Django’s dev server and UTF-8
From time to time I got this UnicodeEncodeError, but I had done all the things (sitecustomize.py, some more) right in order to configure the system in UTF-8. I thought. I did the usual ./manage runserver and since I assumed that on my Mac everything is already properly configured ... -

Django/Dojo Stammtisch in Berlin
For the second time Django enthusiasts are meeting in Berlin on Wednesday, the 15th April, 2009 at 19:30. Find all the details here. And since I will be in Berlin this time, I just simply redeclare this to "Django/Dojo Stammtisch" instead of just "Django Stammtisch" :-). I hope all the ... -
Adobe Air Tour Europe stopped in Munich
Fortunately Tobias found out one day before that Adobe was touring with Air and coming to Munich. Adobe really had provided everything, from breakfast, drinks, lunch too I guess (we weren't there) and beer afterwards (that we didn't miss). It was really impressive. The talks were very Air focused, I ... -
Customize admin for User model
Before django 1.0 I don't remember that there was a way to customize how the admin renders the User overview. Fortunately 1.0 does allow it. It took me a bit to figure out. After searching the web and the django docs I didn't find it right away, so I tried the ... -

Finally we have released dojango. Well, to be honest it's mostly Tobi's work that dojango rocks as it does! Big thanks! So if you are still looking for the right JavaScript toolkit to go with django then you are at the end of your search now. Use dojango! Dojango s a reusable ... -
Web Konferencia 2007.programfüzet.publish()
A Lisp kódok hadát némileg félretéve örömmel jelenthetem be a már korábban meghirdetett Magyarországi Web Konferencia 2007. évi állomását. A minap közzétett programfüzet híven tükrözi a rendezvényen felmutatott a PHP Konferencia-sorozat óta egyre szélesedő technológiák halmazát. Idén az Xdebug eszközt bemutató előadásom mellett az elmaradt Workshop 2.0-ra szánt, a Django ... -
(defun webconf () (”Jó volt, szép volt”))
Végetért a 2007-es Magyarországi Web Konferencia. A CEU konferencia központ négy termében párhuzamosan zajló, összesen 24 előadás komoly szakmai anyaggal várta az érdeklődő közönséget – a Java és ASP.NET gyakorlati bemutatókon keresztül az elméletibb síkon mozgó eszmefuttatásokig. Alkalmazásfejlestés Djangóval és GWT-vel címmel tartott előadásomat a teli hasú hallgatóság számára gondolatébresztőnek szántam, ... -
Just for always and for ever be with me
Idén is, ahogy már tavaly is, noha ezúttal új köntösben, van szerencsém bemutatni az érdeklődő hallgatóságnak a webes technológiák egy éppen aktuális gyöngyszemét. A 2006-os Magyarországi Web Konferencián Django: Python on Rails címmel fogok előadást tartani. 17-én, szombaton 22.00-kor a Love Alliance Soundsystem lép fel a Sarkban. Február 23-án pedig a ... -
JavaScript: Sort object by a value
Actually the headline is not really what I want to say :-). But I don't know any better yet. I just want to write down how I solved sorting the following: >>> var maxSpeed = {car:300, bike:60, motorbike:200, airplane:1000, helicopter:400, rocket:8*60*60} This is a list of vehicles with their (approx.) ... -

Web 2.0 workshop: fejlesztőknek fejlesztőktől
November elején jelentette be Bártházi András a közösség előtt, hogy Palócz Istvánnal karöltve januárban szándékoznak megrendezni a Web 2.0 workshop névre keresztelt szakmai konferenciát, amelyen hazai előadók tolmácsolásában ismerkedhet meg a hallgatóság a webkettő technikai oldalával változatos gyakorlati előadásokon keresztül. A rendezvény természetes ellensúlyozója az igen hevesen bírált, mintegy féléve ... -

Inspiration for a RentaCoder listing
An interesting (well, to me anyway) tangent to my recent post about GetAFreelancer. While looking through my Google Analytics report, I just found a number of referrals from rentacoder.com. Looking further, I find that someone had been looking for a developer for build a solution for “Video Blogging using Django and Flash(tm) Video (FLV)”.If this [...] -
Cited in Bangalore - How cool is that?
As Pradeep just pointed out in my Blog comments, he used parts of my posting on video blogging with Django (which is funnily enough always referenced as “Create your own YouTube site” - a claim I wouldn’t have dared make myself ) as basis/inspiration for a presentation at Bar Camp Bangalore. BarCamp describes [...] -
New Django installation
I just got a new machine, with x64 processor (Pentium D Dual Core — nice machine!) and naturally it’s already running Linux. SUSE 10, to be specific. Now I wanted to move my Django project over from the old machine and the Django installation kept failing. The setup.py told me: Installed /home/tietze/temp/Django-0.91 Because this distribution was installed [...] -
Going to FOSDEM!
… and also, this year I giving two presentations there. I’m presenting OCRFeeder in the GNOME DevRoom and SeriesFinale in the Embedded/Mobile DevRoom! I just love FOSDEM, the spirit of it, the number of important Open Source projects in there and the city of Brussels! If you wanna have a chat about OCRFeeder, SeriesFinale, Hildon [...] -
Django book completed. Congrats to Adrian and Jacob!
Jacob Kaplan-Moss posted to his blog yesterday that the Django book (Pro Django. Web Development Done Right) is completed and is now going off to the printers. He writes: “It should start shipping to bookstores around the second week of December.”This is great news! It’s great news for the Django platform — it’s a true [...] -
Python class at Master in Free Software 09/10
Last Friday I gave an introduction to Python as class in Master in Free Software. In this session I tried to cover Python from the very basics to decorators, properties and PDB. All covered only as an overview, not in deep detail. After the introduction we did a simple PyGTK application to list the files [...] -
Video Blogging using Django and Flash(tm) Video (FLV)
I just added Flash-based (FLV) video blogging support to my Django-powered travel portal site, trogger.de. The whole process is surprisingly simple and straightforward and can be done entirely with free (FLOSS) tools. The video publishing workflow consists of the following parts: A Django model to store our video and associated information An upload form where the user can [...] -
English version of trogger travel portal launched!
I just launched the English language version of my Django-powered travel portal, trogger.de. The newly-launched English version is at trogger.info. For those who haven’t yet checked out trogger, trogger is a travel-oriented Web community site, where users can maintain travel blogs, post travel reports, share holiday insider tips and publish photo albums. The most recent extension [...] -
Amazed at Django
I spent this weekend working on a new portal site for which I had the idea a couple of days ago (yeah, I know — weekends are for something else; but it was absolutely freezing cold here in Germany, so I succumbed to my inner geek). I’m building the site using the Python Web framework [...] -
FOSDEM 2011 and GNOME Foundation
That’s right, once again I could count on Igalia‘s kind support to be able to go to this great conference one more year. Just like last year, I’m giving two presentations: * Making the printed world accessible: A11y in OCRFeeder, in the Accessibility DevRoom on Saturday at 11:00; * Grilo: Integration of Multimedia Contents in [...] -
Apologies to Django Community
I have my blog syndicated in Django Community since a while now and I’ve always respected Django Community’s rules by only having Django related posts appearing there, that is, by making good use of the Django category/filter have syndicated there. Today, I’ve realized that many of my posts unrelated to Django have appeared in Django [...]
