Ahhh...  That sounds good.  Too easy, in fact.  I can't wait to give it a 
try!

Thanks!

Re: Newbie Stuck on Django Tutorial 3 - Django Template system

[Chou Sunny]

i had the same problem by just copying the text on the web, pasting on 
textedit, and saving it into html.
when i open html by Xcode, you will see extra lines, more than the text on 
the web.
simply re-edit html by Xcode, the problem is solved.

checkbox in Django

[dharmi patel]

Hi,

As I am a new for Django and I use Django for making web application.
My problem is:
I have product list and i have to select more than one product. once i have 
select the products. I have to compare those selected product but there are 
few criteria of comparison like compared by name , version ,release.
notes: product has number of packages and package has package name, 
version, release,.
In short the logic I have to implement is,  if i select 2 product and i 
will compare these 2 product by package version then they should display 
the all common packages of both product which have same packages with same 
version.


Can any one help me , how can i implement this logic?

Ok I did what you said and played around for a while and got it working! 
Thanks! Another issue I had which I think was the main one (as well as the 
namespace in my input) was that I needed to change my action to link to a 
url which validated my search view. I ended up just using 
/beacon/search/search_query/ but anything instead of search_query would 
have worked. This way Django runs through the search view no matter what 
page you are on. Ironically changing that also implemented my search 
function on the whole site because the form is in my base.html .

Seriously thanks for the help dude!

Re: django tut 01

[Glyn Jackson]

You need to be a little more detailed about your error. When you say "Can't 
access database sqlite3" are you referring to permissions? Please post your 
settings. 

In the mean, time check you have the correct read/write permissions on the 
directory.Try "sudo python manage.py syncdb" (notice the word sudo). If 
this works you don't have the correct permission setup.

I have tried hacking your code on top of one of my search pages, and
definitively managed to get it working once I added the name for the
input.

Without the name, the search view would otherwise just fall through and
I'd get something in the lines of the following error:

The view project.views.search didn't return an HttpResponse object.

I'd suggest maybe putting in a couple of debug print messages in your
view to figure out where your code ends-up in the end.

You're right as far as that goes, but note that OP is using a ModelForm: so 
there is an even easier method.

form = create_insp_m(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
insp = form.save()

that way they can get rid of all the stuff involving `cleaned_data`, and 
even the querying for the Pad object, as the ModelForm does it all already.

 Thanks for the response. I tried putting a name into the text input field

This is where your code is going wrong - you should not create a model
instance by passing positional arguments. The docs instruct you to use
kwargs, and then Django can assign to the correct fields.

Hence "of_pad" is of the correct type, it is just being applied to the
wrong field.

You can use kwargs, but it is much cleaner and less typing to use
Model.objects.create() as you can omit the subsequent save() as
create() creates valid objects (they have pks).

Cheers

Tom

Getting the "Real" Foreign Key from a ModelForm

[llanitedave]

This is my first attempt at a work Django Application since the tutorial, 
so my odds of missing something obvious are pretty high.  Still, I've been 
as far as I can in the documentation, and I can't find anything that 
addresses this.  Using Python 2.7 and Django 1.6.5, in a ModelForm 
containing a foreign key, rather than returning the key value itself the 
form returns an object that represents the __unicode__(self) value of the 
model.  So it isn't an integer of a string, and I get a TypeError when I 
try to save it.

class Pad_info(models.Model):

site_id = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True)
name = models.CharField('Pad Location', max_length=40, unique=True)
...
(irrelevant fields snipped...)
   


def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s, %s' % (self.site_id, self.name)

def ID(self):
return self.site_id

class Meta:
db_table = 'pad_info'
verbose_name = 'Pad Info'


class Inspections(models.Model):
of_pad = models.ForeignKey(Pad_info)
insp_date = models.DateField('Inspection Date')
agency = models.CharField('Agency/ Organization', max_length=40)
lead_inspector = models.CharField('Lead Inspector', max_length=40)
accepted = models.BooleanField(default=False)
comments = models.TextField('Comments/ Notes')

def __unicode__(self):
return self.agency

def ID(self):
return self.id

class Meta:
db_table = 'inspections'
verbose_name = 'Pad Inspection'


Here's my form:

from django import forms
from django.forms import ModelForm
from django.forms.fields import DateField
from reclamationdb.models import Inspections


class create_insp_m(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Inspections
fields = ['insp_date', 'of_pad', 'agency', 'lead_inspector', 
'accepted', 
'comments']


