Something isn't right. Can you post one of your slow views? Your using the development server currently? MySQL is installed locally? What OS?

Yea, using ./manage.py runserver with python 2.5.2, mysql is local, os is Arch Linux.

It doesn't appear that there is any one thing that is dramatically increasing the page load time. There's quite alot of custom queryset code being used, and some model inheritance. I've pasted some of the things that are being called in the view here:

Hmm.. I'd LOVE to be able to do this. In fact, it seems to make perfect sense to be able to make read only models that could use more complex queries in the backend while being more lightweight in Python, since alot of what I'm doing is trying to squeeze out flexibility from the Django ORM, which is going to load alot of objects for each model that I don't need if I'm only displaying data.

Well, as king_kilr said, check out the new 'managed' option for models:

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/options/#managed

It'll let you ensure that Django won't even try to update that particular DB table, meaning you can actually use SQL views and not worry about errors (which, prior to now, would crop up when you do e.g. manage.py syncdb -- it'd try to create or modify your SQL view, which of course would raise a database error).

The feature is in trunk and I believe it'll be part of the 1.1 release; king_kilr pays closer attention than I do and can confirm/deny that.

Indeed, anything in trunk makes it's way into the release. The Django policy isn't to branch for a release after feature freeze, it's to wait until the the release is done before committing any new features.

Ansible: Sep 11, 2003; This is what I get for trusting other people to give me stuff. And that's why I'm so lucky.

Searched through documentation and couldn't figure out how to do this. Here are the (pared down) tables that I'm using:

I have a ModelForm based on the Consumption model, which works for users to add foods to their log. (I'm assigning User in views.py after they POST the form with User excluded, is there a better way to do this?)

Then I want to display a food log summary with nutrient content for each food. I'm passing my_consumption = Consumption.objects.filter(user_id=request.user) into my template context, then looping through the objects within that and can pull everything I need from the related tables User, Measure, Food.

I run into a problem with the Nutrient table. I have a whole gaggle of Nutrients, but only want to show a handful. The only way that I've found I can access the table is with a loop through consumption_item.measure.food.nutrient_set.all - but I can't filter that to only include Nutr_Def_id = 1 (for example). I want to do something like {{ consumption_item.measure.food.nutrient_set.(filter(id_Nutr_Def=1)) }}.

Should I be passing another context to pull this information, or should I have my model set up differently?

Write a template filter/tag to let you do simple operations on a queryset in the template will be the easiest way.

Doing it like that is fine, there are a variety of ways to accomplish this. Another option would be to do this is by passing the user into the form, and overriding save to add the user in. Like so,

code:

class BlankForm(forms.ModelForm):
        def __init__(self,user,*args,**kwargs):
                self._user = user
                super(forms.ModelForm,self).__init__(*args,**kwargs)
                
        def save(self,*args,**kwargs):
                record = super(BlankForm,self).save(commit=False)
                record.user = self._user
                record.save(*args,**kwargs)
		
		return record

I wouldn't do this in the template, filter the nutrients you want from the view, and pass it from the view to the template.

nonathlon: Jul 9, 2004; And yet, somehow, now it's my fault ...

An odd problem: I'm using Django forms in another project due to two different websites (one Django, one Plone) needing the same forms and behaviour on each. (Long story involves connection to a common resource.) Well and fine, I'm happy with django.forms, I know how to use it, it's simple and well behaved but ...

When you try to get the unicode / string version of an error from a Django form it calls a series of functions that move deep inside Django, look for the internationalization setting and end up trying to load the Django configuration file. Obviously this is no good for my "outside of Django" mode, so I overrode the rendering of the form to try and get the value of the error message directly.

But, the errors are actually proxies that are lazily evaluated for whatever reason. (Translation?) And in some cases proxies containing proxies. These proxy objects are generated by the fields clean function This makes it hard to get at the actual value. Currently I'm calling "e._proxy____args[0]._proxy____args" which feels pecarious. Anyone got any other solutions or ideas?

