I'm already using safe. Maybe the problem is that the standard pdf character

ModelAdmin,get_form or Field._get_val_from_obj
I need to "decode" the value of the fields of ModelAdmin.form so that, for some fields, the int value is translated in a string showing its meaning. I do not want to implement this in the Model class (using Model.to_python or Model.formfield for example), because the information displayed in the columns of changelist_view page are enough for the 90% of the times, so I prefer to do the extra work necessary to generate the strings only when requested thus avoiding the overhead necessary to select the correct string to be wasted in most cases. So I was in doubt whether to override the ModelAdmin,get_form or some _get_val_from_obj for some fields from the ModelAdmin.form. Which one is more correct in your opinion? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Couldn't you just use `choices` for that? Specify the possible values and their 'decoded' versions in a 2-tuple, set the field's choices parameter to that constant, and you would automatically get a `get_FOO_display()` method which would show the 'decoded' value instead of the original one. -- DR. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: ModelAdmin,get_form or Field._get_val_from_obj
Hi Daniel, choices is how it is currently implemented, but it has 2 flaws: 1) this happens for all records, just when they are loaded; 2) the "translator" function, checks if the int can be used as a key to retrieve the meaning, else (KeyError) it returns 'currently unused'. 3) the choice solution forces me to list all the possible values (usually less than 20 out of 255 are meaningful).

Extending Admin to Include URLs for 3rd party ID fields.
Hi, I am new to Django and would like to advise on customising admin forms. I have references in my model to ID held in 3rd party systems. e.g. Salesforce, Zendesk etc. What I want to do for these field types is display a URL that links to the object in the respective source system. What would be the best way to go about adding this capability - ideally in some generic way such that for a given type of field I can calculate the appropriate URL prefix to append and include in the view.

Saving File/Image in tmp. I'm in trouble ...
Hey there,
Is there any way to skip saving a file to the /tmp directory on a
server?
I got in a lot of trouble from my host when they found 10,000 files
just sitting there from a Django script I'd been running to import
book covers from an API.
So far, the guts of my save code are:
Save the file:
- item.cover.save("cover name", File(open(the_file_itself)),
save=True)
Within def save() in the model, I send it to S3:
- temp_file = "This is where the Model saves the file,
upload_to="files/"
- filedata = open(temp_file, 'rb').read()
- conn.put(BUCKET_NAME, S3_PATH, s3.S3Object(filedata), {'x-amz-acl':
'public-read', 'Content-Type': 'image/jpeg'})
So, I'm guessing as a default it creates the file under the servers "/
tmp" directory?
This is what I need to change.
I tried:
FILE_UPLOAD_TEMP_DIR = "/a/better/directory/tmp"
But it hasn't changed anything.
Any ideas would be great,
Thanks so much ...
Danny

templates translation problem
I have site with text written in Russian.
Now I want to translate it to English.
I've upgraded templates with trans tag like that {% trans "Всем
привет" %}.
Then I run makemessages, translated what I want, compilemessages.
And now, the translation for the string "Всем привет" is never shown.
Templates encoding is UTF-8.
I've tried and loaded translation directly from python shell - it is
loaded and present in translation object.
What am I doing wrong?
Cheers,
Nick

How to handle Jaywalking - parsing a comma-delimited value in field and do lookups (1,4,5,6...)
Hi, I have an "interesting" problem here - in a given mysql database scheme some sql wizard used comma-separated values in a text-field and with that values lookups have to be done. The data itself is simple numbers like 1,34,25,66,78,134 and so on. So what I have is something like this: id | username | groups | more... - 1 | name| 1,23,4,55,6 | ... 2 | name2 | 3,2,4,5| ... The groups string can be very long. there is also a table "groups" with "id, name", as expected. Yes, this is bad design. No, I can not immediately change the design, I will try to, but atm I have to handle the situation as it is. Of course normally this would be solved with an intersection table and a many-to-many relation. For anybody interested: there is a book by Bill Karwin called "SQL Antipatterns" - he names the described design Jaywalking and it is the first antipattern in the book. I was surprised to find it in real life So my question is: how to handle this with django? I really would like to use django to build a nice management interface on top of that tables, but currently I do not know how to go on with that jaywalking antipattern in my way. My first idea was to create my own intersection table - but the process of [re-]converting data does only work in a static environment - the data is heavily used and so transformations of tabledata would be neccassery on every request to mirror the live situation...too slow! So I am looking for a good way to implement some kind of layer that would translate this field for django into an intersaection table so that I can use models - will this work? What do you think? How to handle this? Thank you very much for your attention! Snaky -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Admin Model Validation on ManyToMany Field
Hello,
I have the following classes:
class Application(models.Model):
users = models.ManyToManyField(User, through='Permission')
folder = models.ForeignKey(Folder)
class Folder(models.Model):
company = models.ManyToManyField(Compnay)
class UserProfile(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User, related_name='profile')
company = models.ManyToManyField(Company)
Now when I save application, I would like to check if the users do not
belong to the application's folder's companies.
I have posed this question before and someone came up with the
following sollution:
forms.py:
class ApplicationForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Application
def clean(self):
cleaned_data = self.cleaned_data
users = cleaned_data['users']
folder = cleaned_data['folder']
if
users.filter(profile__company__in=folder.company.all()).count() > 0:
raise forms.ValidationError('One of the users of this
Application works in one of the Folder companies!')
return cleaned_data
admin.py
class ApplicationAdmin(ModelAdmin):
form = ApplicationForm
This seems like right the way to go about this. The problem is that
neither the users nor folder fields are in the cleaned_data and I get
a keyerror when it hits the users = cleaned_data['users'] line.
I was hoping that someone here could explain to me why these
manytomany fields don't show up in cleaned_data and that someone could
possibly give me a sollution to my problem.
Thanks!
Heleen

