InternalError -- django specific state?

Can anyone help me with the following point? Does django keep internal state when psycopg throws a OperationalError, and how do I clear it? The situation is this: I have external processes writing into a django/ postgres database. To avoid using semaphors, etc, I'm trying to use a row level lock

How to customize ModelChoiceField?

I have a table of Rates: class Rate( models.Model ): edition = ForeignKey( Edition ) description = ForeignKey( Foo ) rate = IntegerField( ) ... [ other fields not relevant here ] and a RateForm: class RateForm( forms.ModelForm ): class Meta: fields = ( 'description',

Re: How to customize ModelChoiceField?

I think I've solved this myself. I needed two fields for description: one for the description pk (in case it is pre-existing) and one for the text. I changed the widget for the description via RateForm.Meta.widgets to a HiddenInput widget, and added the text field to the form separately. In RateF

admin recipe: sort on "computed fields", and a question?

an "admin_order_field" attribute... even if I replace the complex expression with a dummy select that merely renames some existing field. Is there some other way to do this? Is this a good candidate for enhancement (should I move over to "developers" or open a ticket?)? Thanks

clearing related manager cache

In a many-to-one relationship (ie reverse of ForeignKey), an instance has a related manager that (apparently) caches its relatees, at least in some circumstances. Is it possible to clear this cache? This would be useful in the following scenario: class Foo( Model ): pass class Bar( Model ):

newforms BoundField prefix treatment.

Hello, I'm confused: why does BoundField.as_widget retrieve initial data with self.name (without prefix): >>>def as_widget(self, widget=None, attrs=None): ... >>>if not self.form.is_bound: >>>data = self.form.initial.get(self.name, self.field.initial) But if there is dat

using make-messages in native non-english site

static content -- authentication?

I've read in several places about the advisability of serving static content via Apache (or whatever) rather than via django. Is it possible to somehow share an authentication context with Apache (via session coookie??)? We have a bunch of things like PDF reports, etc that can only be downloaded

Re: static content -- authentication?

Wonderful, James -- I had overlooked the existence of this. Small feature enhancement might be to mention it in doc in other places where static content is being talked about. - Shaun --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to

file names for db file fields

There are two methods in the db api specific to files: get_FOO_filename( ) and save_FOO_file( fn, rawcontents). If we just want to treat the associated file as an anonymous "blob", can we say: mod.save_FOO_file( mod.get_FOO_filename(), rawcontents ) Or do we need to provide a filename on f

close connections and restart django?

Hello, I'm writing some scripts for a testing environment. I want to dump some core stuff from the database, recreate the database, and reload the stuff. I can do all the steps individually, but deleting the database requires closing the db connection. Can I get django to cleanup and close its c
