Best way to upload and resize image?

[frocco]

Hi All,
In the admin, I am using imageField to upload an image.
I install PIL and am overriding the save to create a thumbnail.
The problem I am having is the original upload is resized.
I want to keep the original and thumbnail, so I can allow the users to 
click and zoom the image.

Is there a better way to do this in django?
I thought about adding another imagefield and just resize that one.
But the user would have to select the same image file twice.

On another note, I just purchased PyCharm and am finding it pretty nice.

Django/Python vs Grails/Groovy

[tapan pandita]

Hey Guys,

We have an initial version of our product ready on Grails. However, before 
we move forward, we want to make a call between using Django or Grails. The 
product is basically an API and some templating. The team comprises of 
people who are comfortable with both frameworks and can easily make the 
switch from one to the other. Based on the research I've done online, I 
feel both frameworks are essentially the same. Groovy is just about as easy 
to develop in as python and ecosystem-wise Java doesn't have any advantage 
over Python (at least as far as the web is concerned). Also, Grails can do 
pretty much everything that Django can do (including schema migrations now 
which people seem to complain about earlier). Personally, I am a django guy 
and haven't developed a lot in Grails (just basic stuff). What would be 
some compelling arguments to switch to Django over grails or should we 
stick with grails?

Field pre-load hook?

[Matt Barry]

Hi,

I'm creating a model from an external database that has some encrypted 
columns.  Initially I was thinking of creating a custom field type:

class EncryptedField(models.Field):
  def db_type(self, connection): 
return 'TEXT'
  def pre_save(self, model, add):
return encrypt(getattr(model, self.attname))

..but it doesn't seem there are any hooks to decrypt the data on the 
loading side.  Am I missing anything, or is there a better way to do this 
sort of thing?

Thanks,
Matt

"Principle of least privilege" in accessing a DB from an app

[Isaac Perez]

Hi guys,

I'm creating a new app and I'd like to know how would be the best way to 
implement the principle of least privilege.
At the moment the DB has 5 users:

   - 1 is the root user for the DB (which I don't want it to be used by the 
   webapp)
   - 1 has read access to the data fields
   - 1 has write access to the data fields
   - 1 has read access to the users table
   - 1  has write access to the users table

What I intend to achieve is that if in any occasion we've got a sql 
injection for whatever the reason, the access to the DB from the app form 
will be as limited as possible.

If using python directly I would create a DB connection for each 
functionality so they use the right DB user and have the right permissions.

In Django, though, as you have to configure the default DB access in the 
settings and it has to sync, etc... I'm not sure what will be the best way 
to implement that splitting of privileges.

I've configured the 5 connections in the settings but not sure how to best 
use them for the different functions of authenticate, read and write from 
the DB.

Any ideas?


Thanks,
Isaac

Consider that you might have a number of apps in your project. As an 
experienced Django dev you would probably keep your separate apps nicely 
segregated so they can be re-used in multiple projects without any 
integration overhead. That means the static files for such apps really 
must stay with the apps - or management and deployment gets too hard.


So your project has a few apps and each has its own static files. When 
you deploy all you need to do is add the app static dir to the 
settings.STATICFILES_DIRS list and run collectstatic.


Apache or whatever webserver you use only needs a simple directive to 
serve them from STATIC_ROOT.


It is very nice.

Essentially, yes. To the best of my knowledge, there haven't been any major
changes to the Django Book since it was originally published. One of the
reasons for releasing the book as open source was to allow (and encourage)
the community to submit updates. I'm pretty certain that there weren't that
many updates prior to the book source being put on GitHub, so the Github
commit history will show you all the changes that have been made.

If you do go through the release notes for 1.1,  1.2, 1.3 and 1.4, you
shouldn't find *that* many backwards incompatibilities. Off the top of my
head, I can only think of a few items that would make a significant
difference to the content of the Django book:

 * Import syntax at the top of urls.py
 * Quoting syntax in {% url %} tags
 * The method of installing admin urls
 * Allowing for CSRF in forms

There have been other backwards incompatibilities, but they tend to be
fairly esoteric edge cases; there have also been lots of additional
features, which means the current content of the Django book may not
reflect best practice (e.g., the syntax of {% if %} clauses in templates).
However, as a project, we've been strict about backwards compatibility, so
there shouldn't be much that doesn't work *at all*.

