Re: Static files not served

[der_fenix]

Is DEBUG is set to True or False?
And can you open static files by paths that are present in page source? I.e. 
by  path which generated from (for exampe) {% static "js/jquery.min.js" %}?

How create custom template tags and use Forms?

[MacVictor]

I create custom django template and used Form (this tag has to be 
universal):

This is file ratings.py use tags:

from django import template
from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
from Ratings.forms import RatingsForm

register = template.Library()

class RatingFormNode(template.Node):
def __init__(self, content, id, varname):
self.content = content.split('.')
self.varname = varname
self.id = template.Variable(id)

def render(self, context):
id = self.id.resolve(context)
content = ContentType.objects.get(app_label=self.content[0], 
model=str(self.content[1]).lower())
context[self.varname] = RatingsForm(initial={'content_type': 
content, 'object_id': id})
return ''

@register.tag(name='rating')
def rating(parser, token):
"""
{% rating appname.Modelname 1 as Newsletter_Form %}
"""
bits = token.split_contents()

if bits[3] != 'as':
raise template.TemplateSyntaxError, "third argument to the 
get_latest tag must be 'as'"

return RatingFormNode(bits[1], bits[2], bits[4])


and I use this tag in tempalte file:

{% rating appname.Modelname id as rating_form %}

{% csrf_token %}
{{ rating_form }}




 
this is urls.py:

from django.conf.urls import patterns, url

urlpatterns = patterns('Ratings.views',
url(r'^add/$', 'ratings_add', name='ratings_add'),
)

 
and create views to get the url:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
from django.http.response import Http404
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.shortcuts import redirect
from Ratings.forms import RatingsForm


def ratings_add(request):
if not request.method == 'POST':
return Http404
form = RatingsForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('post', 
args=[request.POST.get('url')]))
else:
request.session['form_data'] = request.POST
return redirect(reverse('post', args=[request.POST.get('url')]), 
form=form)

 
I use this tag in the template with the url: "/post/name-this-post/". Tag 
creates a form of "RatingForm" of the model "Rating". When the person 
viewing your page and use the form and form is valid this is work (save 
form and redirect to page "/post/name-this-post/"), but when an error 
occurs, you are redirected but does not display an error. How do I fix this?

how to properly use the m2m_changed signal?

[Roberto López López]

Hi,

I am trying to listen to the m2m_changed signal on my models, but I
can't make it work. Even the execution flow does not reach the linked
method!

class Project(models.Model):
departments = models.ManyToManyField('department.Department',
related_name='projects',

through='project.ProjectDepartmentMembership')

@receiver(m2m_changed, sender=Project.departments.through)
def _on_change_m2m(sender, instance, action, reverse, model, pk_set,
using, **kwargs):
pass

As interface I am using the django admin, and departments appears as an
inline of Project

Any help please? Thanks.

Cheers,

Roberto

I have tried as well using the post_save signal and overriding the

populated yet when reaching my code :-/

Re: Django-admin-tools unicode problem

[Sandro Dutra]

Como o Gilberto postou, pode haver um problema quando o teu editor de
textos salva o arquivo do template, tente abrir este template pelo bloco de
notas e ao 'salvar como' deve haver um campo lá embaixo para selecionar a
'Codificação', selecione UTF-8 e salve ou tente a configuração relativa no
editor de textos que está a utilizar, talvez isto resolva o problema.

Eu já tive esses problemas quando usava Notepad++, mas tenho utilizado
PyCharm e não tive mais este tipo de problema, há opções gratuitas que
devem lidar com isto também, tais como Sublime e Aptana.

What is the best practice to learn Django 1.5?

[subsnico]

Hi all,

I am very new to the world of Django and I have a couple questions 
regarding "how to learn it?":

My background is .NET development, mostly developing business logic tiers. 
I am very fluent with OOP, HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and have an entry-level 
knowledge of Python. Still, I have no knowledge of MVC (or MVT in this 
case) nor Django, nor command-line in *nix systems. I am in need to build 
quickly several web apps and due to the productivity gain in using Python 
rather than C# / Java, I naturally took a look at Django. I would like to 
thouroughly learn the framework and be able to bend it to my will as I 
think I'm in here for the long haul (kinda fed up with the Microsoft stack 
for development).

I have a need to do things like provide a web-based interface where users 
can find each other with criteria such as the geographical distance between 
them, upload images and edit them online, provide natural language search 
capabilities, etc... (just to highlight that I need to get to the level of 
knowing more than building a basic polls app or a simple blog).

