django has this complex ORM built in to it, but after spending much time on it, it is still hard for me to make queries that are remarkably simple in SQL. There are even some simple things that I can't find a way to do through the django ORM (e.g. 'select distinct column1 from tablename'). Is there any documentation that shows "For com...
Hi django users-- I've been working on a modification of the django-pyodbc package so that it could be used with MS Access.

I want to be able to provide a new lookup for my manager, so for instance, someone could say: twentysomethings = Person.objects.filter(age__within5=25) and get back...
I have a login required page at: http://site1.example.com/widget/52312 If I email someone that link for them to click on, they get sent to the Login prompt.

I'm trying to access an authenticated user within a form class. I played with passing the request object from a viewto the class init, but it seemed sloppy. Is there a better way to access the authenticated user or request object outside of a view? class LicenseForm(forms.Form): '''def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): #self.fiel...
When the person opens my app, I want to display a button. The user clicks this button, and it opens a browser (embedded, of course) inside the app, allowing the user to LOGIN through that web page. Of course, when the person logs in, it only logs in to that web server. The web service now knows that the user is logged in. As the user ...

I'm just learning Django so feel free to correct me in any of my assumptions. I probably just need my mindset adjusted. What I'm trying to do is creating a "class" in an OOP style. For example, let's say we're designing a bunch of Rooms. Each Room has Furniture. And each piece of Furniture has a Type and a Color. What I can see so ...
