showing many-to-many field in admin interface

[Mo Mughrabi]

hello everyone,

am trying to build a single model that will be used for uploaded
images/files. Am trying to use it in the best way in the admin pages, so
when i associate it with a specific model as a many-to-many field it would
appear in a friendly way for users to upload images.

My attachment model is as following

class Attachment(models.Model):
_attachment_types = (
('I', ('Image')),
('P', ('PDF'))  ,
)

attachment_type = models.CharField(max_length=2, default='I')
description = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True)
file= models.FileField(upload_to='%Y/%m/%d')


my other model is

class LawCaseImage(models.Model):
bonanza = models.ForeignKey('LawCase')
image   = models.ForeignKey(Attachment)
primary_photo   = models.BooleanField(default=False)




class LawCase(models.Model):
"""  """
user_profile= models.ForeignKey(UserProfile,
limit_choices_to={'profile_type' : 'C'}, help_text=_('Only corporate
accounts will appear in the drop down.'))
name= models.CharField(max_length=20, )
description = models.TextField()
created_at  = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
created_by  = models.ForeignKey(User, editable=False)
image   = models.ManyToManyField(Attachment, through=LawCaseImage)


I tried to use inline associate in my admin.py as following

class LawCaseImageForm(admin.TabularInline):
model = LawCaseImage


class LawCaseForm(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = [LawCaseImageForm, ]


but all i got was a grid with the many-to-many table. I would like to be
able to upload images right away when creating a new record and they will
be uploaded to attachment model and relation will be created on that base..

Is there a way to configure admin to work on that behavior? and if not, is
there a plugin out there i could use for that purpose?

Re: Multiple Database Routing Based on Site

[Mo Mughrabi]

What I did is create an attribute in my models and called it

model.py
class Data(models.Model):
   # connection_name is my database name which points to the name from
settings.py
connection_name = "gis"

name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
area = models.IntegerField()

and created a router.py
class DbRouter(object):

"""A router to control all database operations on models in
the contrib.auth application"""

def db_for_read(self, model, **hints):
if hasattr(model,'connection_name'):
return model.connection_name
return None

def db_for_write(self, model, **hints):
if hasattr(model,'connection_name'):
return model.connection_name
return None

def allow_syncdb(self, db, model):
if hasattr(model,'connection_name'):
return model.connection_name == db
return db == 'default'


so, everytime for read or write operation it will check the model for
attribute connection_name and if not found it will use the default.

hope this will help,
cheers,

configuration field

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi I have a table which every has TextField to store plain text. Am using
this field for configuration and putting there some XML to read later on.

The problem with my approach that the xml is not validated and the reading
operation can be exhausting to parse the xml every time. And since XMLField
types are obsolete. Is there an alternative? even as a third party? if
anyone can recommend anything, I would appreciate it.

mo

and this is what my query is printing

anyone can help show columns from list and listi18n? I tried extra but It

{% for column in column_gr %}
{{ column.grouper }}
{% with column.list as groupr %}
{% regroup groupr by main_title as item_gr %}
{% for ggc in item_gr %}

{{ ggc.grouper }}
{% for i in ggc.list %}
{{ i.list_title }}
{% endfor %}

remove items from queryset for nested regrouping

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi,

I've been working on a project that takes into consideration performance as
the top priority therefore am trying to use single to queries at each page
to collect all the needed information.

Any who, I got to a point where I have one query set that need to be
regrouped based on column (left, right, center) and then again regrouped
based on title. The logic is working fine, but when the second regroup
starts it will take the entire queryset meanwhile I only need to regroup
items that are on the left or center..etc. so, I searched for functions to
remove items from the queryset without hitting the database and only thing I
could find was to build a custom template which is where I got stuck :)


This is my query result


 
++---++---++---+---+-++-+-+
| col_mapper | list_title| main_title | list_slug | id | slug
   | is_active | site_id | id | domain  | name|

 
++---++---++---+---+-++-+-+
| L  | gadget| for sale   | gadget|  2 |
for-sale  | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |
| L  | furniture | for sale   | frnture   |  2 |
for-sale  | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |
| L  | engines   | for sale   | engines   |  2 |
for-sale  | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |
| L  | women seeking men | personals  | wsm   |  1 |
personals | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |
| L  | missed connection | personals  | misd-conn |  1 |
personals | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |
| L  | men seeking women | personals  | msw   |  1 |
personals | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |
| R  | massage   | services   | massage   |  3 | srvces
   | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |
| R  | computers | services   | compters  |  3 | srvces
   | 1 |   1 |  1 | example.com | example.com |

 
++---++---++---+---+-++-+-+


In my template, I did something like this

{% regroup dict by col_mapper as column_gr %}

{% for column in column_gr %}
{{ column.grouper }}

{% regroup column.list by main_title as item_gr %}
{% for i in item_gr %}
{{ i }}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}

The first regroup is working fine, but once it gets to the second regroup it
regroups again the whole queryset while I want to only regroup where
col_mapper is equal to col_mapper.grouper. I tried to build a custom tag,
but most the approaches I know they will cause the queryset to hit the
database again for filtering.

