s3k7i0n8: as I said before... if you want to retain state, use the session

hmmmm

next time, explain the actual problem you want to solve FIRST, _then_ tell us what's wrong with your solution

I'll keep that in mind thanks. For now this works pretty well, when I get Sessions down better, I'll come back and enhance this

Funkybob: I'm trying to querydict.urlencode() straight from the input, no processing in between

lol

FunkyBob: I am trying to convert the model to a key value pair and then convert to JSON, the serializer returns in a certain format and not recursively

shohyuken: whose serialiser tools are you using?

FunkyBob: Django's

hi guys. I need advice about an implementation that goes something like this. I have a combo box for translations, when a user change a translation I would go to a view to process that. But how can I redirect the user to the same page where they requested translation change? Or maybe jquery is better doing this?

I took the poll app from the tutorial and made it an ajax call from the mysite main page. I have it working fine, as long as the javascript event handlers (like the Vote button click handler) are defined in the mysite app templates. When I try to place the javascript code in the poll template, I can't get it to render into the "ajax" window.

shohyuken: you probably want to look at using a 3rd party one, like django-nap or Django REST Framework

FunkyBob: those are REST framework, which is different from what I want

shohyuken: yes, but they both provide Serialiser classes that you can use independantly

believe me, I know

for instance, nap also provides a CSV exporter based on its Serialiser class

FunkyBob: I notice, django nap author :D

:)

let me look through this, mind pointing me to the right url?

the serializer that you spoke of

What would you, guys, recommend for continuous integration with Django? They used Jenkins at my previous job. Back then I didn't quite understand why one would need something like this (CI), but then I came to appreciate the concept. Anyway, Jenkins just doesn't feel (and look) good enough for me.

FunkyBob: is there a getting started guide? like how to actually use the serializer

FunkyBob:Got it! Thanks!

guess I should add more docs ...

FunkyBob: sweet thanks! the example helps!

FunkyBob i can't seem to figure out this traceback: http://dpaste.com/1530596/ i've googled and a few people suggested i need to define CELERY_IMPORTS, but I do have that defined as CELERY_IMPORTS = ("course_adder.tasks", )

FunkyBob: out of curiosity, is there a way to know whether those associations have been loaded?

postfix taking time to send out emails is that a VPS thing or the way postfix might be set up?

shohyuken: yes, but it requires digging

s3k7i0n8: could be, yes

FunkyBob: I saw this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3597762/how-... I replicated it but it doesn't work

FunkyBob: which? VPS or postfix setup?

s3k7i0n8: either... or could be unrelated

s3k7i0n8: read your postfix logs

ok

shohyuken: yeah, well.. it's stack overflow... what did you want?

shohyuken: why do you want to check if it's been loaded or not?

out of curiousity

it is cached somehow

there's a "hidden" property

because calling it twice, doesn't yield 2 queries

I think

right... it loads it if it hasn't already... and 'caches' it on the instance

yeah and I can't find any info regarding the caching part

it uses Python's descriptor protocol

just like using @property ...

at least, I think it does

haha instead of from tasks import check_timetable i needed from course_adder.tasks import check_timetable

yah, here it is... django/db/models/fields/related/

related.py I mean

that took me about seven hours to figure out. SOLID.

FunkyBob: which line?

SingleRelatedObjectDescriptor

related.get_cache_name()

whichi is defined in django/db/models/related.py

[I'm looking at the git HEAD code, so it may differ from 1.6]

FunkyBob: does it only work for SingleRelated? not many to many?

m2m is different

because it's a related manager... and so a form of queryset

happy ny everyone. See you in the next one.

I know everyone who has ever dealt with it wants to pull their hair out, but inheriting legacy code with unicode errors is the würst

Come on, no one is going to laugh at my (bad) joke?

dangayle, ha. ha.

thank you, goodnight

PROGRESS IS SO REAL. STUFF IS WORKING.

i'm the best.

nick1: heh

[chuffed] past tense of chuff.

[chuff] Surly.

been working on this since dec. 21st and my goal has been to have it running by 2014. I have 24 hours 15 mins and i think i might make it.

good thing you don't live where I do :)

or you'd have 8h15m

Strange error: if I try to import a templatetag into a python module, it makes other import fail. Why?

Is there a way to get the current url of the request in django?

whispurr: depends... the nature of the import failure would help determine

whispurr: like, for instance, the traceback

magicflakes: request.path ?