And here's my view, still under construction:

def inspectioncreate_m(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = create_insp_m(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
# create new inspection record
insp_date = form.cleaned_data['insp_date']
of_pad = form.cleaned_data['of_pad']
agency = form.cleaned_data['agency']
lead_inspector = form.cleaned_data['lead_inspector']
accepted = form.cleaned_data['accepted']
comments = form.cleaned_data['comments']

# find if there is a record that matches pad_id
try:
checkPad = Pad_info.objects.get(pk=of_pad)
newrecord = Inspections(of_pad, insp_date, agency, 
lead_inspector, accepted, 
comments)
newrecord.save(force_insert=True)

except Pad_info.DoesNotExist:
# display error message and blank the pad_id field
pass

return render(request, 
'reclamationdb/inspectioncreate_mobile.html', {'form' : form,})
#return HttpResponseRedirect('/index/')

else:
# invalid form
pass
else:
# do something else
form = create_insp_m()
#return render(request, 
'reclamationdb/inspectioncreate_mobile.html', {'form' : form,})

return render(request, 'reclamationdb/inspectioncreate_mobile.html', 
{'form' : form,})

The form appears in a web page, and displays all the required information, 
including the data from the related one record in the foreign key.
But when I save, I get a Type Error, reading "int() argument must be a 
string or a number, not 'Pad_info'".

The traceback that's highlighted is the line "checkPad = 
Pad_info.objects.get(pk=of_pad)"

 And in the list of local variables, the relevant one seems to be:
"of_pad  "

It's an object rather than a string, and I can't seem to filter out just 
the number 41, which is the actual content of pad_id, and the value I'm 
trying to save in the foreign key field. This is really driving me crazy!

Thanks!

Dave

In your search method, if the request method was POST, you are trying
to retrieve submitted data via key 'search_string'. However, if you
look at your HTML form, there does not seem to be any kind of input
field called 'search_string'.

Try adding name="search_string" parameter to the input element, for
example:



On a side-note, why are you even using POST method for a search? I
_think_ that GET should be sufficient, and probably more correct thing
to use, unless your searches are actually altering data (which could be
considered a bad practice).

Best regards

Sending mass email in Django

[Kevin Ndung'u]

Hi people,

I am currently maintaining a website where at times I may need to send 
around 10,000+ emails at a time.

I just want to ask on what methods you may consider Django best practices 
e.g. in efficiency when sending mail to a list of this size?

I am currently handling this as a celery task and sending the emails 
through Mandrill  transactional email service 

Currently, this is how I am handling it:

from django.core.mail import EmailMultiAlternatives, get_connection
from models import Subscriber

connection = get_connection()
recipients = [i.email for i in Subscriber.objects.all()]

for sub in subscribers:
msg = EmailMultiAlternatives(title, content, sender, [sub])
msg.attach_alternative(content, "text/html")
recipient_list.append(msg)

connection.send_messages(recipients)

Is it better to split the list into smaller chinks to reduce the size of 
the requests or which other implementation methods can I consider?

Thanks

Re: Alternative to django-registration (unmaintaned since September 2013)

Pull> requests, issues and comments sent to this repository will be ignored.  As I'm currently using this app in my project, I wonder if there is anyalternative for django-registration? Maybe someone knows about a fork. I'm not aware of an active fork. If you're looking to step into open source contribution, this would be a good project to adopt - the code base is stable, so the management overhead should be relatively low.   I like the idea about contributing and get in charge of a fork, but I'm not sure about my availability...   Besides that, I found a related issue report (rejected because is not the goodplace to ask this question, but relevant anyway)[2] [2] https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/13164 Because there's no single answer to the question. Authentication is a topic that is hard to get right, and there's a very limited number of "right" answers. Passwords *must* be done well, or you risk vulnerability, and what constitutes "well" requires considerable expertise.  However, the requirements for registration and signup will vary between projects, and will depend on project requirements. Some projects will need a fully verified personal profile before you can continue; some only require a verified email address; some will allow an email address, but allow later verification, and some will require completely anonymous profiles that are filled in at a critical point in workflow (e.g., at checkout in an e-commerce site). There's also nothing especially technically complex about these workflows - unlike Authentication, there aren't any real land mines that could lead to vulnerabilities (beyond those that are inherent in building *any* web page). So, the Django project has made the decision to keep Authentication as a core piece of functionality, but keep registration as a third-party thing. This means that the wider community can contribute alternate approaches. It also means that the core team isn't a bottleneck on progress - django-regsistration has it's own release cycles, bug tracking processes, and so on. This arrangement has worked well for 8 years; it's only because James has stepped down and nobody has volunteered to take over that a problem now exists.  Thanks for your explanation!!  --  You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
