Re: Hidden rows elements also visible on list filters

[rahul jain]

Yes I am referring to django admin list filter, one on the side.


class Admin(model.Admin):

list_filter = (column1, column2)


so for instance column1 has 6 values (a, b,b,b,c,e). Then list filter shows
a,b, c,e.

like this

By column1

show all
a
b
c
e

Now if i hide some rows based on the logged in user and reduce the number of
queries to  4 values (a,c).
But instead what i see is this same as with no hidden rows ie.

By column1

show all
a
b
c
e

The expected result which I would like to see is this

By column1

show all
a
c

Please let me know how to solve this problem.

Thanks.

RJ

Re: running a django app, help please?

[Amanjeev Sethi]

I think the basic tutorial (
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial01/) talks about apps:

Projects vs. apps

What's the difference between a project and an app? An app is a Web
application that does something -- e.g., a Weblog system, a database of
public records or a simple poll app. A project is a collection of
configuration and apps for a particular Web site. A project can contain
multiple apps. An app can be in multiple projects.

How do I override default behaviour for foreign keys in an inline formset?

[King]

I want to do something like this...
http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/db03fa90a14ecc6a
...but unfortunately there was no reply to this particular posting.
I've found other posts on the web of people looking for the same sort
of solution, and have not been able to find any helpful answers, so I
was hoping someone here could clear this up.

For example, let's say I had an app that kept a list of books for each
user like this:

class BookList(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
book = models.ForeignKey(Book)

class Book(models.Model):
author = models.ForeignKey(Author)
name = models.CharField(max_length=300)

class Author(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=300)

I had thought that to generate a bunch of forms for BookList (so that
the current user could for example, enter in all of the books that
they've read on a single page), I would use an inlineformset like so:

BookListFormSet = inlineformset_factory(User, BookList)
booklist_formset = BookListFormSet(instance=currentUser)

However, the resulting formset I get results in a dropdown menu for
each book field in the forms, but I don't want that. I want two
TextInput widgets in the form such that the user can type out:
   Alice in Wonderland
   Lewis Carroll
and if some other user has already added "Alice in Wonderland" to
their book list, then BookList.book will just point to that book.  BUT
if this is the first user to add "Alice in Wonderland" to their book
list, I want the form to create a brand new row in the Book table (and
a brand new row in Author if there is no "Lewis Carroll" books yet
either).

I'm new to Django, so maybe the solution is obvious to many.  But like
I said, I'm finding lots of people asking this question, but without
any good answers posted.

If someone could please provide a detailed solution I would very much
appreciate it, and I imagine others would as well.

Thanks in advance.  If any part of what I'm asking isn't clear, don't
hesitate to ask me about it.

running a django app, help please?

[raj]

I'm sort of confused with the django app system.
I own a free hosting, by alwaysdata.net (just to learn the django
stuff), and it says that I can make an app using the following line:
python mysite/manage.py startapp [appname]

When reading the django book (at the djangobook.com), it never talks
about app's really. What I want to know is what is the point of apps,
and how do you use them? Thank you.

Re: Is there an HTML editor that's Django-aware

[AJ]

Thanks a lot Simon. This is probably OT:

That was helpful but I thought I could dive in again with Vim and failed (at
least for now).

You see, I am now used to some of the things in textmate:

* quick file switching. Textmate has Cmd+T and type the file name for quick
switching
* a project. I found the project plugin but still could not figure out the
usage.

I am playing with NERDTree right now. I think there should be a plugin for
quick file switching. I do need to know some more shortcuts for NERDTree to
quickly open files and bookmark them.

I just installed the project-plugin too
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=69
but again, still have to deal with the learning curve.

Having complained enough, I still think that if I do not give up this time,
I will be better off with this editor as my primary.

Best,
AJ

NoReverseMatch while rendering

[Alexandra]

I got the following TemplateSyntaxError:

Caught NoReverseMatch while rendering: Reverse for 'profile_detail'
with arguments '('',)' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.

The exact line causing the issue is the following in my
view_phone.html template file:

{% blocktrans %}added by{% endblocktrans %} {{ phone.adder }}
{% blocktrans %}on{% endblocktrans %} {{ phone.added|date }}

Has anyone seen this before? My urls.py seem to be configured properly
etc. Can't seem to figure this one out.

Growlf,

Thanks for your input on this. Really appreciate it and I am sorry for
my delayed response - I completely missed your reply until today.

> documentation to the project rather than home-rolling yet another

I agree with you on this. Seems a little foolish to attempt to
reinvent the wheel when there are plenty of options about.

