Re: Live server tests from cron

[Drew Ferguson]

Hi 

I don't know anything about selenium.

However, from what you are describing - trying to run an application from
cron that requires an Xserver - is problematic i.e. there is generally no
Xserver available that can be used so your "DISPLAY=:0.0" essentially has
no effect.

To get round this, you may need to launch an X server whenever your cron
job kicks off. You can do this by creating a virtual X server using Xvfb.
In the past I have used the script xvfb-run to achieve this; this article
pointed the way

http://www.flexthinker.com/2009/09/building-a-flex-project-with-maven-using-hudson-on-centos/

If you think this might be the way to go, feel free to contact me off list
as it has nothing really to do with django.

Re: django windows user

[Aaron C. de Bruyn]

Google is your friend.

The first tutorial that came up when I searched for 'ssh for windows users'
was this site:
http://support.suso.com/supki/SSH_Tutorial_for_Windows

Do you have an existing Linux server at your house or with a hosting
provider?

If managing a Linux server is too steep of a learning curve, there are
several providers out there that will do that for you and provide you a
simple way to deploy your application.

A good resource is Django Hosting: http://djangohosting.com/

Each provider has different requirements for 'automagically' deploying your
site.  Some use 'requirements.txt' file or a 'Procfile'.

Some people find Heroku easy and cheap for deploying small test
applications: https://www.heroku.com/

If you have specific questions, please ask them and the community would be
glad to assist.

Live server tests from cron

[Larry Martell]

I have some tests that use LiveServerTestCase and selenium. When I run
them from the command line they work fine. But I want to run them from
cron. I know I need to use pyvirtualdisplay, but I can't seem to get
it to work.

I have this in my test:

from pyvirtualdisplay import Display

@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
#initialize HIDDEN display
display = Display(visible=0, size=(800, 600))
display.start()

cls.selenium = WebDriver()
super(EventsTableTestLive, cls).setUpClass()

But it fails with:

WebDriverException: Message: 'The browser appears to have exited
before we could connect. The output was: Error: cannot open display:
:1024\n'

Where the display number is different each time. Googling this, I saw
that I needed to add something like this to the script I run from cron
that invokes the tests:

export DISPLAY=:0.0
xhost +

But that seems to have had no effect at all. This question seems to
have been asked a lot, but none of the answers I saw on SO or other
sites worked for me (none of them were using django).

Anyone here run LiveServerTestCase selenium tests from cron?

Thanks!

Re: Newbie: do I need to upload in order to access data?

[Nigel Legg]

The file is uploaded - ie it is copied onto the server drive.
I don't think you can do stuff client side with Django - beyond my
knowledge.

Re: Adding YouTube video id to url

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Sorted. I got owned by regex :-/

In urls.py, it should be:

url(r'^watch/(?P[\w{}.-]{1,40})/$', 'find_music.views.watch',
name='watch'),

(see
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15951948/django-url-for-40-characters-alphanumeric

Thanks.

Adding YouTube video id to url

[Sithembewena Lloyd Dube]

Hi,

I am using the YouTube API to fetch video data and display it on a web
page. As part of the html template I have an anchor tag with an href
directing to my Django 1.5 app. as follows:



The url definition in urls.py is as follows:

url(r'^(?P\w+)$', 'find_music.views.watch', name='watch'),

When I load the page, I get a NoReverseMatch exception as follows:

Reverse for 'watch' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments
'{u'video_id': 'D-dNA0NwLSw'}' not found.


What could I be missing?

Thanks.

Re: Django Calendar App Just Like Google Calendar

[Margie Roswell]

Does anyone have a module available that can do a calendar?

The winter thread below involved a whole bunch of coding-from scratch.

I'm not yet a super-coder... (I do have coding skillsets) and I'm just
learning django, and python. I figure I'll learn django best if I have a
real project; And the real project I have in mind would involve promoting
potluck meals. So event listings, and calendar display would be great. Also
a mapping component (type in an address, get back a map that displays with
the event detail page)

I'd like to start from as much already-available code as I can.

I like the idea, described below of:
"Tastypie makes it really easy to talk json to...backbone and plotting the
appointments in fullcalendar..."

and wow, that sample fullcalendar page looks terrific:
http://blog.shinetech.com/2011/08/05/building-a-shared-calendar-with-backbone-js-and-fullcalendar-a-step-by-step-tutorial/

but honestly, I'll do best to start with a working repo (events,
calendar, address mapping)

(It makes me wonder if anyone has wrapped up a whole bunch of sample django
apps, for easy reuse in general.)

django ajax runtime error - URL doesn't end in slash

[Robin Lery]

I am practicing from a tutorial where I have reached to create a search box
with jquery and ajax. Every thing is going good, except, when i press any
key in the search, I get an error,

RuntimeError at /articles/search You called this URL via POST, but the URL
doesn't end in a slash and you have APPEND_SLASH set. Django can't redirect
to the slash URL while maintaining POST data. Change your form to point to
localhost:8000/articles/search/ (note the trailing slash), or set
APPEND_SLASH=False in your Django settings.

