An old snippet I made in my first django project. Nowadays I code menus in HTML and just use the perms proxy: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.0/topics/auth/#id6 Credits, (awsome persons that helped me getting it to work efficiently and for free): * Yhg1s and waveform from #python@freenode * zendak from #django@freenode Thank you!
See the function docstring.
A proper app was published for this: https://github.com/yourlabs/django-dynamic-fields Try it out !
Example view code: lazy_field_options = { 'field_name_that_is_m2m': { 'queryset': YourRelatedModel.objects.filter(groups=request.user.groups.all()), }, 'field_name_that_is_fk': { 'queryset': YourOtherRelatedModel.objects.filter(slug=request_slug), }, } modelform = YourModelForm(jpic_field_options=lazy_field_options) # after the modelform has called for parent __init__, it will set # options for each field if possible.
With this awesome manage.py, it will try to migrate first when called with runserver. Also, this manege.py has super power to be used in your entry point as such: entry_points = { 'console_scripts': [ # u haz a setup.py -> u haz importable module :) 'yourcommand = yourproject.manage:main', ], }, Example output: $ yourcommand runserver Operations to perform: Apply all migrations: auth, contenttypes, admin, sessions Running migrations: Rendering model states...

September 17, 2017 - 21:21:41 Django version 1.9.10, using settings 'crudlfap_example.settings' Starting development server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/ Quit the server with CONTROL-C. Extra note: it doesn't matter if migrate crashes for now, since django runserver doesn't support not being able to connect to database. So most of the time I hope to shouldn't need to disable this hack.
Dead simple snippet. Paste it in some models (i use project_specific/models.py), and you don't need to run update_index anymore. When a model is deleted from the database: it is deleted from the index. When a model is saved (created or modified): it is updated in the index.
I wasn't sure if my setup supported sessions properly. This view helped me make sure. Usage: fill the inputs with text and make sure that these values traverse a couple of requests. If it doesn't work then maybe the session backend you've set is broken?
This patch allows to open a popup to edit the selected object of either the left or right select input of a filter_horizontal or filter_vertical field, when pressing the "Insert" key. Being a noob with general client-side issue, it's served as a patch that suits my needs. Maybe it's possible to do it cleaner by overloading the javascript methods, or get rid of the jquery dependency in order to integrate it into django trunk ... Any contribution is welcome!