I ended up ditching fiber pretty quickly due to lack of documentation
and ended up choosing FeinCMS, which has been great, although lacking
in some areas - either that or my knowledge/understanding of the docs
is lacking to the point where I am coming to a grinding halt with the
MPTT side of things.

Anyway, cheers again for your response.

Dave

Re: Section 508 compliance for Django for grant application

[Lisabeth]

Thank you. That was a very satisfying link to forward internally as I
have been arguing exactly the same thing: that Django is transparent
to the end user and the burden of 508 compliance applies to the web
pages that are served.

So far, no one has been swayed by that argument.

I am still hoping that someone else has been forced to do this and is
willing to share advice on how they handled it. The fact that Django
is not the right piece of the puzzle to be inspecting for
accessibility compliance makes it more difficult to fill out the
form.

I would push the atomic updates to the database or use a queue with a single

Section 508 compliance for Django for grant application

[Lisabeth]

Hello,

I'm part of a bioinformatics team at a small, non-profit biomedical
research institute (Seattle BioMed). We are working on a grant
application that includes Django as we are excited about getting into
python and the BioPython module.

However, to include this technology in the grant, we must assert its
section 508 (accessibility) compliance. Specifically, our IT director
is looking for the "VPAT".  I have found references to people
asserting that it is compliant, but no real resources to assist in
completing the required documentation.

Has anybody got any relevant experience in completing section 508
compliance for Django?  Perhaps someone else has competed for a grant

for Django?  There is the possibility of filling out the compliance
form and certifying it ourselves but I think there is a stigma about
that.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for Class Base Views intro (not Generic Class Base Views!)

[Mateusz Harasymczuk]

I am looking for a Class Base Views introduction or tutorial.
I have googled the web, and all I was able to find was the Generic Class 
Base Views.

There were only a few examples of non generic views, however the code was to 
fuzzy.

Django generally has a superb documentation, but this part is not so good.

Q1. Or maybe I am wrong and there is no Class Based Views beside the Generic 
ones?

I want to move my function based views to the classes.
I would like to make them RESTful with login_required decorator for some of 
them:

I have this:

import re

from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from django.utils.decorators import method_decorator
from django.views.generic.base import TemplateView

nonalpha_re = re.compile('[^A-Z]')


class BaseView(TemplateView):
""" Subclass this and add GET / POST / etc methods. """
allowed_methods = ('GET', 'PUT', 'POST', 'DELETE', 'HEAD', 'OPTIONS')
context_object_name = "object"

def __call__(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
""" """
method = nonalpha_re.sub('', request.method.upper())

if not method in self.allowed_methods or not hasattr(self, method):
return self.http_method_not_allowed(request, *args, **kwargs)

return getattr(self, method)(request, *args, **kwargs)



class AuthenticatedView(BaseView):
""" Require login """

@method_decorator(login_required)
def dispatch(self, *args, **kwargs):
return super(BaseView, self).dispatch(*args, **kwargs)

 
and then in my views.py


class ContractView(AuthenticatedView):
template_name = "crm/contract/index.html"

def GET(request, id):
c = get_object_or_404(Contract, id=id)
return {"contract": c}

and so on...

Q2. Am I thinking right?
Q3. How to make prettier JSON dumps?

for example if I set ContractView.mimetype = 'application/json'
I would like to render returned value from GET method and send it to browser 
as a JSON string instead of directing it to the template.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely

Matt Harasymczuk

Yeah. That was the post I was thinking about. For some reason I

migrations should be a part of a full-stack framework like django
(south is the first app I install in a new project). They might as

Django DATETIME_FORMAT Localization

[jrs_66]

Hi,

Despite the high likelihood that I'll be chewed out as an ignoramus
who can't seem to read docs (I have... for about a day), I'm going to
try to ask a seemingly basic question (without even posting my model;)

I'm using the Django 1.2 enhanced localization feature to setup
formatting constants.  This works fine and my tree looks like this-

myapp->formats->en->formats.py

In this file, I have a constant  DATETIME_FORMAT = "n/j/Y"

I have a Japanese file

myapp->formats->en->formats.py

In this file, I have a constant  DATETIME_FORMAT = "Y/n/j"

This all works great for my templating puposes!  Problem is that I
need to know this mask in a view.  Trying to use
settings.DATETIME_FORMAT producing something completely wrong... "N j,
Y, P"... so that's not the answer.

How can I do something like strptime(request.POST["start-date"],
mycurrent_DATETIME_FORMAT)... There's got to be an undocumented way of
referencing the constant currently being used?

