Re: Audio Streaming from server

[yati sagade]

Hi,
You need to be much more specific. If the problem is related to Django,
someone will help you out. But if it is help with Icecast2 you're looking
for, you should probably try their mailing lists/forums/IRC channel.

Developing first Django Site -- any advice on co-developing effectively with a professional?

[Michael A]

Dear Django community,

I'm excited to develop my first site in Django and am trying
understand the best way to approach things. I don't have a strong
coding background, but I'm comfortable with the tutorial, ~3 hours of
screencasts, and "Beginning Django E-Commerce" by James McGaw.

Designed the database and coded the model layer myself... hiring a
designer for the front-end work, and hiring a django developer to co-
develop via github. Worked out the development roadmap and features
needed for launch (below).

My goal is to develop 30-50% myself with feedback/review from the
professional, with them coding the rest and me learning from their
code. Has anyone tried something similar before? Any concerns or
advice on partnering effectively?

Our feature list is below, with hourly estimates from the developer.
I've starred those I'm aspiring to code myself.
Also interested in whether we can leverage existing code/libraries to
solve some of these challenges. Thanks!!

Re: Bus Error: 10 (Intro Tutorial)

Hi,

I've never faced such issue with Django on OSX.
Do you use or import non pure python apps ?
What python version do you use ? Stock osx one ? homebrew ? homemade ?

Re: Developing first Django Site -- any advice on co-developing effectively with a professional?

[Marcin Tustin]

I would suggest that you let the professional take the lead on coding -
that means that he should probably assign the bits that you do, and control
the technical aspects of the design. Hopefully you have project management
experience, and can handle that side, and you should keep track of the
features that you want - both to make sure there isn't feature creep, and
to be ready to decide what to let go if this goes slower than planned (as
it will - it always does without a well-functioning team familiar with
every step of what they are doing).

And don't be surprised if you find the coding hard. Coding is hard - much
harder than the activities of most other professions.

A bus error occurs due to unaligned memory access, or access to a non
existent memory address. In the absence of an actual bug (which others
would see), this clearly indicates that one or another of the C
libraries used by python conflicts with it.

This could happen if you compiled a C library to use with python, like
one of the many python packages that consist of a small C library
(mysql and postgresql DB adaptors, PIL, many others), and use it with
a different python than it was compiled against.

It probably has very little to do with django - django is pure python
- but with one of the libraries that is used by django or your code.
The solution is simple; remove everything, start from scratch and
recompile/reinstall everything relevant.

It is probably trickier as OS X does interesting things with python,
and most users end up with a system python and a user python. Making
sure your installed extensions are compiled and used with the right
python is then what is important.

Cheers

Tom

Re: python list in javascript

[Marcin Tustin]

You'd have to show us the generated output. In any case, this is more of a
javascript question.

If you want to put some data into a rendered page, use the json module to
create the data in your view, and paste the whole json string using your
template.

Hardware requirements for Djando development (Linux vs Mac)

[Houmie]

Hi,

This might sound like a strange question.  I am switching from
MVC .NET to Django/Linux environment. It makes most sense to go
completely linux (Ubuntu). But there is also the option of leaving PC
completely behind and start using a Mac for development.

As I am not familiar with Mac, is it true that a let say a Mac Mini is
powerful enough to run Python, Eclipse/PyDev and Django like its done
in Ubuntu without any problem?

Many Thanks,
Houman

A weird behaviour of imagestore app

[chuwy]

Hi, all.
I'm trying to install imagestore  app 
in my project. Default models are created succefully, and all other parts 
working properly.
But, it have a feature to extend base (abstract) models and create your own 
by some complicated mechanism. This is mine model:
from django.db import models 
from imagestore.models.bases.album import BaseAlbum 
class Newalbum(BaseAlbum): 
title = models.CharField("title", max_length=128) 
class Meta(BaseAlbum.Meta): 
app_label = "imagestore" 
abstract = False
Also I have a string IMAGESTORE_ALBUM_MODEL = 'art.models.Newalbum'
When I run syncdb it tells me Backend module "art" does not define a 
"Newalbum" class. ('module' object has no attribute 'Hook').
But of course it defined. 
And the strangeness is only begins. When I put debug statement in the place 
where imagestore trying to get my model it prints proper module (already 
imported) and proper class name (string). But! dir(mod)print only variables 
appeared before "from imagestore.models.bases.album import BaseAlbum" in 
above example only "models". Why? What I don't know about importing modules?
I already tried to install it in many awkward combinations of settings 
properties, versions of django (and required apps), app_label and so on. It 
creates tables, when I inherit Newalbum from typical models.Model, but this 
models hasn't any BaseClass' behaviour.
So, what I'm doing wrong?

