specify column for foreignkey ?

oh to_field

got it

can I update a field based on another field like here, where deleted_at and updated_at are in the same row of the same model? https://dpaste.de/q2qJ

seems there has to be a better way then iterating at the application level

Is "git push -u origin master" only used on the first push?

empedokles78: generally, yes

empedokles78: Generally speaking yes, you'll only do that on the first push. -u means "set-upstream" i.e. what remote repository / branch you are subscribed to when you do a git pull

I'm running into a bit of an issue with file uploads in django. I've declared a model with a FileField (Used ImageField earlier but when that failed I tried to experiment) and I can't get it to actually save. Code snippets are available on https://dpaste.de/ekO4 . Both the admin portal and my normal view returns a "This field can't be blank". It is required but I do actually post a file. My form encoding is correct and when I do a print(request

.FILES) I do see the file getting posted.. but for some reason the django form thinks it doesn't get posted. Anybody have any ideas? I'm at my wits end here :-(

i'd usually recommend a workflow where you almost never do this, though :)

well - its usefull when importing code to a new repo

empedokles78: i'd generally recommend this workflow: https://dpaste.de/sA0D

empedokles78: which means that you basically never push to a master branch

empedokles78: https://dpaste.de/ifAY <-- fixed the comment on line2

and https://dpaste.de/CV7X with better highlighting ;)

I hate it that I can't figure out what the f i'm doing wrong lol. Every hypothesis I think of turns out not to be the problem :-/ But my file uploading still isn't working.

cest la vie

I've verified that it is posted correctly and request.FILES has the file in it, but my form validation still throws an error and I can't figure out why :-)

Dratone: can you show us the template?

why is 1.10.3 not on pypy?

template, sure hang on (Though - the admin does the exact same thing btw)

and while you're at it, also the form

oh, that is interesting

sorry, pypi

hence my problem lol :-)

https://dpaste.de/EA5y - Added the template and form

F... me

I just fixxed it lol

hang on - trying to find out what exactly it was lol

Oh.. my.. damn lol.. Apparently.. when you specify default='' in the filefield.. it stops working

No idea why.. but that was apparently the issue. Thanks for playing rubber ducky ;-)

hm, interesting

i wonder why

Yeah.. I'm trying to find the corresponding code but.. nothing jumps out just yet

Dratone, thx.

moldy, sorry I was away, I can't quite follow. I am the single programmer. :)

well "hobbyist".

empedokles78: i do this even if i am the single programmer, at least most of the time :)

doesn't hurt to acquire good habits. but, ymmv.

Hmm. it is a useful workflow for a lot of things but.. I work on a couple projects where that actually isn't a good idea unfortunatly. For instance, I work with some friends of mine on UE4 projects and blueprints and things like that are all stored binary.. so conflict resolution is very difficult. So in that setting we always worked just on the master branch because otherwise merging would be quite.. impossible lol

always going through a pull request gives your CI a chance to catch errors *before* they go into master, which is nice even if you're working alone

That I do agree with hehe :-)

Dratone: shouldn't the merge be trivial unless the file has changed on master, too? or is there some problem i am not seeing?

what does "git fetch --all"? -don't get the difference among origin and upstream. I only have gitlab.

lets say you have 3 branches. Master, feature1, feature2. Both feature branches are based of of master branch on commit 5. I make changes to file a and person 2 does to.. I can merge my changes easily enough into master but the second merge.. not so much
