Radio widget with labels after inputs

Difference from standard Django 1.4 implementation is just structure of list. In django `<input>` elements are *wrapped* by their labels, and look like this:: <ul> <li><label><input/> Label 1</label> <li><label><input/> Label 2</label> </ul> This widget puts labels *after* input elements:: <ul class="form-button-radio"> <li><input/> <label>Label 1</label> <li><input/> <label>Label 2</label> </ul> It makes possible to define style for both inputs and labels, hiding inputs and making labels look like pressable buttons. No javascript needed, just CSS (see docstring). To auto-submit the form when pressing a button, JQuery can be added:: <script> $(document).ready(function() { $('ul.form-button-radio input[type="radio"]').change(function() { $(this).parents('form').submit(); }); }); </script>

Safe template decorator

A decorator that restricts the tags and filters available to template loading and parsing within a function. This is mainly meant to be used when granting users the power of the DTL. You obviously don't want users to be able to do things that could be potentially malicious. The {% ssi %} tag, for example, could be used to display sensitive data if improperly configured. {% load %} gives them access to all the unlimited python code you wrote in your templatetags. {% load sudo %}{% sudo rm -rf / %} o_0 Note that the "load" tag (among others) is not listed in the default tag whitelist. If you parse a template (however indirectly) in a function decorated with this, unlisted builtin tags will behave like undefined tags (ie, they will result in a TemplateSyntaxError). Since {% load %} is not whitelisted, you may want to include some custom tags or filters as "builtins" for convenience. Simply put the module paths to the libraries to include in the `extra` kwarg or the `extra_libraries` list. Generally, this is not recommended, as these libraries need to be carefully and defensively programmed. **NOTE**: This **does not** do anything about cleaning your rendering context! That's completely up to you! This merely restricts what tags and filters are allowed in the templates. Examples: from django.template.loader import get_template safe_get_template = use_safe_templates(get_template) tmpl = safe_get_template('myapp/some_template.html') from django.template import Template use_safe_templates(Template)('{% load sudo %}') # TemplateSyntaxError: Invalid block tag 'load'

Load response.content in browser (for debugging)

When debugging tests you frequently need to inspect response content, making a pdb. set_trace() breakpoint and printing response.content but html isn't enough human readable (even for programmers :D) so, why not open it in your browser? Suposse you save this code in utils.py and you break your testcase as this: response = self.client.get(self.url) import pdb; pdb.set_trace() Then: (pdb) from utils import load_response_on_firefox (pdb) load_response_on_firefox(response) Ta-Da!

Drupal password hasher for migration

This BasePasswordHasher allows the easy migration of passwords from Drupal to Django 1.4. Drupal stores its passwords using a SHA512 hash, but with some iterations and postprocessing. This snippet allows you to migrate the username and passwords over seamlessly- the only necessary change is truncating the first character of each password hash (since Django 1.4 stores each password as algorithm$hash). Note that this snippet *requires* Django 1.4, but there is no option for that snippet in the list. Provided as a github gist [here](https://gist.github.com/2344345).
