Simple Entity Relationship Diagram using GraphViz
This class generates a crows-foot notation ERD for your models (currently does not include fields) using GraphViz. The cardinality/modality of the relationships isn't perfect, but it works for 99% of cases out there.

inspectdb fixer
This snippet parses the output file of inspectdb and does some alterations. Mostly useful for people who regenerates models from constantly changing legacy databases. The snippet will: *Add quotes around foreign key classes, so the ordering is not significant *Append a related_name property to each foreign key with the value model class name + db_column name to evade collisions in reverse queries like: example.model: Reverse query name for field 'foreignkey' clashes with related field 'model2.foreignkey'. Add a related_name argument to the definition for 'foreignkey'. There's a slight performance degradation with using quotes class name instead of passing the class though.

Generic Permissions
A mixin to define permissions on models. This is more of an abstract model to subclass/customise than a plug-in solution. Explanations are [here](http://www.muhuk.com/2009/05/django-permission-system/).

- authorization
testshell

Default to a static template.

Truncate HTML without breaking tags
Put it in appname/templatetags/truncatehtml.py and load it with {% load truncatehtml %}, then for instance {{ some_story|truncatehtml:100 }} to truncate the story to 100 characters. Tags are not counted in the length given, and character entities count as one character. The filter should never break an open-tag text close-tag sequence without adding in the close tag. It will also preserve character entities. It won't sanitize the HTML, though: garbage in, garbage out. There's a bit more info about how it works in a [blog post](http://ole-laursen.blogspot.com/2009/05/safe-truncation-of-html.html) I wrote.

CountryField (ISO 3166-1)
List of countries based on the ISO 3166-1 standard. List adapated from http://opencountrycodes.appspot.com/python/ This is useful for certain services such as Protx that requires countries in the two letter standard.

convenience parent class for UserProfile model
This is just a reusable convenience parent class to allow you to create and administer an automatic user profile class using the following code: class UserProfile(UserProfileModel): likes_kittens = models.BooleanField(default=True) Whenever a `User` object is created, a corresponding `UserProfile` will also be created. That's it. NB: You will still need to set `AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE` in your settings :-) (PS: It would also be nice to have the resulting class proxy the `User` object's attributes like django's model inheritance does, while still automatically creating a `UserProfile` object when a `User` object is created :-)

Quantize decimal template filter
Takes a float number (23.456) and uses the decimal.quantize to round it to a fixed exponent. This allows you to specify the exponent precision, along with the rounding method. And is perfect for monetary formatting taking into account precision.

Decorator to modify reverse() to render SSL urls
This snippet monkey-patches Django's reverse() method (use for generating URLs from vew functions and parameters) to allow certain areas of your site to automatically have URLs with the correct SSL domain in place. This saves you from having to use unnecessary redirects to guide users to an SSL-encrypted version of a page. This should still be used alongside a redirect-based method (such as [this snippet](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/85/)) to ensure that the user can't access an unencrypted version of the page Simply add the code to the files mentioned in the code. This obviously won't work anywhere that doesn't use reverse(), the admin app seems to be an example of this.

Debug data for forms
I sometimes find that larger forms need data associated with them, but it's a bit of a pain to retype it each time when I'm debugging. The DebugForm base class lets you specify sets of testing data that will be inserted into your form if your project is in debug mode, randomly chosen from the DEBUG_DATA dict.
