Especially setting default imports for shell_plus

mcspud: What do you typically add to the default imports? Any cool tricks?

Hmm

Any straightforward way to write a table that displays contents of a model that a user can modify/delete objects with

Or sometimes just all factories

sms: like admin does?

Not sure actually, wasn't using admin

rajalokan: fields is a dict...

rainierman even

gah

Anybody used django-tables2?

ya

Hmm, is it strictly for displaying data?

I need to find something that's more dynamic for users to modify/remove data elements

Hey, would compiling the python files offer any load-time gains or is that a horrible idea?

you mean pre-generating the pyc files?

there's a module in stdlib for t hat :)

Yes, what's stdlib?

Ah, hang on I think django automatically compiles them

I see .pyc files in the cache

Python does that

stdlib is the standard Python lib

Ah, didn't know that

Thanks for the links! I'll have a read

since Python naturally generates the .pyc files, you'll only incurr a penalty on first import of each file

Could be polymorphic

:P

does anyone else think I'm crazy to try to write a html->odt translator so I can serve text as html via a markdown filter, and still have it display right in documents?

Why though

well, over the API we need to convert text->markdown... and to generate the documents, I dogfood it and use the API content

can't, AFAIK, just directly embed the html in the ODT

but I suspect there's a near 1:1 translation from HTML -> ODT we could get away with

Well it doesn't sound too crazy then

Sounds necessary
