Re: new user needs some advice setting up a model...

2008-09-25 Thread paul

this works well when i'm editing an individual shot.  however, i get a
error when editing shots inline.  i've had a good look around - and
this was a known problem.  does anyone know if this has been fixed?

another question: right now, i'm using the admin UI to input data.
right now, my app is more of an internal produciton system - so it
doens't need to look pretty.  however, i have also read that 'auto
forms' could/should be used instead.  can anyone set me straight
please?

many thanks again,

paul

You can force database to watch after columns to be unique by one or in
combinations.
Django admin interface also can watch after this restrictions.
How to make a model to have few attributes unique together is described
here:
 http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/options/#unique-together
So you make job and id to be unique together in shot model.

new user needs some advice setting up a model...

2008-09-24 Thread paul

hi all,

i've thrown myself into developing an animation pipeline using
django.  i'm new to both python and django - but have in the (distant)
past written thousands of lines of c,c++ & perl.  so, please be gentle
- but maybe not too gentle with me.

this first question is quite simple.  i have a job and shot classes
(should i call them tables?).  each job has a unique name, and can
have many shots attached to it.  a shot must have a unique name within
each job.  ie,

job=bmw, shot=1,2,3,looktest
job=goldfrapp, shot=1,2,3,4,5,6,looktest,animtest

currently, i'm using the admin UI to input job and shot information.
my question is what is the best way to make sure that i never have a
two shots of the same name per job?  should this logic be inserted
into the save method of the shot, or could/should it be inserted
elsewhere (ie, within the model itself)?

sorry for the simplicity of the question - i'm still trying to get to
grips with django/pythonific best practice...

regards to all,

paul