Any help would be appreciated.

One dedicated db connection per user?

[Gerv Markham]

Hi everyone,

Top-level question: I want to have a database connection per
authenticated user, because each has their own username and password
at the database level. Django by default seems geared up either for 1
or a small, set number of databases (and therefore connections). What
is the best way to do this?

More details:

I'm actually using LDAP as my back-end, and the app is for viewing and
changing data in an LDAP directory. My security model says that the
directory does all the access control, and the Django app accesses it
only with the permissions of the current user. So I need to bind to
the directory as the current user, and then use that connection for
all operations.

I have discovered django-ldapdb , which reflects LDAP data as Django models
(very cool) by writing a database backend to interface with the
directory. But its way of doing things assumes you are logged into the
directory with a "super-user" style account, defined in the config,
all the time.

I've also discovered django-auth-ldap  which allows me to authenticate against the
directory and will give me a connection object (stored as
request.user.ldap_user.connection) which is correctly logged in - but
I can't see how to take that connection object and use it for all
subsequent interactions with the directory. Can I do this at the db
router level? How can my db router see the User object so it can
return the right answer?

Thanks for any pointers anyone can provide! :-)

South migration for fixtures

[Amit Sethi]

Hi all , I might be wrong with some of the concepts as I am new to
south. I am using south to migrate some fixture data for a django app.
Also something worth noting is I am bringing south new into the django
app it was not part of installed apps till now . So the workflow I
have followed till now is

run syncdb to install south
create a fake initial migration using convert_to_south command
create the actual schema migration script for my app using --auto
create a data migration script with a forward function for the added field

run python manage.py migrate myapp

Now obviously I get an error related to fixtures not getting installed
. Because I haven't actually changed the data on my fixtures how can I
do that(Also when should I do that) . My confusion also is that if I
dump data now to create new fixtures I will be creating trouble for my
collaborators since when they run syncdb to install south
in the end of syncdb when fixtures are installed they will
have problems because of the change in fixtures ??

It may look correct, but if you notice, right in the start of the
entire script, I get the letter "u", this happens when I render
anything. I always get this "u" right in the beginning of the output!
I don't know why this is happening. Please help?

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/forms/api/#dynamic-initial-values

IIRC, this should be enough.

As a side note, you'd better use tuples than lists for your choices -
at least for the "value, label" pairs which are semantically tuples,
and possibly for the choices list itself but then it's more of a micro-
optimisation (tuples are lest costly than lists).

Surprisingly enough, it took me a couple weeks realizing I could as
well just read the source code when I started working on / with oss.

wrt/ web dev, I think the most important thing to learn is the HTTP
protocol itself (and a couple others related specs like cookies etc).
Once you get it, lot of things in Django (or any other decent web
framework) starts to make sense, and it's easier to know what to look
for in the doc.

(ok, I assume you already have a decent knowledge of things like SQL,
HTML, text processing, Python etc).

Re: Form Validation - Redisplay With Error

[Ndungi Kyalo]

Am trying to pre-select a radio button created with the django.forms library
:

vote = forms.ChoiceField(
widget = forms.RadioSelect(),
choices = [
['a', 'i liked it'],
['b', 'i did not like it']
],
required=True
)

How would I go about getting the 'a' choice pre-selected on an unbound form
?

Re: Form Validation - Redisplay With Error

[Robin]

Because that would be too easy? ;)  Sincere thanks, Bruno.  A lot of
this is new to me...python, Django, web dev, and even open source.
Didn't even think of that!  There's so much to learn, it can be
overwhelming.  Thank you again, I'll have a look through the code
today.

Master/detail in the admin

[Thomas Weholt]

I've googled and looked at the docs, but haven't found anything
related to this scenario:

I got a master/detail model, defined like so:

class Master(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=100)

def details_url(self):
return 'Details'
 self.content_object)
details_url.short_description = 'Link to details'
details_url.allow_tags = True

class Detail(models.Model):
master = models.ForeignKey(Master)
details = models.TextField()

They're exposed in the admin using admin.py. My question is this:

1) How can I make the details_url property in the Master-model so that
when exposed in the admin.py a user can click it and go the listing of
details and only see details related to that instance of Master-model?
2) If this can only be done using a custom view, how do I get the view
to produce a page looking like the rest of the admin? I know I can use
the same template code as the admin, but is there a faster way to
produce for instance listings like the details in my case? Generic
views/classes?
3) Adding Master to list_filter for the detailsAdmin-class is not
possible due to the amount of Master-records. Or is it ...? And even
if it was possible, how can I set filters from another page, like if I
click a link in the change_list for Master-model going to the Details
change_list, how can I set the filtering to be set to a specific
instance of a Master model?