That said, we would certainly welcome any contributions to help get the
Django Book up to date, reflecting current best practice, and ironing out
the incompatibilities that have emerged over time.

Yours,
Russ Magee %-)

Yea, hooking up slug-name to folder-name is brittle - if you're just
reading the binary contents of files and serving them, you could do it
in a django view, but you're probably better off doing it directly
through apache - there's no reason to use Django for something its not
good as :) - I think this really depends on how much these 'static'
html pages you're serving need other components of your django app -
if they're completely separate, then they're probably better off being
served simply as static files through apache :)

What I have done in the past is read template files off disk through
some name in the URL .. so like http://foo.com/home looks into a
directory, looks for home.html, and renders the template .. if you do
need to nest these static html files of yours into a django template
that has some other logic, I think this is a perfectly fine logic to
use and has worked well for me .. if you just need to serve the binary
files off disk though, you're probably better off just using apache to
serve them ...

Hope that makes sense / helps ..

And then there are jetstrap.com and boottheme.com which help creating

Chrome and Firefox show cleaned up HTML in firebug/web inspector. In the case 
of a bad MIME type, it treats it as text, and wraps everything in HTML for 
displaying. When people say to check the Content-Type header, you should look 
in the network tab.

Re: How do I call a query set from views.py

[Amirouche Boubekki]

Héllo frocco,

>

Use classmethod
decoratorto
achieve that, like this:

@classmethod
def get_categories(cls):
return cls.objects.filter(category_class='sales')

I replaced self by cls since the first argument is now the class. Also the
filter query is not correct, you have to use
exclude
.

Mind the fact that this is not very django way of doing queries, using
class methods or similar DAO pattern is not the most often used method to
do querying with ORMs (AFAIK). Most of the time queries are inlined in the
view or other code like this:

def view(request):
queryset = Category.objects.exclude(category_class='sales')
context = Context({'title': 'Search', 'form': form, 'data': data})
return render_to_response('index.html', context)

If you use very often this queryset you might want to create a manager for
it, read the documentation regarding
managers
.

How do I call a query set from views.py

[frocco]

in models.py

def get_categories(self):

in views.py

data = Category.get_categories()
 context = Context({'title': 'Search', 'form': form, 'data': data})
return render_to_response('index.html', context)
this is not working.

Status of open sourced Django Book?

[Skip Montanaro]

I was encouraged to see that the Django Book authors had open-sourced the 
book.  I cloned the git repo and built it.  I've been working my way 
through the online book and thought the open source content might have some 
updates, but after comparing a couple chapters (intro and Chapter 11), it 
seems that perhaps nothing has been updated.

Did I just make too small a comparison?  Are the various versions' release 
notes the only places to find summaries of what's changed since the book 
was written (for 1.1)?

Thanks,

Skip Montanaro

I'm going to code a kind of calendar too. I'm still thinking on a good approach
for the recurring appointments at the data model level. Are you using any app
for that? Or did you define your own data model?

You can code that by your own, creating an app for managing permissions whose
model is related to User model. Permissions model might contain the different
types of roles and the possible actions to.

Anyway, you already have Django Guardian, as said above. It allows you to
define easily permissions for a model (adding them to *Meta* class) and assign
them for any user/group.

Re: Django Roles/Permissions

[Amirouche]

Héllo Chung,

Did you have a look at https://github.com/lukaszb/django-guardian#usage it 
adds user permissions for objects, I don't know how it works with a Django 
1.5 though.

Re: Project Structure - Lots of scattered custom views

Héllo again,

I don't see where Django makes things easier for you at all. Why no just 
use static files and include a menu via Javascript and serve all the thing 
like static files instead of using Django ?
