Script to call loaddata on multiple fixtures
I have quite a number of fixtures that I call loaddata to insert fixtures into my sqlite database using the following syntax: python ./manage.py loaddata ./apps/addresses/fixtures/cities.json python ./manage.py loaddata ./apps/addresses/fixtures/addresses.json ... I would like to create a script to call all of these, so I can insert them all at once. I do not want to combine all of the json files. To do this, would I create a py script similar to my bootstrap.py script? My bootstrap.py script executes subprocess.call() on all packages listed in my requirements txt file. Am I going down the right path with this, or is there an easier way? L J -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Script to call loaddata on multiple fixtures
That worked great. I haven't done much shell scripting, but it was easier than I thought. Thanks, Shawn!

Re: Script to call loaddata on multiple fixtures
Thanks, Dennis.
Some of the fixtures are order dependent.
I will have to do some more research on how to use glob.glob() and
spawn.
For now, just adding the list of python loaddata commands to a shell
script seem to work great.
Thanks again for the info!

Returning template data from a ManyToMany model
I am having trouble figuring out how to query the database and return
the results in a format that my template can render appropriately.
I have a model that has a ManyToMany field:
class Student()
...
parents = models.ManyToManyField('parents.Parent', blank=True,
null=True)
...
The Parent model looks like:
class Parent()
...
first_name models.CharField(max_length=30)
last_name models.CharField(max_length=30)
gender models.CharField(max_length=1)
...
def __unicode__(self):
return u'Parent : %s %s' % (self.first_name, self.last_name)
The method in my view currently looks something like this:
def get_parents( request, template )
id=request.GET['id']
template_data["parents"] = Parent.objects.filter(student=id)
return render_to_response( template, template_data,
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
The template data is returning the data in the format:
[ , ]
Instead, I need the template data formatted with the other fields in
my Parent model, like:
[ ,
]
The format doesn't have to be exactly like the above, but I need to
include the index, and to return some of the other fields defined in
my Parent model.
My template will look something like:
{% for parent in parents.object_list %}
{{parent.id}}
{{parent.first_name}}
{{parent.last_name}}
{% endfor %}
Can someone give me some ideas about how I can change my view to
return my template data in a more useable format?

That makes sense now.
If the full objects are already there, then this should work great!

URL resolution in a Django template
I am using ajax to update a list of participants in my html page,
based on the student id selected.
I am trying to figure out how Django knows what path to look to find
my method.
Does it just go through all of the urls.py files until it finds a
method that matches the url request?
$('#id_student').change(function(){
var student_id = $(this).val();
$.get('{% url get_required_meeting_participants %}',
{id:student_id}, function(data) {
$(".participants").last().append(data);
});
});
In other words, if I have two methods with the same name, but each in
a different directory, how would Django know which method to call?

Trouble with query syntax in Django view
I have a Student model that stores information about a student,
including the student's teacher.
The teacher's information is stored in the Employee model that
inherits from the Person Model.
I am having trouble figuring out how to query the teacher, when a
student id is passed as an ajax argument to the view function.
I have no trouble returning the data about the parents and the
student, but my filter for querying the teacher info is incorrect.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can query for the teacher information
based on the models below?
#models.py
class Student(Person):
grade = models.ForeignKey('schools.Grade')
school = models.ManyToManyField('schools.School', blank=True,
null=True, related_name="school")
parents = models.ManyToManyField('parents.Parent', blank=True,
null=True)
teacher = models.ForeignKey(Employee, blank=True, null=True,
related_name='teacher')
class Employee(Person):
''' Employee model inherit Person Model'''
role=models.ForeignKey(EmployeeType, blank=True, null=True)
user=models.ForeignKey(User)
schools =
models.ManyToManyField(School,blank=True,null=True)
# views.py
def get_required_meeting_participants(request, template):
try:
id=request.GET['id']
except:
id=None
parents = Parent.objects.filter(student=id)
student = Student.objects.filter(pk=id)
teacher = Employee.objects.filter(pk=student.teacher_id) #this
line is incorrect...help, please?
data = {
'parents': parents,
'student': student,
'teacher': teacher,
}
return
render_to_response(template,data,