In short; all I want is the have the change_list filtered to only show
details related to a specific master-record and reuse as much of the
admin-code/featurebase as possible.

Re: UK-based Django Host?

[Nan]

Well, I was sort of hoping someone had found a Webfaction equivalent
somewhere on the other side of the pond.  ;-)

Rackspace managed cloud is way out of our price range, and we
really only need resources on the level of a large shared or smallish
VPS plan.

Then have a look at Rackspace cloud managed options - I think that's
the closest you're going to get without finding an individual /

Re: Parsing an XML feed using ElementTree

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for all your suggestions. I read up on gzip and urllib and also
learned in the process that I could use urllib2 as its the latest form of
that library.

Herewith my solution: I don't know how elegant it is, but it works just
fine.

def get_contests():
 url = '
http://xml.matchbook.com/xmlfeed/feed?sport-id=&vendor=TEST&sport-name=&short-name=Po
'
 req = urllib2.Request(url)
 req.add_header('accept-encoding','gzip/deflate')
 opener = urllib2.build_opener()
 response = opener.open(req)
 compressed_data = response.read()
 compressed_stream = StringIO.StringIO(compressed_data)
 gzipper = gzip.GzipFile(fileobj=compressed_stream)
 data = gzipper.read()
 current_path = os.path.realpath(MEDIA_ROOT + '/xml-files/d.xml')
 data_file = open(current_path, 'w')
 data_file.write(data)
 data_file.close()
 xml_data = ET.parse(open(current_path, 'r'))
 contest_list = []
 for contest_parent_node in xml_data.getiterator('contest'):
  contest = Contest()
  for contest_child_node in contest_parent_node:
   if (contest_child_node.tag == "name" and
contest_child_node.text is not None and contest_child_node.text != ""):
contest.name = contest_child_node.text
   if (contest_child_node.tag == "league" and
contest_child_node.text is not None and contest_child_node.text != ""):
   contest.league = contest_child_node.text
   if (contest_child_node.tag == "acro" and
contest_child_node.text is not None and contest_child_node.text != ""):
   contest.acro = contest_child_node.text
   if (contest_child_node.tag == "time" and
contest_child_node.text is not None and contest_child_node.text != ""):
   contest.time = contest_child_node.text
   if (contest_child_node.tag == "home" and

   contest.home = contest_child_node.text
   if (contest_child_node.tag == "away" and

   contest.away = contest_child_node.text
  contest_list.append(contest)
 try:
  os.remove(current_path)
 except:

 return contest_list

Many thanks!

Re: How do you organize your deployment enviroment

[Jonas Geiregat]

I'm just wondering how you could handle database changes.

Let's say you have a existing working project and the client asks for some 
changes.

These changes force you to create an extra table and modify some tables 
(models). 
On the development server I could modify the changes to the database and the 
models files myself.
But deploying these changes to the production server seems a bit harder to 
overcome without the fear of loosing your data.

I don't think the newly created models and database tables would form a 
problem. Simply running ./manage.py syncdb would create the table(s) for us 
without any problems. 
But what about tables (models) that are modified ?

How would you best handle such cases of deployment ?

Re: login with subdomains

[tom]

Hey Lucian,

that sounds solid. I will implement that together with an additional
auth backend. Looking into the option of subclassing remoteuserbackend
and adding the functionality there but also leverage the remote_user
META variable. That sounds to me like a very robust solution.
Thanks for describing in that detail!

I keep you posted about the final implementation.

regards, tom

Re: (extendable) social network plugin

[Leon van der Ree]

Thanks Matias,

I had the time to take a good look at django-social-auth and this was
the thing I was looking for. This looks great!

I will come back about the social-communication plugin, which is
capable of performing all kind of postings on social networks in a
unified way, in another post once I have some more time.

Regards
Leon

Should do the trick.

Re: Limit admin login domain?

[Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd]]

Yup, you can. But, you have to use multihost.py middleware. Google for
django multihost :)

(we had the exact same requirement, and this is how we resolved it. Also,
multihost is a billion times nicer than the sites framework that comes with
Django, imho).

Re: login with subdomains

[Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd]]

Hi OP,

To do this, you need to use what's known as a 'handoff'. This basically
means handing off an authenticated session to a different FQDN.

