TIP: Django project's annoying errors/bugs

If you encounter the error: ViewsNotFound and there is no error messages in your error logs. here's a way to find out what is causing the error.

" Open your python shell ( python manage.py shell ) and import the views.py that contains the view function that is missing(even if it's not) " then tadddaaah! you will get the error message that you are expecting.

*note: when you encounter some weird errors and you can't trace it try doing it in python shell. It's really helpful and sometimes it saves your life. :D

Refactoring like a Ninja: Using dictionaries(multi-purpose)

Hello i will share some ways on how to re-factor your codes in Django using dictionaries. Gonna post this here as my notes and for future references

have you experienced coding a views.py and you pass alot of context to the template( yet they all do the same but uses different model for example). Here is a sample code in your views.py that you can re-factor using dictionaries.

Here's how i made the code simpler and cleaner using dictionary.

* if you noticed the dictionary model_dic has dual purpose. the value is for the Models( of course) but for the keys, I also used them as the context name( cool idea right?). You won't notice much of a difference between the two code but if you have for example 10 types of news then this would work pretty cool.

That's all!.. hope this would help someone out there xD.

*note: this code do not exist ( i just made it for this post ) and the idea of this is based from Earvin(that's me) -thumbs up-.

Django TypeError Exception

One of the central pieces of Django is urls.py: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/urls/ This file is well documented and serves as a central place to match what pages get served by what URLs. Seems simple enough since they accept regular expressions. One thing I did run into though was getting a TypeError exception. It looked something like this: TypeError at /applicationname/ index() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given) To me I was puzzled why this was happening. The reason is that when Django parses the regular expression it not only does a match but saves each of the tuples in the regular expression. In the documentation it is this line: "The view gets passed an HttpRequest as its first argument and any values captured in the regex as remaining arguments." So what happens is that when you start to get fancy with your regular expressions the function signature in your views.py needs to change as well to accommodate the extra parameters.
