Coltrane project from Bennett, J. (2008). Practical Django Projects (ExpertÕs Voice in Web Development) (1 edition.). Apress.

Some modification were necessary in order to make the project work with Django 1.6, and others were choice:

  • Prepopulated fields work differently. Implemented through admin.py and prepopulated_fields for each ModelAdmin.
  • Used django-ckeditor-updated instead of markup. I totally prefer a full WYSIWYG with HTML.
  • django-taggit to handle tags instead of what the book uses. Django-tagging seems to have died out.
  • Date-based generic views work differently in Django 1.6.
  • Changes to generic views imply changes to the decoupling urls section code.
  • models.permalink no longer good. Implemented django.core.urlresolvers.reverse instead as recommended by docs. -Still a problem with UTC time in the pub_date. Does not use local timezone for the URL.

Requirements: Django==1.6.1 django-ckeditor-updated==4.2.6 django-tagging==0.3.1 psycopg2==2.5.1 wsgiref==0.1.2
