#django

any ideas how I can trim this down? https://gist.github.com/diegoviola/99cbb8908a57...

I just want to get rid of the duplicated code

there's a dpaste copy

What is currently the best way / proper way to do web sockets with django. I spent a while looking into it but it seems everyone has a different approach, with many being out of date.

diegoviola, move as much as you can out of the elif's and put it at the bottom lol

lol ok

i don't know anything about websockets

thanks

darn

maybe there's a django library for it

I saw one or two, but they were horribly out of date.

saw one implementation that looked perfect in python, but it was for flask

nothing for straight python? not everything has to be django-esque

Awmusic12635: from what i hear, channels

hm

moldy ill look into it thanks

an0891: should I move it into another function?

I tried moving that code to the bottom but then I get "rotated is used before referencing it", etc

not sure how to deal with that

rotated is the one thing that looks unique

prob can keep that in the exif

but the output, rotated.save, output.seek and thumb_file can prob be moved out of the elifs

is it your code?

yep

I'm new to python though

give me a min and i'll show you what i mean

rotated has differen values

different

thanks

what are, in your experience, good front ends that can be integrated with django? I'd like something dynamic and stylish but my knowledge in this is very limited... I've heard of jQuery but I'm not sure on support from the browsers if it's like a great option for relatively new projects

glookoza jQuery is remarkably compatible with a wide range of browsers. But it isn't necessarily a front end. Just makes javascript a ton easier

mhh.. and does that help me to get thiings like modals, and have dinamycity? like.. display a set of records, and the user can click on one to be able to edit it?

(I'm a HW guy trying to understand these things)

diegoviola, i dunno, maybe something like this? http://dpaste.com/21FFMK8 only saves like 6 lines but there's less duplication

cool

if x=None

how do i word it

"if x" is the same as "if x != None"

glookoza, you're pretty much going to have to deal with html/css

and javascript / jquery lol

fun will occur

an0891: that looks better indeed, thanks

an0891: thank you, so I won't waste my time if I learn jQuery then

no def not, jQuery is just an easier way to do javascript, gonna have to include jQuery on every page you use it on though

an0891: that's not quite working the same

ya you might have to tweak it lol, more of a rough idea

yep

I might do that later

lol

an0891: thanks for your help though ;)

np, you'll figure it out

:)

that's one of the "code under pressure and just make it work and make it nice later"

for me

I'm using a many-to-many field (equipment) in an exercise table. The foreign key table has two fields name, and props (which is boolean). Some of the equipmetn used is a prop. Can't I just filter directly on the field? like exercise.equipment.filter(prop=True) ?

It doesn't seem to be working. (the filter gives me a string rather than a list)

django-formtools is some witchcraftery

it's exercise.equipment_set.filter - right?

I’m trying to use Django as an OAuth provider with django-oauth-toolkit, but the application (Rocket.Chat) requires an identity endpoint (/me). I gave a look on the OAuth RFC, and the /me endpoint doesn’t seem to be on specs, however it’s very common. Anyone knows more about /me endpoint in OAuth? Should it be included on django-oauth-toolkit?
