bigobony, you're problem, I think (without seeing more of your work) is in your urls.py

what is auto_performance, do you mean to use *views.performance instead?

cssko, this is the trace back https://dpaste.de/qywt#L31

ahh, you're not passing in a request aswell I believe? Only the url. It's a bit difficult to decipher

bigobony: To be able to help, you need to show that particular urlconfig and a view.

cssko, jtiai, here is the urlconfig and view https://dpaste.de/iKd1#L1,28

bigobony: Your urls should have /$ that points to views (that is convention at least). also, why you do have *args and **kwargs in your view?

bigobony: ah, you do have "url" there. You don't pass in url parameter in your view at all.

how I need to pass that

bigobony: Depends what are you trying to do?

In Django's form clean() method, am I right in thinking that `cleaned_data` refers to data that has been cleaned by the individual clean_<fieldname> methods and `data` is the raw data that was submitted to the form? What's the difference between the two? Ultimately everything ends up in `cleaned_data`, right?

how do i debug ajax request functions (API functions)

All I get is a 500 error

no error message

jtiai, I just don't want to repeat the code so I have passed url as argument and the url is different

Audioburn: You do get error message.

where?

bigobony: Can you give an example of url you're passing to django?

Audioburn: if you have DEBUG=True django returns it in the response. You need to check it either using browser debuggin tools or reading actual response text.

VaticanCameos: cleaned_data is validated and coerced to correct type of data.

jtiai, url= https://example.com/Apiv3/json?NetworkId=123, url= https://example.com/Apiv3/json?NetworkId=456

bigobony: Ah. Django doesn't handle query parameters with url config. You can access them using request.GET or request.POST

jtiai: So if the situation demands, I can extract data from `data` instead of `cleaned_data` (fields that don't have any individual clean methods for instance).

VaticanCameos: Never. Only cleaned_data is reliable.

jtiai: So there is no situation that could remotely even require the use of `data`?

jtiai: this way it is working file https://dpaste.de/aSB0#L2,19

VaticanCameos: Only when you're creating new form fields.

but the code is repeated I don't want that

bigobony: What code?

bigobony: Why you need to repeat it?

url is different in each function

bigobony: different,... how?

jtiai: We used tastypie to build a RESTful API. The particular model in question has a resource whose validation is done via the defined form. Apparently tastypie creates model objects before passing data through form validation. I'm led to believe that is causing an issue.

Networkid is different

VaticanCameos: Ah. Never ussed tastypie since it's awful.

The text field's data vanishes by the time program control enters clean().

I liked tastypie but it's not really maintained now

bigobony: Where that netowrk id comes from?

from api

jtiai: Well, tastypie was popular 2 years ago. I wasnt working here back then. I doubt anyone will listen if I ask to push to DRF instead. it's way too big a task.

jtiai: example.com/api/networkid1, example.com/api/networkid2

bigobony: You're not consistent.

So in this case, I don't think I have a choice. I have submitted my patch for review, let's see what the others say to my usage of `data`.

VaticanCameos: yes, it's hard to switch once you're far down a path

bigobony: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/intro/tut... revise that part in tutorial since it seems that you don't understand how urlconfigs do work.

ok thanks jtiai :)

guys if I have a blog, I use the command gunicorn --bind 0.0.0.0:8000 myproject.wsgi:application

or instead of application I write blog

?

j3r0, gunicorn yourproject.wsgi --bind 127.0.0.1:8000 from your project root iirc

I found this guide helpful for myself a few weeks ago, http://adambeagle.com/blog/deploying-django-17-...

some of it is platform dependent obviously

thanks cssko

Does anyone have experience with cookiecutter-django?

no problem, hope that helps!

Trying to use function based views and I'm getting an error that my template does not exist

Wondering if there is something happening in the class based views that I don't know about

err, what are you rendering to?

cssko: Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean

cssko: return render(request, 'skill_progress.html')

django likely cannot find an html file named 'skill_progress.html'

do you have a TEMPLATE_DIRS setting in your settings.py

cssko: I do, the user sign up (that came with the cookie cutter) templates work fine

I made a folder in the same directory as the user folder and put my own templates in there

The only difference I can see is that the user views are class based and mine are function based

gimmie a sec, throwing up a dpaste

for reference, here's how a project of mine is layed out https://dpaste.de/ZrAV

laid out*

cssko: I have the same if I'm not mistaken

cssko: http://cl.ly/image/1E1s350k3O0S

ahh, ok

render(request, 'skills/skill_progress.html'

and close your paren, obviously :P

cssko: Ah thank you

cssko: Always feel bad when I get hit with a simple solution hahaha

no problem, happens sometimes :D
