Er, no, its not and they never promised it would be.  You need to check the 
changes made for each release - as they say here:

"you will need to check *all* the backwards-incompatible changes..."

Re: How is best solution for builing chars in django (in admin too)?

[Jonty Needham]

We've used HighCharts with chartjs. It works; it's not ideal, but we use it
very extensively and it's customisable enough to use in a reasonable way.

However, depending on your requirement, it's probably more advisable get
your django view to return the appropriate json for a d3 front end.

HTH.

Re: Please help me with CBV template_name behaviour.

[JoeCodeswell]

Dear James,

Thanks for your reply. 

   1. I'll investigate using the "Django debug toolbar".
   2. re: "extraneous classes":  I was trying to make a point of how to 
   construct the second-2 classes from the first-2. The second-2 classes (CRUD 
   classes) are a *text copy* of the first-2 with the difference being that 
   the second-2 have their names changed, in the appropriate 2 places & (I 
   THOUGHT) they point to A DIFFERENT Crud Template ('contacts/crudlist.htm'). 
   The Crud Template IS NOT USED FOR RENDERING. INSTEAD the Template mentioned 
   in the first-2 classes is used.
   3. re: "template inheritance structure". Any Django Docs on this subject?

I'll investigate the Debug Toolbar & see what it tells me.


Again, THANKS, BIG TIME, James.


Love and peace,

Joe

django-rest-framework serializer for ContentType object

[Aamu Padi]

I am building an activity model, somewhat similar to this package
. It has an actor,
verb and the target.

class Activity(models.Model):
actor_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType,
related_name='actor_type_activities')
actor_id = models.PositiveIntegerField()
actor = GenericForeignKey('actor_type', 'actor_id')
verb = models.CharField(max_length=10)
target_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType,
related_name='target_type_activities')
target_id = models.PositiveIntegerField()
target = GenericForeignKey('target_type', 'target_id')
pub_date = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)


Now whenever a new object of whichever models (Tender, Job and News) is
created, a new Activity object is created, with the target being the
objects of any of these three models.

eg. user (actor) published (verb) title (target)

class Tender(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=256)
description = models.TextField()

class Job(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=256)
qualification = models.CharField(max_length=256)

class News(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL)
title = models.CharField(max_length=150)

To get this data I am making an API which will get me the required json
data. I am using django-rest-framework
 for this and very new with it.

class ActorSerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ('id', 'username', 'email')

class ActivitySerializer(serializers.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):
actor = ActorSerializer()
class Meta:
model = Activity
fields = ('url', 'actor', 'verb', 'pub_date')

In the above serializers, I knew that *actor *will be the *User*. And so I
used the User model for the *ActorSerializer class*. But as for the *target*,
it can be any of these three models (News/Job/Tender).

How can I make a serializer (eg. TargetSerialier class) for the ContentType
object so that I can use the target in the ActivitySerializer class field?

One nasty thing you may run into if you run parallel
programs is the use of multiple version of Python and
Django. If you use virtualenv and pyvenv to set up
multiple virtual environments and then point your IDE at
the one needed for a particular project, you should be
ok. You don't even have to activate the environments
because you are using them for storage of python and
django versions only.

Good luck

*Revenue* *Amount* *   Month* *  Year*
USD Int on FT Deposit 2035 january 2016
USD Int on Treasury Bills 34523432 january 2016
AUD Int on Bond 43243january 2016
Total Int on Foreign Asset 4324  january 2016
Dealing Profit 4324  january 2016
what i want to accomplish is, every time when the user upload and populate
database. I want to get the recent amount that was just upload  and minus
the previous amount.

for example: when the user upload and populate data from February, i want
to get amounts of February and minus the January amounts. i want do that