As I understand, the entry point to learn Django is by completing the 
tutorial. What then? What would you recommend? As I've seen, most of the 
resources I can find online are outdated and target 1.4, would I still be 
able to learn from those and not getting frustrated? Also, I'm working on 
OS X and I have practically no knowledge of the command line. I glanced a 
little at how to deploy a Django site to production and quickly got lost... 
virtualenv, git, etc... No knowledge of that and looks a bit scary for a 
guy used to deploy an app by copying the compiled build using FTP.

So I'm asking you, experts... ...if you had to learn Django today, with no 
prior knowledge of previous versions, what would be your learning path?

Thank you for your time and looking forward to join what seems like a 
really cool community!

Help in finding how to learn Django

[subsnico]

Hi all,

What is the best way to learn Django 1.5 thouroughly? I have been a .NET 
developer and have a really good understanding of OOP, HTML5, CSS and 
JavaScript. I also have an entry-level knowledge of Python. I am completely 
new to MVC (or MVT, in this case).

I have a need to build apps with Django that provide users with features 
such as finding each other based on geographical distance, upload pictures 
and edit them online, natural language search, etc... (just to highlight 
that I need to know more than how to build a poll app or a simple blog).

My understanding is that the entry point to learn Django is by completing 
the tutorial at the Django project site. Then, what? What path would you 
recommend? I have seen that lots of learning resources on the web target 
versions lower than 1.5 and I couldn't really find books on 1.5. When 
reading reviews on learning material on 1.4, I often see they are outdated 
and not really applying to 1.5.

Also, I briefly looked at what it takes to deploy a Django app. Virtualenv, 
git, pip, etc... are all things unknown to me and it looks a bit scary for 
a guy used to deploy apps by uploading the compiled binaries through FTP.

Help in defining a clear path to learn how to bend Django to my will would 
be invaluable!

Thank you for your time.

Re: how to properly use the m2m_changed signal?

I am doing tests and the m2m_changed signal seems to work perfectly as
long as I have not defined a "through" model. Is there any trick here?

Thanks!

standalone script to call a view

[Larry Martell]

I am trying to write a standalone script that calls one of my views. I
can call the view, but I'm having a problem with proving what it
wants. One of the things the view needs is request.user, and that
looks like this:

(Pdb) type(request.user)

(Pdb) type(request)


I'm trying to create the objects it needs by instantiating WSGIRequest
and SimpleLazyObject, but I'm having issues proving what they need,
and I'm just going deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole. Maybe I'm
going about this the wrong way.

Anyone ever done something like this and can give me some advise on
what the best way to achieve this is?

Thanks!
-larry

Re: standalone script to call a view

[Sergiy Khohlov]

View is used for serving  web requests not  for  serving bash script .  Ok
you have called a view and receive a http page. Ia it expected result?
 I think more  easy way is create a function  which is be called by view
and your script.

Many thanks,

Serge

I don't really understand what you mean by "create a function which is
be called by view and your script." (Also, it's a python script not a
bash script.)

I understand how the views are normally used. In this case the view,
is normally called from a web page. It extracts data from the db and
downloads a CSV file. I want to do that same thing, except from a
script, not from the web page. Perhaps I have to go further down the
chain, and instead of calling the view, invoke what eventually gets
called. It's just that the view returns exactly what I need and if I
go any further down I'll have to duplicate some existing code, which
I'd rather not have to do.

Re: how to properly use the m2m_changed signal?

[Roberto López López]

Changing the m2m_changed signal on Project.departments.through to
post_save on ProjectDepartmentMembership did the trick.

m2m_changed signal seems to work as long as you don't explicitly define
the "through" model.

Re: What is the best practice to learn Django 1.5?

The way I learned it was by reading the offical free django book. According 
to me, the tutorial app does not teach you lot of django. The first chapter

AFAICT, your situation looks like this:

you have this:

def myview(request, maybesomeparams...):
    does lots of things
   return HttpResponse(...templates,...)

now you want that "lot of things" from the command line, but to call
view you must create a request and interpret the response, because the
view function works only within a web request/response cycle.


you can refactor it like this:


def utilityfunction(user, otherparams...):
   ... does some things (with database? no matter)...
   return somepythondata


def myview(request, .):
   # get data
   data = utilityfunction(request.user, .)
   # use data to create response
   return HttpResponse(... templates...(data)...)


def mycommandlinefunc(...):
   # find user (with username?)
   user=User.objects.get(username=)
   # get data
   data = utilityfunction(user, .)
   # use data to create output
   # maybe using a different template
   print RenderToString(template, data)


the point is not to call the view function, because it does things in
a very web-specific way, but instead encapsulate whatever is common to
both the view and the commandline operation into a separate function
and use that in both cases.