Existing sites using Django
Hi, I've discussed using Django to my MD and he's asked for some example large sites that were built using Django. Does anyone maintain or know of any neat URLs I can point him to to see how great it is. I'm not looking for front-end features, rather speed of page request or volume of data.

Re: __init__ custom form validation
Your init is expecting a value for field3_type, so you need to provide
it when you create the form in your view (prior to request.POST in the
postback instance).

Anyone want to take over maintaining Instant Django?
Djangoholics: I no longer have the time or interest to maintain my little project: http://www.instantdjango.com If anyone would like to take over the project, I would gladly give it away. Right now it costs a few dollars in shared hosting a month, and a few more dollars for the downloads I host with AWS. If you take over the project I will give you the domain, but I'm not going to pay the hosting. I'll also give you my 'build' script, but it no longer works correctly because the Python core devs broke the Windows installer, and mocked me when I reported the bug. The project website gets a hundred or so hits a day, and several thousand downloads a month. It also ranks highly for a few different google searches related to Django. Let me know if you have any interest. It wouldn't take much effort to maintain, I just can't do it anymore. -cjl -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Existing sites using Django
Two of the bigger django sites are www.disqus.com and www.theunion.com. A couple more known sites can be found at the frontpage of djangoproject.com. Djangoproject.com itself is probably one of the biggest when it comes to visitors as well, serving 500 000 unique visitors per month. You could also mention that Google, NASA and Mozilla are Django supporters :) On Jul 13, 3:31 pm, Adam Auckland wrote: > Hi, > > I've discussed using Django to my MD and he's asked for some example > large sites that were built using Django. > > Does anyone maintain or know of any neat URLs I can point him to to > see how great it is.

Form validation and template errors - need n00b help
HI,
Forgive me, here's another n00b doozie. I've created a form, which
extends form, however, my form is not validating and I can't get the
form to print errors next to my form fields. What's curious, at the
form.is_valid()
in all the examples, I don't see an else: clause. Which leads me to
believe that a validation error should be
raised at this point, so an else is not neccessary??
So, my form should hold clean_fieldname methods for each field name
correct? and if an error is raised,
automagically, django handles the error messages, as long as it's
defined in my template, correct or not?
So every property needs a clean method?
Sorry, I've read the resources and I'm a little unclear on this?
Thanks for your time,
Django and the community rocks
from my views:
def listing(request):
if request.method == 'POST': # If the form has been submitted...
new_listing = Listing()
form = ListingForm(data=request.POST,instance=new_listing)
#form.save()
if form.is_valid(): # All validation rules pass
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/listing/') # Redirect after
POST
#else:
#return HttpResponseRedirect('/listing/') # Redirect after
POST
#return HttpResponse('form is a failure, like you.')
#return HttpResponseRedirect('/create/') # Redirect after
POST
else:
form = ListingForm() # An unbound form
return render_to_response('listing.html', {
'form': form,
})
listing.html template
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block content %}
{% include "form_snippet.html" %}
{% endblock %}
so apparently that should work
form_snippet.html template
% for field in form %}
{{ field.errors }}
{{ field.label_tag }}: {{ field }}
{% endfor %}

Try it and see :) If the checkboxes share the same name (as in the name attribute of the input tag), then the checked ones' values form a comma-delimited list.

