Listbox even when using a "through" class?
I'm maintaining a product in which we have a many-to-many relationship which needs to have attributes in /some/ installations. That means we'll define a tabular inline class and display in the admin. But in /other /installations, these attributes are not needed, and we'd like to just display a listbox. How do we do that? According to this page: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/contrib/admin/#working-with-many-to-many-intermediary-models you need to do something in admin.py to get the tabular presentation - but is it also possible to get a listbox, and how? One could make the "through" link conditonal, but that complicates matters as Django will then by default use a different database table to store the class. I'd really like to keep the intermediate class but "hide" it behind a simple multiple choice field when its attributes aren't needed. best regards, -- Carsten Agger Magenta ApS Åbogade 15 8200 Århus N Tlf +45 5060 1476 Mob +45 2086 5010 http://www.magenta-aps.dk carst...@magenta-aps.dk -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Installation script?
I've created a Django web service consisting of two separate sites, by default running on the same server, which implements a "document broker" service capable of centralizing the generation of office documents. This work was made on behalf of my employer Magenta ApS - the code is available on the Subversion server for the Danish Agency for Digitisation <http://www.digst.dk/da/Servicemenu/English/About-the-Danish-Agency-for-Digitisation>, if anyone is interested: https://svn.softwareborsen.dk/DokumentBroker/ As it is, the installation procedure is: * Get the code directory by unpacking the tarball or checking out the code * Check the INSTALL file for dependencies, install all dependencies (Debian/Ubuntu is strongly preferred) * Run the "create_virtualenv" bash script to create the Python virtualenv and install Django and a lot of Python packages * Softlink or copy the Apache config files to /etc/apache2/sites-available, manually update paths, etc. * Create the necessary databases and update the settings.py files of the two sites. We'd like to be able to automate all of this, so that the user can install these two services by running a single installation script. I'm working on how to create source distribution tarballs with setuptools and a setup.py file. However, setuptools and distutils will only *install* my packages as Python packages and not set up the sites, and that is *not* what we want. We'd like to create a complete installation program so the user could just * grab the tarball * run "sudo install.py" or whatever * enter some ports and paths configuration * and now, up and running. But how do I do that for a web service which is really a complete Django site? Setup.py is obviously the Python Way of installing packages, but is there a Django Way of creating and distributing installation programs for web services which are entire site implementations? best regards and thanks in advance, Carsten Agger -- Carsten Agger Magenta ApS Åbogade 15 8200 Århus N Tlf +45 5060 1269 Mob +45 2086 5010 http://www.magenta-aps.dk carst...@magenta-aps.dk -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Is Django Right for Me?
Den 29-05-2012 14:33, KevinE skrev: Just one question - why would django avoid an offline mode - is that a completely unreasonable/undo-able extension? It seems to me that smartphones may eventually take over normal computers on the web but with the inherent distinction that on a smartphone you are not always guaranteed a data connection. I have been looking at all the mobile development systems and very few (if any) have really dealt with offline mode (not sure how powerful html5 is and whether you could support it for a complete database?) So if I uncouple my client app am I not losing all the advantages of using django? Seems to me I will be rewriting alot of my code... Django is inherently a Web application framework. You could build off-line applications to be used by one person with no connection to the Internet, but the easiest way to do that would probably be to set up a local Web server, e.g. an Apache server. So it would be online, but it would still be "Web". -- Carsten Agger Magenta ApS Åbogade 15 8200 Århus N Tlf +45 5060 1269 Mob +45 2086 5010 http://www.magenta-aps.dk carst...@magenta-aps.dk -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Kim, e.g., is used as a female name in English and as a male name in Scandinavian languages. Robin is used as a female and male name. Then there's combinations such as José María and María José, which require knowledge of Spanish naming conventions. Andrea is a male name in Italian.
