Re: Impossible? Django with NTLM SSO auth on windows?

[Branko Majic]

I've set-up a Kerberised environment some time ago, but I can't recall
what docs I've been reading back then, so no recommendations there. I
would recommend reading a little about it on Wikipedia (for start) to
get the high-level overview.

The environment I've set-up had relied upon MIT Kerberos
implementation (and to top it off I also used PKINIT), although I was
able to have the Windows 7 clients authenticate against it. So no idea
what happens if using AD.

You're probably not the only person on the planet, but it's probably
avoided solution due to some issues you can get. A small advice -
_always_ first verify that the time on your machines is good. 90% of
problems I had were related to clock differences between server,
Kerberos servers, and user workstations.

Best regards

Trouble in trying django form wizard example!

[Dilip M]

Hi,

I am new to Django and trying out form wizards. I am trying the example
mentioned in
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/formtools/form-wizard/#wizard-template-for-each-form
.

After 'submit'ting the data for 'ContactForm1' I am not getting
'ContactForm2'?

I am just trying to print the date I key in ContactForm1 and ContactForm2
in some sample template!



Please help!

Thanks, Dilip

raw_id_fields: How to show a name instead of id?

[Almudena Vila Forcén]

Customizing a Django Admin panel, I'm using 
raw_id_fields
 to 
select a ForeignKey from a Model which has thousands of elements, because 
the default select-box drop-down is inconvenient with so many elements.

It works but it shows the id as can be seen on this image:

 [image: enter image description here] 

Is there any way to show the name or other field instead of the id? Or, is 
there any better way to accomplish this than using raw_id_fields?

This is my code in models.py:

class Structure(MPTTModel):
name = models.CharField(max_length=200, unique=True, verbose_name = 
_('name'))
parent = TreeForeignKey('self', null=True, blank=True, 
related_name='children', verbose_name = _('parent'))

def __unicode__(self):
return u"%s" % (self.name)

In admin.py:

class StructureAdmin(tree_editor.TreeEditor):
search_fields = ('name',)
raw_id_fields = ('parent',)

Thanks in advance.

I don't understand precisely what you mean, but two of the arguments
to generic_inlineformset_factory() are 'form' and 'formset', allowing
you to specify a different class for the form objects created, and a
different base class for the formset created. This is generally true
for all formset_factory() functions.

This allows you almost unlimited flexibility in controlling how the
forms are generated, how they behave and so forth. Eg, if I wanted the
formset to take an additional argument on construction, and set that
argument on each instance the formset creates/modifies, I could do
something like this:


  class TeamBaseFormset(BaseModelFormSet):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
  self.manager = kwargs.pop('manager')
def save(self, commit=True, *args, **kwargs):
  instances = super(TeamBaseFormset, self).save(commit=False,
*args, **kwargs)
  for team in instances:
team.manager = self.manager
if commit:
  team.save()
  return instances

  TeamFormset = modelformset_factory(Team, formset=TeamBaseFormset)

  form = TeamFormset(manager=manager)

Since you have control over the formset class and the form, you can
override or change any behaviour that you want.

Cheers

Tom

Re: django DB optimization

[graeme]

10,000 people does not sound like too heavy a load. How often will they 
check their schedules?

If you are looking up items by day and user, then indices on day and 
(foreign key on) user should be enough to handle a much heavier load.

If you do find you need caching, using Django's built in cache framework 
first, then maybe something like memcached for db queries.

I would also look at things like connection pooling before you decide you 
need caching.

I need to create two formset (generic_inlineformset_factory). When i create 
formset in template used formset_create_company and formset_create_private, 
field 
names are the same.

c['form_create_company'] = User1()

c['form_create_private'] = User2()

c['formset_create_company'] = 
generic_inlineformset_factory(SpecialData, form=SpecialDataForm, extra=1, 
max_num=2)

c['formset_create_private'] = 
generic_inlineformset_factory(SpecialData, form=SpecialDataForm, extra=1, 
max_num=2)

{{ form_create_company.name }} = created: ''
{{ formset_create_private.name }} = created: ''

I need:

{{ form_create_company.name }} = created: ''
{{ formset_create_private.name }} = created: ''

I had a go at something similar a while back [1] (well, a very cut-down 
version of what you guys are attempting), and for that I used configglue's 
in-built support for local settings that override the project settings [2], 
but I'm assuming in this case we'd not want to force juju'ised projects to 
use configglue either.

I've not tried this on any production app, or thought about it more than 
the example below - perhaps others can say the obvious issues they see - 
but one idea that comes to mind is just reversing how people normally split 
up their settings files, something like:

{{{
$ django-admin startproject test_settings
$ cd test_settings/
$ echo 'from django.conf import settings;print("Debug is: %s. LangCode is: 
%s" % (settings.DEBUG, settings.LANGUAGE_CODE))' | ./manage.py shell --plain

(prints "Debug is: True. LangCode is: en-us")

$ echo -e "from test_settings.settings import *\nDEBUG = False" > 
local_settings.py
$ echo 'from django.conf import settings;print("Debug is: %s. LangCode is: 
%s" % (settings.DEBUG, settings.LANGUAGE_CODE))' | ./manage.py shell 
--plain --settings=local_settings

(prints "Debug is: False. LangCode is: en-us")
}}}

Django admin - Insert into another table

[Bora Aymete]

I want to insert into another table when saving a record on Django admin 
panel. For example I have a model named device and I want to create a 
device and keep it in a table, but whenever I make a change to the device, 
I want to make a record history of the changes. Is it possible to do so?

