In the sample code, CBV has to attached to FormView and has to provide one 
'form_class' member. Another extra form is set by context_data. It is still 
not perfect. For example, consider a dynamic formset with which you can 
create new objects by adding new forms in UI. In this case, it is not easy 
to handle all forms in one view.

Multiple django web applications

[drakko]

Hello django gurus!

I wanted to kindly ask if there is a way how to keep two django web 
application on the same server?
I have heard that it might be possible by using virtualenv. But as I'm new 
to python and web development I wanted to find out if what kind of 
approaches there are to achieve this goal.

Thank You!!

Re: Multiple django web applications

[Rafael E. Ferrero]

I'm not a guru but...
If you want to run two differents django projects with different versions
of django then i think that virtualenv can help you...  are some tutorial
somewhere.
If you want to run two differentes django projects with same version of
django then just use virtual on appache (i do this on my server for two
small projects) or similar stuff for nginx or lighttpd.

Hope to help you

Re: example for project with user login

[Rafael E. Ferrero]

Please, can you be more specific?
Did you mean on Admin Interface? (just activate admin)
In your views? (use decorator)
in your templates? (use request.user.is_authenticated() on a if block)

Are more complex ways to do this by your own or you have apps to do this
like allauth (who give you a way to your visitors to login with facebook
id, or twitter, etc)

hope to help you on this

Homepage in Django

[Iuri Machado]

Hello everyone, I've got a silly question. 

Let's say I've create a project called CAFis. My folder structure should be 
like:

CAFis
  - CAFis
  |  - __init__.py
  |  - settings.py
  |  - urls.py
  |  - wsgi.py

If I want to create a homepage for my project, should I create a views.py, 
inside the subfolder CAFis, with only a function called index and then 
create a templates/static subfolder inside the subfolder CAFis?

(New structure)

CAFis
  - CAFis
  |  - templates
  |  |  - index.html
  |
  |  - static
  |  |  - foo.js
  |  |  - foo.css
  |
  |  - __init__.py
  |  - settings.py
  |  - urls.py
  |  - views.py
  |  - wsgi.py

Thanks in advance!

I.

Thats its one aproach other its to handle directly with your webserver. I

Re: Multiple django web applications

[Ben Lopatin]

drakko, using virtualenv will certainly help in isolating your projects and 
dependencies. You can host both on the same server, how you go about doing 
this will depend in part on your setup. If you're using Apache with 
mod_wsgi I think - if memory serves correctly - that you could just use 
different vhosts. Using gunicorn just run each Django app on a different 
port.

Re: example for project with user login

[Rafael E. Ferrero]

in settings.py
in TEMPLATE_DIRS put all your templates folders where django go to find them

in MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
 )

in INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.auth',  #important to login and logout
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.sites',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'django.contrib.admin',
'YourProject.YourApp',
)

and create this
LOGIN_URL = '/url/to/login/'
LOGOUT_URL = '/url/to/logout/'
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/url/to/your/view'


in your general urls.py

from django.contrib.auth.views import login, logout_then_login
from django.conf.urls.defaults import patterns, url, include
from django.conf import settings

from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^YourApp/', include('YourProject.YourApp.urls')),
(r'^login/$', login, {'template_name': 'login.djhtml'}),
(r'^logout/$', logout_then_login),
# For admin
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
url(r'^media/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {
'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT,
}),
   )



in YourApp/urls.py
from django.conf.urls.defaults import patterns, url

urlpatterns = patterns('YourProject.YourApp.views',
url(r'^$', 'YourViewName'),
)



need a base.djhtml in YourTemplateFolder
in YourTemplateFolder/login.djhtml

{% extends "base.djhtml" %}
{% block cuerpo %}
{% if form.errors %}
   Su nombre de usuario y contraseña no coinciden. Por favor intente
nuevamente.
{% endif %}

{% csrf_token %}
Nombre de Usuario
Clave de Usuario



{% endblock %}




in your YourApp/views.py

from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from django.template.context import RequestContext

@login_required
def yourViewName(Request):
#your code here
return render_to_response('yourTemplate', {'YourDict': yourDict},
  context_instance=RequestContext(Request))




I think that something like that will work, its copy of a small project
mine in django 1.3.1, its admin somewher ther but you can eliminate. (in
www.fsorgosuardi.com.ar/dj/login its this code running... to see the site
just go to www.fsorgosuardi.com.ar)

you can, later, try with
allauthapp... its really
cool stuff

new django template

[Frédéric Bouin]

I am trying to edit some things in django and am running into a few 
problems as I am quite new to it.

