#django

mine seems different

incredible

i'll try homebrew python

that is bizarre

os x 10.7?

quick question about ModelFormSets, is there any way to ID the fields of the modelformset form with a more useful id than: form-0-cell? Ideally I want to have form-$value so I can easily reference it in JQuery

i'm on 10.8.2

same here

and just by looking at the code in your traceback

you can tell that line is wrong

it doesn't make sense

i'm at a loss how that happened

here's mine

actually, the line does make sense

but you can see why it causes the infinite recursion

when you compare two objects that both have faked __gt__ that rely on __lt__

well not faked, by derived

but*

brew install python gives me compilation error...

i just wanted to contribute a fix for a simple bug in django

and i end up with this

yeah, it's painful

what's the compilation error?

mhaligowski: have you tried installing the osx release? http://python.org/download/

nope

does it override the system python?

i'm not sure

i'' try that

*i'll

finally...

now, to the merging

ok

What is the license of #django ?

I mean, Can I use this library for commercial projects ?

bluesm: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/LI...

It is BSD license

Yes ?

i don't know if they're the same

but if https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/LI... is the same as BSD, then i suppose you could say it's BSD

bradleyayers: What does mean in this license "copyright " ?

i believe it means "owned by", but i'm not a lawyer

Can I get the text between <a>this_text</a> in python?

Mohsen_Hassani: use a html parser

lxml is good, but isn't pure python

Mohsen_Hassani: http://lxml.de/parsing.html

bradleyayers: ta-da

So I can with django and python make commercial project. Yeap ?

bluesm: well, instagram and pinterest are using it

How can I implement breadcrumbs without template inheritance?

bradleyayers: what do i do now? pull request?

compare is much better :) ill have a look

thank you

mhaligowski: i'm not familiar with @skipIfCustomUser, why is it necessary?

I need to name some of my URLs so that I can refer to them by their name; where can I set a name for a URL?

And how can I get the name later?

mhaligowski: overall looks good

mhaligowski: i made a couple of comments

hi, how do i ensure that User.objects.create_user(username,password) has username unique, i mean i have a signup form and want to send appropriate response in case username is taken

do i catch IntegrityError and respond accordingly?

gsin: well in your signup form, implement a clean method for the username field

and make it check that the username is available

gsin: Django's comes with a registration form iirc, that does this

ok

gsin: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/dj...

thanks

anyone got 5 minutes for some newb love

ben_nicoll: sure

good man

so I've been using Drupal for years and trying for ages to witch to Django

decided to bite the bullet

and just do it

got it up and running

can get around ok

need to try and get this - https://github.com/abbyysdk/ocrsdk.com/tree/mas... - running so that it would scan a file and pull it into the admin

even just into say a description field would do

but I'm struggling

and not finding much help

Im resorting to asking :/

so what's the problem?

well - i think I'm totally over thinking it

but i can't for the life of me work out how to get it working

as i said newb question

and i feel like an idiot as it's sample code

so, you're not actually telling me a specific problem you're having

or are you asking what general approach you should be taking

so my question i guess - is what would I need to setup this code so I can select a file in the django admin so it runs this code to then output it into the database

yeah

like where to even start approaching it from

then i'll go read the docs

so do you want to upload a file, and have that file sent to the http://cloud.ocrsdk.com/, and then put the result into the database?

correct

ben_nicoll: okay, do this:

create a model that has a FileField, and a TextField, the text field will store the ocr output

yep

that makes sense

register that with the admin, so you can create/edit/delete

yep

add the example code from abbyy into your project somewhere so that you can import it

just as a separate file?

and refer to it?

i think having them separate is a good plan

ok

you maybe need to massage them a bit into what you want

write an admin action that operates on instances of you model, and processes them using the abbyy api

good starting point though

hi, i have a field in the UserProfile model which has unique=True and also a default value for this model which is generated randomly using hmac, i am getting an error that this field is not unique

what could cause this?

gsin: perhaps you're only generating the value once?

gsin: show code

sec

Thanks for that - I'll go back and play around :)
