akismet and the new comments app
Has anyone tried using akismet with the new comments contrib app? I've set up a signal handler to run on 'comment_will_be_posted' and check the comment with akismet, and the service is insisting my test comments are spam no matter what. I'm using the voidspace python akismet API, and largely copying out of the comment_utils app. I've noticed that setting build_data=True in the comment_check call doesn't seem to work: that's supposed to draw values out of os.environ, but it looks like those values aren't available (it complains if I don't explicitly pass them in). I'm adding them manually out of request.META, but the test is still coming back negative. You don't get much more than 'bad!' out of Akismet, so I'm a little stumped. Has anyone done this yet? Is there any reason why the appropriate environment values would not be available during the 'comment_will_be_posted' signal stage, or there might be some other settings floating around that are poisoning the whole thing? Sorry if this is an unhelpful request for help, mostly I want to know if anyone's been down this road yet.
