Use this function to merge model objects (i.e. Users, Organizations, Polls, Etc.) and migrate all of the related fields from the alias objects the primary object. Usage: from django.contrib.auth.models import User primary_user = User.objects.get(email='[email protected]') duplicate_user = User.objects.get(email='[email protected]') merge_model_objects(primary_user, duplicate_user)
Call this function as the first thing in your cron, or console script; it will bootstrap Django, and allow you to access all of the Django modules from the console, with out using 'python manage.py shell' Examples: # A script within your django project. from django_bootstrap import bootstrap bootstrap(__file__) --- or --- # A cron script located outside of your django project from django_bootstrap import bootstrap bootstrap("/path/to/your/project/root/")
Cheers to limodou for getting me thinking about this. The only problem with his implementation is that it doesn't support Django's "." syntax for accessing array/dict elements. In the Django style of allowing simple syntax for designers while allowing for greater flexibility, and less template duplication for conditionals that were previously impossible to represent in templates, I modified Django's built-in If tag. This is an adaptation/enhancement to Django's built in IfNode {% if ... %} that combines if ifequal ifnotequal into one and then adds even more. This Supports 1. ==, != 2. not .... 3. v in (1,"y",z) 4. <=, <, >=, > 5. nesting (True and (False or (True or False))) How to use it: {% pyif i == 1 or (5 >= i and i != 7) and user.first_name in ('John', 'Jacob') %} 'Tis true. {% else %} 'Tis false. {% endif %} I hope you like it.