So did you? Since 1.4 you can

Re: python list in javascript

"title" is never defined in that code snippet so it would be None. Did 
you mean "key"? The syntax looks wrong too for assigning to someobject.

Re: Developing first Django Site -- any advice on co-developing effectively with a professional?

[Daniel Sokolowski]

Welcome to Django, just a comment  that you quoted might be overly 
optimistic. In my experience simple semi static sites are easy to nail 
within the time frame but as complexity rises code hours can and DO quickly 
grow. The nature of Django lends itself to tweaking/improving so do not be 
surprised if your go over your estimates because you want a sharp polished 
product.


I would be very curious to see what it actually took you and what the final

Subject: Developing first Django Site -- any advice on co-developing 
effectively with a professional?


Dear Django community,

I'm excited to develop my first site in Django and am trying
understand the best way to approach things. I don't have a strong
coding background, but I'm comfortable with the tutorial, ~3 hours of
screencasts, and "Beginning Django E-Commerce" by James McGaw.

Designed the database and coded the model layer myself... hiring a
designer for the front-end work, and hiring a django developer to co-
develop via github. Worked out the development roadmap and features
needed for launch (below).

My goal is to develop 30-50% myself with feedback/review from the
professional, with them coding the rest and me learning from their
code. Has anyone tried something similar before? Any concerns or
advice on partnering effectively?

Our feature list is below, with hourly estimates from the developer.
I've starred those I'm aspiring to code myself.
Also interested in whether we can leverage existing code/libraries to
solve some of these challenges. Thanks!!

You've given yourself 2 months to do something you have never done
before.  My experience is that it takes at 3 months to do anything and
if it takes more than 6 months  it gets messy.  That being said,
Django is awfully fun, and a lot can be done quickly.  Its the 10%
that will take up all of your time.  Not the 90%.

Good luck

urls with/without implicit views import

[Alexey Luchko]

Hi!

I wonder what are pros and cons of explicit import views in urls.py.
There are at least 2 ways of defining urlpatterns.
* explicit import
from . import views
urlspatterns = patterns('',
  ('а/', views.a),
)

* lazy import
urlspatterns = patterns('path.to.app.views',
  ('a/', 'a'),
)


The first one is not bounded to application location in the source/package 
tree.  The second one is lazy.  What are side-effects of both ways?



Thanks in advance.

[Ejah]

Looking at some estimates I wonder if they are fair. F.e. lost
password is part of django-registration, but it might be you want
something else.
Anybody some more feedback?

Macs are great for Django development!  You may have to do a bit more work 
to get some libraries installed as sometimes they aren't specifically tuned 
for Macs.  Any modern Mac should be just fine for development.  Heck even 
ancient Macs (PPC based) can be used albeit slower and somewhat harder to 
configure, not the OS but again some of the libraries you might install.

I have a website  in 
development and the servers are Mac based.  The webserver is a recently 
purchased low-end Mac Mini .  Its 
stack includes djagno, nginx, gunicorn, psycopg2, etc.  The database server 
is an ancient Power Mac G4 (Mirrored Drive 
Doors), 
Dual 1GHz.  It's running Postgres.  The webserver was formerly a Power Mac 
G4 (Mirrored Drive Doors) , Dual 1.25GHz 
which finally gave up the ghost after almost 10 years of faithful service [ 
sniff :-( ].

The system has thus far not been optimized but it runs adequately fast at 
this stage of my development process.  Feel free to look around or even 
enter in some nutrition facts labels! :-)

You can also do lazy imports without specifying a specific view module:

patterns('',
  ('^$', 'app.views.homepage'),
  (^logout$', 'auth.views.logut'),
)

If a view is defined lazily in a urlconf, then it is not imported
until a URL is resolved to that particular pattern, IIRC.

Cheers

Tom

Re: python list in javascript

[Daniel Sokolowski]

see http://docs.python.org/library/json.html 

So you output it in JSON format into a JS variable and then you can use it that 
way.

Django Caching with Redis

[M Oklah]

Hi,

I'm building a high traffic intensive application that involves the browser
making an AJAX request to the server every second and is expecting the
server to return JSON. At any given second the server responds with the
same JSON back to each browser (regardless of which user logged in).
Because the response is the same for each browser request I decided to
remove the DB overhead by caching that response using Redis.

The view responsible for returning the JSON has code similar to this:

products_json = []

if cache.get(CACHE_LATEST_PRODUCTS_KEY) == None:
//Query the DB as necessary and construct the JSON response
...
//Populate the cache
cache.set(CACHE_LATEST_PRODUCTS_KEY, products_json)
else:
products_json = cache.get(CACHE_LATEST_PRODUCTS_KEY)


In settings.py TIMEOUT is set to 1.


