DjangoBot: #django

try it

is it possible to call a class somehow -not an objectoof it- and get a string of its identity ?

Magus-: nope. not even if I remove instance=model. I ought to mention request.GET['service'] = u'1'

maybe change it to int?

what's a good way to store user-adjustable variables in Django?

I cannot configure right django to work with Apache and mod_python. I get an error: ImportError: Could not import settings 'itprojectes.settings' (Is it on sys.path? Does it have syntax errors?): No module named itprojectes.settings

things like VAT amounts for an online shop, for instance

What is sys.path?

stunsch[1]: sys.path is the path that Django uses to find things

stunsch[1]: it sounds like you haven't quite got your PYTHONPATH thing set up correctly

gordonjcp: one way is a single-row database table, with a column for each configuration item

ok 0 is success it seems

stunsch[1]: can you pastebin the relevant bit of your apache config?

fenestro: that seems rather ugly

can I reassign variables in templates? I have a really cumbersome backwards fk that I don't really want to write out loads of times

fenestro: what I did think of was a model with a key and a value column

gordonjcp: it's not particularly pretty, but it does mean that the admin interface can be used to edit the values

phatmonkey: you could probably do it in a view

phatmonkey: look at the "with" tag

gordonjcp: nah, I'm using generic views, no point then

fenestro: what I was going to do was make the key the pk for the model

I am working with the newforms-admin branch and it looks like per-object permissions are possible given this changeset: http://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/4324

gordonjcp: http://dpaste.com/41909/

Magus-: so here's something interesting. Select=selected and yet the select box is stubbornly default selecting ------------

robhudson: I can't find any documentation on it

Does anyone have examples of how to use it?

waity, yes I can

gordonjcp: yep, if they're all of the same type

robhudson: that's perfect, thanks

I'd like users to only be able to view/edit/change records/rows they have created

Magus-: meh. caching issue. thanks.

stunsch[1], so your settings are at 'D:/Stefan/Mis Documentos/04. Desarrollo/05. Django/02. Projectes/01. Formació/ITProjectes/itprojectes/settings.py'?

and wow at the length of that :D

yes, that's right

sorry

no

just one time itprojectes

D:\Stefan\Mis Documentos\04. Desarrollo\05. Django\02. Projectes\01. Formaci�Projectes\settings.py

use 'D:\Stefan\Mis Documentos\04. Desarrollo\05. Django\02. Projectes\01. Formació' and 'ITProjectes.settings' then

i want to do some kind of psuedomodel or something

pjcrosier: still not working

ImportError: Could not import settings 'itprojectes.settings' (Is it on sys.path? Does it have syntax errors?): No module named itprojectes.settings

which content would be generated from other models

stunsch[1], itprojectes would be case sensitive, is it actually ITProjectes?

No :( Just a sec

quick question, i'm unfortunately on windows.. what text editors or IDE's do people use?

i use vim

thx

np ;)

pjcrosier: No, this isn't working.

why did you use ITProjectes originally if it doesn't exist?

I'm confused... ITProjectes is how I named my django project.

<pjcrosier> stunsch[1], itprojectes would be case sensitive, is it actually ITProjectes?

you said no

you meant yes? :D

stunsch[1], PythonPath "['D:/path/to/parentofproject'] + sys.path" - note the / instead of \

it is ITProjectes. I changed my httpd.conf file to say "SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE ITProjectes.settings", where before it said itprojectes.settings. Tried again and no success.

stunsch[1], SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE ProJeCt.settings

pjcrosier: That is how it is right now...

what does your conf look like now, dpaste?

pjcrosier: Things have started to work. It must be this long path, that includes accents. I have moved ITProjectes to the root of D and changed httpd accordingly

/away Gone for now.

question, do django have a built-in page generate function? like if your data is to mucj for one page.

implor, pagination

ah stunsch[1], i'm not too sure about the specifics of django / windows and apache so i'm glad it works at least :D

pjcrosier: buff... Let's see if I get my media files to load now...

pjcrosier, thax, this will make my day. =)

Hi all

bloody ricers

prs: hi

(I would have replied sooner but I was compiling my reply)

:-)

how can I obtain the url to the admin interface for an object ?

valiza1, {% url django.contrib.admin.views.main.change_stage app,model,id %} i think

pjcrosier, i'm getting "Could not parse the remainder: (0)", I have {% for story in story_list.get_page(0) %} in the template and "story_list = ObjectPaginator(Storys.objects.all().order_by('-id'), 20)" in the view

implor: djamgo templates don't support calling functions with parameters

*django :P

implor, are you using an older django (not trunk)?

but yeah, you don't do stuff like story_list.get_page(0) in templates

pjcrosier: thank you. Do you think there is a way to obtain the url within python, besides from the template system ?

valiza1, yep

valiza1, reverse('django.contrib.admin.views.main.change_stage', args=[app, model, id])

(from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse)

I'm trying to set up template inheritance, but I'm unable to invoke the subtemplate

my view calls an index.html template

there is no 'invoking' the subtemplate

you render the child template

not the parent
