IntegrityError Handling

hi all, I noticed that recently has been added InterityError as a common exception for all db (django.db.IntegrityError), so I wanted to make my view aware of that, but I'm uncertain on how to accomplish this. I added a snippet like this one, in a sort of generic view: if form.is_vali

getting _meta of a related field from a ForeignKey

Hi all, I have a loop over fields (f = self._meta.get_field(name)) of a model. If a field is a ForeignKey, I need to follow the ForeignKey and get the model and application referenced by the fk. Eg: class Address: city = ForeignKey(City,...) ... f = Address._meta.get_field

Re: gettext & UnicodeDecodeError

Thanks! that was it. Now I can reproduce the error. Which is the "correct" solution? An easy and not really nice one is to encode title into DEFAULT_CHARSET, but I'd rather have _() return an unicode object. How should I do to obtain this? sandro *:-) --~--~-~--~~~

can I use other names beside django.po?

Hi, I'm starting with internationalization. All is good with django.po & mo. but tere are words that are not found by make-messages.py as are in variables so I add the by hand. I'd prefere to keep them in a separate file my_file.po. Compile-messages finds it and creates my_file.mo but d

Hi all, How can I authenticate in a shell? I'm playing with Managers to meke them behave different according to the permission of the user, but I don't know how to play with the shell as authenticated user. Really what happens is that if I test a user that results authenticated and I dont' und

Re: form_for_model and hidden foreign key?

I'm not sure is you're talking about UPDATE or INSERT. Clearly when INSERTing new record it's easy to just setdefaults. The problem arises when UPDATEing. If my tests are correct (I'm pretty convinced tey are...) in fact you need to put all fields you don't want to update as hidden fields, and tha

Re: Newforms, form_for_model, help_text and unicode.

Hi, I had similar problems this night. It comes out help_text is the source of problems. I fixed it adding smart_unicode in Field class (newforms.fields): class Field(object): ... def __init__(...): self.help_text = smart_unicode(help_text) sandro *:-) PS: should I open a ticket

oldforms, file upload, rename & save

Hi all, I spent the last 2 hours fighting with a model.FileField that I wanted to save the file with a custom name (job number of a hylafax server). I found a related thread here: http://groups.google.com/group/django- users/browse_frm/thread/f337faf5ef5d8f9a/3c183363b21b496d? lnk=gst&q=file

newforms, foreignKeys & constraints

Hi all, I'm trying to learn newforms. I create a form with form_for_model and now presenti it in the template. A foreign key renders as a select widget, that is ok, but how can I limit the values filtering them out? Should I pass the widget when creating the Form using formfield_callback? C

sql debug

I'd like to know if it is possible to print the sql statement *before* issuing it, just to play with queryset and filtering. By the way I'm sure I read about the possibility to use cursor.queries, if DEBUG == True but I cant' find where I read it. Anyhow I'd prefer the first solution. TIA sandro
