Based on [snippet #1212](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1212/) along with it's comments. Replaced the for loop with translate. example usage: from django.core.cache import cache from mysnippet import cache_key_clean expensive_func = lambda x: 'x{0}x'.format(x) input_string = "I wanted a nice value." key = cache_key_clean(input_string) result = cache.get(key) if result is None: result = expensive_func(input_string) cache.set(key, result)
Displays nested lists / dicts / tuples in an aligned hierarchy to make debugging easy. Accepts all variable types, including nested lists with any mixture of tuples / dictionaries / lists / numbers / strings. Analogous to the PHP print_r($var) function.
Showing a list of logged users using the *user_logged_in* and *user_logged_out* signals. See [login and logout signals](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/auth/#login-and-logout-signals) in Django docs.

Validate Ukraine telephone numbers in popular formats: +380 XX XXX-XX-XX 0XX-XXX-XX-XX (0XX) XXX-XX-XX This snippet fixes the errors found in http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2579/
Validates and cleans UK telephone numbers. Number length is checked, and numbers are cleaned into a common format. For example, "+44 (0)1234 567890" will be stored as "01234 567890" Can reject premium numbers (0912 312 3123) or service numbers (1471, 118 118) with UKPhoneNumberField(reject=('premium', 'service')) Corrects the errors found in http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1207/
Validates and cleans UK telephone numbers. Number length is checked, and numbers are cleaned into a common format. For example, "+44 (0)1234 567890" will be stored as "01234 567890". Can reject premium numbers (0912 312 3123) or service numbers (1471, 118 118) with UKPhoneNumberField(reject=('premium', 'service')) Can reject multiple number types so you can tune the form input to accept only landline or only mobile, or whatever combination you want. Corrects the errors found in http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1207/ and adds extra functionality and detail to the code found at http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2809/ In particular, this version rejects individual invalid area codes and caters for area codes with mixed-length numbering in fine-grained detail. **Uses info from:** [here](http://www.aa-asterisk.org.uk/index.php/Regular_Expressions_for_Validating_and_Formatting_UK_Telephone_Numbers)
This script can be useful if you want to obfuscate your django project sources. I use the [pyobfuscate](http://freshmeat.net/projects/pyobfuscate/) tool, a little bit patched, the patch you can get [here](http://farid.adigamov.com/files/pyobfuscate.patch). The patch switchs off the classes and methods obfuscation as they could be imported from other files. The **pyobfuscate** util can obfuscate only one file at once. This script can obfuscate all .py files from the specified path (src_dir), at the end of the obfuscation it compiles them using **compileall** module. Set the **src_dir** and the **dst_dir** variables. Note: remove original **settings.py** and **urls.py** from the **src_dir** cause **pyobfuscate** util raises an error trying to encode them. The decorators are not handled correctly by pyobfuscate tool. I'm using django for about year and i didn't use the decorators except the '@transaction' decorators. I replace them from the sources at the beginning of the obfuscation and put them at their places in encoded file. In case of using other decorators you should make some changes in code ( line # 64 ).
Almost copied from snipplet http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/752/, but I used Google Maps API v3
`{{ user|nice_name }}` is the same as `{{ user.get_full_name|default:user.username }}`
**Explanation:** I think this shortcut can be util for who uses JSON many times and does not want to write same code everytime. **Setup:** Saves the snippet as `myproject/utils.py` or add the code to some place in your project with same ends. **Use in a view:** from myproject.utils import render_to_json from django.contrib.admin.models import User def json_view(request): admin_user = User.objects.get(username='admin') return render_to_json( 'json/example.json', locals(), ) **Update:** This code can be used as complement to [http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/154/](JsonResponse snippet) too.
This very basic function I was missing in this part of the Django Documentation when creating a custom MultiEmailField: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/validation/
Allows you to search if a user belongs to a given group. Along the same lines as snippet [390](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/390/), but uses a regular ``if`` tag so it is more flexible. (Updated for efficiency. Running a boolean test on a QuerySet avoids a bit of unnecessary overhead.) (Updated to accept a list of groups.)
Automatically adds filter methods to your objects manager based on their display name. class Foo(models.Model): MOO_CHOICES=((1,'foo'),(2,'bar')) moo = models.IntegerField(choices=MOO_CHOICES) objects = ChoiceFilterManager('moo',MOO_CHOICES) Foo.objects.foo() Foo.objects.bar()
a simple guestbook. the guestbook-area and entries can (and should) be styled by CSS. The template extends a "base.html", which should contain a "content" block. The Model is very simple without moderation, admin-comment or any other advanced features, but its easy to extend. i.e. add a Field "active=models.BooleanField()" and add "exclude=['active']" to the forms.EntryForm.Meta class for moderated Entries. Now you can switch the entries on/off in the admin-interface by setting active=True/False this snippet is public domain, use for everything you want. UPDATE: added basic SPAM protection (a do_not_fill field), but you might want to try a captcha-form/Field like snippet 812
