DjangoBot: #django

hehe

hmm or not possibly. I refreshed caches, and it still looks the same

now if I remember correctly you mentioned firebug which I think has a javascript profiler built in

vIkSiT: cool, glad to see you figured it out. at first, I was under the impression that the delay was before rendering started

Seamus, thats my impression still. As I mentioned above. I'm going to try in another browser to see how it goes

Seamus, ah, and it looks like its still pre-rending. I've disabled JS from my template itself, rather than use noscript. And rendering through safari rather than FF

rendering* issue

Safari shows "loading n/7 items"

is there anybody experienced with photologue?

t las ?

when starting a new django project, should I use the latest dev version or 1.0.2?

I'd say latest SVN

I"m using it without any problems whatsoever

vIkSiT: do you svn up every day?

not every day, once a week perhaps

jeremy_c: definitely dev

why my saved instance doesnt show in admin?

it's only when i specify list_display

when i removed list_display, it appears again

what's the proper way to make an command-line utility that interacts with my db via models? is it adding subcommands to manage.py or is there a better way?

evmar: yeah, management commands is the best way

looks like a bug in django

SmileyChris: feels kinda heavyweight, so i wanted to doublecheck. thanks!

well... anybody got such problem

?

guys

pls help

Ok, thanks, I just did a svn co.

SmileyChris: please, can you help me?

tel0: you're not doing anything funky with managers?

no =)

interns, then?

tel0: yes, it sounds buggy then

just 2 simple models, i've broken my mind trying to understand what's the reason

tel0: try removing your verbose names

tel0: do you need to remove both fields from list_display for it to show?

SmileyChris: yes

only both

i use 1.1 beta...

tel0: both those fk models have __unicode__ methods?

and they're correct

btw, removing verbose names didnt help

yep

tel0: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/11460

any idea why I would be getting an apache error AttributeError: 'SafeUnicode' object has no attribute 'has_header' - when trying to generate a PDF with Pisa?? - full error at http://pastebin.com/d1814d10d - this is a fresh server and the script works on another site though only difference I can find so far is using Python2.6 vs Python2.5

SmileyChris: hm... looks similar, but i got only valid data

or so you think ;)

tel0: if you really want to debug, get django-debug-toolbar and look at the sql calls

then check them yourself

SmileyChris: all I want is my User model to return get_full_name() in its __unicode__() method, instead of username

shouldn't be this hard :(

hey kojiro

yo, seemant

seemant: huh?

seemant: have you some code to pastebin?

SmileyChris: K, thanks. But the data is really correct, i can see it, save etc - but only if list_display doesn't contain fk

kojiro: http://dpaste.com/68955/

SmileyChris: sorry, that was out of the blue, I know

heh

SmileyChris: but really it's all I want

seemant: may I see a bit more of the class?

seemant: so what's the problem?

kojiro: sure, just look in /usr/lib/python/site-packages/django/contrib/auth/models for the whole class

SmileyChris: how do you do it?

kojiro: you're looking for User

you can't override the unicode method for some third party class

seemant: I see, so you're overriding that class and you really only want to override one method?

no no no

I just want the simplest route to being able to do that

at the moment, I have a frigging proxy model pointing to User, and its only method is that one

heh, sounds moderately familiar

but this leads to auth.groups and permissions being messed up for all sorts of users

so, like, I could just patch django's models.py class to change its __unicode__ function, but that is probably non-preferred (ie, I'll have to do it, everytime I update django)

or I could subclass User, which means making a custom backend, adding some middleware, etc

all for the pleasure of showing a user's full name

seems a bit hacky

seemant: http://code.djangoprojects.com/ticket/5338

seemant: I can commiserate with you -- we have a similar frustration. But I don't know the solution... yet

The right way to fix this would be for Django to implement User in an abstract enough way that it could be subclassed easily, without having to jump through hoops.

ubernostrum: got any suggestions for that, perchance?

How would you guys model a "could have" relationship e.g a sale "could have" a cancellation?

FK with null=True, blank=True

i think

dstufft: so you mean in sale class, have a cancellation field which is FK null=True, blank = True?

is a Cancellation an object?

I guess it could be; I was thinking NullBoolean

kojiro I have it as a class because sales and cancellations are fed in from spreadsheet and each is its own row. I think it makes it easier for me this way. Especially for the accounts girls to match things up to whats on screen

originally i think I had sale extending cancellation which was horribly wrong...

heh

"A cancellation is a type of sale"

no wait...

you mean a sale is a type of cancellation :p
