Manuzhai-- Yes, thanks for that thoughtful response. Yes, sorry, I knew they were called "apps", not "plug-ins," but I'm still very new at this game. And, yes, I realize Django is very new to the outside world, and these things will take time to happen. I look forward to all the good things comi

Django "add-ins": blog, discussion board, wiki, etc.

2005-08-30 Thread Chris Ryland
I realize that Django already has most of the machinery present to build blogs and discussion boards, but I wonder when/if we'll see packaged add-ins that solve these problems robustly "out of the box." E.g., a robust blog add-in should have categories, tags, and track-backs, none of which are pr

Do you mean db_check->database_check? That seems to check permissions and what not (which now that I think about it, I didn't really take into account). But it doesn't seem to even be approaching the ability to ALTER a table dependant on a new model. Did I miss something here? The two step proc

Web services for Django...

Has anyone else thought about how SOAP or XML-RPC would work with Django's Manipulators? Okay... here's the "back story" to the question... I have a "pre-alpha" web services layer (currently it's just for XML-RPC, but I'd like to add SOAP, and even -- gasp-- the Atom protocol). It's composed of

I now have a working solution to ticket #12. I've added some code to management.py that allows one to run: > django-admin.py transition This then compares your current db to your models in that app, and next to each model creates a "transition file" so if your model was called "app.py", next to
