Chaining queries?
I am using this query in the views function search() to find a lawyer
in the database:
lawyers = Lawyer.objects.filter(last__icontains=q)
q is the query entered by user here: http://swimswith.com/search-form/
For instance, searching for "lelland" returns her info:
http://swimswith.com/search/?q=delelle
But instead of returning that info, I want to grab the school info and
year_graduated for "delelle" and search again and find all lawyers who
graduated from the same school the same year and display that. Can
anyone help about how to do this?
This is the view
def search(request):
if 'q' in request.GET and request.GET['q']:
q = request.GET['q']
lawyers = Lawyer.objects.filter(last__icontains=q)
return render_to_response('search_results.html', {'lawyers':
lawyers, 'query': q})
else:
return HttpResponse('Please submit a search term.')
This is the model:
from django.db import models
class Lawyer(models.Model):
firm_url = models.CharField('Bio', max_length=200)
firm_name = models.CharField('Firm', max_length=100)
first = models.CharField('First Name', max_length=50)
last = models.CharField('Last Name', max_length=50)
year_graduated = models.IntegerField('Year graduated')

class LawyerAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
fieldsets = [
('Name', {'fields': ['first', 'last', 'firm_name',
'firm_url', 'school', 'year_graduated']}),
#('School', {'fields': ['school', 'year_graduated']}),

list_display = ('first', 'last', 'school', 'year_graduated',
'firm_name', 'firm_url')
list_filter = ['school', 'year_graduated']
search_fields = ['last', 'school', 'firm_name']
Is it possible to display 'school' in one column and 'year_graduated'
in another column?
I tried
list_display = ('first', 'last', 'school', 'year_graduated',
'firm_name', 'firm_url')
list_filter = ['school']
list_filter = ['year_graduated']
search_fields = ['last', 'school', 'firm_name']
but that doesn't work.

Re: How to populate the database
I tried to convert my csv file with csv2json.py and it worked before (see this thread http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_frm/thread/a00b529ba2147d91/efb82ba2893cc0a7?lnk=gst&q=csv#efb82ba2893cc0a7) but now I am trying the same exact thing in a different directory and I get this error: C:\...\Django\sw2\wkw2>csv2json.py csvtest1.csv wkw2.Lawyer Converting C:...\Django\sw2\wkw2csvtest1.csv from CSV to JSON as C:\...\Django\sw2\wkw2csvtest1.csv.json Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\...\Django\sw2\wkw2\csv2json.py", line 37, in f = open(in_file, 'r' ) IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\...\\Django\\sw2\\wkw2csvtest1.csv' Below is the link to csv2jason.py and line 37: http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1680/ ... in_file = dirname(__file__) + input_file_name out_file = dirname(__file__) + input_file_name + ".json" print "Converting %s from CSV to JSON as %s" % (in_file, out_file) [line 37] --> f = open(in_file, 'r' ) fo = open(out_file, 'w') Do you know an easier way to convert csv to json?

Re: How to populate the database
Thanks, I'll try it now. What does
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'myproject.settings'
do? I read the documentation here http://docs.python.org/library/os.html
but I didn't understand.
My app is in
C:.../Documents/PROJECTS/Django/sw2/wkw2.
Do I enter?
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'sw2.settings'?
from sw2.wkw2.models import School, Lawyer
By INPUT_FILE you mean the file where data I want to upload to sqlite3
is, correct? That file is sw2/csvtest1.csv
What's 'Internal ID'?
This is my models.py:
from django.db import models
class School(models.Model):
school = models.CharField(max_length=300)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.school
class Lawyer(models.Model):
firm_url = models.URLField('Bio', max_length=200)
firm_name = models.CharField('Firm', max_length=100)
first = models.CharField('First Name', max_length=50)
last = models.CharField('Last Name', max_length=50)
year_graduated = models.IntegerField('Year graduated')
school = models.CharField(max_length=300)
school = models.ForeignKey(School)
class Meta:
ordering = ('?',)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.first
Thanks!

