Re: Filtering model searches by a property (as opposed to a field)

Thank you very much for that Javier.

After flailing around with raw SQL for a while I realised that Django
has conveniently provided a powerful set of field lookups that I did
not know about.

I have ended up doing this, which is a million times simpler than what
I was previously attempting:

<views.py>
...
date = datetime.date.today()
day_of_the_week = date.weekday()
last_date_in_week = date + datetime.timedelta(days = 7 -
day_of_the_week)
week = Todo.objects.filter(owner__id =
user.id).filter(due_date__lte=last_date_in_week).filter(due_date__gt=date)
...
</views.py>

This gives me 'todo' objects from tomorrow until the end of the week,
which is what I want.

queries are compiled to SQL to be sent and processed at the database;
properties are Python code, the database knows nothing about them.
that's why the compiler only allows you to use database fields on a
filter

> What is the correct method for doing this?

the generic answer is to do it in Python, something like:

result = [ record in queryset if record.property == value ]

but this can be very inefficient, and nowhere as flexible as Django's querysets.

much better is to translate the criteria into something the database
can process. In this case, find the beginning and end of the current
week and use a range filter.

Re: using django templates to generate and replace a file

Hey,

I just thought I'd give you a quick reply. First, you can save the rendered output of a template using this:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/templates/api/#rendering-a-context

Then, take that String and write over that 'users.cfg' file. For example,

http://docs.python.org/tutorial/inputoutput.html

Hopefully that helps a little bit. I'm not sure if I understand the problem right but I figured I'd give it a shot.

Good luck!

More specifically:

def get_form(self, request, *args **kwargs):
form = super(YourModelAdmin, self).get_form(request, *args, **kwargs)
a_pk = get_a_pk_from_http_referer(request)
form.a_pk = a_pk
return form

super(YourModelForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.fields['b'].queryset = self.fields['b'].queryset.filter(a=self.a_pk)

You also need to separate the different strings with commas. Otherwise Python will automatically concatenate them, as they are within parentheses.

If I understand you righ, it's a bit triky stuff, you have to do two things:
1) Define a custom add_form and override their __init__ method with
something like:
self.fields['b'].queryset = self.fields['b'].queryset.filter(a=a_pk)
2) Provides the current value of your filter (a_pk) to the defined form on 1)
I think this can be done overriding modeladmin.get_form() method
since request is one of their args, so you can extract the value of
the filter on the http referer url and provide it to the form that
this method creates.

Re: Unicode lists and form submissions

Hi djangoers,

I've ran into an issue I'm not sure how to handle.

I have a form with 7 checkboxes representing 7 days of the week. I want to collect the submitted days and use them in rrule to generate some dates.

The form field looks like this:

weekly_interval = forms.MultipleChoiceField(label='Repeat on:', choices=EventSeries.weekly_interval,widget=forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple, required=False)

The choices are generated from this:

weekly_interval = (
(rrule.SU, 'Sun'),
(rrule.MO, 'Mon'),
(rrule.TU, 'Tue'),

(rrule.WE, 'Wed'),
(rrule.TH, 'Thu'),
(rrule.FR, 'Fri'),
(rrule.SA, 'Sat')
)

So, the form renders and everything is fine, but once I submit the form, the data is in incorrect format and I'm not sure how to fix it.

This is how I'm collecting the interval:

interval=form.cleaned_data['weekly_interval']

Then I'm using it in this line:

start_dates = list(rrule.rrule(rrule.WEEKLY, count=self.recurrences, byweekday=self.interval, dtstart=self.start_datetime))

My problem is in this byweekday=self.interval

If I test this form console with the following it works fine

start_dates = list(rrule.rrule(rrule.WEEKLY, count=a_s.recurrences, byweekday=(rrule.MO,rrule.TU), dtstart=appt.start_time))

But when I look at the interval submitted from the form using pdb it looks like this [u'WE', u'TH', u'SA']

I suspect that I need to convert this from unicode to objects. Does anyone know the best approach? And what it would be?

Thanks a million!

Filtering model searches by a property (as opposed to a field)

Hi all,

I have the following model:

<models.py>
class Todo(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
due_date = models.DateTimeField()
location = models.CharField(max_length=200)
type = models.CharField(max_length=4, choices=TODO_TYPES)
owner = models.ForeignKey(User, verbose_name='owner')
done = models.BooleanField(default=False)
def _get_due_week(self):
return int(self.due_date.strftime("%W"))
due_week = property(_get_due_week)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
</models.py>

and this search code:

<views.py>
...
user = request.user
this_week = int(date.strftime("%W"))
this_weeks_todos =
Todo.objects.filter(owner__id=user.id).filter(due_week=this_week)
...
</views.py>

But I get:

"Cannot resolve keyword 'due_week' into field. Choices are: done,
due_date, id, location, name, owner, type"

Is it not possible to filter based on a property?