Things I've thought of:

* Subclassing every field class I use to get it to create actual strings not proxies. Blergh.

* Monkey patching the calling functions on the fields. Blergh.

* Put a fake config file in the calling module and fooling the Django machinery into thinking this is the config file. Blergh.

king_kilr: May 25, 2007

if the issue is not having a django settings file you can always do:

from django.conf import settings
settings.configure(MY_SETTING=value, OTHER_SETTING=value)

To set up the right settings for there, because what you're seeing is django's internationalizating framework, you can probably coerce them to strings with just:

settings.configure(USE_I18N=False)

Mashi: Aug 15, 2005; Just wanted you to know your dinner's cold and the children all agree you're a shitheel!

Back to my performance issue:

code:

for record in SearchRecord.objects.select_related('content_type').all():
    related_object = record.content_object

This will generate n+1 queries. Loading each related object seems to take 10ms, when the query to fetch it takes 0.5ms. Does this seem right? It seems like a hell of alot to me.

Dual core box, local mysql, Django dev server.

EDIT: SOLUTION

The problem turns out to be the Debug Toolbar itself!

I would be interested in seeing your sections on design patterns for Django applications. It seems like every tutorial focuses on creating a certain type of application, usually a blog, but doesn't really give best practices for just using Django to develop a regular web site with content that isn't based around articles or blog posts or whatever.

For example, is it best to create an application just for the site's content? So the index of https://www.mysite.com maps to an app in /mysite/main or /mysite/core, which handles serving the whole site? That seems a bit hamfisted, but I haven't seen that properly explained anywhere yet.

Anyone here have experience implementing a graphing systems in a Django app? I am curious if there is an existing API that is solid, or if I should try to hook into one of Google's widgets.

To continue my previous example, I record calories on a daily basis. I then want to graph that over time with a trailing average, and be able to select the duration then update through AJAX. Most graphs that I see look good-awful, or are done in flash.

I've also considered throwing this on Google's App Engine, would that make it easier to link to their widget APIs? I absolutely love their graphing tools, even though most are done in flash. I've never worked with piping data to a flash applet though (but i've never played with python either soo)

I'm currently using the google chart API, but if that isn't pretty enough then I'm sure a python library that uses GD to make pretty charts exists if you do a little googling.

I've been building a JS charting thing using the OpenLayers mapping library, and it has worked out better than I had expected. It is a ridiculous way of doing it though. I was using the jQuery library flot for a while, and it's great. Easy to use, and the API is simple enough.

Flot's the way to go. I tried using Google's Visualization API's but, honestly it's really a mess. I found their methodology to graph construction to to be a bit cumbersome and not intuitive. Flot rocked. I pointed Flot to a URI that spit out JSON and it made a graph and it rocked

I'm planning on creating a new google appengine project soon that will create web pages with artwork determined by user input (basically bezier curves showing relationships). The best method I've come up with is to use SVGs since I want them to scale correctly. I would use in-line SVG code in xhtml, but in-line svg isn't fully supported by all browsers (safari seems to put 100pixel margins at the bottom of any inline svg code). So instead I'm planning on using object= and embed= code, however this means I must create the files before sending. If I can't access the file system on app engine, how can I do this?

I'm just doing theory right now, so the short version is, how do I dynamically create files to send to users without doing anything to the file system?

I don't know exactly how to do this in Django, but the basic idea (I think) is you'd have a view that spews out the SVG, then get Django to write the headers as if you're sending an SVG (because you are). (That's the part I'm not sure about in Django.) Then, in the template where the SVG is to appear, point it to the right URL for the aforementioned view.