Using admin search as keyword search?
I asked this in Stackoverflow but there was no answers: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1849250/django-admin-search-functionality Can anyone here help with ways to achieve this: I have a simple database in django with SQLite and now I want to improve it with a better search capability (I will create a new project with new models). I would like to ask about how to plan and go about this project. The existing database has these fields: first, initial, last, school, yearGraduated I am using django admin to sort by last name and then filter by year graduated to find lawyers who graduated from same school the same year. It works like this: Enter last name and search. Search results reveal all lawyers who went to same school Sort by last name searched Find year graduated Go to year graduated filter and click on the year graduated to get his classmates. Example: Search for "connelly" Results for 58 names who went to Georgetown University Law Center Sort by last name to see that connelly graduated in 1973 Click on 1973 in year graduated filter This pulls 3 more lawyers "eliot", "frederick" and "alan" who graduated from Georgetown in 1973 Instead of this I would like to enter "connelly" in the search box and get the names of "eliot", "frederic" and "alan". I am planning to use Postgres with these fields: url (of the bio page of lawyer); firm; firstName; lastName; school; yearGraduated How do I achieve this result?

Re: Redirect problems
Adam and Skylar,
The ISP's support just replied to my ticket. They set the urls.py as
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^wkw1/$', 'sw1.wkw1.views.index'),
(r'^admin/$', 'django.views.generic.simple.redirect_to', {'url': '/
admin/wkw1/lawyer'}),
(r'^admin/wkw1/$', 'django.views.generic.simple.redirect_to',
{'url': '/admin/wkw1/lawyer'}),
(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)
and this is now working.
But looking at the example in the documentation
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/generic-views/#django-views-generic-simple-redirect-to
urlpatterns = patterns('django.views.generic.simple', ('^foo/(?P\d
+)/$', 'redirect_to', {'url': '/bar/%(id)s/'}),)
I see that it is a little different. I am confused because I don't
exactly understand how urlpatterns works. I hope to read about it
more, e.g., I found this document with lots of examples:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/4975790/urlpatterns-for-django-cheatsheet
Thanks for the help.

Redirect problems
I've been trying to redirect
/admin/ to /admin/wkw1/lawyer
The suggestions from my previous post
http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/msg/67c4594a4083bd45
did not work.
I read the redirect section in the documents as suggested
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/generic-views/#django-views-generic-simple-redirect-to
and tried this urls.py
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^wkw1/$', 'sw1.wkw1.views.index'),
#(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)
urlpatterns += patterns('django.views.generic.simple',
('^admin/$', 'redirect_to', {'url': '/admin/wkw1/lawyer/'}),
)
but this too results in a server error.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Re: Can I change the title of an admin page?
This worked, thanks.
But I had to change base.html as well (in ~/webapps/django/sw1/
templates/admin). Because previously I had hardcoded the {{ title }}
in line 65 in base.html
{% block content_title %}{% if title %}{{ title }}{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
I would like to ask, if you can help me understand how this line 65
gets the document title and if I can change the document title.
Because I prefer that {{ title }} remains there.
I actually want to make http://swimswith.com/admin/wkw1/ private
because I don't want the reviewers of the demo to see that page. I am
having problems with views as well so I'll ask that in another thread.
Thank you for the help

Re: Can I change the title of an admin page?
Ok, thanks. I read the "overriding admin templates" section. I want to
learn Django's template system and all these files are confusing to
me, but eventually I'll get it.
As instructed I created the directory system
~/webapps/django/sw1/templates/admin/wkw1/lawyer
Then, I copied change_list.html from
django/contrib/admin/templates/admin
and pasted it in
~/webapps/django/sw1/templates/admin/wkw1/lawyer
Then I copied
{% extends "admin/change_list.html" %}
{% block content_title %}Your Title Here{% endblock %}
and pasted on top of change_list.html.
I restarted the server. But I don't see the change. What am I doing
wrong?

