| 23:33 | psytek | "rozwell: ahh, i didn't want to overwrite the data" |
| 23:34 | rozwell | psytek: and then you said you wanted to save it without overwriting it |
| 23:35 | timboy | rozwell, thank you so much!!! one last question. why does it try to pull from my /media directory when I go into the admin interface? it's trying to get the stylesheet and images |
| 23:35 | psytek | ok, well this should work, thanks for the help |
| 23:35 | rozwell | timboy: because you've set ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX to '/media/' |
| 23:35 | psytek | and thanks wmealing__ for helping out too |
| 23:35 | rozwell | timboy: change that to wherever you are serving your admin media from |
| 23:36 | wmealing__ | oh, i just kinda have something working now.. but ok. |
| 23:36 | wmealing__ stops | |
| 23:36 | alperkanat | any ideas ? |
| 23:36 | timboy | rozwell, do I set that in a location field in my apache conf? |
| 23:37 | psytek | wmealing__: do you have a something that will allow me to modify the queryset before returning it to the view and keep the modified field values? |
| 23:37 | mcdiesel | I need a year of birth drop down list for a registration form, and was curious if anyone knew how to automatically generate one (like 1900 to the present for example) |
| 23:37 | wmealing__ | psytek: nah, you'd need to save it to use it between views. |
| 23:37 | wmealing__ | i think so anyway. |
| 23:38 | timboy | rozwell, nm |
| 23:38 | psytek | ok |
| 23:38 | rozwell | psytek: just modify each record in the list returned by the queryset, pass it to the template |
| 23:38 | rozwell | psytek: it won't hit the database |
| 23:39 | unix_infidel | can anyone point me to a comparison b/w mod_python and WSGI? |
| 23:39 | rozwell | timboy: it's up to you how you want to do it; many people just symlink the admin media into their media_root and set admin_media_prefix accordingly |
| 23:39 | unix_infidel | or englighten me on which one is easier to use. |
| 23:40 | rozwell | unix_infidel: they're both about equally easy to use |
| 23:40 | rozwell | unix_infidel: go with mod_wsgi |
| 23:41 | unix_infidel | rozwell: ok. any particular reason. I'm actually in search of a DECENT blog post giving me reasons for why I should go with wsgi |
| 23:41 | rozwell | unix_infidel: it's more flexible and more performant |
| 23:41 | rozwell | unix_infidel: http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/Performan... |
| 23:42 | unix_infidel | rozwell: well i suppose I should ask for a tutorial that helps me get django + wsgi going on windows. |
| 23:42 | rozwell | unix_infidel: then see the tutorial at the mod_wsgi google code site |
| 23:42 | unix_infidel | rozwell: good times. |
| 23:48 | unix_infidel | "This is not intended as a basic tutorial on how to setup mod_wsgi" |
| 23:48 | unix_infidel | yikes, way to scare away the users. |
| 23:49 | rozwell | unix_infidel: the basic set up tutorials are also there |
| 23:49 | rozwell | unix_infidel: the django tutorial assumes you already have the basics down |
| 23:49 | unix_infidel | rozwell: i couldnt get it working last night, so i guess I should focus on basics. |
| 23:50 | alperkanat | does django start searching from the top urls.py when it's rendering name url patterns ? |
| 23:50 | rozwell | alperkanat: yes, it starts from the root url conf |
| 23:50 | rozwell | |
| 23:51 | alperkanat | rozwell: then there might be a bug or something like this |
| 23:51 | alperkanat | this gotta work! :S |
| 23:51 | unix_infidel | rozwell: I should probably try getting the default mod_python install going before I try to get wsgi working? |
| 23:52 | mcdiesel | Is it possible to define a list of number choices by iterating through a range of numbers? |
| 23:52 | alperkanat | it can't find the name i defined in the root url... and there's only 1 admin_page url name! url(r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root, name='admin_page'), |
| 23:53 | rozwell | alperkanat: are you passing it a positional argument? |
| 23:53 | alperkanat | rozwell: what do you mean by positional ? |
| 23:53 | rozwell | alperkanat: {% url admin_page "" %} |
| 23:53 | alperkanat | nope.. this is how i call it: » <a href="{% url admin_page %}" title="yönetim paneline gitmek için tıklayın.." class="link">yönetim paneli</a> |
| 23:54 | rozwell | alperkanat: then it won't match because admin_page takes an argument |
| 23:54 | alperkanat | rozwell: ? |
| 23:54 | rozwell | alperkanat: do you not see right there that you must supply an argument to the admin.site.root view? |
| 23:55 | alperkanat | rozwell: i thought it was optional |
| 23:55 | alperkanat | rozwell: you mean the (.*) part, right ? |
| 23:55 | davidcramer | urls.py supports direct view reference right? |
| 23:55 | webfarmer | guys trying to install mysql on a linux machine for django, I require some sort of library for python 2.5 to work. can someone guide me through the process of this - cause I have one big error |
| 23:55 | davidcramer | not just passing as strings |
| 23:55 | davidcramer | so i could say from views import * |
| 23:55 | davidcramer | and just ref them here? |
| 23:55 | rozwell | alperkanat: yes, it passes the empty string if there's nothing after admin/ |
| 23:55 | davidcramer | (it'd be nice to keep relative imports) |
| 23:56 | rozwell | davidcramer: yes |
| 23:56 | alperkanat | rozwell: :) amazing... thanks for your attention |
| 23:56 | Bill```` | I'm working through the Poll Tutorial, and when I run `python manage.py sql polls` it complains about an unexpected keyword argument 'max_length' |
| 23:56 | rozwell | Bill````: are you using 0.96? |
| 23:57 | Bill```` | *sheepish* |
| 23:57 | Bill```` | .96.2 ? |
| 23:58 | rozwell | Bill````: then you should use the 0.96 tutorial |
| 23:58 | rozwell | |
| 23:58 | alperkanat | rozwell: is this not enough ? {% url admin_page '' %} |
| 23:58 | rozwell | alperkanat: that should work |
| 23:58 | alperkanat | rozwell: it still can't match it :S |
| 23:59 | Bill```` | I see... |
| 23:59 | Bill```` | webfarmer: what problem were you having? |