Filter more than one level in the related field

[Hélio Miranda]

Hi!
I have my application django-tastypie as BD and MongoDB
But I have a problem, it is unable to filter on more than one level, I will 
give an example to explain better.
I have the following:
*class EntrepreneurResource (resources.MongoEngineResource):*
**
* country = fields.ReferencedListField (of = 
'Football.Resource.CountryResource'*
*  attribute = 'country', full = True, null = True)*
**
* class Meta:*

When I want to make a filter in the Entrepreneur country do the following:
*
http://localhost:8080/onpitch/api/v1/Entrepreneur/?country=51cd93e18774a713bc1f5763
*

And he returns the entrepreneur to have the country with that id

But now if I as you want, eg a filter like this:
*http://localhost:8080/onpitch/api/v1/Entrepreneur/?country__name=Portugal*

I do not return anything []

Someone can help me? What am I doing wrong?

Re: Help in finding how to learn Django

[Mike Dewhirst]

On 28/06/2013 5:49pm, subsn...@gmail.com wrote:

Hi all,

What is the best way to learn Django 1.5 thouroughly? I have been a .NET
developer and have a really good understanding of OOP, HTML5, CSS and
JavaScript. I also have an entry-level knowledge of Python. I am
completely new to MVC (or MVT, in this case).

I have a need to build apps with Django that provide users with features
such as finding each other based on geographical distance, upload
pictures and edit them online, natural language search, etc... (just to
highlight that I need to know more than how to build a poll app or a
simple blog).

My understanding is that the entry point to learn Django is by
completing the tutorial at the Django project site. Then, what? What
path would you recommend?


See if you can abstract one or more sub-sections of your planned greater 
project and choose the smallest or most self-contained one to start 
with. Your objective is to turn it into a re-usable app (or library) for 
all your future projects which might need it. Think in boundaries rather 
than technicalities.


Omitting everything else, build that one.

I have seen that lots of learning resources on

the web target versions lower than 1.5 and I couldn't really find books
on 1.5. When reading reviews on learning material on 1.4, I often see
they are outdated and not really applying to 1.5.


Most, if not all, books and material relating to Django 1.0 will work on 
all versions of Django up to 1.9. So they are still valuable.




Also, I briefly looked at what it takes to deploy a Django app.
Virtualenv, git, pip, etc... are all things unknown to me and it looks a
bit scary for a guy used to deploy apps by uploading the compiled
binaries through FTP.


You have no choice. You simply have to have a repository. Git or 
Mercurial seem to be flavour du jour. I use Subversion but I'm 
old-fashioned.


Deployment strategies vary so you need to figure out what suits you. I 
develop in Windows, commit to a Linux hosted repo and use Buildbot on 
the same VM to completely blow away the staging site and reconstitute it 
from the repo. That happens automatically on every commit.


The production server gets updated manually when/as required but by 
scripted export from a tagged production release in the repo.


It isn't scary. It is safely reproduceable. CSS and Javascript are scary.

Pip is dead easy so you need to look more deeply. Python has a number of 
installer tools but pip seems to be the way forward.


Virtualenv is necessary if you are developing in different areas. For 
example, if you have a "legacy" app to support you really require a 
"legacy" environment within which to support it. Modern developers see 
enough of this requirement to simply do it for all their projects so 
they don't have to think about it. If you only have one project you 
might delay Virtualenv until you need it. You will know when that time 
comes.




Help in defining a clear path to learn how to bend Django to my will
would be invaluable!


M. I thought that way in the beginning. Going with the Django flow 
is much more productive.


Welcome :)

Mike

Hi Hélio,

  As mentioned

it's not really appropriate to consistently cross-post your questions. 
 Folks on either list won't be aware if there question has already been 
answered by someone else, it's more difficult for others to follow the

I see this post on both the `tastypie` and `django developers` mailing 
lists - please try to just choose one appropriate forum and post there.

Many thanks,

Thanks for the reply. I got this going. I ended up instantiating the

that.

Re: A PHP framework with some Django features?

[Tiago Almeida]

Hi ,
try Symfony2.
Symfony template language has the same syntax as django templates. Only the 
template filters have different names but similar functions. 
It does not have an admin as good as django's. There are third party apps 
(called bundles in the context of symfony) that try to do that (e.g. 
SonataAdminBundle). Never used it though. It does however have a generator 
of views and controllers. It's a management command that you run for a 
specific Model and it generates views to edit, create new instances, 
delete, etc.
It generates the DB schema from your models.
I like it but it's not as clean as Django (lots of config files, huge 
nested folder structure etc...)
my 2 cent...

Re: ANN: django-otp and friends: one-time passwords and trusted agents

[Jason Arnst-Goodrich]

I just stumbled on this and it looks absolutely amazing. I do have one 
request though: can we get a sample project up that uses Google's 
authenticator (or anything else).

