Snippet List
Update All Apps to Latest Revision
This snippet is based on [#844](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/844/ "#844") and [#892](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/892/ "#892") and updates all apps in the current directory using hg, svn, git or bzr. Including subdirectories not under version control (subfolders to keep your stuff organized). For example: python/lib/ django-trunk/ django-0.96/ pydelicious/ (...) django-apps/ django-tagging/ django-pagination/ django-registration/ django-threadedcomments/ django-mptt/ (...) The script will iterate through all of your apps (in the current dir and also recursively in subdirs NOT under version control) and update them to the latest version. To run, simply execute: python update_apps.py in the desired parent folder. Just in case it could be useful: In my case I'm using MAC OS X. I have a folder full of miscellaneous scripts under my HOMEDIR, with this content: /Users/Dedaluz/bin/update_apps.py /Users/Dedaluz/bin/update_apps (this is a bash script) The update_apps script contains simply: #!/bin/bash python /Users/Dedaluz/bin/update_apps.py Then I put this folder in my path, so in my /HOMEDIR/.bash_profile I add this line export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin And I just can update from any parent folder just going there and typing: update_apps

sorl.thumbnail processor: white background
If you want to resize transparent PNGs with the `{% thumbnail %}` templatetag, they'll sometimes get an ugly black background that looks even more ugly on a white background. This processor puts the image on a white background. You can simply change the background color by replacing `white` with any other color. To use this filter simple put the following two lines of code in your settings file: from sorl.thumbnail.defaults import PROCESSORS as THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS = ('path.to.white_background',) + THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS
- png

very simplistic url cache flushing
This is an (overly simple) example of how to manually delete something from the cache. Usage is simply `delete_url_cache('/some_view/')` This most likely doesn't work when using Vary headers but does seem to work fine for the most general case of simply needing to programmatically flush the cache after certain actions.

Replace Paragraph Tags for Flash
This template tag does two things needed to display content from something like a TextField wrapped with TinyMCE in Flash's htmlText component: 1. Replace `<p>` tags with `<br />` 2. Strip all occurances of `\n`

Serve static media files from app/media subdirectory
This view will serve media files from all media subdirectories of apps in your INSTALLED_APPS setting. Save the view as media.py in your django site folder and add to urls.py: if settings.DEBUG: urlpatterns += patterns('', (r'^media/(?P<appname>\w+)/(?P<path>.+)$', 'devel_site.media.serve_apps') )` Now suppose your installed apps setting looks like: INSTALLED_APPS = ('org.myself.myapp', ...) Then a request to http://localhost/media/myapp/directory/file.css will serve the file org/myself/myapp/media/directory/file.css.

Git recent commits template tag
Requires [GitPython](http://gitorious.org/projects/git-python). Grabs the most recent commits to a Git repository, as defined in `settings.py`. Inspired by [Simon Willison](http://simonwillison.net)'s [about page](http://simonwillison.net/about/). **Example:** {% get_recent_commits 10 as commits %} <ul> {% for commit in commits reversed %} <li>{{ commit.commited_date }} - {{ commit.message }}</li> {% endfor %} </ul>

RefreshSessionMiddleware
This middleware refreshes the session before it expires to avoid dropping the session of an active (but read-only) user. By default it refreshes the session after half the expiry time has elapsed. (This middleware does nothing for browser-length sessions.)

versioned_media templatetag
Best practice based on [YSlow recommendations](http://developer.yahoo.com/yslow/), add the following to your Apache config for your media directory. <Directory /home/.../site_media/> ... FileETag None ExpiresActive on ExpiresDefault "access plus 10 years" AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css application/x-javascript </Directory` Make sure to enable mod_deflate and mod_expires.

Templatetags to output users online, last registered users, and the last logins.
Special thanks to all the authors of djangosnippets. It's my first contribution. Maybe the method **online_users** could be better, but for now it's working for me. Best Regards from Bolivia.