Re: Mass Hosting on mod_wsgi?
So it would work to just create a standard deployment for each VirtualHost, just specifying a different DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE in each WSGI script? I should be able to get that working, as a fallback at worst. I've read the Django integration and Application Issues pages from the mod_wsgi docs, and feel like I got the gist but won't claim to have understood every word; also read the virtualenv docs and was mostly lost. I do have someone lined up to handle the actual installation of mod_wsgi, but he has no experience with Django and very little with Python. My server administration skills are pretty basic (navigating the filesystem, configuring a plain-vanilla virtual host, etc), and I'm sure there are things I don't understand about the Python and Django operating environment -- I'm a little more familiar with the PHP model where everything is set up and torn down for each request. I figured there might be some solution using mod_rewrite or routing in the WSGI script to avoid having to create separate Virtual Hosts and WSGI scripts for each instance, but it is crucial that the correct "current site" be identified by the Sites contrib module for every request, and I have no idea whether that would be derailed by any sort of internal routing. Each settings file is named based on the domain it's associated with. So example.com and www.example.com would both be served using user_settings.example_com. example.co.uk and www.example.co.uk would be served using user_settings.example_co_uk. The domain-specific settings files basically just import all the settings from a global settings file and then override the SITE_ID. All media will be served from a single separate domain / virtual host, so there's no need to configure media serving for each site. Thanks for your help!

If you are just getting started, then would very much recommend going with the basic approach of separate VirtualHost for each with standard configuration, but where delegate each Django instance to a daemon process group. To get a better understanding of how to do it and the problems watch my Sydney PyCon talk. For details see: http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2010/06/sydney-pycon-modwsgi-talk-slides.html > I figured there might be some solution using mod_rewrite or routing in > the WSGI script to avoid having to create separate Virtual Hosts and > WSGI scripts for each instance, but it is crucial that the correct > "current site" be identified by the Sites contrib module for every > request, and I have no idea whether that would be derailed by any sort > of internal routing. VirtualHost is better to start with because then you can have a separate Apache access/error log for each site. If you use other mechanisms then cant have separate log files. > Each settings file is named based on the domain it's associated with. > So example.com andwww.example.comwould both be served using > user_settings.example_com. example.co.uk andwww.example.co.ukwould > be served using user_settings.example_co_uk.

The one thing you should be aware of given suggestion to use VirtualHost and mod_wsgi daemon process groups, is that you will need to restart Apache each time you add a new site. If that isn't very often, then quite acceptable.

django and handling form validation errors
HI,
(sorry for this re-post, my original post isn't here??, so I replaced
it, and I have been checking up all day as I hope to find the
solution)
Forgive me, here's another n00b doozie. I've created a form, which
extends form, however, my form is not validating and I can't get the
form to print errors next to my form fields. What's curious, at the
form.is_valid()
in all the examples, I don't see an else: clause. Which leads me to
believe that a validation error should be
raised at this point, so an else is not neccessary??
So, my form should hold clean_fieldname methods for each field name
correct? and if an error is raised,
automagically, django handles the error messages, as long as it's
defined in my template, correct or not?
So every property needs a clean method?
Sorry, I've read the resources and I'm a little unclear on this?
Thanks for your time,
Django and the community rocks
from my views:
def listing(request):
if request.method == 'POST': # If the form has been submitted...
new_listing = Listing()
form = ListingForm(data=request.POST,instance=new_listing)
#form.save()
if form.is_valid(): # All validation rules pass
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/listing/') # Redirect after
#else:
#return HttpResponseRedirect('/listing/') # Redirect after
#return HttpResponse('form is a failure, like you.')
#return HttpResponseRedirect('/create/') # Redirect after
else:
form = ListingForm() # An unbound form
return render_to_response('listing.html', {
'form': form,
})
listing.html template
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block content %}
{% include "form_snippet.html" %}
{% endblock %}
so apparently that should work
form_snippet.html template
% for field in form %}
{{ field.errors }}
{{ field.label_tag }}: {{ field }}
{% endfor %}

Re: Form Relationships, Multiple Models Using a loop?
I think what I was looking for was inlineformsets. Easy enough i
suppose. We'll see. Anyone interested, see here:

Re: Mass Hosting on mod_wsgi?
Thank you -- can't tell you how much I appreciate your taking the time to help me out with this!

allow users who are not logged in to submit data first and then log in or register
I have a data submission form that is visible to everyone, but a user must be registered & logged in before the data can be submitted I want to allow users who are not logged in to submit data through the form first, and then ask him to either register or log in. After the registration/login process is finished, the data submitted by that user would then be saved to the DB. What's the best way to achieve that? It doesn't seem like the @login_required decorator would work because the initial data submitted by the user wouldn't be preserved by @login_required. Is there a decorator similar to @login_required but would do what I want? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Filtering a List
Example: http://dpaste.com/217886/ Line 6 is what I have a question about. Should I use javascript to deal with that? If so, can the javascript access the django boolean? Is there a way for Django to make runtime changes like this (filter / unfilter checkbox or button)? How would I go about this task by refreshing the page when the user presses the checkbox or button, post data I am assuming but how would I have Django access that? In case it isn't obvious, I am relatively new to Django so a point in the right direction may suffice. I have Googled a bit for a solution but couldn't find anything, though it's possible I am just using the wrong terms. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