Re: Default sort order in admin
Yes, this is probably true. I am still learning. And I like Django and
how it works but it takes time to understand some concepts. I was
rushing a little bit because I wanted to meet this challenge
>> [the tutorial] is enough to build it in no longer that a few days (learning
>> included),
>> even for pre-intermediate programmer.
mentioned here:
http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_frm/thread/d7f9320f3fba5df0/cfd37dc8d5d51027?q=#cfd37dc8d5d51027
But it took me 2 weeks to finish this very simple app.
And I'm still trying to resolve this last issue. If you look at the
pictures here http://zeynel.posterous.com/django-template-problem
the title "Search lawyer by last name" should not be in the /admin/
wkw1 directory because the search box is in /admin/wkw1/lawyer/.
How do I change that title?

Changing the admin templates
My app is almost done but before I send it out to get some feedback I want to make a couple of more design tweaks. I changed the branding on the login dialogue box and on the dark blue band on top, by changing the template base_site.html. On the home page (www.swimswith.com/admin/) I want to change the title "Site administration" and on the change page (www.swimswith.com/admin/ wkw1/lawyer) I want to change the title "Select lawyer to change".

Re: Default sort order in admin
Thanks!
I noticed that using
class Lawyer(models.Model):
...
ordering = ('last',)
did not work.
But this worked
class Lawyer(models.Model):
...
class Meta:
ordering = ('last',)
copied from http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/models/ordering/
What is the correct way actually?

Re: Auth and Sites in Admin
Great, thanks. That solves my problem. But, I wish it were possible to actually make a user read only. Unless I give the user the right to change content the admin page says, "You don't have permission to edit anything" and no content is visible. But overall, I think admin is really great tool and there is still a lot to learn.

Re: New user login problem
I figured that "active" and "staff" need to be checked as explained here: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/faq/admin/ Does anybody know how to make admin "view only" for a user? This paragraph from the above appears to explain a similar process: How do I limit admin access so that objects can only be edited by the users who created them? The ModelAdmin class also provides customization hooks that allow you to control the visibility and editability of objects in the admin. Using the same trick of extracting the user from the request, the ModelAdmin.queryset() and ModelAdmin.has_change_permission() can be used to control the visibility and editability of objects in the admin. Is there anyone who is familiar with this process? On Nov 14, 9:38 am, Zeynel wrote: > Hello, > > I am creating a new user successfully but I cannot login with that new > user.

Re: Apache2 installation
Yes, finally the support decided to install it. The process was a nightmare. I don't know if this is the same with other hosting places. The documentation was horrible and just outlining the process for people who are experts, not for newbies. And now they installed the project in 2 different directories: /home/zeynel/sw1 and /home/webapps/ django/sw1. I kept changing the settings.py in /home/sw1 DEBUG = False, and resetting the server, and nothing was happening. I found that I needed to change the settings.py here: /home/webapps/django/sw1 So that's done and hopefully that removes the debug admin page, I think this is what the django documentation advises. I have a simple database in admin but I realized that to reach the admin a username and pw is needed. I haven't figured how to translate the functionality I have in admin (database, and search) to a public webpage. If you can help I'd appreciate it.

Re: A simple database project
Ok, I tried search_fields = ['school__lawyer_first'] and I get this error Cannot resolve keyword 'lawyer_first' into field. Choices are: id, lawyer, school In the variations that I tried only search_fields = ['school__school'] worked. I followed the tutorial and arranged lawyer names as a list, so that when I search for school, I see which lawyers went to that school and their year of graduation. Then I have the filter by year, and when I apply that filter, I see all the lawyers who graduated from same school same year. This is the result that I want, but obviously not a very elegant solution. Thank you.

Adding a second search box to admin panel?
Hello, I have almost what I wanted to achieve. At least enough for a demo. It works like this: Enter a law school, say "NYU" The search results show First, Initial, Last, School, Year Graduated Then I click the desired year in the Filter for "Year Graduated" and I can see all lawyers who graduated from NYU in 2000. But I want to improve this so that I start from the name of the lawyer, instead of school. So if the lawyer is Gary Y. Lawyer4, I search for Lawyer4 and find the school he went to and the date he graduated. Then I search for school to find for other lawyers who went to same school. So, is there a way to add a second search box to admin panel to search a different field? (Note: is there a way to publish the development server that I am working on now so that I can show you the app?)

