I've been working with Python and Django for the past week or so and thus
far it's been great. My question is more of a general Python question than
it is a Django question, but hopefully I can get some help or a link to an
appropriate doc/website. So far I've not been able to dig up much useful
information up on Google.
The application that I'm working on checks a CVS repository for all active
projects and returns a list of the corresponding project names. I'd then
like to put these names into a database. We start a few new projects every
week, so our CVS repo grows fairly quickly and I'd like to be able to have
the database stay current, either with a cron job or by a user starting the
processes.
So far all that works, but since CVS will always return a full list of
projects, and I only want one entry in the database per project, I need to
filter out the new projects. Right now I'm just comparing what the CVS
return list contains with what is in the database.
Here is the code that I use. Output_list is from CVS and current_projects
is from the database. Is there a faster way to do this, or a built in
method in Python? This code works fine now, but I can see it getting slow.
for b in output_list:
found = False
for i in current_projects:
if i.name == b:
found = True
if not found:
new_projects.append(b)
Thanks for the help,
Alex
