Replicate admin format in django template
Hi
I have a column which is a TextField. When we look at django admin it
appears as a box.
models.py
add_detail = models.TextField()
Let say you write the following text in that add_detail textbox in django
admin :-
Mission Impossible 4
Actor : Tom cruise
I am displaying this add_detail in template in the following way:-
{{add_detial}}
I have to display it in a box with proper alignment so i am using it in a
table format.
Now when you look at the template It will appear like this:-
Mission Impossible 4 Actor : Tom cruise
What i want is the way it is saved in admin add_detail field in whatever
manner whether he gave whitespaces,breaks,press return
it should appear exactly the same in html. How can i achieve this ?

Staging (dev,test,prod) in django
Hi, in my environment there are three stages: dev, test, prod. Every stage has its own linux user, and all three stages can live on different hosts. The application is installed in $HOME of a user with this name schema: proj_customer_S (S is d=dev q=qualtitytest p=prod) There are some custom scripts to: - Compare database tables and source code between dev--test and test--prod - Push/Pull source code from one stage to the next. I want to get rid of these custom scripts, and use open source application. There are some tools: For example Chef, Puppet but they are for cloud solutions. Looks too big for me. Fabric: could be used to implement "diff files" and "diff database-table". How do you handle staging? - Deploy the source code and static files - diff files between stages - diff database tables.

"Current" timezone in admin
Hi, With 1.4 timezone support I was wondering if/how django admin supports the current user's timezone. There's no corresponding HTTP header like "Accept-Language" so I guess the timezone must be set in the session (looked up from a profile or whatever). Is there a hook that allows the "current" timezone to be set for admin, so that it uses it for datetime display/submission? Maybe a middleware that expects a session variable configured/named in settings? With full timezone support I also think it may be worth adding timezone to the standard User model, with a default None that falls back to settings.TIME_ZONE Cheers, Danny -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

You haven't defined a form. Just calling a model instance "form" doesn't
make it one.
Plus, of course, at no point are you passing the POST values into the
instantiation.
See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/forms/modelforms/ for
modelforms,
and https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/topics/forms/#using-a-form-in-a-view
for the general pattern of how to instantiate a form from the POST.

A defaultdict operates just like a normal dict in that iterating over it
just returns the keys. Usually you would do {% for order, customers in
final_d.items %} to iterate over both keys and values.
However I'm confused by your initial description. What you show is not a
dict at all, but a list of 2-tuples (each containing a string and a list).
Is that a single value of the dict, or what?

DefaultDicts are dicts, when you iterate over dicts directly you iterate over
their keys not pairs of (key, value). So your dict does not look like this, it
looks like this:
{order1: [customer2, customer1], order2: [customer3, customer5, customer6]}
and there is no way iterating over it will yield anything but its keys
Either use `dict.iteritems()` to iterate over (key, value) pairs or iterate
over it and then dereference the values corresponding to each key.

I'm guessing it's the initialization vector for the dict, though I'm not
sure why he used this for a non-ordered dict.
>>> dict([(1, [2, 3]), (5, [6, 7, 8])])
{1: [2, 3], 5: [6, 7, 8]}

restricting choices of foreign key to objects owned by user
hi note: this is in admin. I have a model called Child. Child has foreign key to Project. There are many projects, but each user is only allowed to add a child to the projects he belongs to. I have restricted the ProjectAdmin queryset so that the user can only see his projects in the project changelist. But when the user goes to add/edit a child, the dropdown shows *all* projects and not only the projects he belongs to.

Re: Does anyone know any blogs that write about how to quickly install and deploy a django application on Amazon EC2?
No offense to the author, but I would advise ignoring that blog for the following reasons: # author admits he is a non-sysadmin noob # he installs everything globally rather than using virtualenv # he uses apache instead of... well... anything else # there does not appear to be anything in there that is specific to ec2 Bonus reason: # he uses mysql instead of postgres In fact there really isn't much of a difference between installing/ deploying to ec2 compared to installing anywhere else, so any good article you find on django deployment will work on ec2. Where this does not hold true is if you are looking to create the node and deploy your app all in one step. In this case you will want to use something like chef (or puppet I assume, though I have only used chef). Be forewarned that it gets quite deep in terms of mastering all the concepts. http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Build+a+Django+Stack I reckon you could also do something like that, perhaps a bit more crudely, with shell scripts and fabric.

Primary key for read-only models
I need to read data from an "external" database table from my django project. I am not interested in modifying the data, only reading it. Of course I would like to create a django model for the table, because it makes life so much more easier.

There is no other field which is guaranteed to be unique that I can use as primary key in the Django model.

The only other way that I could think to do it would be to write your own M2M object. Just an object with two foreign key fields to reference X and Y. In that object you could overwrite the save method to check for which relations currently exist for a given reference to X and update accordingly. I'm not sure this would work for you, but it might be an alternative, although it violates the DRY principle.

reverse() with keyword argument driving me batty
Hi all,
I'm running Django 1.3, and I can't get a simple reverse() with keywords to
work.
My urlconf has this:
url(r'^results/text/(?P)/$', 'textresults',
name='exporttextresults')
My code does this:
exporturl = reverse("exporttextresults", kwargs={"jobkey": returned_key})
And I get this error:
*** NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'exporttextresults' with arguments '()'
and keyword arguments '{'jobkey':
'40756766e8de9e0994536cf11773267d469c3a4ed77da53e89b8bc1de6c9'}' not found.
What's the right calling sequence for a reverse to an URL with a keyword
argument?
Thanks,
John

Social conference website?
Good morning, I am building up a social-conference website in Django for a university clubs' comedy-revue. I will open-source it under the two-clause BSD license. Features I would like to implement: • User accounts automatically generated on attendance registration • Ticket, Sponsor and paraphernalia sales through a PayPal gateway • Document collaboration area (built off askbot) for Writers I have seen a variety of Django-based conference websites. Which would you recommend I build off to ascertain the aforementioned features?

Re: reverse() with keyword argument driving me batty
Your URLconf is broken.
The (?P) regex fragment gives you a keyword argument of jobkey,
but it only matches a zero length string. You need to include a regex
to specify what you want jobkey to match.
(?P[0-9a-fA-F]*)
Cheers,
Cliff

Re: not sure how to unpack a list within a tuple within another list inside the template
Mario, While there are syntaxes for doing this sort of thing in the template language, I would expect the template to start looking messy, and be hard to maintain. May I suggest that you wrap this stuff in a class to provide attribute like access to the data that you need? This puts the access logic in python, and makes the template code more transparent.

Re: Internationalization and localization
Thats what I was also thinking about to do it like that, I have couple
websites in django but still beginner learning, with django_easymode I
created entire website that translates itself just
by switching between languages /en/ /it/ etc... so I can add
unlimited...but I would like to know also your way that pretty much better
for me because I don't need to depend on 3rd party plugin..
is there a way you could send me a zip of small working example?
thanks