Re: A simple database project
In this document http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/
ModelAdmin.search_fields is explained:
"You can also perform a related lookup on a ForeignKey with the lookup
API "follow" notation.
search_fields = ['foreign_key__related_fieldname']"
I tried
search_fields = ['school__lawyer']
but I get an error message when I did a search for last name of
lawyer:
Related Field has invalid lookup: icontains
When I try
search_fields = ['school__last']
I get the error message
Cannot resolve keyword 'last' into field. Choices are: id, lawyer,
school
Maybe I don't understand what "related_fieldname" is.
What is it?
This is my model:
class School(models.Model):
school = models.CharField(max_length=200)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.school
class Lawyer(models.Model):
first = models.CharField(max_length=20)
initial = models.CharField(blank=True, max_length=2)
last = models.CharField(max_length=20)
year_graduated = models.IntegerField('Year graduated')
school = models.CharField(max_length=200)
school = models.ForeignKey(School)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.first

Re: A simple database project
Hi Tomasz,
I was able to build the admin page and put a search box there:
class LawyerAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
fieldsets = [
('Name', {'fields': ['last', 'first', 'initial']}),
('School', {'fields': ['school', 'year_graduated']}),
]
list_display = ('first', 'initial', 'last', 'school',
'year_graduated')
list_filter = ['year_graduated']
search_fields = ['last', 'first']
This search box searches only first and last names. But what i want is
a search box that finds all lawyers who went to same school. My
database now contains:
Tom T. Lawyer3 Columbia School of Law 2003
Bob Lawyer2 NYU 2000
JohnI Lawyer1 NYU 2000
So Lawyer1 and Lawyer2 graduated from NYU in 2000.
So I want to enter in the search box "Lawyer1" and in the result page
I want to see "Lawyer1 knows Lawyer2"
How do I do this?
Thank you so much.

Adding a search box in admin
Hello, Thanks again for all the help. I have the admin page and I added some lawyer names and schools, now I want to add the search box. In the tutorial it says "Let's add some search capability: search_fields = ['question'] ... " Translating this to my model, I entered in admin.py search_fields = ['last'] But this did not work for me. I did not see a search box anywhere. I found these references online: http://www.julienphalip.com/blog/2008/08/16/adding-search-django-site-snap/ http://blog.tkbe.org/archive/django-admin-search-functionality/ http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/59a0fb0f07f1c93f/960f28867e75909d?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=search+box#960f28867e75909d but I am not sure if that's what I need to do. I need one search: I want to pull all lawyers who graduated from same school the same year. Can you give me a clue about how to do this?

Re: TemplateSyntaxError
Thanks. I will try what you suggested. But I am almost there with the
admin, the only thing is I need to change the date format so that it
takes only the year. Now DateField requires month, day and year. I
tried this
year_graduated = models.DateField('Year graduated', input_formats=
['%Y'])
as in
class Lawyer(models.Model):
first = models.CharField(max_length=20)
initial = models.CharField(blank=True, max_length=2)
last = models.CharField(max_length=20)
year_graduated = models.DateField('Year graduated', input_formats=
['%Y'])
school = models.CharField(max_length=200)
school = models.ForeignKey(School)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.first
but it doesn't work. Some googling shows that I may be confusing
"form" and "models" http://osdir.com/ml/DjangoUsers/2009-03/msg02593.html
In that case how can I fix the DateField so that it takes only the
date? Because I only need "Year Graduated" not month or day.
Thanks again.

Re: TemplateSyntaxError
Ok, thanks. I started over and created a new project sw1 and module
wkw1, and now it all works. But now I noticed that, the "initial"
field in "Lawyer" is required. But I want it to be optional. Do I need
to start over again to make that change :(
And also in the "Year Graduated" field I just need the year, so I need
to remove, day, month, and time. How do I make these changes? There
must be a way without starting over and creating a new project.
Thanks.

