What do you guys use for managing and minifying assets?

I have used django-compressor for quite some time: I'm currently really only using that for CSS/Sass at the moment. I'm experimenting with requirejs, and haven't found a nice way to combine these yet.

schinckel: I believe django-pipeline was blessed at Pyconau, and not just because of its py3 support

hello, how can i make datetime ">" and "<" conditions in query set using filter method?

*please

MrS1lentcz: __lt and __gt ?

FunkyBob: my 'old' man :)

FunkyBob: i found only _gt, thank you very much :)

MrS1lentcz: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/ref/model...

bah, internet went down.

FunkyBob: Does it know how to combine requirejs-style includes?

schinckel: Does django-compressor compile SASS ?

schinckel: does seem to mention require n the docs

Fervicus: Yess.

(You need to have a sass compiler installed)

excellent

I have used web-assets before with Flask

that probably has a django flavor too

Kronuz writes a sass compiler ... pure python

Fervicus: looks like django-pipeline does sass, too.

FunkyBob: I can't see a reference in django-pipeline to require(js).

Might be possible to create a compressor though.

I'm wanting to add a permission for an app, but it's one where there are no models. How can I create permissions for it?

FunkyBob i am getting database error after changing web server to apache.

how do i sync the sqlite3 to apache

So, is it possible to add permissions outside of a model.Meta.permissions?

ChrisMorgan: Probably: you can just create Permission objects. Not sure what you would use for the various fields, though.

schinckel: you're right, I'd missed https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/au... which you helped me find. Thanks!

It looks like technically they need to have a content_type (which there is one of per-model class, IIRC). Not sure what you would use in the case there is no model to associate with.

Actually, that's still requiring content_type. Hmm.

I'll take a look at it later.

You may be able to associate them with ContentType :)

ContentType.objects.get_for_model(ContentType)

That sounds at least moderately evil. I'll check with the source if that would do Bad Things.

I'd try to think about a more meaningful association, though. Since it is permission-based, you could associate it with the installed User class, or even Permission.

I'm having issues with celery-haystack: 'Settings' object has no attribute 'CELERY_HAYSTACK_TRANSACTION_SAFE'

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

schinckel: thanks

What's the best way to add custom contraints to a field in a Model? By overriding the Model.clean_fields method?

k_sze[work]: Is it a field-level constraint, or does it affect multiple fields at the same time?

field-level

I've used a pre_save listener in the past, or override the save() method.

You may be able to use a field-level validator then. IIRC, they don't always run though.

does aaugustin hang around here?

sokmar: Never noticed him. FunkyBob might know.

now i dont know which image app should i be using

Furoido: you don't have to, use whatever suits your project best. or make your own

maybe i should make my own then, but i cant find a tutorial to to fit my needs

jwa, though theres a tutorial that i bumped into but it uses FileField instead of ImageField

does anyone have some optimization resources? how do I know if my uwsgi server is using too much ram for example?

Furoido: not sure why you wouldn't want to use ImageField - also you might want to look at easy_thumbnails, I often just go with that

jwa, i want to use ImageField, but the tutorial that ive got was using FileField

jwa, easy_thumbnails doesnt have galleries
