#django

with url I mean

domain

you mean fully qualified? why?

FunkyBob: field name is news[0][one], news[0][two], news[1][one]... So I tried get with request.POST.getlist('news') and request.POST.getlist('news[]')

Erayaydin: news[1][is_save] <--- you never posted any field called news

FunkyBob: output None

or news[]

ah php/ruby style array notation

Erayaydin: if you want to use a non-standard custom field format... you will have to deal with processing it yourself

FunkyBob: How nested input array than? I want 2 depth array, I tried field-1-one

nope

doesn't work with that either

randominternetus: nope what?

gives me 404

randominternetus: what does?

Erayaydin: well, when it comes to passing complex structures, most people use JSON

this /media/static/image/1951.JPG

randominternetus: did you move the files?

with full url gives 404

I reuploaded

randominternetus: are you using runserver?

yeah

it's dev mode

did you add a url pattern to serve MEDIA_URL ?

no :(

What should I do?

that's why you get 404

given I only ran startapp foobar, to remove it, only delete files and dirs, right? there's nothing in migrations dir, and I haven't added any code

FunkyBob: I use plain HTML without JS dependency and form submit without JS/Ajax. I think, I should add hidden field for iter unknown count of post

for example,<input type="hidden" name="total" value="20" /> news-0-image, news-0-is_save, news-1-image, news-1-is_save and iter it with for in python code ? Right

Erayaydin: sure, if you like

I have seen a python lib somewhere for processing that PHP style stuff...

I dont like this structure but its easy to fix :P :(

any reason you don't use a formset?

moldy: I tried, but I need modelformset with factory in admin page. It break with built-in django page

I tried to extend "base_site.html" in built-in template

wait, what?

It didn't go well, I think I did mistake

so is all of this trying to customise admin?

No, adding custom page in admin with multiformset

...

I try to build a crawler

I keep telling people not to use admin for their site... they don't listen

I'm going to bed

I am also say that

but that Interview....

g'night

If I make choice, I will go use Flask or vibora :P

Can I use a django-filter custom FilterSet on a DRF Viewset? I add filterset_class but it seems to be ignored completely

Maybe it only works on APIView not viewsets?

yes to the first question, maybe to the second

Yes I can use a custom filterset on a viewset, but maybe it only works on a view? seems contradictory

Viewsets are APIViews IIRC?

fpghost84: ah, missed that you said ViewSet in the first question

all the example in the docs I can find use ListAPIView and filter_class added....I'm using a model viewset, and added the same, and absolutely no filtering takes place it seems

where did you read about `filterset_class`?

here they are filtering generics.ListAPIView

the DRF docs say `filter_class`. does that work?

did you set the filter backend?

I have filter_backends = (DjangoFilterBackend, filters.OrderingFilter)

filter_class?

you mean filterset_class?

hmm, should work

i'd pdb into some interesting locations

how did you check if it's working?

filter_class works :o

but the docs say filterset_class??

what made you think (correctly) filter_class?

I think they changed from filter_class - > filterset_class in latest version, and it seems I'm using the old one, not consistent with docs

oh well, crisis over. thanks

fpghost84: DRF docs use filter_class, django-filter docs filterset_class

Hey people, how might I use a button to run some django code without refreshing the page?

i'm guessing that attribute is looked up by the filter backend itself

twtduck: ajax

moldy: thanks....don't suppose you know how to filter on an attribute of a field too? like I have a datetimefield and I want to filter on the .year? Do I need a custom filter method?

I want to remove all tabs, spaces and new line chars from the begin and end of a string. can I do str.strip(r'\t\s\r\n') ? or should I import re and do it that way?

strip() already removes whitespace characters

fpghost84: iirc this is documented in the django-filter docs, `__year` might work, but not sure

even if you define that chars? I thought that it overrides what it strips

v0lksman: so don't define them?

it does ... but you're defining whitespace characters ... which is what it does by default

I need to define them because whitespace != tabs and new line

yes it does

if you want to strip exactly those 4 chars and nothing else, than you can do it like you said, yes

it wasn't removing them hence this road I'm on

"<tab>...</tab>".strip() will remove the tabs

(ditto \n)

it was new line specifically that made me start looking deeper

moldy: hmm, I thought it would be that, but it seems that notation for related fields, and throws exception

but I'll test further

len("\tlol\t".strip()) == 3

"\tfoo\t".strip() --> 'foo'

ditto if the \t is \n

fpghost84: you can also hook in a method or such. check their docs.

I strongly suspect your actual problem is whitespace between character ranges

ie: "\ntest\nwhee\n" won't remove the middle "\n" ...

in which case you'd either need to splitlines() or use regex or whatever, yeah.

no...it was users copying and pasting a string into a search field and capturing the newline so the string would have a new line on it

(and fail the search)

originally I was using rstrip too but switched to strip as it makes more sense