What is the correct method for doing this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Template-loader postmortem

Django tried loading these templates, in this order:

Using loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader:
c:\python27\my_djando_projects\mysite\my_templates\admin
\base_site.html
c:\python27\my_djando_projects\mysite\my_templates\admin\index.html
c:\python27\my_djando_projects\mysite\my_templates\polls\index.html
\polls\index.html (File does not exist)
Using loader django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader:
c:\python27\lib\site-packages\django\contrib\admin\templates\polls
\index.html (File does not exist)

What on earth am I doing wrong here? I've so many different variations
of my settings.py, views.py, and index.html. Any help would be much
appreciated.

Thanks,

SB

Error on Tutorial Part 3 - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/intro/tutorial03/

Hello All,

I'm going through the tutorial on djangoproject.com, and can't seem to
hurdle over this section that reads "Write views that actually do
something"

Here's the code I have so far, which is directly copied from the
tutorial or prescribed by the tutorial:

views.py:
"from django.template import Context, loader
from polls.models import Poll
from django.http import HttpResponse

def index(request):
latest_poll_list = Poll.objects.all().order_by('-pub_date')[:5]
t = loader.get_template('polls/index.html')
c = Context({
'latest_poll_list': latest_poll_list,
})
return HttpResponse(t.render(c))"

settings.py:
"...
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
# Put strings here, like "/home/html/django_templates" or "C:/www/
django/templates".
# Always use forward slashes, even on Windows.
# Don't forget to use absolute paths, not relative paths.
'C:/Python27/my_Djando_projects/mysite/My_Templates/admin/
base_site.html'
'C:/Python27/my_Djando_projects/mysite/My_Templates/admin/
index.html'
'C:/Python27/my_Djando_projects/mysite/My_Templates/polls/
index.html'
)
..."

index.html:
"{% if latest_poll_list %}
<ul>
{% for poll in latest_poll_list %}
<li><a href="/polls/{{ poll.id }}/">{{ poll.question }}</a></

I keep getting the same error, which reads:

Keeping filters when adding in the admin interface

Hello, if I have the following Model:

class A:
name

class B:
name
a = models.ForeignKey(A)

class C:
name
b = models.ForeignKey(B)

And let's suppose that in the Admin Site I have a Filter in the C list
that refers to the A model. Is there a way to keep that filter when I
am going to add a new C object and use it to filter the combobox of
the b filed so that it will only show the b objects that are related
to the A model in the filter?
For example:
If the filter I choose points to the id=1 in the A model, the combobox
for the b field when I add a C object only has to show the B objects
that has a = 1

Is there a way to do this?
Thanks a lot for the help.
Greetings.
Mauro.

Loading multi-line SQL as part of syncdb

The problem is: This doesn't work, as is well-known, because the current code breaks sql/<modelname>.sql files into lines, and that fails if the SQL statement is multiline.

The fix is generally noted to be, to quote mtredinnick on bug #3214:

> If you want to pass in complex SQL, catch the post-syncdb signal and work directly with a django.db.backend.cursor. You will know precisely what database you're talking to and can use the appropriate syntax and calling mechanisms.

Except the documentation of the post_syncdb signal says:

> It is important that handlers of this signal perform idempotent changes (e.g. no database alterations) as this may cause the flush management command to fail if it also ran during the syncdb command.

So, either the documentation is overstating the case, or the proposed solution is wrong. Any guidance as to the right way to apply multi-line SQL during syncdb?

Best,

DateField - format in Django 1.3.1

Hi,

I saw there was some problems in the format which is rendered,
validated and stored using a DateField in a form, and in a model. Are
they still unresolved in 1.3.1 versio?, it's not working for me ....

My form:
32 class EventForm(forms.Form):
33 name =
forms.CharField(label=_('name'),max_length=100,required=True)
34 startDate = forms.DateField(input_formats=['%d/%m/
%Y'],label=_('sta rtDate'),
required=False,initial=datetime.date.today)
35 endDate = forms.DateField(input_formats=['%d/%m/
%Y'],label=_('endDa te'),
required=False,initial=datetime.date.today)

My model:
34 class Event(models.Model):
35 eventID = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
36 name = models.CharField(max_length=100,null=False,blank=False)
38 startDate = models.DateField('%d/%m/
%Y',null=True,blank=False,default=date.today)
39 endDate = models.DateField('%d/%m/
%Y',null=True,blank=False,default=date.today)

And the POST message:
POST:<QueryDict: {u'startDate': [u'01/01/2012'], u'endDate':
[u'31/12/2012'], u'name': [Year 2012']}>,

The render is properly drawn.

