The SplitTimeField and the corresponding widget SplitDateTimeWidget show two select boxes with one for hour from 0 to 23 and the other showing minutes 0,15,30 and 45 (can be customized very easily). Usage: ------- class TestForm(forms.Form): start_time = SplitTimeField(widget=SplitTimeWidget) end_time = SplitTimeField(widget=SplitTimeWidget)
This is my personal tagging system that I have created. It is intended to be used for multiple applications. This tagging system also has a build in tag cloud that will generate based on the most frequently used tags that you have used or based on the number of clicks users have clicked on a particular tag.
Unicode is great, but there are places where the conversion ends up with unintelligible characters. I first noticed this with curly quotes entered in forms on our site. `unicode_to_ascii` converts compound characters to close approximations in ASCII: such as umlaut-u to u, 1/2 (fraction glyph) to 1/2. You can add additional mappings in CHAR_REPLACEMENTS.
Adds filtering by ranges of values in the admin filter sidebar. This allows rows in numerical fields to be grouped together (in this case, group by price): By store price All < 100 100 - 200 200 - 500 500 - 2000 >= 200 **To use:** 1. save the code as rangevaluesfilterspec.py in your app's directory 2. add `import rangevaluesfilterspec` to your models.py 3. add `myfield.list_filter_range = [value1, value2, ...]` to your filter field **Example:** from django.db import models import rangevaluesfilterspec class Product(models.Model): store_price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=2) store_price.list_filter_range = [100, 200, 500, 2000] class Admin: list_filter = ['store_price'] Note that two extra groups are added: less-than the lowest value, and greater-than-or-equal-to the highest value.
This is a quick and dirty way to reuse the Django templating system for your own ends. Just pop in the familiar Django template syntax into whatever content you like and any chunk of content can be a template. This is great if you need to wrap data in HTML (as in for a mass email). The best part about this is that your "template" can now be stored in a database, instead of just in the file system.
Just a simple regex function to convert a camel case string ("ClassName") to a lower case string with underscores ("class_name"). Came across a need for this when I was trying to add properties to a model at runtime using `object.__class__.__name__`. This is a modification of the function "get_verbose_name" found in django.db.models.options.
Simply adds an attribute `is_ajax` to a request object, indicating if the request was made via Ajax. Allows you to reuse a lot of POST processing view code to which you'd like to progressively add Ajax: `if request.is_ajax: return JsonResponse(some_json)` `else: return render_to_response('some_template.html')`
This is a multi file upload widget. That does not require adding multiple file input fields. It requires jQuery.MultiUpload (http://www.fyneworks.com/jquery/multiple-file-upload/)
Two common generic views to be used with newforms in similar way django.views.generic.create_update views, but adapted to the newforms library.
This is the view-code to export a database-dump (hardcoded for mysql) or a media_root dump via the admin interface. just add 2 urls patterns to call the views and a small template with a simple form to send a http-post to the views. Note: The downloads are sort of streaming. I have successfully exportet a 2GB media_root as tar-ball without major increase of ram-usage of the django-process.
Authentication backend for Simple Machines Forum user database. Needs one setting in `settings.py`: SMF_PREFIX = 'smf' This is prefix of SMF tables. This shippet assumes that they are in the same database. There is one more optional setting: SMF_GROUP = 1 If set, will allow only users from group with given id. May be used to allow access to admin page only for moderators.
This is a simple FCK editor widget that can be used in newforms in place of Textarea. Obviously it requires [FCKeditor](http://www.fckeditor.net/) and you will need to set the proper import path for that.
Tag to generate a navigation list from a YAML file. Generates a series of divs but to be more semantically correct could do a ul or dl.
This is modification of Django's original adminapplist template tag. You can move your models from one app to other or completely hide them with this mod. Copy django_dir/contrib/admin/templates/admin/index.html file to your templates/admin folder, open it, then change {% load adminapplist %} to {% load custom_adminapplist %} (or whatever you named the templatetag file) After that, write your regrouping schema to settings.py file like this; UPDATED, now using tupples instead of dicts in APP_SCHEMA to make it more DRY. ` APP_SCHEMA=[ ( ['Model','List'], 'From App', 'To App', ), ( ['FlatPage'], 'Flatpages', 'Site Content', ), ( ['Product'] 'Product', 'Shop', ), ( ['Site'] 'Sites', #We are hiding Site model by not defining a target. ), ] `
Use this snippet at the end of your main settings.py file to automagically import the settings defined in each app of `INSTALLED_APPS` that begins with `APPS_BASE_NAME`. Set `APPS_BASE_NAME` to the base name of your Django project (e.g. the parent directory) and put `settings.py` files in every app directory (next to the `models.py` file) you want to have local settings in. # works in the Django shell >>> from django.conf import settings >>> settings.TEST_SETTING_FROM_APP "this is great for reusable apps" Please keep in mind that the imported settings will overwrite the already given and preceding settings, e.g. when you use the same setting name in different applications. Props to [bartTC](http://www.djangosnippets.org/users/bartTC/) for the idea.