Any suggestions?

django custom signals

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi,

am having problem with django custom signals not being able to see signals
across application. I made a simple call in my

*core/signals.py*

  *  from django.dispatch.dispatcher import Signal*
*# Signal-emitting code... emits whenever a file upload is received*
*# *
**
*upload_recieved = Signal(providing_args=['data'])*
**
**
*def upload_received_handler(sender, data, **kwargs):*
*print 'upload received handler'*
**
*print 'connecting signal'*
*upload_recieved.connect(upload_received_handler)*

*in core/models.py*

   * import signals*
**
*[the model]*

*in blog/admin.py*

 *   from models import article, category, media *
*from django.contrib import admin*
*from libs.shared.core.tasks import Create_Audit_Record*
*from libs.shared.core import signals*
**
**
**
*class ArticleModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):*
*def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):*
*upload_recieved.send(sender=self, data='ddd')*
*instance = form.save()*
*return instance*
**
**
**
*admin.site.register(article, ArticleModelAdmin)*
*admin.site.register(category)*
*admin.site.register(media)*


this is what I did, but am getting an error in the runtime unable to see
upload_received function. any ideas?

templating best practices in django

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi,

I'm wondering what would be the best practice for templating in django. I
plan on having a single theme in which heads and footers will almost be the
same across my project,

1. Should I great an app only for this purpose, in the sense, an app will
host a header and footer functions (methods) along with their views. Is that
the best practice?

2. my second question, if I am going to host a header somewhere centered. Is
it possible that I include or exclude certain css or js from the main
header?

3. Is there a django module that help organizing my js and css in a way?


4. last, what is django_compressor used for, I don't get the idea, If am
going to specify the paths to my js. Why does it combine them all in a
single file? does that make the loading faster?

thanks,

Re: i18n django models

[Mo Mughrabi]

Transmeta is much nicer and much simpler. I just installed it and I already
like the way it is designed,

I just ran into a small problem with the ./manage.py sync_transmeta_db not
working. Any idea how it can be solved?

Am just getting an unknown command,


Cheers,

Re: i18n django models

[Mo Mughrabi]

This is not exactly what I need.

this library is not done as per the common best practices for i18nlizing
data.

All you have to do is declare an object (field) as an i18n field and the
engine takes care of the rest. This example you can see in java struct and
php symphony, when executing the equivalent for syncdb it will generate an
additional table which holds the i18n languages instead of creating columns
with prefixes and suffixes.

Having columns mapped to a specific language means modifying your table in
the future if you need additional languages. Meanwhile, if creating a one to
many relation with a specific table that holds only the variable in
different languages means you can add as many language support as you need,

Plus, when I went through polyglot it does override a lot
of crucial functions, adding up such plugin into a critical
production environment can be risky with very little information about it.


Any other solutions?

Including subfolders

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi,

My project is getting quite large with so many apps, so i decided to create
a folder for libs/shared and folder for apps in which libs/shared will
contain all my generic libraries and apps will contain the project specific
apps.

I found the following

http://solutions.treypiepmeier.com/2009/01/08/keep-your-django-applications-in-a-subfolder/

and It did the job in enabling me to include apps. I just have to questions

1. How do create a tuple in my settings.py containing all the folders I need
to include (in my case libs/shared and apps) and in manage.py include them
without hard coding the folder names? It seems like the following function
does not take tuples and only accept strings

sys.path.insert(0, join(settings.PROJECT_ROOT, "apps"))

2. Will my code works when I move it to production using mod_wsgi?

regards,

Re: Designing a workflow engine on Django

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi Javier,

yeah I saw goFlow, it looks pretty nice. My only concern is the update, if
you go to

http://code.google.com/p/goflow/downloads/list

<http://code.google.com/p/goflow/downloads/list>you notice it has not been
updated since 2008 and that is worrying. I don't know if anyone is still
maintaining the code, if it will work with 1.2 django..

Any ideas of alternative solutions?

creating apps inside sub folders

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi,

am trying to organize some commonly used apps in my libs/shared folder
inside my project.

When I moved the file there, I just appended libs.shared.appname to the
INSTALLED_APP and it worked. but the views are not working, i noticed the
urls that needed to be appended as well. What else am missing?

i18n django models

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hello,

in my design there are some models where I need to store certain fields in
different languages. I was wondering if anyone has done it before? I saw
some django modules that help do model translations but some of them did not
work properly.

Any best practices out there? below is my code

*my model.py*

class Lookup_I18n(models.Model):
i18n_code = models.CharField(max_length=5,
default=settings.LANGUAGE_CODE)
value = models.CharField(max_length=300)

class Lookup(models.Model):

purpose = models.CharField(max_length=10)
key = models.CharField(max_length=10)
value_i18n = models.ForeignKey(Lookup_I18n)
value = models.Field()

class Meta:
unique_together = (('purpose', 'key'),)

Django, unobtrusive JavaScript and cross-site scripting

[Mo Mughrabi]

Hi,
am wondering if there is a manual/tutorial that talks about advance use
of JavaScripting and django, using existing frameworks such as JQuery or
Prototype, generating unobtrusive JavaScripting with no inline
Javascripting.

Another question, is there a place where I can read about cross-site
scripting and how I can protect my django project from such a thing?