Re: Django 1.4.3 contact_form

else:

  form = ContactForm(initial={'subject': 'Me agrada su sitio!'})

 

#this indent below MUST also match the indent for the request.method

so that with any condition based on the request method, form will always be

Re: New to Django & Programming - Trying to work with the tutorial. How to edit mysite/settings.py

[Peter Chibunna]

There's exactly no command that you need to achieve what you are asking 
here. The "settings.py" file is a file -like the name suggests- that 
contains settings for your django web application. This includes database 
pointers, database credentials, applications in your site, and all those 
things like "middlewares", etc. Django is not as difficult as you are 
looking at it from that "settings.py" point of view. I'd like to ask you 
some questions to ascertain what level of help you require: Your developing 
platform (Windows, Linux or Mac)? Have you been programming in other 
languages like PHP, JSP, ASP, ... ? 08073207201

If you're aiming for a PaaS-style charm for Django, then trying to emulate 
The Twelve-Factor App [1] and it's opinions on configuration [2] would be a 
good starting point. Basically, if there are things specific to the 
environment then they should be in environment variables, not in generated 
or modified config files.

+1 - but Django doesn't support env vars overriding settings out of the box
(although configglue does enable this) which means forcing people using the
charm to update their settings (rather than just encouraging good
practise). That said, it might be a small (and worthwhile) thing to ask of
people wanting to use the charm. (ie. to use this charm, your settings need
to read the following env vars...) If not, writing a local_settings.py that
overrides the required settings from the env may work:

local_settings.py:
{{{
import os
from userproject.settings import *

LANGUAGE_CODE = os.environ['DJANGO_LANGUAGE_CODE']
...
}}}

Are there other better options that wouldn't force people to change their
code to use the charm?

For the charm to be of sufficient value, it needs to be opinionated, 
otherwise it's going to suffer from trying to work out-of-the-box for 
everyone.

This is not working, the to: never gets called.

from:
user_order = Signal(providing_args=["request", "order"])
user_order.send(sender=None, request=request, order=order)


to:
def user_order_handler(sender, **kwargs):
order = kwargs('order')

user_order.connect(user_order_handler)

Using a receiver attached to the post_save signal of your Order model would 
certainly be more efficient than polling the database. You could also 
generate the e-mail inside the save() method of your model. However you 
need to be careful as both may block your application.

Take a look at django-notifications app 
- https://github.com/pinax/django-notification

I think it should be able to help you.

you can check the example of it on this SO thread

I tried your link https://github.com/pinax/django-notification
but it is not working.

is there anything wrong with my code to prevent the signal from working?

get_form in formwizard gives validation error

[Rob]

In a formwizard I want to use a custom query, based on previous choices. 
The form renders well, but when the step is submitted I get an "Select a 
valid choice. That choice is not one of the available choices." error

Here is the get_form part in my views.py (simplified):

def get_form(self, step=None, data=None, files=None):
form = super(BoekingWizard, self).get_form(step, data, files)
if step == 'step3':
form.fields['Activiteit'].queryset = Activiteit.objects.all()
   return form

Here is the part from my forms.py:

class BoekForm3(forms.Form):
Activiteit = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=Activiteit.objects.none(), 
widget=forms.RadioSelect, empty_label=None)

Anybody an idea about this?

Rob

Re: django DB optimization

[Rui Silva]

Hi Subodh,

10k records isn't that much. Nonetheless you should test your 
application with high loads to assert if the database performance is an 
issue.


If the test results show that the database performance may be a problem, 
you should check if the tables you use are properly indexed and look for 
a caching mechanism.


Configuring cache in Django is fairly easy. I use Memcached as cache 
backend with Django. I have a database of about 6 Million users (mysql), 
and on each of the 3 frontends running Django, I have an instance of 
memcache running.

Hi,

I have implemented a django application that willl maintain schedule
for 100s of people that work for a company. People access this
schedule using desktop or mobile device to lookup their task list for
current day, this week etc.

Now the question is how do I scale this -- example when user joe looks
up his schedule for today essentially I end up doing a query get
records for today, where user name is joe. Same thing would happen
when Mary looks up her schedule, we do DB lookup for records for Mary.

I am worried that when 10,000 people start to query this my database
is going to become a bottleneck (?) Should I be implementing some of
home grown daemon that caches the data associated with most common
queries and serve the data out of that daemon.

I am sure I am not the first one to encounter this issue, how do
people scale their query response time when using django as their
framework.

(Hope this Q made sense...)

A generic 'search' framework for forms?

[Subodh Nijsure]

I have lot of forms in my django application and would like to present
a generic way for end user to do search query, is there a package out
there that allows one to construct such a thing?

Example I have a form that shows customers it has fields like
customer_name, customer_address , I have another form that shows
technicians information such as first_name, last_name, location.

I would like to add a "widget" at top of the customer form so that end
user can say, I want to search by name, type search string and all
entries that match that search string will show up. Same for
technician form I want them to be able to pick they want to search by
first_name or last_name and type the search string to narrow the
listing.

Thanks

Ah, I see. generic_inline_formset returns a type, not an instance, so
I'm not sure how your "c['formset_create_company']", which is a type,
not an actual form instance, is used. However, the simple answer is
that a type derived from FormSet will take 'prefix' as an argument
during construction. So, wherever you are constructing the formset,
provide the prefix.

Eg:

SpecialDataInlineFormSet = generic_inlineformset_factory(SpecialData,
form=SpecialDataForm, extra=1, max_num=2)

c['formset_create_company'] = SpecialDataInlineFormSet(prefix='company')
c['formset_create_private'] = SpecialDataInlineFormSet(prefix='private')


Cheers

Tom