This is correct. Headers are stupid easy, just use dictionary syntax on a response object. Here's an off-the-top-of-my-head, these-are-probably-not-the-right-headers example:

code:

def my_svg_view(request):
    svg_data = generate_some_binary_svg_data()
    response = HttpResponse()
    response['Content-Type'] = 'img/svg' # or whatever the mimetype is
    response['Content-Length'] = len(svg_data) # assuming the SVG Python object makes it that easy to get its length
    response['Content-Disposition'] = 'attachment;filename=my_image.svg'
    response.write(svg_data)
    return response

For something intended to be displayed in-browser you'd probably leave off any content-disposition header, but I just threw it in there as it's a common example for downloadable files v :shobon:

Yay: Aug 4, 2007

Ok ignore everything below, after spending hours googling, I'm apparently a spaztard, because 'django file uploads' tells me exactly what I needed to know, I needed to pass in request.FILES and POST. you win, Internet.

So I'm trying to get to grips with Django -- I've got a bit of python experience behind me (fiddling with cherrypy, and qt) -- but I'm hitting a weird stumbling block with models and forms.

I've got a model like so:

code:

class Image(models.Model):
    parent = models.ForeignKey(Gallery)
    deleted = models.BooleanField(default=False)
    created = models.DateTimeField('date created', editable=False, default=datetime.now())
    modified = models.DateTimeField('date modified', default=datetime.now())
    img = models.FileField(max_length=100, upload_to='images') # yes, it should be an ImageField, except PIL isn't installed here
    title = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    description = models.CharField(max_length=250, blank=True)

along with a form and admin already setup; both of which have the fields:

code:

fields = ('parent', 'img', 'title', 'description',)

When using the auto admin, I can fill in the form, upload a file and have it save - super, thats what I'm after. When calling it via the front end, the FileField always makes the form invalid (no error nor traceback, just 'this field is required') using {{ form.as_ul }}

The view I'm working with is like so:

code:

    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = UploadImageForm(request.POST)
    else:
        form = UploadImageForm()

    if form.is_valid():
        form.save()

I presume its something to do with filling it from request.POST, but the tutorial doesn't cover uploads afaik, and the documentation doesn't make it clear how to handle things in file/image fields.

Can anyone shed some light on how to handle this? without file fields, this process works fine, hence my suspicisons about request.POST

Don't worry. I can't tell you the number of times I've reinvented the wheel in Django and in Python. When I have a something I'm looking for a solution now the first thing I do is browse through the Python docs for a few minutes then browse the Django docs.

    string_id = models.ForeignKey(Stringtable, db_column='STRING_ID', primary_key=True, verbose_name="String ID")
    message_name = models.CharField(max_length=4000, db_column='MESSAGE_NAME', unique=True, verbose_name="Map ID")
    description = models.CharField(max_length=4000, db_column='DESCRIPTION', verbose_name="Description")

    class Meta:
        db_table = u'CODE_STRING_MAPPINGS'
        verbose_name = "Code String Map"
        verbose_name_plural = "Code String Mappings"

    def __unicode__(self):
        return "%d: %s" % (self.string_id, self.message_name)

class CodeStringMappingsAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ['string_id', 'message_name', 'description']
    list_filter = ['description']
    #fields = ['string_id', 'message_name', 'description']
    #raw_id_fields = ['string_id']
    search_fields = ['^message_name']

That able is also linked to the Stringable:

code:

class Stringtable(models.Model):
    id = models.IntegerField(db_column='ID', primary_key=True, verbose_name="ID") # Field name made lowercase.
    text = models.CharField(max_length=4000, db_column='TEXT', blank=False, verbose_name="Text") # Field name made lowercase.

    class Meta:
        db_table = u'STRINGTABLE'
        verbose_name = "String"
        verbose_name_plural = "Strings"

    def __unicode__(self):
        return "%d: %s" % (self.id, self.text)

class StringtableAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ['id', 'text']
    search_fields = ['=id', '^text']

The error is fairly descriptive, something is getting a Stringtable object instead of an integer. Unfortunately, I've been looking at the code and looking at the Django admin documetnation and I don't see anything that looks broken.

Anyone see anything?

code:

class CodeStringMappings(models.Model):
    string_id = models.ForeignKey(Stringtable, blah blah blah)

Can you guess what the value of <CodeStringMappings instance>.string_id is going to be? Here's a tip: it's not an ID number.
