Re: Stuck trying integrate jinja2 - need compatibility extensions
Todd,
I recommend that you have a look at Coffin:
http://github.com/dcramer/coffin
It comes with a {% url %} that should work out of the box.
The snippets you linked are not tags, but functions, that is, you
would do something like:
{{ url('my_view') }}
You need the pass the functions in those snippets into the context,
or add them as globals (not sure how to do with with chouwa). However,
it seems like chouwa has it's own url() global:
http://bitbucket.org/trevor/chouwa/changeset/857d017f8c47/
So the template syntax above might just work

Re: RSS Aggregator
I'm working on a Universal Feed Parser-based library to create aggregators. The idea is that the process of parsing a feed and syncing it's items with a database can be customized by various addins: http://github.com/miracle2k/feedplatform It mostly works already, though it lacks the polishing for a release. You'll probably find yourself spending some time with the source code if you decide to try it.

Re: How can I parse and process the contents of an URL?

I'm pretty sure I ran into this before, and IIRC it's because Django's
runserver, which I assume you are using, can only handle one request at
a time - try a different test url.

Another approach is using __getattr__ to monitor changes. It saves you a query, but it also makes it more likely that the actual database value might have changed in the meantime.

'None' is a string, so if anything, you'd have to use: part_of__exact=None
However, what you're looking for is probably:
subtasks = Task.objects.filter(part_of__isnull=True)

Use your own custom view to render the feed, and just wrap HTTP auth around it.

You can also just import the model itself from the other app and use
it directly. This works just fine as long as you don't need cross
references, i.e. app A importing app B importing app A.

If what I need to write doesn't really fit in any of the common "places" (models, managers, views, middleware etc.), then I would say you are free to put it wherever you want to. I don't think there would be anything wrong with using, say, ./project/app/services/facebook.py. Or just ./project/services/facebook.py if it's not specific to an application. I know some people are creating separate apps (within their project) for that sort of thing. I guess that makes most sense if you can map sub-parts of what you implement to Django pieces. Say your Facebook functionality wants provide it's own set of template tags. Or a callback view for the API. Or if there is a chance it *might* need it's own model at some point. For a Facebook client that possibly doesn't even depend on your project, you might even want to consider a separate reusable package.

Re: ModelForms
> form.category.queryset = > Category.objects.filter(blog__exact=request.user.author_set.all() > [0].blog) print form.category.queryset I am somewhat surprised that this would work at all. The field objects should be accessible via FormClass.base_fields['fieldname'] or form_instance.fields['fieldname'] so you should be able to say for example: form_instance.fields['fieldname'].queryset = myqueryset There is also: form_instance.fields['fieldname'].choices form_instance.fields['fieldname'].widget.choices AFAIK, at some point in the past there were issues with choices not being updated when the queryset was changed, but that should have been fixed a long time ago.

NodeList.render() and SafeString
I just updated to an auto-escaping enabled trunk, and I'm trying to adjust some template tags. One of them stores a nodelist and renders it at some point. Now, NodeList.render() returns escaped data, but does not mark it as safe (it's a unicode instance). Is this just an oversight, or as designed? If the latter, can anyone explain why?

Dynamically adding methods to Widget instance
I just spent the last 5 hours debugging this, what a nightmare ;) I recently updated from around rev. ~5600 to the latest trunk. Before the update, I was doing this: # wrap render method MyFormClass.base_fields['fieldname'].widget.render = new.instancemethod() ... myform = MyFormClass() ... myform.fields['fieldname'].widget.choices = [...] That worked fine then (in retrospect, I am not sure why). After the update, the last assignment to choices stopped having any effect. What happens is: constructing MyFormClass() does a deepcopy() on base_fields. When that process reaches a widget, the __deepcopy__ implementation of Django's Widget class is called, which basically falls back to a normal shadow copy. As a result, the dynamically created render wrapper still refers to the *old* Widget instance of the form class - in other words: MyFormClass.base_fields['fieldname'].widget.render.im_self = \ myform.fields['fieldname'].widget.render.im_self but: MyFormClass.base_fields['fieldname'].widget != \ myform.fields['fieldname'].widget Now as I said, I'm not sure why it worked before and what broke it (a real deepcopy() fails with "instancemethod expected at least 2 arguments, got 0" - apparently this is a known Python problem). Does anyone have an idea how to work around this, or do I have to use a completely different approach to put my custom render() method to use?

Ah, your right. Although you can still call models.Model.save() in your
ChangeImplementor.save() yourself, or even do something like:
class Description(ChangeImplementor, models.Model): pass
class ChangeImplementor(object):
def save(self):
s = super(ChangeImplementor, self)
if hasattr('save', s):
s.save()
Although it probably starts to get a bit hackish...

I've been wondernig the same thing. If I do {% include "item.html" %}
for 200 items, will item.html be re-read each time? Glancing at the
code, it appears so.
