hi, has anyone seen their stack trace from runserver being repeated several times when an exception is raised? i'm running django 1.10 with werkzeug 0.11.10, django-extensions 1.7

Hello all, I need to access session within a helper method. Here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/h... shows how to access session out of views. Is this the best practice, or there are another methods that work better? Thanks guys :)

FlavioZ: it works like that anywhere where you have access to te request object

moldy: Could you explain a little bit further? Sorry about that :)

FlavioZ: the session is tied to the request

FlavioZ: so it only makes sense using the session object when handling a request

FlavioZ: we can help much better if we know what you're really trying to do, e.g. what do you use the session for, and what does the helper method do

in general, you access the session with request.session

moldy: Yep, I am aware of that. I have always used sessions within my views where request is present. Now I am getting all confused. I think I need to read more about sessions :) Will be back with more questions

hi

I have some problem with translation. If I use "activate(fr)" it's translate but if I want to change the url for http://127.0.0.1:8000/fr/ it's give me a 404 any hint ?

Astyan: change from what to what…

from english to fr

french*

it's work for english or with the english prefixe like http://127.0.0.1:8000/en/

but not for french

Astyan: please show your settings and url, also where do you use activate

settings.py https://dpaste.de/ZF3Q , urls.py https://dpaste.de/Yk4V

I use activate on a specific view where I need to generate a pdf but I used it just to test if my problem was an easy enough problem to solve in settings

any idea apollo13 ?

Astyan: yes, please show your settings

not those what you think are important, but the whole…

ok

the whole settings.py https://dpaste.de/NwgC

I don't get it.

Astyan: MIDDLEWARE_CLASS does not exist

either use MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES or MIDDLEWARE (but certainly not both)

ok

"Beats ist die Plattform für leichtgewichtige Shipper, die Daten von weit verteilten Maschinen an Logstash und Elasticsearch übermittelt."

lol

Astyan: also test on the shell if it works: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/i...

if not tell me where it fails

who the heck is translating these texts, they must have a really good time

good times

ok it work when I put 'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware' in MIDDLEWARE, seems to crash if I add 'simple_history.middleware.HistoryRequestMiddleware' in but I will investigater this

thanks a lot apollo13

Hi people.

For historisation purposes, I use GenericForeignKey to keep a trace of every change of my models.

But in deletion, the previous histories are deleted too.

Is there a way to keep the data and not dropping entities?

+1 historisation

morenoh149: ?

👍

possibly GFK supports something like on_delete=SET_NULL, i bet the docs have something

At least, I would like to keep the content type.

moldy: Nope, unfortunatly.

When looking at definition, the field doesn't take parameters other than ct_field='content_type', fk_field='object_id', for_concrete_model=True.

"Unlike ForeignKey, GenericForeignKey does not accept an on_delete argument to customize this behavior; if desired, you can avoid the cascade-deletion simply by not using GenericRelation, and alternate behavior can be provided via the pre_delete signal."

so, don't use GFK :p

Hmm. Generic relation is in cause ?

err, GR.