I am working off an existing django configuration with templates that 
currently work, but I don't really understand how to create new templates. 
If I create a new .html file in my templates folder in "myprojects" and 
then declare the new template under cms_templates = (...) in settings.py 
nothing happens. Am I missing a step to get the template to upload and 
appear in my cms?

I also had a problem with an existing template, when I try to go to the 
contact page I am told that the template does not exist: 
http://paul.evansoderberg.com/en/contact/
The template is declared under "cms_templates", the file exists in the 
templates folder, and the page is created in django cms, yet I get this 
error message.

Help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Re: Determine gender from first name

[Casper Strømgren]

Hey Demetrio

You can use http://genderize.io which is a free API.

A problem with determining a gender from a name is that people can call 
their children almost anything they'd like. Genderize.io tries to solve 
this by collecting data from social networks (where people can also call 
themselves whatever they'd like). Furthermore, it has the ability of 
filtering results by country or language.

It also provides a certainty factor along with the gender. So you can set a 
bar of when you want to trust it.

CMS base to start with?

[Anton Melser]

Hi,

I'm pretty new to Django/Python and I'm starting a fairly major project 
(hopefully next 2+ years of my life :-)). If all goes well, there will be 
several developers on the project in a year or two - getting our hands 
dirty is what it's all about. Use something I know? PHP/.NET/Java - no 
thanks! It's going to be a long road and I've quickly seen the superiority 
of Python and the ease of development with Django and I'm definitely in for 
the long haul so... 

There is quite a bit of functionality that has been written 50k times 
before and I'd rather not reinvent, like advanced user management (social 
everything yadda yadda), some nice templates to start with (supporting 
bootstrap 3 within the next 2-3 months or so) and dynamic theming, blog, 
article management, easy plugging to search backends, content and user 
rating, unit tests, etc.

Beta versions are fine as long as the latest sexy version will go stable 
within 2-3 months and contributing back is a given, at least while it 
remains viable.

So I've been looking around at what to start with and there is quite a bit 
of choice. Django-CMS, Mezzanine, FeinCMS to name but a few... 

The stuff I refer to above is stuff I would REALLY like to have out of the 
box (ie, it's what we're starting with), for the rest (marketplace, 
mapping, geo-location, kitchen sink, etc.) we just need for it to be easy 
to add new modules which by then I/we should be able to write from scratch 
anyway, if needed. Other stuff we probably don't need at all like 
multi-lang.

I guess the only other particularity is that we are going to need excellent 
caching - we are expecting around 90% of the traffic on 2-3 days and 
serious peaking within that. Going PAAS is not out of the question but if 
we can get away with some advanced caching then I'd rather start with that 
and then if cashflow warrants it re-evaluate the situation later. 

So, should I start with a CMS? If so, which one? What I'm really looking 
for is a base to start with that I don't end up saying "why the #!@& did I 
start with X" in 12 months time...

Any opinions or insults are most welcome!

Thanks,
Anton

Re: Not able to create an simple application using DB (syncdb error)

[Bill Freeman]

Not all that useful unless you un-hide the file extensions.

I'm guessing that there are manage.py scripts in both the upper and lower
blog1 directories.  For recent Djangos, manage.py should only be in the
upper directory. The lower directory contains settings.py, urls.py, wsgo/[u
amd __init__.py.

I see that you are in the lower directory when you try to run it, which is
also wrong.  cd up a level and try again.

Are you working from a book written for an older version of Django, or are
you trying to port an project written for an older version to a modern
Django?  I can't see how you arrive at the directory contents that you have.

The problem is the amount of choice. There seem to be many great packages 
there but I was hoping someone from the community with more intimate 
knowledge of what is there might be able to shed some light on the subject.

Might be an idea to write a one page business plan. Amazing how quickly 
it all becomes clear as soon as the business objectives are nailed down. 
After that I would guess only one of those would stand out for you.

Hey Anton,

>From my experience if it's a 2 year project you're building don't use a
CMS. Start with a plain Django project and then add apps you need. All
these CMSs will just lock you in and become more of a hinderance then help.

I also recommend building your own admin before you invest too much time
into customising the default admin.

Cheers,

M