I checked for "/" in my code, but its there. Don't know what's going on.
Please help.

application's urls.py:

url(r'^search/$', 'article.views.search_title'),)

views.py:

def search_title(request):
if request.method == "POST":
search_text = request.POST['search_text']
else:
search_text = ''

articles = Article.objects.filter(title__contains=search_text)

return render_to_response('ajax_search.html', {'article': article})

I'm using jquery version: jquery-2.0.0.min.js

ajax.js:

$(function(){

$('#search').keyup(function() {

$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '/articles/search/',
data: {
'search_text' : $('#search').val(),
'csrfmiddlewaretoken' :
$("input[name=csrfmiddlewaretoken]").val()
},
success: searchSuccess,
dataType: 'html'
});

});
});
function searchSuccess(data, textStatus, jqXHR){
$('#search-results').html(data);}

And even when I inspect the ajax.js, in the last line

$('#search-results').html(data);

It reads it as:

$('#search-results').html(date);

Please help me somebody. Thank you.

Re: Newbie: do I need to upload in order to access data?

[Bob Aalsma]

Thanks Nigel, this looks very promising ;)

If I interpret your text correctly, this is based on the upload/save 
example I mentioned.
I'm really interested in the meaning of parts your closing paragraph:

   - "This saves the file in 'media/documents/2013/08/10/datafile.csv'." - 
   I think this means the contents of the file is copied from the user disk to 
   my disk, right? 
   - "pointing them to the correct directory and file." - could I not 
   simply point to the *original* directory and file (on the user's 
   machine) and read the contents from that location?

Bob

Re: Newbie: do I need to upload in order to access data?

[Nigel Legg]

I've based my process a minimal file upload - I think based on the answer
to the link above.  I use:
models.py:
class Document(models.Model):
docfile = models.FileField(upload_to='documents/%Y/%m/%d')

views.py:
def list(request):
# Handle file uploadf
if request.method == 'POST':
form = DocumentForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
newdoc = Document(docfile = request.FILES['docfile'])
newdoc.save()

# Redirect to the document list after POST
return
HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('myproject.myapp.views.list'))
else:
form = DocumentForm() # A empty, unbound form

# Load documents for the list page
documents = Document.objects.all()

# Render list page with the documents and the form
return render_to_response(
'myapp/list.html',
{'documents': documents, 'form': form},
context_instance=RequestContext(request)
)

forms.py:
class DocumentForm(forms.Form):
docfile = forms.FileField(
label='Select a file',
help_text='max. 42 megabytes'
)

This saves the file in 'media/documents/2013/08/10/datafile.csv'.  You can
then access this using the normal open() and read() functions, pointing
them to the correct directory and file.  As far as I can see, the data
remains in the file you upload, but the location and name are stored in the
database - in this case, "documents/2013/10/08/datafile.csv".

Hope this helps

Nigel Legg

I think in the your views you are trying to save it under the formsets, try
to save the formsets under the form to save all the required rows.

Newbie: do I need to upload in order to access data?

[Bob Aalsma]

Hi,

I'm trying to achieve the following:

   - user indicates a file on his/her machine 
   - the program opens the file, reads the data and acts on that


So far, I can find examples of indicating the file on the user's machine, 
but this is always combined with saving to database (which I don't want); 
the clearest example I could find 
is 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5871730/need-a-minimal-django-file-upload-example

Question 1: is it really necessary to store the data in my database?

If not, I've not been able to find how to actually open and read the file.
I've been trying out variations on reading, based on what I could find in 
the Tutorials and Managing files 
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/files/ ) but I don't seem to 
understand how to actually find the path and filename the user would have 
indicated. I seem to get completely lost in FileField and FieldFile and 
connected methods 

Question 2: how do I find the indicated path and filename from the user?

Bob

how to make distinct and order_by work together

[doniyor]

I am really stuck in this problem for a while. this is really challenging 
for me. .. tough one... 

i have two models. Location and Rate. 

each location has rates, possibly multiple rates.. let me give you my 
models: 

class Location(models.Model):
  name = models.TextField()
  adres = models.TextField()
class Rate(models.Model):
  location = models.ForeignKey(Location,related_name='locations_rate')
  rate = models.IntegerField(max_length=2)

the case is: 

I am trying to write the sort function which is called when user in resultpage 
the result items sorts e.g. by rate. then the results should be sorted 
ascendingly ordered by rate. 

I tried this: 

locations = 
Location.objects.filter(**s_kwargs).order_by('-locations_rate__rate')

but this is giving me duplicate items. then i tried this: locations = 
Location.objects.filter(**s_kwargs).distinct('id').order_by('-locations_rate__rate')

but i am getting error message saying this wont work as i read in every forum. 
what can i do so that i can sort the items ordering by rates and keeping them 
distinct set? 


please help me

Re: How can I order my list based on a field in a different table?

[Eric Cheung]

1) The model Word does not have the votes field, you cannot order the field 
it's not possessed.

2) You have to build a relation between the models first, check the 
relationships from Django Doc

I'm trying to get a custom user model to work with the built-in admin app, 
based on the sample code in the documentation 
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/auth/customizing/#auth-custom-user

Here is my code:

https://gist.github.com/anonymous/91f2c30bdc48a4ca3248

I either get a 

FieldError at /
> Unknown field(s) (date_created) specified for UserAccount
>

or 

ImproperlyConfigured at /
> 'SpcUserAdmin.fieldsets[1][1]['fields']' refers to field 'is_admin' that 
> is missing from the form.
>


When I remove date_created form the field list of the meta class in 
UserCreationForm.

I'm sure there is a small and stupid error on my side, but I just can't 
spot it... HELP :-)

Re: problem with deploying django using mod wsgi

Is your form (on page /mice/search_mice/) submitting to

/mice/search

or

/search

Check your form element in the html document. Is it pointing to the right 
URL?

Maybe check your WSGIScriptAlias setting. Maybe verify your DocumentRoot 
setting.

You might also want to check the request and response using a tool like 
HttpFox