How to get the Exception Type
I am trying to add exception handling to my application. I have been reading the documentation on Django Exceptions: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/exceptions/ I also found the list of Exceptions (both Django and Python). But for testing purposes, I need a way to handle all exceptions and to log the exception types: try: addresses = Address.objects.all() except Exception: logger.debug(Exception.Type) How do I catch all types of exceptions? And, how do I get the exception type? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Saving ManyToMany models
I am having trouble saving entities to my models that have ManyToMany
relationships.
I have a Student object that inherits from a Person:
class Person(models.Model):
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
middle_name = models.CharField(max_length=30, blank=True)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=30)
...
class Student(Person):
parents = models.ManyToManyField('parents.Parent', blank=True,
null=True)
...
class Parent(Person):
occupation = models.CharField(max_length=128, blank=True)
In my view, I create a new Student:
newStudent = Student(first_name='Donald',
middle_name='R', last_name='Duck')
newStudent.save()
I also create a Parent and add the new parent to the list of parents for
the student:
newParent = Parent(first_name='Ronald',
middle_name='T', last_name='Duck')
newParent.save()
newStudent.parents.add(newParent)
However, when I call save_m2m(), it throws an error:
newStudent.save_m2m()
Perhaps I do not need to call save_m2m(). Does the relationship get saved
to the database when I call the add() method?

What happens underneath when I save to a model with ManyToMany relationships?
I have a Python script that will be called daily from a scheduled service
or daemon.
The script uses MySQLdb to read a csv file and import data into a MySQL
database that is used in my Django application.
Some of the models contain ManyToMany relationships. I am directly
inserting the relationships.
I thought that this was working great until I tried to query the models
from my Django view.
For example, I have a list of students, and each student has one or more
parents. Even though the students_student_parents table that stores the
student/parent relationship is updated by the script, when I run the query
to get a list of parents, the list is empty.
importedStudent = get_object_or_404(Student, pk=studentId)
logger.info(importedStudent)
the_parents = importedStudent.parents.all().values_list('id',
flat=True)
It appears that I have one of two choices:
1) Figure out what really happens under the covers when I add a parent to a
student in a Django form and call save() or save_m2m().
2) Instead of inserting data into my tables using MySQLdb cursor execute
methods, would it be better for me to create a service in my Django
application that my script can call?
Any suggestions?

Dajaxice Unresolved Import

Just adding a note for anyone else struggling with a similar 'unresolved import' problem... This article explains in details how to modify the PYTHONPATH if you decide to go that route. http://www.stereoplex.com/blog/understanding-imports-and-pythonpath I don't prefer to use this method, but I now understand how django is able to find imported libraries.

Re: How to reinstall Python Interpreters?
Yes. I used the apt-get install command to install dajaxice, but it installs an older version, and the installer for the newer version isn't done. The installer for the older version does not put anything in the dist- packages directory. I'm trying to figure out how to manually install it, but I'm not making any progress.

Virtualenv and Dajaxice up...Now looking for Django Twitter Birds
I can't tell you how helpful this User Group has been to me! With the help of several helpful responses and a lot of great articles out there, I was finally able to install virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper and get dajaxice working. I wrote all about it on my blog, if there are any newbies wanting some consolidated info about it, ping me. Now I am curious to know if anyone out there in the Django community uses Twitter or has a Blog. If so, please Tweet me your blog @ljayadams. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Dajax, what do you think about it?
My opinion would be to add it in. But, I am not as experienced with Dajaxice as others may be. I just know it took me a long time to figure out how to manually add it and get it working. It wasn't until I learned how to use virtualenv that I was able to get Dajaxice installed and working correctly.

Rendering only a portion of the page
I am building a django web app that has a control panel with various icons. Right now, the icons have href tags that load a new page when the user clicks the icon. I want to change this to instead call a jQuery function that will use ajax, or dajaxice, to render only the content part of the page. Does this sound possible? Would this be easier to do with Dajaxice, or with jQuery functions? Could I still use django templates for the content that corresponds with each icon? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
