DjangoBot: #django

doing a proxy from IIS to apache would.. I think you need some thing that costs.

true, i could do that

the other way around would probably be easier

There is a IIS WSGI lib as well: http://code.google.com/p/isapi-wsgi/

i hear it's old and slow

doesn't django run on ironpython?

any way of doing {% if foo in bar %} ?

Chun1: write your own tag or use one from djangosnippets

iih, ironpython, i'm scared, does it ? :P

i could try that alternative too.

djangoo: at any rate, you could just compile pyisapie or whatever

Anyone know how to remove the label text that's generated when I create widget?

example: <tr><th>Name:</th><td><input type="text" name="name" class="special"/></td></tr>

I would want Name: removed

rozwell: yup.

i have a week to come up with a working solution :P

djangoo: well you only need an hour or so

rozwell: Sublclassing Command does return the same error though.

ikanobori: then your code is busted

rozwell: /usr/bin/python: can't open file 'shell': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

rozwell: sounds easy, but I don't have the right Visual Studio version for the project that is shipped with PyISAPIe, and i'm not very good at working around that problem :P

rozwell: i'll have to research it up.

djangoo: well there are free "express" versions of the last several visual studio releases available from microsoft

djangoo: so i wouldn't think it's a big deal

djangoo: and you don't really need the project junk anyway

you could also try sharpdevelop

i'll research it up

christ, sourceforge keeps changing things up in completely useless and unpleasant ways

rozwell: yep, every version is getting version

the don't learn from their mistakes

they*

at least the ui doesn't suck as much as it did before IMHO

getting worse*

time to go to bed :/

JoaoJoao: even more imo

Anyone know how to remove the label text that's generated when I create a TextArea widget?

This Textarea was created inside of a Form

I can remove the colon via label_suffix, but how do i remove the label itself?

Guest63511: how are you using the form in your template?

Guest63511: widgets don't have anything to do with labels

Guest63511: the form is responsible for rendering them

Guest63511, you should check this out: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/...

Quick question on using get_or_create(). I have extended Django's User model and added a Profile class to hold extra info. When using User.objects.get_or_create() is it possible to pass in the extra info for the profile so both the User object and Profile objects get created?

Guest63511: give your field a blank label (override __init__, call super, then you can use self.fields[fieldname].label='')

rozwell: ah, ok. That is good to know

_jonesy_: no

carlocci: I will definitely read that

smileyChris: I'm trying that now, thanks

where should I put signal handling code?

in the page http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contri... it's said "Here you can do any pre- or post-save operations." is it the only place where the object is saved then?

zalun|h: why wouldn't it be?

carlocci: thanks for the link, but that's actually what I've already read on the matter and it has no useful info on this problem : /

can someone help me? I am trying to follow along the Practical Django Projects book when I receive an error that says 'instancemethod' object is unscriptable at line 6 http://dpaste.com/63035/

this is my traceback http://dpaste.com/63036/

any ideas?

brettgoulder: yes

brettgoulder: stop subscripting the instance method

rozwell: I'm brand new to Django, so I don't really understand what you mean

brettgoulder: this is a python issue really

brettgoulder should be query = request.GET.get('q', '')

brettgoulder: but get is a method of dict/QueryDict

brettgoulder: [] <-- subscript operator

brettgoulder: () <-- call operator

ok

brettgoulder: so yes, you'd use request.GET.get('q', '') to get the value for key 'q' from the request.GET dict, or return an empty string if it's not there

okay cool, thanks a lot rozwell

anyway, i recommend you run through a python tutorial if you haven't

and if you have perhaps maybe take a deeper look

yea, i probably should

been thinking about Dive Into Python, is that a good one to start on?

SmileyChris: I'm getting super() argument 1 must be type, does this mean Form is an old-style class and thus I cannot use super?

rozwell: just asking - trying to understand as I want to create a page which will add/change two connected objects (user and profile)

Guest63511: super(YourForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

zalun|h: and the admin app wouldn't really do this

zalun|h: unless you're talking about making an inline for the profile

not the standard one

I mean not without my changes

?

smileychris: ah ok, ill give it another go, thank you

I think I'll need change the form, and views

zalun|h: no

zalun|h: just make an inline

rozwell: I know - that's simple

zalun|h: make your own ModelAdmin for User

rozwell: The thing is I have more than one type of user profile

zalun|h: then unregister the default one from the site if necessary and register your own

zalun|h: then the admin app isn't going to work very well for you

brettgoulder, rozwell i noticed that error in the book as well

rozwell: for the moment I have something like that: http://paste.mootools.net/d3275215d

and a template which is displaying standard form for Account with {{ test_val }} for testing

zalun|h: it looks to me like you're overcomplicating things to begin with

you're using inheritance for this aren't you?

rozwell: that was an idea as well :)

yes

ugh, i dislike inheritance

Account(Profile), Profile --foreign_key--> User

I start to dislike it as well

well i don't know why you're doing all this User stuff in the account modeladmin

or whatever this is