Tanks a lot,
Xavi

Hmmpf. One of the things improved since 0.96 is that error reporting
of this kind has improved. There is an import error coming from one of
the imports in the urlconf, and that is why it cannot import the

So, it is going wrong because something that is in your urlconf causes
an exception, and so the urlconf cannot be imported. You need to show
the code from your urlconf.

Two other unrelated things:

1) You're running with DEBUG=True on a production site! Don't do that!
2) You seem to be using Django 0.96! Django 1.4 is about to be
released, there are 'several' bugs fixed in between those two
versions. Perhaps even something that causes this problem!

Re: User actions logging app

The log entry model above is very much like what is used in the Admin.
You might want to investigate that model, too, for logging who-did-
what. It can be found from django.contrib.admin.models.

The reason why I use my own is that I usually have some extra columns
related to the audit trail handling.

Lists are ordered, I think you are confusing something :)

Jquery/ajax + django

Hello,

I've gotten this json object back from django.

I was wondering how do we use ajax/jquery to retrieve just the words that are highlighted?

I'm stumped.

{"new_list":{"blue": {"sub_datetime": "2012-02-29 22:14:44", "exp_datetime": "2012-03-07 22:14:44", "keyword": "blue"}, "teleport": {"sub_datetime": "2012-02-29 22:09:26", "exp_datetime": "2012-03-07 22:09:26", "keyword": "teleport"}, "blink182": {"sub_datetime": "2012-02-29 22:12:40", "exp_datetime": "2012-03-07 22:12:40", "keyword": "blink182"}, "a1": {"sub_datetime": "2012-02-29 22:13:31", "exp_datetime": "2012-03-07 22:13:31", "keyword": "a1"}, "jolie": {"sub_datetime": "2012-02-29 22:08:46", "exp_datetime": "2012-03-07 22:08:46", "keyword": "jolie"}, "santa claus": {"sub_datetime": "2012-02-29 22:14:13", "exp_datetime": "2012-03-07 22:14:13", "keyword": "santa claus"}}}

Here are the methods i've tried:

function updateKeywords(e) { e.preventDefault();

var keyword_form = jQuery(e.target);

alert("Yay Jquery is working!!!");

$.ajax({

url : keyword_form.attr('action'),

type : keyword_form.attr('method'),

data : keyword_form.serialize(),

dataType : 'json',

success : function(response) {alert("JSON Data: " + response.new_list.keyword);

});

}

});

Unfortunately, when i put the above, it returns an undefined json data.

When i just put response.new_list, it returns the whole chunk.

Do appreciate any help.

Best Regards,

Stanwin Siow

Unicode lists and form submissions

Hi djangoers,

I've ran into an issue I'm not sure how to handle.

I have a form with 7 checkboxes representing 7 days of the week. I want to collect the submitted days and use them in rrule to generate some dates.

The form field looks like this:

weekly_interval = forms.MultipleChoiceField(label='Repeat on:', choices=EventSeries.weekly_interval,widget=forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple, required=False)

The choices are generated from this:

weekly_interval = (

(rrule.SU, 'Sun'),

(rrule.MO, 'Mon'),

(rrule.TU, 'Tue'),

(rrule.WE, 'Wed'),

(rrule.TH, 'Thu'),

(rrule.FR, 'Fri'),

(rrule.SA, 'Sat')

)

So, the form renders and everything is fine, but once I submit the form, the data is in incorrect format and I'm not sure how to fix it.

This is how I'm collecting the interval:

interval=form.cleaned_data['weekly_interval']

Then I'm using it in this line:

start_dates = list(rrule.rrule(rrule.WEEKLY, count=self.recurrences, byweekday=self.interval, dtstart=self.start_datetime))

My problem is in this byweekday=self.interval

If I test this form console with the following it works fine

start_dates = list(rrule.rrule(rrule.WEEKLY, count=a_s.recurrences, byweekday=(rrule.MO,rrule.TU), dtstart=appt.start_time))

But when I look at the interval submitted from the form using pdb it looks like this [u'WE', u'TH', u'SA']

I suspect that I need to convert this from unicode to objects. Does anyone know the best approach? And what it would be?

Thanks a million!

You're doing the dev/trunk tutorial but have django 1.3 installed.

Either use the django 1.3 tutorial, or install the beta of the next
release. If you are a beginner, stick to released software.

No. Inside child templates, most nodes outside of blocks are ignored.
You can do this instead:

{% block csr_block %}
{% if request.user.is_csr %}
...
{% else %}
{{ block.super }}
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