This looks like the best solution for two factor authentication for Django 
but I don't think many people will know where to start when it comes to 
using it (myself included).

Re: A PHP framework with some Django features?

Nobody's ever switched FROM Django TO PHP as far as I know :)

But like others have already said - there's plenty of good frameworks that 
accomplish the same things Django does in PHP. Unless you truly love PHP 
I'd take the time to learn Django instead. :P

maybe not, but returns to PHP might be common.

still many people take PHPs ease of deployment as a failure of other
schemes (not realizing that creating a web application separate from
the web server is a big plus), so i don't find surprising that some of
them don't take the time to reap the benefits and get back to what
they know.

I don't know what you mean.  You can use apache mod_wsgi to have apache
directly serve Django web apps[1], same as PHP.

Using django tags in a blog post

body = models.TextField()


I would like to be able to use django tags in the blog post, such as {% url 
'' %} and {% trans "" %}.


I tried using the |safe filter and passing a mark_safe() value but they 
don't convert the django tags to html.

in most cases, apache out of the box will let you simply drop *.php
files anywhere you have static files and they'll be interpreted.  many
people consider that an advantage.

Yeah.  It's easier, true, no need to do apache configuration.  I see your
point.

On the other hand, scary.  Putting on a sysadmin hat, the possibility of a
PHP file accidentally lying around in certain places being able to be
executed remotely would scare me.  You _should_ be forced to do apache
configuration, so that you tell apache explicitly what code can be executed.

Re: configure apache for shared hosting using fcgi

[gilberto dos santos alves]

please take steps bellow, for understand what is going on.

for run django app on shared host
where we have apache2 and fcgi module installed
like hostgator.com

step 01 - create symbolic link for static (css, img, js) 


1.1 if in your provider there is a 
/usr/local/lib/pythonx.y/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/static

try

ex a: 

ln -s /usr/local/lib/pythonx.y/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/static 
/home/your-user/public_html/static

or use your own instaled version of python/django static files

ex b:
 
ln -s /home/your-user/django/v16a1/django/contrib/admin/static 
/home/your-user/public_html/static


this solve style,css etc for admin app of django


step 02 - .htacces for directory main app http
==

folder ex:  /home/your-user/public_html/rundjango/
what url is: http://your-url-dot/rundjango/admin

AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ mysite.fcgi/$1 [QSA,L]


step 03 - index.fcgi (like index.html or index.php)
===

because we use pytz (for handle datetime) it is installed with 
"easy_install pytz",
so it may be declared on sys.path.

this is my index.fcgi 
after creation you may chmod +x index.fcgi for allow run mode

#!/usr/local/bin/python

import sys, os, user
sys.path.insert(0, "/home/your-user/mycode/mysite")
sys.path.insert(0, "/home/your-user/python/pytz-2013b-py2.6.egg")


# Switch to the directory of your project.
os.chdir("/home/your-user/mycode/mysite")

# Set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable.
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "mysite.settings"

from django.core.servers.fastcgi import runfastcgi
runfastcgi(method="threaded", daemonize="false")


step 04 - verify environment vars $PATH and $PYTHONPATH
===

this .bash_profile config your env setup when you login
or your apps runs (ex. apache2, etc)
verify that your PYTHONPATH is correct setup
in this case we could use some different python version
that one is default (ex. 2.6, 2.7, 3.2)

# .bash_profile

# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi

# User specific environment and startup programs

PATH=$HOME/bin:$HOME/my-other-app-dir:$PATH
PYTHONPATH=$HOME/python
export PYTHONPATH
export PATH



step 05 - verify if your env is ok
==

please logout and login for verify your env var is ok

issue this commands:

echo $PATH
echo $PYTHONPATH

run this small codes of python for verification

python 



>>> import sys
>>> for whatlocal in sys.path:
...  print whatlocal
... 

Be Happy!

Ajax

[Nafiul Islam]

In which version, will Django natively support Ajax? I'm curious because 
you need Ajax for almost any site these days, and Django not supporting it 
natively has become a bit of a hindrance for me.

Re: Ajax

[Russell Keith-Magee]

I'm not sure what you mean. Django completely supports AJAX right now.

Django is a server-side framework, and the only part of AJAX that is
server-side is the API call.

An API call is just a view that returns JSON/XML instead of HTML. You can
write that right now in Django.

If you want a library to make it even easier, there are several options,
including TastyPie and Django-REST-Framework.

The client-side part of the AJAX problem is outside the domain of Django.
There are plenty of good client-side frameworks; pick one, and you'll find
it can talk perfectly well with Django.

Yours,
Russ Magee %-)
