#django

which is the recommended way?

use a lib :)

:)

which one recommend me? im not familiar with frontend :/

my JS is 5k non-minified

well, VueJS is getting a lot of good press

and can start off very simple

ok, thanks

I'd recommend React, but I'm biased :P

well, will search for some tutorial then

letsee which are more detailed :)

Just plain React is real simple code-wise, not overly light in terms of weight though. It's 34.8kb gzipped/minified :S

BigJono: going with vue they won't have to spend 2 weeks deciding which other parts to use to complete the framework, and another 2 fucking about with configuring tooling :P

FunkyBob: The answer to that is "no other parts" most of the time. Most of the pain is self-inflicted by people that use way too heavy stacks :P

oh, looks complicated :/

as django run backend and vue too :/

I'm currently using Apache and wsgi and virtual host to redirect traffic to my django process. If I have a filepath located in the folder served by apache, lets say abc.com/xyz how do I make it so that Apache does not serve this to Django but instead handles it?

bschool: you mean mod_wsgi don't you? all django deploys use wsgi

bschool: put an alias for that path, before the wsgi script alias

ok thank you

and yes i did

Perfect, worked great. Thank you for the quick response

np

has been years sinced I used apache/mod_Wsgi ... but I remember doing that for /static and /media ... well, just /static... /media didn't exist then :)

I'm running a forum for discussion about the project. So we started to use the forums for communication and then we got mod_wsgi to work with django and the forums were unavailable lol

didn't i feel like a dunce

heh

easy one line fix though, excellent

this is one thing I like about how I configure nginx, and uwsgi.... I tell them to look for files _before_ calling django

has the added benefit of being able to override any path, pretty much

samsagaz can second vuejs

fission6: i think they entered sleep mode

Can anyone explain which table is queried for the proxy model in this admin page? https://medium.com/@hakibenita/how-to-turn-djan...

back :)

trying to install vue now :)

using webpack

but cant configure it yet

samsagaz: from memory, if you follow the vue tutorial/intro... there's a way to get going without needing all that guff

otherwise, the vue-cli takes care of most of the work

im following the guide https://github.com/ezhome/django-webpack-loader but wont work...

will try to find another tutorial

"wont work" doesn't help us

will back in a few minutes, going to take a bath

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

is the error that i get

when place {% render_bundle 'main' %} in the template

i Have a text field that typically contains more than 500 characters, I only want to display the first n characters in one template, but the entire content in another template. Is there any example of this being done that I can look at?

Should I just do a for loop on the string in the template? That feels bad

99% sure that the problem is file webpack-stats.json

its empty

b0nn: There's truncatechars filter.

Couldn't you just slice it and return it in context

Nevermind, that filter sounds handy

Thanks I'll look into that

works! <script type="text/javascript" src="/static/webpack_bundles/main-315df4b2f5abf7716c38.js" ></script :)

Awesome sauce, truncatechars:n was exactly what I wanted, thanks schnickel

samsagaz: awesome... quick, blog about it :)

btw, now delete it, and trying with vue-cli

following another tutorial...

now needs to figure how use vue :) I Your application is running here: http://localhost:8080

get it running!!!!!
