I needed to create a feature for administrators to create accounts and email the *new account was created* email using a button. Remember to change the default template and subject to match your needs. The code is directly taken from `django.contrib.auth.forms.PasswordResetForm.save()`. Notice that the function raises `ValueError` if the user is missing an email address.
Works on saving an already existing entry (updating) but not on saving a new one.
If you currently use `{% csrf_token %}`, you will notice it prints a hidden div, and an xHTML input tag. What if you don't want that hidden div, and/or you want your page to validate with HTML and not xHTML. This snippet returns only the csrf token itself, and none of the related HTML code. You can use it like this. `<input type="hidden" name="csrfmiddlewaretoken" value="{% with csrf_token as csrf_token_clean %}{{ csrf_token_clean }}{% endwith %}" >`
Point '^accounts/login/$' or whatever your custom login path is to the 'negotiate_ntlm' view. This allows you to keep anonymous authentication enabled on IIS and easily lock down just the parts of the site you need to (e.g. [admin](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2127/)).
The middleware assigns a unique identifier for session. The session id doesn't depend of session or whatever else. It only need cookies to be turned on. The session id is reassigned after client close a browser. Identifier of the session could be read from request: request.current_session_id. You can setup name of the cookie in yours settings module (FLASH_SESSION_COOKIE_NAME). request.current_session_id is lazy. It means the ID will be assigned and cookie will be returned to client after first usage.
These are template tags meant to support the construction of text in a random or seeded random (reproducible) way. Two tags are provided: `seed_randomization` and `any`. Only seed the randomization if you wish to have the options generated the same way each time. Only necessary once per request, if done early enough in the rendering process. Example without seeding: <p> {% any %} One day Once upon a time In a galaxy far, far away {% endany %} a young foolish {% any %}programmer|lawyer|Jedi{% endany %} {% any %} set out began his quest ran screaming {% endany %} to pay his stupid tax. </p> # Possible outcomes: <p>In a galaxy far, far away a young foolish lawyer set out to pay his stupid tax.</p> <p>One day a young foolish programmer ran screaming to pay his stupid tax.</p> Be sure to read the documentation in the code.
Add it to MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES and you will get request.current_view getting values like "connection.views.index" or "django.views.static.serve" - one example usage is to show different help text based on current view name. EDIT: actually, you can use process_view middleware function where you automatically get current_view as first parameter.
`{{ user|nice_name }}` is the same as `{{ user.get_full_name|default:user.username }}`
1. Base your test case off `ModuleTestCase` and set a class attribute containing a dictionary of modules which you want to be able to revert the values of. 2. Use `self.modulename.attribute = something` in your `setUp` method or test cases to change the module's attribute values. 3. The values will be automatically restored when each test case finishes. For the common case of reverting the settings module, just use the `SettingsTestCase` as your base class.
Quick and simple twitterize filter to turn Twitter usernames into profile links on your own sites. Add the filter code to your own template tags (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-template-tags/).
Just use it like below: from downloaded_file import SumCase MyClass.objects.aggregate( sum1=SumCase('salary', case='salary < 4', when=True), sum1=SumCase('salary', case='type', when='director'), )
This snippet applies the improved pickledobject snippet http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1694/ to django-techblog's "fields.py" file. Necessary for using postgresql/psycopg2.
This snippet makes Django templates support `break` and `continue` in loops. It is actually more powerful than the respective Python statements as it allows breaking and continuing from an outer loop, not just the innermost. `break` and `continue` are implemented as template filters, with the input value being the loop variable. For example, to break from the current `for` loop use `forloop|break`, and to continue from the next outer loop use `forloop.parentloop|continue`. The implementation monkeypatches Django (specifically Nodelist and ForNode) and has been tested on v1.2 with Python 2.6.
Checks the type of the field (date / time / date-time) and returns corresponding value as a string.
This is a copy of [snippet 654](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/654/), modified to allow dynamic MEDIA_URL, as you might need that for SSL in combination with [snippet 1754](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1754/). This is a template filter to enable the use of the MEDIA_URL setting in content from the flatpages database table. It searches for {{ MEDIA_URL }} and replaces it with the current MEDIA_URL added by a context processor. Note: To set up, drop the above code into a file called media_url.py in your templatetags directory in one of your INSTALLED_APPS, and add the filter to your flatpages template like so: {% load media_url %} {{ flatpage.content|media_url:MEDIA_URL }}
