hold/244531/

Model snippet and full Admin for the model.

Thanks for any help.

Re: Deply with mod_wsgi

Well, my guess is that you should change the template responsible for
the page in your second picture and fix the  tag that displays
the graphic so that the source points to /simuladores/grafico/ instead
of /grafico/

Re: Deply with mod_wsgi

[Nuno Maltez]

At a glance: is your graphic dynamically generated and served by
Django? If so, shouldn't the the src of the img tag point
to /simuladores/grafico/ - or something under /simuladores where the
wsgi script can catch it - instead of /grafico ?

If your code is writing the image to the filesystem, is it writing it
to /var/www/django/grafico ?

Re: How do I troubleshoot mod_wsgi 404 admin issues

[Bill Freeman]

Well, you have to hope that behavior under the development server
gives you a clue where to put the prints, or breakpoints.  You might
find yourself patching a piece of middleware to look for the
troublesome path and only doing a set_trace() for it.  Then you can
single step your way into the url decoding code (another place to
potentially put the set_trace() for your case) until you are surprised
by the result.

Note that since this involves patching django itself, you may want to
do this in a virtualenv.

What is `sys.path` supposed to be?

[cool-RR]

Hello!

There's something that's bothering me:

When developing a Django application, what is `sys.path` supposed to
contain? The directory which contains the project, or the directory of
the project, or both?

What led me to this question is a failure when using
`urlresolvers.reverse`. It's giving me a `NoReverseMatch` error, and
it seems that the reason is that there are two different versions of
my view function; One with a `__module__` of `my_app.views` and one
with a `__module__` of `my_project.my_app.views`. Because of Python
weirdness, these two different versions of the same function are not
considered identical to each other:

http://bugs.python.org/issue9872


Please help...

testing app with multi db's one of which is read-only

[keith]

I have an app that accesses two different databases which are defined
in settings.py
one of them is read-only and its models all have managed=False, when i
run 'manage.py test', unsurprisingly i guess, i get an insufficient
privileges error when trying to create/destroy
the testing database on the read-only database.

is this a bug or and rfe?

is there a quick workaround? i'd love to be able to run tests on the
this app.

Sure they can. Check the docs for the subprocess module,

To get rid of it, yes you do. To replace it with something useful,
just define the __unicode__ method on the related model.

Re: Launching Background Processes from a View

[Brian Bouterse]

Yes, python multiprocessing can spawn background threads.  Just spawn the
thread and don't join() it.  You could also call things linux things like
nohup through the python process module.

Re: Launching Background Processes from a View

[Heath]

My eventual solution was to just rework the way my watcher scripts
execute. I now use celery and rabbitMQ, and let pyInotify send a new
job to any available worker. For my application, 20 or so workers is
fine and this can scale as needed.

I'm still looking for a definitive answer on whether  the built-in
process
modules cannot launch and detach a process in the background, (ala
"nohup   &" ) and return control to the view.

Thanks for the responses.

Re: Django and third party python apps, best practices for path locations?

[werefr0g]

 Hello,

I think you should use virtualenv for lot of reasons:

* it is easy to use
* you can even change you python interpreter according context without 
mixing accidentally libs from previous version, for example
* you can test if upgrading a library, module, app doesn't break your 
project (you can try to upgrade Django for example) non-regression

* you'll know precisely requirements of each project
* you can reproduce live server environment (current and future)

Comparing using or not using virtualenv, you'll spend more energy to 
"manually" manage libraries than using virtualenv each time.

Re: How do I troubleshoot mod_wsgi 404 admin issues

[Bill Freeman]

I think that I'd start by making a clone, on some development box,
run using the development server, but with SUB_SITE='perf/'.
The removes the most glaring difference between your development
and production versions.  If it fails there you have full recourse to
print statements and pdb.

That said, you could also try turning on DEBUG, temporarily, in the
production instance.  This will give you the friendly list of url patterns
tried, and what they were trying to match.  Hopefully.  And it might
just be obvious from there.

Re: Unit testing in django without using test client

You can use Python's unittest module to test any Python code (including Django 
code).

What is it about Django's test client or TestCase class that is a problem for 
you?

Hi there,

I've just realized that it's not a bug but a feature. The browsers
handle it correctly.

Thanks & Regards

Right, that broke:

Once you've got your Python version installed I would then:

1. Install PIP and virtualenv. 
2. Create a virtualenv for your project using the --no-site-packages flag.
3. Use PIP to install everything your project needs beyond that, including your 
Django version.

Here's the links: 
Python Package Index : pip 0.8.1
virtualenv — virtualenv v1.5 documentation

This I found useful:

how to replace "Congratulations on your first Django-powered page." with my home page

[perfecthills]

Have a website build on django, i desire to transfer the website to a
new domain, i already created the application and even website at
webfaction, i have even copied the entire code of the previous site to
the ftp of the new website iwant. well being new, all i get is


It worked!
Congratulations on your first Django-powered page.

Of course, you haven't actually done any work yet. Here's what to do
next:

* If you plan to use a database, edit the DATABASES setting in
myproject/settings.py.
* Start your first app by running python myproject/manage.py
startapp [appname].

You're seeing this message because you have DEBUG = True in your
Django settings file and you haven't configured any URLs. Get to work!


can someone suggest what else i need to do.
thanx

Sorry I can't help you much (never happened to me) but:

a) are you sure it's not beautifulsoup that's replacing your &?

b) shouldn't they be really separated by "&"? Using & will cause
validation errors:

Re: virtualenv used with mod_wsgi

[Graham Dumpleton]

Then that directory isn't where it is installed, or the permissions on
your directories are such that user that Apache runs as can't read
that directory. Post a 'ls -las' directory listing of your site-
packages directory and check that from that directory up to your home
directory is readable to others.

Also move that sys.path.append() to before you import
django.core.handlers.wsgi. This will not solve the problem, but you
are updating it after everything else, which is a bit weird. Only
works because Django only requires it the first time a request
arrives.

Protobuff model memcaching

[burg]

Hi everybody,
Recently I've been trying to migrate from AppEngine-Patch (with
Appengine models) into django-nonrel.

In the past, I've been using Protobufs serialization for memcache as
suggested by Nick here http://blog.notdot.net/2009/9/Efficient-model-memcaching
- which seemed to be very efficient and stable (unlike json
serializers of django.core)

However Model Protobuf caching in Appengine has some code already
implemented in the AppEngine library. Is there some easy way to pick
Protobuf serialization instead of python Pickle to achieve the same
with Django's native Model ?
