I don't find it that usable, and I would make an settings value for it, what's your opinion ?
23:37 Magus-
jinzo: heck if I know
23:37 Magus-
I don't know jack about the openid stuff
23:37 FunkyBob
_carson_: very few people use 0.96 these days... at least, people starting out
23:38 FunkyBob
_carson_: however, yes, it should be serving up the admin media...
23:38 Killarny
23:38 Killarny
Magus-: ^^
23:38 jinzo
Magus-, I tought I explained enuf for this, then let's say you need to pass 3< settings to an app, what's the best way to do it ?
23:38 Magus-
so make 3 settings
23:38 FunkyBob waits for Magus- to point out the obvious
23:38 Magus-
go logic
23:39 FunkyBob
knew I wouldn't be waiting long :P
23:39 jinzo
Magus-, currently swillson uses additional view argument for it, and as I respect him I raither asked :)
23:39 Magus-
Killarny: well obviously that won't match, you aren't giving it a param for the match
23:39 FunkyBob
(though I was actually meaning for the regex issue :)
23:39 Magus-
you need to tell it which blog you want the detail URL for
23:39 FunkyBob
see? BAM!
23:39 awmcclain
exit

Ok, before I start, I'm fairly sure this is a pretty noobish question, but I can't work it out this morning, so I'm asking here.
23:39 _carson_
FunkyBob: I will get the alpha release then, thanks a lot =)
23:39 japheth
How do I combine QuerySets with a "for" loop?
23:39 Magus-
jinzo: and I don't care enough to go read up on the actual use and see which makes more sense
23:39 rozwell
japheth: you don't
23:39 mattmcc
japheth: You don't, you combine them before that.
23:40 mattmcc
If, that is, they _can_ be combined.
23:40 FunkyBob
_carson_: I dont know if that will fix your problem, but it IS the best place to start currently
23:40 FunkyBob
_carson_: also, all of the online documentation matches it
23:40 japheth
mattmcc: I'm pretty certain they can be combined...
23:40 rozwell
japheth: what are you trying to do?
23:40 mattmcc
japheth: Well, QuerySets are just representations of SQL queries. So... Can your SQL queries be one? :)
23:40 japheth
yes
23:41 FunkyBob
wow... gis was only just merged, and there's a bunch of updates already? :)
23:41 Killarny
Magus-: ahh .. how would a template know which entry it is being passed (without resorting to more data in the context)
23:41 japheth
I'm trying to get call subcategories, where their parent category id = whatever is in a list of category ids
23:41 japheth
does that make sense?
23:41 Magus-
Killarny: that depends entirely on what you already have in it
23:42 japheth
*call = all
23:42 Magus-
something wrong with __in ?
23:42 Magus-
I don't see anything to combine
23:43 japheth
category ids may have 1 value, or it may have 10 values, and I want the subcategories for any and all category ids... I don't actually know if "combining" querysets is the way to go about this...
23:43 Magus-
so what if it has more than 1?
23:44 Magus-
hence the point of __in
23:44 japheth
ah, I get you now. when you say __in you're referring to some django function... I'll go check the docs for it now :) thanks
23:45 mattmcc
Have you.. read the db-api docs? :)
23:45 FunkyBob
mattmcc: reading docs? pfft ... who does that?
23:45 japheth
not the entire page... it's a long page, and I wasn't sure what I should be looking for
23:46 japheth
now I am, back to searching it :)
23:46 rozwell
japheth: the table of contents is pretty helpful in situations like these
23:46 rozwell
japheth: look on the right side of the page at the top
23:46 Killarny
how do I get the request.path from within a template?
23:47 mattmcc
Killarny: Have the request object in the template context, same as any other variable.
23:47 Killarny
thanks, I was hoping there was already another method to accomplish it
23:47 japheth
rozwell: yeah, thanks. didn't help in this case though, as I wasn't sure what I was looking for :)
23:47 Killarny
trying to keep my context as clean as possible
23:48 rozwell
Killarny: see the request context processor
23:48 rozwell
Killarny: as documented in the templates for python programmers docs
23:48 Magus-
the idea of a 'clean' context is silly
23:48 Magus-
if you need data in a template, it needs to be in context
23:48 Magus-
end of story
23:49 Magus-
removing it somehow helps nothing
23:49 Killarny
well, I can just put request.path in the context before rendering the template, but I wanted to make sure that isn't already there in another fashion
23:49 Magus-
context is 100% empty by default
23:49 Magus-
so no, nothing is there
23:49 Magus-
ever :)
23:49 mattmcc
If you 'always' need the path, context processors are handy.
23:50 Killarny
Magus-: except for when you use things like sites framework, which automatically injects context information - so I'm never quite certain that something I just activated isn't going to mysteriously do stuff :)
23:50 Killarny
yes, I'm paranoid
23:50 Magus-
no it doesn't
23:50 mattmcc
Killarny: Sounds like you just need to understand templates better.
23:50 Magus-
you only get added context info when you use RequestContext
23:51 Magus-
which you're then telling it to activate context processors
23:51 Magus-
and RequestContext is not a default context
23:51 Magus-
hence not empty
23:51 mattmcc
Unless you're using generic views.
23:51 johnperspet
evening all ... here's my obscure question of the day ... when overriding model fields that use choices in a modelform why would django stop outputting the "-----" choice?
23:51 Magus-
but by using them, you're getting that too
23:52 Killarny
okay, sounds like my concerns are invalid as long as I continue on the path I'm taking, thanks for the input everyone :)
