Django Standalone Template

Hi Django folks - I'm new to Django, and I just want to use the template system now, independent of the rest of Django. But I can't get it to see a template. Even the system templates as was suggested when I started Googling for my error. >>> import django.template >>>

CacheMiddleware with generation-style caching

Hi all, I'm trying to implement a generation-style caching system with django [1]. I found django-jimmypage [2] which implements an alternative version of @cache_page, and it uses johnny-cache [3] for an "infinite" cache timeout. However, most of the code in django-jimmypage appears quite

Re: Comparing two ManyToMany fields for same entries

I'm going to guess that my version is slow since a new query would be run for each row returned by the initial one. Check out an app called django-debug-toolbar. It has a view that will show you all of the SQL queries generated as a page is built. It will also tell you how long each query took

Admin Custom Template

Re: Comparing two ManyToMany fields for same entries

I think the filter I used does work to detect related friends, here is a Pythonic example of the same code, but done differently without filters: Person.objects.get(name='Person1').friends.get().friends.all() Instead of returning back 'Person1', when using filters, this returns back 'Person0'.

Re: Comparing two ManyToMany fields for same entries

Thanks. Is this way good for database optimization though? I guess I could use select_related(). I was hoping there was a QuerySet I could run. I made this one, although I'm not sure if it works correctly: Person.objects.filter(name='Person1').filter(friends__friends__name='Person0') This

How to load data to auth_permissions from initial_data.json when the auth_groups is also loaded from fixture?

Hi, In my application, I have fixed groups (like admin, staff, subscribers) etc, and this data in auth_groups is not intended to change in the program, so I am loading them in initial_data.json. I also want to load data into auth_group_permissions as the application is not expected to change

Oh, that's right! Too often I miss the closing );, especially when *reading* code. It's very unfortunate javascript didn't have someone like Guido van Rossum as BDFL. Life for web developers would surely be easier if it too were developed with "be as readable as English" as a goal. Glad to know

You are right, sorry. jQuery is loaded, I can see it in Firefox and in Firebug. If I write this statement $(document).ready(function() { } in a working JS file, that file stops working, can be reached through Firefox (it is loaded) but not by Firebug. 2011/10/28 Andre Terra

Hello, Leonardo First, which django version are you using? I recommend using the contrib staticfiles app to handle your static files [1]. Once you get the hang of it, it will pay off. Second, see that you aren't getting 404 errors in the js URL. Using the dev server, you can easily read through

Re: create object instance with ManyToManyField

The add() method of a ManyToMany field adds the indexes of the given objects to the field. If you add a list, each index in the list is added to the field. In the admin interface, when you edit a Company object, you see a convenient automagically-created menu which lists all Index object in your
