jnns: nothing to be found there.

jax: so you get an exception that the template in question could not be found, right? The traceback should list the lookup directories, did you check whether they're correct?

no, it is using the template from the package installed by pip

not the one i've put in place to override

Hello all. Can someone explain using {{field.value}} in templates to me? The documentation just says "{{ field.value }} The value of the field" but that doesn't explain much. Im using it for a TypedMultipleChoiceField with coerce=int but it's returning a list of strings

jax: in case you're not just flipping DEBUG the template may actually be missing on your production server

hm. odd.

the template is there. if i do: from django.template.loader import get_template

t = get_template('crispy_forms_foundation/foundation-5/layout/inline_field.html'); t.origin.name

it shows the correct path to the one that should be overriding...

ah crap :D

jax: did you find the error?

sorry, i by accident overwrote the template in site-packages instead of the one in the project. so commit didn't upload it :D

had both open, just edited the wrong one. sorry.

jax: glad you found it

Is there a way to aggregate boolean values in Postgres?

Other than Count()? I can't seem to use Max/Sum without casting, and I'm not sure how to do that in the ORM.

jo_: You can probably do something like aggregate over a Case(When())

for example: boolcount=Sum(Case(when(myfield=True, then=1), output_field=models.IntegerField()))

I hate Django + nginx.

grokpot: What if I'm stuck with 1.7? :(

but.. i'd probably sacrifice the performance for a queryset .count()

Unfortunately, count is including cases where my_field=False.

So count is always nonzero.

I would definitely push to upgrade to 1.8 if you're stuck on 1.7

I had in annotate is_leaf=Count('pcm__is_leaf'), but again, that's always nonzero.

I'll bring it up at the next spring. Our PM won't like it.

*sprint

jo_: your count should read `pcm__is_leaf=True`

grokpot: ...filter(stuff).annotate(is_leaf=Count('pcm__is_leaf=True'))?

jo_: no sorry, one min

ilhami: You don't have nginx speaking directly to Django, do you?

TheJoey: I don't know if I have.. I used the digitalocean default django package

and the default django project was setup. I cloned my own project from bitbucket and tried to change the init file

gunicorn init

Now I get 502 - Bad gateway

jo_: Without django 1.8 I'd probably just do a filter(is_leaf=True).count()

jo_: but make sure to re-use your queryset

ilhami: Ah, afraid I'm not familiar with digitalocean. But that wouldn't be talking directly to Django, so at least that's good. It sounds like gunicorn is acting as the WSGI server, and that may be where your problem lies.

grokpot: I have to pass thsi queryset to a serializer.

And I have to do this for each pcm object.

TheJoey: no idea.

I am just tired of this. :P PHP was much easier to deploy

yeah djano is terrible with forms

i am thinking about going with mean

jayjj: I just use it as an API

ilhami: PHP in itself doesn't have a deployment mechanism. Nor does Django dictate (or prefer) a particular deployment solution.

it was a bad idea to learn it. i think i wasted months trying to learn it.

ahahaha

I used a week or so

:D

there's really no good documentation or courses that cover forms.

too bad.

jayjj: What would you like to see added to the tutorial and official Django docs?

jo_: I'd suggest Q objects but I don't know your exactly situation so I'm sorry

No worries. Thanks for th ehelp.

jayjj: There is also the DjangoGirls tutorial, which is highly regarded.

better form documentation with how-tos for form validation

i went through that.

i went through the official documentation. i am a noob, i'll admit but it isn't for a lack of trying.

i am also learning via TDD Django book

FREAKING GATEWAY :D

Why are you BAD? :D

ilhami: check out Heroku. Deployment is super easy with Django

grokpot: I have a DO VPS

ilhami: You should check to see if there are logs being generated by gunicorn. I don't know where digitalocean would be putting them by default.

ilhami: scrap it :)
