ok ill try that

thanks

i have a question on the rest framework

how do i create an endpoint for a singleton resource

"the" rest framework, eh?

at a guess, you'd subclass a detail view

yes the rest framework

will try that

by "the rest framework"... do you mean the 3rd party all "Django REST Framework"

because there are several others

if request.domains contains a list of domains, how can i check if a user.domein is in the list of domains can i do a __in in a ifset?

django rest framework

DRF

chamindu: details matter

NBhosting: like "if user.domein in request.domains:"

?

of that easy?

o.

gona try

we're talking about python?

then, yes, that easy

mstrcnvs: some people still aren't prepared to accept things can be easy

so true

:D

import antigravity

schinckel: would i still use modelform?

but pass that to a formset?

chamindu: Singleton's are anti patterns!!!!!!!!

can you not have two foreignkeys to the same model?

tightflks_: you sure can

tightflks_: probably (re modelform/modelformset)

yeah i just found the piece about related names

so that allowed me to do that

how do i pass the user attribute

to the form?

I am using django-voting app :https://github.com/jezdez/django-voting, when i try this function form its doc: get_top(Model, limit=10, reversed=False),,its returns a dictionary of model name and score.

How do i use the model specific fields using this function

schinckel:

schinckel: https://dpaste.de/1moJ

if i want to know if there is objects with a conditions, is better use: if Model.objects.filter(...).count() than: if Model.objects.filter(...) ?, in case i dont need the objects.

i need help on this pls: http://dpaste.com/0ZGA9NG

theshit123: Use exists()

if qs.exists(): ..

tightflks_: You may need a base formset class to do that, even.

now im lost

tightflks_: This shows how you can use a base FormSet class: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/topics/fo...

Instead of overriding clean(), you override __init__.

ok thanks

schinckel: can you help me on this ? http://dpaste.com/0ZGA9NG

Although, I’m not sure that will work, as it may be too late (and give you an error that user is not expected already)

ajay123: Sorry, I have no idea about django-voting

schinckel: okay :(

tightflks_: You could, worst case, add the user after creating the forms. But that would be more fragile, I reckon.

how would that work

for form in formset.forms: form.user = request.user

But, as I said, that’s yucky.

can i then filter my fields with that?

honestly if yucky works right now

ill take it

haha

schinckel: like this https://dpaste.de/qwcd ?

Yes. But that breaks your form’s __init__, because user is None when attempting to filter.

You’ll need to do it a different way.

Okay, you’ll probably want to override _construct_form() in a base FormSet class.

I am trying to expose an environment variable available in my os by using `CONTAINER_IP = os.environ['CONTAINER_IP']` am I wayyy off here?

i am using this environ var in my settings file

probably a basic python question. but i am not even sure what to google.

jradd: when you say 'expose'....?

jradd: you want to use a env var as a value for a setting in django?

if so, you're on the right path

in fact, you're spot on

expose your anus

tightflks_: maybe something like: https://dpaste.de/OeT8

FunkyBob: I want my database IP to be set to an environment variable

FunkyBob: I get a KeyError: 'CONTAINER_IP'

im going to try that now, but shouldnt something like this work as well? https://dpaste.de/RVhn

FunkyBob: thanks for that insight. that is really what I needed to know :)

jradd: well, you can use os.environ.get('CONTAINER_IP', 'defaultvalue') if you want a default fallback

schinckel: i got a type is not iterable
