Django Custom Template Tags And Filters
Django Template Tags are simple Python functions which accepts a 1 or more value, an optional argument, process those values and return a value to be displayed on the page. First, In your application folder, create a "templatetags" directory at the same level as the models and views. You want this directory to be recognized as a Python package, so make sure you create an empty "__init__.py" file. Next, create the Python file that will hold your tags and name it something like app_tags.py. Here is the folder structure should look like: Django Project -> my_app ---> models.py ---> views.py ---> templatetags -----> __init__.py -----> app_tags.py Tags: Tags look like this: {% tag %}. Tags can be used to create text in the output, control flow by performing loops or logic, and to load external information into the template. Tags require beginning and ending tags (i.e. {% tag %} ... tag contents ... {% endtag %}). Django provides about twenty built-in template tags. Here are some of the more commonly used tags for - Loop over each item in an array. if, elif, and else - Evaluates … -
How to customize Django Oscar Models, Views and URL's
In order to customize models, views and urls, you need to fork an Oscar core app in which model/view resides. Then you should be able to override any model/view classes. Steps to fork/customize an app: 1. If you are forking an Oscar app for the first time, then you have to create a root apps-folder in which all your forked apps will exists: $ mkdir yourappsfolder $ touch yourappsfolder/__init__.py 2. Create a python module with the same 'app-label' as the Oscar app: Ex: Customising oscar.apps.catalogue app $ mkdir yourappsfolder/catalogue $ touch yourappsfolder/catalogue/__init__.py 3. If the Oscar app has a models.py, then you have to create a models.py file in your local app. # your custom models go here from oscar.apps.catalogue.models import * NOTE: To customise Oscar’s models, you must add your custom one before importing Oscar’s models. Then, your models file will have two models with the same name within an app, Django will only use the first one. Ex: To add a active field to the product model: # yourappsfolder/catalogue/models.py from django.db import models from oscar.apps.catalogue.abstract_models import AbstractProduct class Product(AbstractProduct): active … -

Django + Celery & Rabbit - part one
Hello, today post is first one in series about Celery in Django application and how to use it. What you gain after reading such series? How to integrate celery + rabbitmq in basic Django application. So what will be our basic application? It is planned to be web service where you can upload mp3 file and then have them transcoded into ogg, wav and ac3 files. I wanted to make easy and in the same time sophisticated project. Recently I started reading an excellent book called Two Scoops of Django: Best Practices for Django 1.8. The book is about what to do and what not to do for your Django project. I feel some opportunity to try advice from the book in real project. I will start from project layout: normally you have something like this: $ tree trancoder trancoder ├── audiotranscoder │ ├── admin.py │ ├── apps.py │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── migrations │ │ └── __init__.py │ ├── models.py │ ├── tests.py │ └── views.py └── trancoder ├── manage.py └── trancoder ├── __init__.py ├── settings.py ├── urls.py └── wsgi.py But in the book authors suggest that it can be changed to something like this: $ tree transcoder transcoder … -

Wagtail: 2 Steps for Adding Pages Outside of the CMS
My first Caktus project went live late in the summer of 2015. It's a community portal for users of an SMS-based product called RapidPro. The portal was built in the Wagtail CMS framework which has a lovely, intuitive admin interface and excellent documentation for developers and content editors.

Climbing up Branches
Today I pushed the latest Evennia development branch "wclient". This has a bunch of updates to how Evennia's webclient infrastructure works, by making all exchanged data be treated equal (instead of treating text separately from other types of client instructions).It also reworks the javascript client into a library that should be a lot easier to expand on and customize. The actual client GUI is still pretty rudimentary though, so I hope a user with more web development experience can take upon themselves to look it over for best practices. A much more detailed description of what is currently going on (including how to check out the latest for yourself) is found in this mailing list post. Enjoy! -