TemplateSyntaxError
Hello,
These are my tables:
BEGIN;
CREATE TABLE "wkw_school" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"school" varchar(200) NOT NULL
)
;
CREATE TABLE "wkw_lawyer" (
"id" integer NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
"first" varchar(20) NOT NULL,
"initial" varchar(2) NOT NULL,
"last" varchar(20) NOT NULL,
"year_graduated" datetime NOT NULL,
"school_id" integer NOT NULL REFERENCES "wkw_school" ("id")
)
;
COMMIT;
(I changed "Education" to "School" because in the admin panel it
showed up as "Educations". I think "Schools" makes more sense.)
I created the admin and I registered School and Lawyer.
In the admin panel School link works fine but when I click on Lawyer
link I get a "TemplateSyntaxError at /admin/wkw/lawyer/
Caught an exception while rendering: no such column:
wkw_lawyer.school_id"
But according to the above tables, school_id has been created.
I tried to add in the shell,
p = Lawyer(school_id=1)
but
p.save()
throws an error.
Any ideas why Lawyer link in the admin panel does not work?
This is the offending line on the debug page:
78{% result_list cl %}
Thank you.

Re: Help about models
Hello Greg and Jirka,
Thanks for the help.
I was rereading the tutorial to understand the ForeignKey. It says
that ForeignKey "tells Django each Choice is related to a single
Poll."
In my case, each lawyer is associated with 1 law school; and each law
school is associated with 1 or more lawyers. Considering this I
thought that ForeignKey should tell Django that "each lawyer is
related to a single School" so I put ForeignKey under Lawyer:
class Education(models.Model):
school = models.CharField(max_length=200)
class Lawyer(models.Model):
first = models.CharField(max_length=20)
initial = models.CharField(max_length=2)
last = models.CharField(max_length=20)
year_graduated = models.DateTimeField('Year graduated')
education = models.ForeignKey(Education)
Does this make sense? And, can you explain why this is needed in terms
of searching the database? What happens if I don't use a foreign key?
Thanks again.

Help about models
Hello,
I decided to start my own project with what I learned from part 1 of
the tutorial.
I have the project in C:\sw\sw\wkw
The app sw.wkw is a prototype for a "who-knows-who" database for legal
profession. I wanted to start with a really simple model:
class Lawyer(models.Model):
first = models.CharField(max_length=20)
initial = models.CharField(max_length=2)
last = models.CharField(max_length=20)
year_graduated = models.DateTimeField('Year graduated')
class Education(models.Model):
#lawyer = models.ForeignKey(lawyer)
school = models.CharField(max_length=200)
I commented out the ForeignKey because it caused an error.
I will only make one search in the database. I want to enter Lawyer's
name and find all other lawyers in the database who graduated from the
same school the same year. It's like sorting by school in a
spreadsheet and pulling the lawyer's names. Here's the sample
spreadsheet:
https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Al923jWh4O4ydG1vSmx4bDVqTUFUXzVqSXhzVkcydmc&hl=en
Do you think this is the right model for what I am trying to do? Thank
you for your comments.
So far I created the tables and tomorrow I'll set up the admin and
populate the database with some names.
I am really enjoying Django. I am learning both Django and Python.
Thanks again for your help.

Re: No module named django
Great! Thank you very much. I downloaded django-1.1.1 again and
untarred again.
django directory is in C:\Django-1.1.1\Django-1.1.1\django
I don't know why I got 2 Django-1.1.1 folders but installation worked
this time.
There are many __init.py__ files, they are in build directory.
I did the installation as "setup.py install" instead of "python
setup.py install" so the tutorial says that django-admin.py may not be
in the system path.
Now I am going to create a project. Should I create it in the second
Django-1.1.1 folder?
Thanks again!

I know this has been asked here a million times before, but I couldn't
find the right answer. It seems something to do with PYTHONPATH. Can
anyone help me figure this out. This is the error message on the

install it :)

A simple database project
Hello, I am planning to build a demo prototype for a who-knows-who database for the legal profession. Database will consist of lawyer name, school and year graduated. Searching by lawyer name will return other lawyers graduated from same law school the same year. Can I build this in Django? How long would it take me to learn enough Django to build this myself?
