hi

does anyone have experience with transmeta?

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/ref/model... is there a way to get values_list to exclude duplicates?

HowardwLo: order_by().distinct()

SmileyChris: is that in addition to values_list() ?

nvm, stupid question XD

How do I make south recognize that it has already added some fields? I schemamigration --auto and it tries to re-add relations that already exist...!

why does it not believe it's added those fields?

FunkyBob: you got me, the migration definitely exists I can see it... I run our fab fresh_db which resets everything and re-runs migraitons and it's there as well

If running through all your migrations from a fresh DB works, then your current state is probably different from what south_migrationhistory thinks it is.

any idea how i can set a FK limit_choices_to a user's permission?

freakboy3742: holy shit... I want to have your babies! [Translation: I just used Cricket]

nlh: you can't...

FunkyBob: oh :(

FunkyBob: They'll be on the next plan to Melbourne :-)

s/plan/plane

freakboy3742: hahaha

touche!

Glad you like it though.

FunkyBob: Because yours aren't enough?

Still got a lot of stuff I want to do with it; need to find time...

freakboy3742: have been hunting for a test sequence so I can find why I'm getting unique constraint issues [probably, rally, because it's only half migrated to factory-boy]

what is the best hosting env that provides free time for testing django apps, ive read about heroku but the way their settings work with django seems awkward

at first glance

djapo: It's not that weird, you just use dj-database-url.

djapo: seems awkward, isn't really

djapo: best option for "Free" I think

saw something on G+ the other day about "top 5 free django hosts"

I have a models.CharField(unique=True, blank=True).. what I want is, if it is blank, I don't care if it's unique. If it's not blank, I do. But django complains about duplicate values when I enter a blank. The database allows it (using NULL) but does django?

mattmcc: what would multiple databases look like with that

djapo: https://github.com/kennethreitz/dj-database-url...

mattmcc: thanks, im reading as much as i can before i get started

?foo=bar&foo=baragain --> request.GET.get('foo') >> baragain. Is it possible to get a list of ['bar', 'baragain'] ?

silly question but, when i want to restart the development server, i do quit then run again, is there a way to reboot with a single command ?

Brachamul: dev server generally restarts itself

Brachamul: you mean "manage.py runserver" , yes/

?

mattmcc: thank you

yeah i do funkybob

Brachamul: well, unless you're editing a template [or adding a new template tags lib] it should restart on its own

oh ok

i tend to do it everytime i change something :o

thanks

Should i use [ url(r'^login/$','django.contrib.auth.views.login', name='login') ], or should I do [from django.contrib.auth import views] and then [url(r'^login/$', views.login, name='login')]

Brachamul: It doesn't need to restart for template or static file changes. When you change a file it already knows about, watch it restart itself automatically.

Brachamul: There are pros & cons to either urlpattern format, it's up to you.

Brachamul: you could even just include django.contrib.auth.urls

So I could replace [url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),] with [url(r'^admin/', include(django.contrib.admin.site.urls)),]?

no

admin works differently

because you're adding the url patterns for a particular configure AdminSite instance

ah

okay

thanks again

Why does Django still print errors when i purposefuly comment out the HTML which causes a bug? Does it not recognize the html comments as not needing to be processed ?

Brachamul: HTML templates are not part of the Django template language, no.

HTML comments, even.

holy hell, {# #} takes about 20 minutes to type on a french keyboard

thanks btw :)

is there an out-of-the-box way to enable users to create accounts on my django site or should I create a form and use create_user() ?

I'm creating a custom command, but when I try to run it it says unknown command. Is there anything I need to do to register it aside from putting it in myapp/management/commands/?

Also, management/commands was not created when I created my app. Is that supposed to be the case?

goodnight guys, thanks again
