Big list of Django tips (and some python tips too)

This is a great collection of Django tips. Worth reading through if you plan on doing any work with Django.
So you want a dynamic form
Bookmarked via Ma.gnolia on Friday, November 14, 2008 @ 11:21 CST by Daniel Andrlik
A useful little tutorial from James Bennett on how to produce dynamic forms with Django. Some of these techniques I have been using on my own, but he provides examples that show a much more efficient way of doing it than I have in my own code.
The basics of creating a tumblelog with Django
Bookmarked via Ma.gnolia on Tuesday, June 24, 2008 @ 10:49 CDT by Daniel Andrlik
I’ve been toying with adapting my site code to do this sort of thing. It’s always nice to see when someone else takes the time to publish their solution. I don’t know if I’ll end up doing exactly the same thing, but this post certainly gave me some ideas.
Generator Tricks for Systems Programmers
Bookmarked via Ma.gnolia on Thursday, April 24, 2008 @ 15:02 CDT by Daniel Andrlik
This is a great guide on generator functions in Python, including use cases. The slides from his presentation (available as a PDF from the linked page) may be the best tutorial I’ve seen on the subject so far.
Django Pluggables: Browsing through code so you don’t have to.
Bookmarked via Ma.gnolia on Friday, April 18, 2008 @ 09:11 CDT by Daniel Andrlik
This is a neat service that collects reusable and “pluggable” Django applications that you can incorporate into your project. While many reusable apps exist, there previously wasn’t any unified listing, so you spent most of your time searching for Google Code projects that had already been put together.
This is just an awesome resource for developers using Django.

This is a useful guide for navigating some of the specifics of getting a Django project up and running on Google App Engine.

Via Simon Willison:
This is a real cool Django app that creates an awesome interface to help internationalize your site. Allows the adminstrator, and an optional group of designated translators to read and write your site’s gettext files.
Django Evolution

This is one of the more promising projects in progress on the Schema Migration front. Schema evolution can be a bit painful and projects like this for automatically migrating database structure based on the Python model code will be a necessity for long term projects.
Google Jumps Head First Into Web Services With Google App Engine
Bookmarked via Ma.gnolia on Monday, April 7, 2008 @ 21:53 CDT by Daniel Andrlik
Google provides major infrastructure for web app hosting, in direct competition with Amazon’s Web Services. Google’s service is free unless you go over your limits, which look reasonable at the outset. Your app needs to be written in Python (more languages available later), which will be a limitation for some, but as you may have noticed I am quite fond of that language. 
That being said, the platform is pretty proprietary, and at this point I don’t have enough info on how easy/difficult it is to get your stuff back out of it if you need to. This is an exciting offering, but one I’ll probably wait and watch on.
