miscellaneous tools for django
Project description
Miscellaneous tools for django.
existing tools
local sync cache
Keep a local dict in a multi-threaded environment up-to-date. More info, read DocString in ./local_sync_cache/local_sync_cache.py
limit to usergroups
Limit something with only one field, by selecting:
anonymous users
staff users
superusers
..all existing user groups..
More info, read DocString in ./limit_to_usergroups.py
DOM compare in unittests
The Problem: You can’t easy check if e.g. some form input fields are in the reponse, because the form rendering use a dict for storing all html attributes. So, the ordering of form field attributes are not sorted and varied.
The Solution: You need to parse the response content into a DOM tree and compare nodes.
We add the gread work of Gregor Müllegger at his GSoC 2011 form-rendering branch. You will have the following assert methods inherit from: django_tools.unittest_utils.unittest_base.BaseTestCase
self.assertHTMLEqual() – for compare two HTML DOM trees
self.assertDOM() – for check if nodes in response or not.
self.assertContains() – Check if ond node occurs ‘count’ times in response
More info and examples in tests/test_dom_asserts.py
upgrade virtualenv
A simple commandline script for call “pip install —-upgrade XY” for every package thats installed in a virtualenv. Simply copy/symlink it into the root directory of your virtualenv and start it.
To use it, without installing django-tools:
~/$ cd goto/your_env .../your_env/$ wget https://github.com/jedie/django-tools/raw/master/django_tools/upgrade_virtualenv.py .../your_env/$ chmod +x upgrade_virtualenv.py .../your_env/$ ./upgrade_virtualenv.py
This script will be obsolete, if pip has a own upgrade command, see: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/59
..all others…
There exist many miscellaneous stuff. Look in the source, luke!

pip upgrade
To do a pip upgrade in a virtual environment, run this:
~$ cd /YourVirtualEnv/bin ~/YourVirtualEnv/bin$ source activate (YourVirtualEnv)~/YourVirtualEnv/bin$ pip install --upgrade --verbose --editable=git+git://github.com/jedie/django-tools.git#egg=django-tools
The example used git readonly clone url. If you use subversion do this:
(YourVirtualEnv)~/YourVirtualEnv/bin$ pip install --upgrade --verbose --editable=http://svn.github.com/jedie/django-tools.git#egg=django-tools
If you have git write access, use this:
(YourVirtualEnv)~/YourVirtualEnv/bin$ pip install --upgrade --verbose --editable=git+git@github.com:jedie/django-tools.git#egg=django-tools
…or just use our limit_to_usergroups.py script (see above)
fast repo update
To made a fast repository update, you can run this simple shell script:
~$ cd /path/to/django-tools /path/to/django-tools$ ./update.sh
the update script runs “git pull origin master” or “svn update”.
