This is my #1 task these days (literally; it's ticket #1: http://

This won't work because different recipes will have different amounts.

Radek's suggestion is the way to go. But make sure you re-visit your
Recipe class to remove the ManytoMany attrib pointing to Ingredients.
The problem as you have rightly identified is that the intermediate
table (automatically created by django when a ManytoMany field is
used) provides for only foreign keys and does not provide for
additional data fields. Therefore we have to step in and create the
intermediate table with the extra fields via the RecipeIngridient
class.

Also, once you have become comfortable with this approach you could
add some code such as _get_ingredients (in the Recipe class) and

DRY strategy for portal site

Hi,

I want to use Django for portal-like project. There will be no real
"public" and "cms" parts -- everybody with an account can log in in
one place, even admin. Sort of site where Plone was made for.

Now i was thinking what would be the most effecient, DRY way to use
Django here. My first though is to use admin site as a site template.
Copy admin templates into new location and try to use it as much as
possible, and where it needs customizing  -- hook in generic views,
and if it is not sufficient -- custom modifiers.

Is it the right way of work? 

Another thing is authentication. Hard to say without tutorial, but
Django authentication seems powerfull enough for a portal. I am not
sure about ownership of records, the only thing that has something to
do with it is auth_admin_log, is it what you use to track down the
owner and to do some workflow stuff? ( i can imagine that on a news
site content provider cannot publish news, only editor can do it --
that's what I need too).

Anyway, if I want to hook in custom authentication, does it make any
sense to use admin for this? I believe this question was asked
already, but what is the proper way to use custom authentication?

Thanks a lot.

First version is out. I'm attached patch to http:// 
code.djangoproject.com/ticket/65.

btw. Is this thread is more appropriate for django-devel?

Re: deployment processes

How about continuous integration using BuildBot to automatically deploy

Yes, let's move this to django-devel...

Django + Apache2 and mod_python on FreeBSD 5.4

Hi,

I'm posting this in case anyone else is having trouble persuading the  
current FreeBSD 5.4 'port' installations of mod_python / Apache2, and  
Django to play together nicely.

Trivial mod_python examples work fine, but attempts to run Django  
result in Apache crashing with:

   Fatal error 'Spinlock called when not threaded.' ...

This is with everything compiled to use libpthread (the default).

The cure to the problem seems to be to revert everything to use /lib/ 
libc_r.so.

So, create an  /etc/libmap.conf, with:

     libpthread.so.1    libc_r.so.5
     libpthread.so      libc_r.so

My installation:
     apache-2.0.54_2
     mod_python-3.1.4_1

Hope this saves someone wasting a day or so ..

edit_inline

using this simple model:

class Label(meta.Model):
        fields = (
                meta.CharField('name', 'name', maxlength=200, core=True),
                meta.URLField('url', 'url', blank=True, core=True),
        )
        #admin = meta.Admin()

        def __repr__(self):
                return self.name

class Artist(meta.Model):
        fields = (
                meta.ForeignKey(Label, edit_inline=True),
                meta.CharField('name', maxlength=200),
                meta.URLField('url', blank=True)
        )
        admin = meta.Admin()
        def __repr__(self):
                return self.name    

http://..../admin/apps/artists/add 
return:

KeyError: 'Field label_id not found'
either with mysql or sqlite3

where is the error?

You've got the admin objects backwards -- if an object is edit_inline  
on another object, it should not have its own admin, and the related- 
to object needs to have an admin.  So, you should do this:

class Label(meta.Model):
         fields = (
                 meta.CharField('name', 'name', maxlength=200,  
core=True),
                 meta.URLField('url', 'url', blank=True, core=True),
         )
         admin = meta.Admin()

class Artist(meta.Model):
         fields = (
                 meta.ForeignKey(Label, edit_inline=True),
                 meta.CharField('name', maxlength=200),
                 meta.URLField('url', blank=True)
         )
         # Note: no admin!