There are several ways you can do this, but I would recommend using the
following:

   - Create a receiver URL on each FQDN which can be handed off to (in this
   case whatever.* and www.*), called /handoff/(.*)
   - Create a secret string inside the settings file, which will be used to
   build a hash of the username and password.
   - From the originating site, generate a hash of the username and password
   (salted with the secret string), store this hash (along with the original
   username and password) in a cache server for 60 seconds, and redirect the
   user to the new domain on /handoff/insert_hash_here.
   - On the receiving site, extract the hash, and check the cache server to
   make sure it exists, and then re-authenticate the user manually using
   login() with the username and password extracted from the cache entry.

This is pretty much the industry standard way of doing things properly.
There are easier (and less secure) alternatives, but I would highly
recommend using this (it's certainly what we use anyway).

Re: login with subdomains

[Lucian Nicolescu]

You're right, it would be valid for all subdomains. Hmm ... I can't
see a solution without a hack. Eg: authenticate the user on
agileamp.com and at the same time do a AJAX request to the subdomain's
authentication clone.

This way the a cookie would be set only for the TLD (agileamp.com) and
for the subdomain (whatever.agileamp.com). The two sessions would be
different but I guess that's okay, right?

Now that I think of it it would be simpler to make the session global
and add the subdomain restriction to it. This way when the user visits
a subdomain the first thing you do is to check the restriction in the
session.

Let us know what you come up with!

Stuck at filtering/slicing

[Michel30]

Hello all,

I have the following model:

class Documentrevision(models.Model):
docrevid = models.AutoField(primary_key=True,
db_column='DocRevID')
documentid = models.ForeignKey(Document, db_column='DocumentID')
submitterid = models.ForeignKey('Author', db_column='SubmitterID')
documenttitle = models.CharField(max_length=765,
db_column='DocumentTitle')
publicationinfo = models.TextField(db_column='PublicationInfo',
blank=True)
versionnumber = models.IntegerField(db_column='VersionNumber')
abstract = models.TextField(db_column='Abstract', blank=True)
revisiondate = models.DateTimeField(null=True,
db_column='RevisionDate', blank=True)
timestamp = models.DateTimeField(db_column='TimeStamp')
obsolete = models.IntegerField(null=True, db_column='Obsolete',
blank=True)
keywords = models.CharField(max_length=720, db_column='Keywords',
blank=True)
note = models.TextField(db_column='Note', blank=True)
demanaged = models.IntegerField(null=True, db_column='Demanaged',
blank=True)

Now I want to retrieve all entries that match obsolete=0, then order
on revisiondate and docrevid and last get only the highest
versionnumber for each group of documentid.

I got this far:
found_entries =
Documentrevision.objects.filter(obsolete=0).order_by('-revisiondate','-
docrevid')

This gives me all versionnumbers though: I've been trying several ways
to slice, group , do for-loops and can't get it to work..
Any ideas are greatly appreciated :-)
Thanks

Re: login with subdomains

[tom]

well, I thought about this, but wouldn't then the session be valid for
test.agileamp.com as well as for test2.agileamp.com? I want to set the
session only for test.agileamp.com (the subdomain where the account
belongs to).

Synchronise what with what?

"It doesn't work" is utterly useless. What does it do? How does that differ 
from what you were expecting? What errors do you get?

Re: UK-based Django Host?

[Stuart MacKay]

I use a Linode 512 VPS hosted in London. So far it has been awesome.

Lisbon, Portugal


I know this question has been asked before, but the most recent thread
I can find in the archives is from 2007, and presumably the landscape
has changed since then.

I'm looking for a Webfaction-like host with servers in the UK.  It
needs to allow long-running processes, of course, and would ideally be
(like Webfaction) fully managed.  (We don't have the staff to keep a
server updated or tuned).  We need plenty of memory, shell access (of
course), and preferably mod_wsgi.

Does anyone have any recommendations of hosts they've worked with?

Thanks!
-Nan

Re: login with subdomains

[Lucian Nicolescu]

I think you can use the SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN and set it up to
".agileamp.com" (docs:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/sessions/#session-cookie-domain).

If you're that worried about latency then a cheap lowend vps maybe the
way. Both slicehost, Rackspace cloud and linode do
London based vps's or try tagadab. Or what about an amazon small
instance in Ireland? Or ovh in France or london?

For actual hardware have a look on http://www.lowenddedi.net/

"Once a node is parsed, its render method may be called any number of
times"
(http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/howto/custom-template-tags/
#thread-safety-considerations)

If you wan to make sure, just add a couple print statements (or better
use the logger) in the __init__ and render methods.

Why don't you just have a look at the code of the builtin auth
