Small talk I did for our local Python Group!

Transcript

1. Introduction to Django @myusuf3 because who reads documentation
2. What is Django? The D is silent.
3. BlogIt The future of online writing, maybe.
4. $ django-admin startproject blogit blogit ├── blogit │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── settings.py │ ├── urls.py │ └── wsgi.py └── manage.py
5. $ django-admin startapp blog * be sure to add new app in settings file
6. from django.db import models class Author(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) class Blog(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=200) text = models.TextField() pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published', auto_now_add=True,) author = models.ForeignKey(Author)
7. $ python manage.py makemigrations blog
8. Migrations for 'blog': 0001_initial.py: - Create model Author - Create model Blog
9. $ python manage.py migrate
10. Operations to perform: Synchronize unmigrated apps: staticfiles, messages Apply all migrations: admin, blog, contenttypes, auth, sessions Synchronizing apps without migrations: Creating tables... Running deferred SQL... Installing custom SQL... Running migrations: Rendering model states... DONE Applying blog.0001_initial... OK
11. View from Top The steward of control
12. def post(request, post_id): post = get_object_or_404(Blog, pk=post_id) return render(request, 'post.html', {'post': post})
13. Templates and Rendering Making things look beautiful
14. <h1>{{ post.title }}</h1> <h4> Posted: {{ post.pub_date }}</h4> <h4>Author: {{post.author.name}}</h4> <p> {{post.text}} </p>
15. Feature Request! CEO has epiphany!!
16. def latest(request): posts = Blog.objects.all() return render(request, 'posts.html', {'posts': posts})
17. {% for post in posts %} <h1>{{ post.title }}</h1> <h4> Posted: {{ post.pub_date }}</h4> <h4>Author: {{post.author.name}}</h4> <p> {{post.text}} </p> {% endfor %}
