Project description
Django Web Utils
Some helpers for working with the web.
Provided are:
format_currency
formats currency (USD) to a string.
>>> cash = 1250 >>> formatted = format_currency(cash) '$1,250.00'
>>> formatted = format_currency(cash, places=0) '$1,250'
>>> cash = 0 >>> formatted = format_currency(cash, show_zero=False) ''
format_currency template tag
For django to be able to find the templatetags, you’ll need to register web_utils in your INSTALLED_APPS settings
{% load formatting_tags %}
# value, places, show_zero flag. {% format_currency cash_amount 0 “False” %}
ping_google_sitemap
A signal receiver to ping Google Sitemap to let them know your content changed
Add the following to settings.py PING_GOOGLE_SITEMAP = True SITE_DOMAIN = ‘http://www.example.com’
Add a named url: ‘sitemap’ so the method can resolve your sitemap url
Register the receiver on whatever signal you’d like to trigger the ping.
receiver(models.signals.post_save, sender=BlogEntry, dispatch_uid=”BlogEntry”)(ping_google_sitemap)
SSLMiddleware
Allows you to force various urls through https or http
Add SSL_ENABLED = True to your settings.py
Add web_utils.middleware.SSLMiddleware to your middleware settings
Add a USE_SSL = True/False to a route’s view_kwargs
url(r’^admin/’, include(admin.site.urls), kwargs={‘USE_SSL’: True}),
By default, all routes will be forced to http unless they have USE_SSL=True If you would like to flip this and secure everything except only specific routes add USE_SSL_DEFAULT=True to your settings.
