* Include `__metaclass__ = user_lock` to your ModelAdmin class * Add `__target__ = path_to_user_field` somewhere in the ModelAdmin * done! `__target__` is what will be used in the `filter` call. examples `'user'` or `'author'` or `'message__user'` e.t.c. The result of `__target__` is the field that is then checked against `request.user`
This snippet is a combination of the existing currency snippets I found and some modifications to use your own settings without the need to have the locale installed on the system. You can define in settings.py: DECIMAL_SEPARATOR = ',' THOUSAND_SEPARATOR = '.' CURRENCY_SYMBOL = u'€' With the above settings, using `{{ 1234.30|currency }}` on a template would result in `€1.234,30`
Improved version of http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2205/ Example simple code: ` from django.http import HttpResponse IP_LIST = ['192.168.101.100', '192.168.101.220', '127.0.0.1', '127.0.1.1'] @ip_auth(IP_LIST) def get_parameter(request,name): parameter = get_object_or_404(Parameter,short_name=short_name) return HttpResponse(parameter.value) `
A login_required decorator that wraps the login view instead of redirecting to it. This prevents your site from leaking login information with HTTP status codes as explained [here](https://grepular.com/Abusing_HTTP_Status_Codes_to_Expose_Private_Information). This is the way Django's admin is protected, the difference being that it checks for is_active and is_staff instead of is_authenticated. With this decorators, users directly see a login form (no redirect), post it to LOGIN_URL and are redirected to the page they first tried to see.
This is an improvement of [joshua](http://djangosnippets.org/users/joshua/)'s [SQL Log Middleware](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/61/). If you have more than one database connection, then all queries are logged, grouped by connection. If a connection has no queries, then it's not shown.
serialize model object to dict with related objects
If you're used to auto_render like I am (and think it's an awesome way to DRY code) and you want to support users with and without javascript enabled, this class is perfect. You will need to provide the format requested, either through adding "(\.format)?" at the end of the url or through some middleware, but once you've done so this class will take care of rendering through the given template for normal users, JSON or JSONP for AJAX users.

Uses the token generator located at django.contrib.auth.tokens as an authentication mechanism aimed mainly at API calls. Any POST request with a valid token and user parameter will work as if the user were logged in normally.
Form field for displaying a submit button. Useful when you need to have a submit button in the middle of your form.
Following example provides example how to separate images in group by 3. Can be used for example to build table with tr/tds.
This view parses complex tag queries. It generates a list of model instances matching an expression of tags. The expression currently supports intersection, union and subtraction. Expressions can also be put in parenthesis and then combined with other expressions. The expression must be passed to this view in the tag_expression argument. In my application this is simply passed from the URL querystring. This snippet uses the django-tagging app. It assumes that tags are composed of alphanumeric characters, underscores, hyphens and spaces, but the django-tagging application allows tags with other characters, so you might either want to restrict users to using tags that only contain the above characters, or you might prefer to improve this snippet. Example: This URL http://example.com/people/?(deceased&parrot)|"Monty Python" will retrieve all people who are either deceased parrots or members of Monty Python. In the tag_expression argument: * ALL is treated as a keyword. If you happen (by some sad chance) to have a tag called ALL and want to use it in the expression, surround it in quotation marks. E.g. "ALL" * Examples: - famous -returns all instances of the model tagged with famous - famous&deceased -returns all instances of the model tagged both famous and deceased. - famous|deceased -returns all instances of the model tagged famous or deceased. - parrot-deceased -returns all alive parrots in the model. - ALL-deceased -returns all instances of the model that are not tagged deceased. - ALL -returns all instances of the model - "ALL" -returns all instances of the model that are tagged ALL - "great author"&deceased -returns all models tagged as great authors and deceased. Arguments: * request -- HTTP Request object * tag_expression -- a set expression of tags, supporting intersection, union, parenthesis and difference * app_name -- App for the model we're working on (defaults to pubman) * model_name -- Model on which to apply the set operations (defaults to Article) * view -- view to redirect to after the model instance list has been constructed * html_template -- HTML template to redirect (defaults to 'pubman/tag.html')
here is some working code from a site that maintains profile information (address, phone number, etc) for users ("Partners"). this snippet handles the submitted form (after validation) and checks to see if any fields have been changed by the partner. if so, it shoots off an email to the admin showing the current profile information with changed fields marked with asterisks.
It is not so portable and easy as I wanted it to be because of how django forms work - they don't play well with recaptcha. To get it to work: * Add two variables to your app settings, **RECAPTCHA_PUBKEY** and **RECAPTCHA_PRIVKEY** * Derive forms you want to have a captcha from the provided `ReCaptchaForm` class (how to get it working with ModelForm? any ideas?) * * If you override the form's clean method make sure you firstly call the `ReCaptchaForm`'s clean method * * In your view, upon receiving the form data initialize the objects like this `form = YouFormClassDerivedFromReCaptchaForm(remoteip=request.META['REMOTE_ADDR'], data=request.POST)` (or request.GET of course) - this is because reCaptcha needs the user's remote ip.
A small function to convert a url to another shortened via the bit.ly service. Requires a username and password in django settings.
This slugify correctly transliterates special characters using the translitcodec package from PyPI. Make sure you've installed http://pypi.python.org/pypi/translitcodec/ before using this.
