Hey, It would help a lot to see your code posted to dpaste.com or somewhere. As far as grabbing the choices in your clean method, here's a little copy-and-paste from Django's own ChoiceField so you can see how they do it: class ChoiceField(Field): > > widget = Select > > default_error_mes

__contains, ok but contains how many ;-) ?

Hi everybody, I would like to know if there if a simple way to know how many times a given field contains a string. e.g. Note.objects.filter(notedescription__contains='keyword') What would be the recommended way to know how many times 'keyword' is hit in the 'notedescriptiont' field?

I have managed to solve it by myself so reporting here if anyone is interested. I have checked and the sql Log shows statements are generated with LIMIT clause (postgre). You have to subclass the ChangeList class ass class MyChangeList(ChangeList): def get_query_set(self): return supe

Re: __contains, ok but contains how many ;-) ?

Hi, There is no way to do that in a pure Django ORM, so only option is to fall back to raw SQL. The exact SQL syntax is dependent on your database backend but Django can still get you real model instances. See more about raw SQL at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/sql/ Though if yo

Setting current timezone in Django 1.4, and middleware

In 1.4, what exactly is the scope of the current timezone? In other words, if I use activate() to set a current timezone, is that global? Or does it only apply to the current request (and not persist across requests)? Or, some other scope? (I looked at the source

Re: Model reversion

Json and difflib won't work well together, unless you make a diff per field, which will add overhead. Look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4599456/textually-diffing-json Reverting is returning to a previous state. Just run all diffs from the first commit until you reach the desired state.

Documentation for the url template tags in 1.4

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think 1.4's documentation has jumped the gun in describing the url template tag's syntax. According to 1.4's documentation : {% url 'path.to.some_view' v1 v2 %} >> > The first argument is a path to

Re: Documentation for the url template tags in 1.4

Hi Greg, Thanks for the report. From the look of it, the problem is actually with Django's documentation site, not with the documentation itself. If you look at the raw source file for the documentation in 1.4: https://github.com/django/django/blob/stable/1.4.x/docs/ref/templates/builtins.txt#L1

Search in Django
