https://dpaste.de/rW1A#L12,19 so the question is why is my filter being interpreted as created_by_id in line 12 when it should be type like in line 19.

Er sorry look at this one https://dpaste.de/Wpba#L12,19

It doesn't look like the filter in line 1 ever is applied in the first query, but if you look at line 19, you can see it works.

mRWaffles: https://dpaste.de/Wpba#L9 -- where is that UNION coming from?

I don't think you can filter a .union() queryset

That must be the problem.

The union is from a weird permission back end I made

That lets people see all the objects they create as well as those they have roles for

So you can't apply additional filters to a union, is that correct?

not really sure about filters, but there's a lot you can't do on union querysets

sharktopus: Thanks, I got sucked into a meeting, i'll try that request.post trick

how does debugging a django app look like? in ipdb or pudb. meaning how do I get started?

Well shit.

You are right "In addition, only LIMIT, OFFSET, COUNT(*), and ORDER BY (i.e. slicing, count(), and order_by()) are allowed on the resulting QuerySet."

If I have nginx proxy Django and I give it some endpoint /app, in my main project's urls.py do I need to do '^/app/djangoendpoint/' or is there an nginx setting so I can only pass the /djangoendpoint part of the URL?

you can configure it to work in any way you desire

both nginx and django route regex give you the flexibility to go either way with it

Ah, oh. What's the nginx setting so I could get rid of the /app part when handing it off the Django?

sounds like you just need to rewrite the url as you pass it to the backend?https://serverfault.com/questions/37967...

Ah, that's what it is! Thanks!

steelcowboy: that's almost certainly not what you want, since all internal links will be missing the /app prefix. what WSGI server are you using?

Oh, whoops. Gunicorn

Why can't you filter a unioned queryset :(

knbk: what if dude is versioning some APIs with nginx as the proxy and router

steelcowboy: or well, it is what you want, but you need to add ``proxy_set_header SCRIPT_NAME /app/`` or something

sharktopus: ??

that doesn't change the fact that you want internal links to include the path prefix

not necessarily

I'm using ModelForm and would like a given field to contain it's instances' pk in the class/id name. How can I go about doing this?

i just gave a case where it isnt necessarily true that you'd want the path prefix to be different at each django instance

in any case it doesnt matter enough to argue about :)

I'm confused. knbk are you saying I shouldn't chop the URL before I send it to Gunicorn?

steelcowboy: if you're looking for advice and not an answer then I'd say don't munge your URLs at all

So in nginx location /app { ... } and in urls.py r'^app/endpoint/'?

yes that is my preference

less cognative load

less confusion about what routes where

its just all very explicit

you can look at just your urls.py files and feel confident you understand what goes where, if nginx is doing path rewriting you now need to think about and possibly check two locations

and that's assuming your nginx configuration isnt dynamic in some way

steelcowboy: ok I found a working setup

if you want it that way, you need to rewrite the url to cut of /app/, and use ``proxy_set_header Script-Name '/app/';``

that way Django knows that all urls should start with /app/, e.g. when reversing urls

but you won't have to add /app/ to all your url patterns

is it possible to get model name "MyModel" inside default_func function, called in MyModel.uuid = models.UUIDField(..., default=default_func, ...)

lorddaedra: a callable default doesn't get any parameters, but you can use a partial to pass in the model: ``def default_func(model_cls): ...`` and ``default=functools.partial(default_func, MyModel)``

understand, thank you...

hi, recenrly I update my django 1.9 -> 1.11 , but i have problem when i run -python manage collectstatic django.core.exceptions.SuspiciousFileOperation: The joined path (/Users/c02stf74fvh3/desarrollo/rapigodjango/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot) is located outside of the base path component (/Users/c02stf74fvh3/desarrollo/rapigodjango/rapigodjango/static)

knbk: Excellent! Thank you so much for your help!

Hello

knbk: My rewrite rule made it 404 :(

steelcowboy: can you show your nginx conf?

Sure, give me a minute

I'm not very experienced with webservers so excuse my limited knowledge of nginx configuration haha

Hi, Im trying to parse a complex slug with multiple variations. Ethernet1, Ethernet1,FastEthernet10,FastEthernet0/1,FastEthernet1/0/9,FastEthernet2/0/32,GigabitEthernet4/0/3

I found it much easier to just enclose each slug with () from the source and strip () off later. No problem with that right?

yaplej I'm not sure what you mean

but https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html#regul...

My URL can be like this: /001049000000/GigabitEthernet9/0/32/FOC12345/WS-C3750-48PS-S/Cisco Systems Inc. where 9/0/32 are part of a single slug.

knbk: What do you think?

To make it easier I thought to just enclose each slug in () like this /(001049000000)/(GigabitEthernet9/0/32)/(FOC12345)/(WS-C3750-48PS-S)/(Cisco Systems Inc.) so its easier to separate each slug.

steelcowboy: I just realised I never got it working in the first place, so I just set the FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME setting in Django

yaplej I'm really not sure what you're trying to do. If you're trying to decide what URL pattern scheme you are planning to use I think that one looks god-awful

steelcowboy: if you just set FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME = '/app/' in your setting, and do the rewrite, it should work, though it's not the cleanest way

Hm, weird. Alright, well thank's for your help!

I don't know why you need to encode / into the url without subsitution

but you could do the parsing with regular expressions

thanks. Don't know why I had that random apostrophe haha

if you understand regular expressions and have some kind of reason to proceed with that monstrous url scheme
