Working with Django migration with South

I have started doing extensive development with Django and come across an issue with changing the schema (models) frequently.

Lucky for me after looking around on the Internet and some help from Bing. I came across South, a migrations library for Django, that may help in solving problems with models as my web site evolves.

South is found at the following web site: http://south.aeracode.org.

I will continue to use South and update my blog with any big issues or other comments I find with my development.

Django Design Patterns

Over at the Uswaretech Blog, I found an interesting piece of information.

The url is http://djangodesignpatterns.uswaretech.net/index.html.

Here is a quick blurb on it.

‘This is a collection of patterns which we have found occuring commonly with Django. All of these either make collaboration easier, coding simpler or code more maintainable. None of them are design patterns in the sense of GoF design patterns. We call them design patterns as none other seem closer or more convenient.

These are guidelines, which need to be overridden (very commonly, in some cases). Use your judgement when using them. As PEP8 says, “Foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds.”’

I like how the chapters are laid as it is pretty much the way you progress in building a Django web site. (Notice that I did not say project or app, as these are very different meanings in Django.)

Well as you know, I volunteer as a firefighter and EMT at my local fire department. One of the guys at the station showed me these videos and knows the person on the video who it is about. I think it is funny, because there are FF’s who are like this in some way.

And another one I like is this one as well.

Anyways, I will let you judge for yourself.

Well, I got 100% in the Professional Design and Development ASP.NET 3.5 exam. I found the exam pretty easy. It was a mixture of LINQ, OLEDB adaptor, windows custom controls type questions.

You just needed to read the questions very carefully.

So you probably has seen the interesting Hulu advertisements. I decided to check it out.

Here was an interesting movie I watched: It is a Japanese animation film called “Origin  – Spirits of the Past”. It is interesting how the Japanese inter twine nature and human beings together to create some sort of balance and in the case of this film, is in balance.

Enjoy.