I have 2 questions:
1) In a clustered environment where there are several django servers
running, each of those servers initially will end up querying the DB to
construct the JSON, this can also happen at any time in the future if the
entry expires in the cache while multiple requests are being processed by
the django servers. How can I synchronize the cache look ups so that only
one of the Redis SET's takes place. Should I take out the code that queries
the db and sets the cache entry from the view and move that logic to some
sort of periodic task?

2) Is it possible to cache for less than a second? I've tried setting
TIMEOUT to 0.7 but I didn't see the results I was expecting..


Many Thanks,


Moe

Re: Django Caching with Redis

[Shawn Milochik]

For what it's worth, Redis itself allows you to set expiration at the 
millisecond level. That won't help you with Django's own caching, but if 
you need to write something custom using the Redis Python module then 
you can.

Django Database Management App

[dumb906]

I've just upped my app to a relatively stable release though still beta. 
Check it out at https://github.com/dumb906/tiote or you can get from pip 
using the handle "tiote".

It supports Database CRUD applications. If you ever knew Sqlbuddy and 
needed some sort of variant for your awesome django project; be happy cause 
you just got one. 

Can't totally describe the application since its as complex as a total web 
application, but just keep in mind it supports big brother PostgreSQL as 
well as our nice guy MySQL.

I am in much the same situation, Michael. How did you go about finding a good

Subject: Developing first Django Site -- any advice on co-developing effectively
with a professional?

Dear Django community,

I'm excited to develop my first site in Django and am trying understand the best
way to approach things. I don't have a strong coding background, but I'm
comfortable with the tutorial, ~3 hours of screencasts, and "Beginning Django
E-Commerce" by James McGaw.

Designed the database and coded the model layer myself... hiring a designer for
the front-end work, and hiring a django developer to co- develop via github.
Worked out the development roadmap and features needed for launch (below).

My goal is to develop 30-50% myself with feedback/review from the professional,
with them coding the rest and me learning from their code. Has anyone tried
something similar before? Any concerns or advice on partnering effectively?

Our feature list is below, with hourly estimates from the developer.
I've starred those I'm aspiring to code myself.
Also interested in whether we can leverage existing code/libraries to solve some
of these challenges. Thanks!!

Tutorial

[Gerald Klein]

Hi, I did the tutorial everything is fine, I wanted to see how it was off
the dev webserver they give you , so I hooked it up to uWSGI. The views
that I defined are fine but the admin has no formatting just data. Can
someone tell me what I missed.

thanks in advance

Sound like you're not properly configure the server to serve static
content. View source for the html through your browser, pick any
references to css or js files - something like
http://yoursite.com/static/admin/styles.css or
http://localhost:8000/static/admin/style.css and try to access it
directly. If you got 404 - Page Not Found then you need to configure
uWSGI to serve the static files. It maybe not a good idea to serve the
static files through uWSGI but you can figure out that later once you
understand and fix this problem.

Re: Tutorial

[Gerald Klein]

I guess the problem I am having at this point is that the css files for
admin are generated dynamically and I don't know where from as far as what
the path should be that I could map it. I tried setting up the static
mapping but I don't know what to point to as it's root.

thanks

Re: Tutorial

[hr6134]

Hello,
You can create a sym link to folder with static files of django admin
in your static folder. And then all will work.
As example:
I have debian squeeze. Admin static has a path:
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/static/admin
You must do the next:
$ cd path_to_yout_static_folder
$ ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/static/
admin/ admin

Then check owner and permission of sym link.

I think that this just a trick, but i don`t know better way.

No, it's not dynamically generated. Most django app will have static
files in their /static or for older app that does not yet
follow > 1.3 convention, they'll place their static files in /
media. You then need to collect all the static files for each app and
place it somewhere that your web server can serve it. If using apache,
you can put it under DocumentRoot of your vhost or set proper alias to
the directory where you collect all the static files in one place
(STATIC_ROOT). You don't have to do this manually since django > 1.3
provide app name staticfiles if enabled in your INSTALLED_APP provide
some helper command to collect all the static files into one place.
The doc explain this better.

If you want to do it manually, then just go through each of your
install app looking for directory name 'static'. For django admin as
an example:-

$ python
>> import django


Now I know to find the static for admin in /home/kamal/lib/python2.6/
site-packages/Django-1.3.1-py2.6.egg/django/contrib/admin/static.

Do you mean install requirements for system libraries, databases. That sort
of thing? Or do you mean non python files, like scripts, documentation ?
