gg slow query UPDATE IGNORE `%s` SET `downloads_daily` = IFNULL((SELECT AVG(`downloads`) FROM `%s` WHERE `%s`.`map_id` IN (SELECT `map_id` FROM `projects_project_maps` WHERE `project_id` = `%s`.`id`) AND `%s`.`date` >= DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 7 DAY)), 0)

i defined a helper method in my form class called validate_helper(), and am trying to call it in the clean_myfield(self) method, but I am getting 'global name validate_helper' is not defined - anyone know why?

do i have to declare it in a different place or something?

is there a manage command to drop all tables (like a clearall) ?

manage.py flush clears all the data in the tables

manage.py but keeps the table structure

but doesn't drop them :(

Eh, just drop the DB. :P

yeah, but it's on another machine on which i have not much quick access. I'd have to install a sql client i gues.

does anyone know of documentation on writing a custom database backend?

There isn't any. If you're doing that, it's fairly assumed you'd be comfortable learning from the source.

Fair enough

mattmcc: do you know how bound it is to SQL?

Theoretically you can make a non-SQL backend now, afaik.

But I'd guess you'd have somewhat more machinery to reproduce in that case.

so it doesn't spit out SQL and then expect you to run it?

I wrote a punch card backend
