foo.bar.models is not supported in reverse url lookup (regexp needs to match ?P<app_label>[_-\w.]+) ) in urls.py

other problems from there. needs further investigation on the limitation.

Not really happy with our handling of mongoengine's responses on URL field failure.

Just cause we want to stay with the cool kids.

I would like to be able to upload an image on an ImageField. Currently a textbox just shows "<ImageGridFsProxy: None>". Ideally an thumbnail would be shown when an image exists.

If I have a Document similar to this:

class MyDocument(Document):
    name = fields.StringField()

The value of 'name' is changed to 'MyDocument' i.e. the name of the Document itself.

Right now they just work via template links. Unnacceptable!

They'll return HttpForbiddens when done.

When I do:

class FooAdmin(MongoAdmin):
        def has_view_permission(self, request):
                return request.user.is_authenticated and request.user.is_active

The "request.user.is_authenticated" is true. But the "request.user.is_active" is false, which prevents me from accessing the admin site.
Why my user is not active and how can I fix that, pydanny?
Thanks.

For Django 1.7, mongonaut works fine, however for 1.8.x it is not working specifically edit part. I noticed the dictionary field "_data" for the document only has key-value pair of "id" and all the other fields are missing.

In mongonaut_tags.py there are two similar lines:

(1) return mark_safe("""<a href="{0}">{1}</a>""".format(value, value))
(2) return mark_safe("""<a href="{0}">{1}</a>""".format(url, value.__unicode__()))

Is there a reason for using .__unicode__() in (2)? (It gives me me UnicodeEncodeError on a string that includes unicode characters. Removing .__unicode__() seems to help.)

Cheers

List of models show up find, but when I try to add an entry I get:

Error during template rendering

In template /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mongonaut/templates/mongonaut/document_list.html, error at line 48

Reverse for 'document_detail' with arguments '(u'mplayers', u'Player', u'DDDD7E9F-E2BD-59E9-AED7-476D45E147A8b.device')' and keyword arguments '{}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['padmin/(?P<app_label>[-\w]+)/(?P<document_name>[-\w]+)/(?P[\w]+)/$']

What could be the problem?

I'd expect it to hide the delete button but it didn't.
Is it supposed to work at this stage?

Or at least make them uneditable for now.

I have installed the latest version of Mongonaut with Django 1.8.2. While I am able to login and view the data from my Mongo DB, I get the following error whenever I try to Add or Edit any data:

TypeError: get_form() got an unexpected keyword argument 'form_class'

This is the traceback. Any help would be appreciated!

One of my collections has a couple of string fields along with a list field that contains a few thousand elements. When I open them for editing in mongonaut, it takes too long to load the list 2 -3 minutes when I don't even want to edit it.
Desirable features would be:

• ability to select the fields to be shown in the admin
• changing the widget used for showing a field in the admin

It is now install_requires=['mongoengine==0.5.2'], in setup.py.

Does it mean that mongonaut is incompatible with mongoengine 0.6.x versions?

If it does compatible it is better to address minimal required mongoengine version.

Now pip install mongonaut forces the last mongoengine version to be uninstalled and installs mongoengine 0.5.2.

Right now it sucks that you don't get notified on changes.

Example: Post.tags

# myapp/models.py
import mongoengine as me
class DemoModel(me.Document):
    title = me.StringField()

# Snippet1
# myapp/mongoadmin.py
from myapp import models as mm
class DemoModelAdmin(MongoAdmin):
    search_fields= ('title',)
    list_fields = ('title',)

mm.DemoModel.mongoadmin = DemoModelAdmin()

# Snippet2
# myapp/mongoadmin.py
from myapp.models import DemoModel
class DemoModelAdmin(MongoAdmin):
    search_fields= ('title',)
    list_fields = ('title',)

DemoModel.mongoadmin = DemoModelAdmin()

Snippet1 where I import the model specifically, the way it is shown in the documentation works flawlessly. However, if I want to use an alias for the model using the 'from x import y as z' feature, nothing shows up on the http://localhost:8000/mongonaut/ listing.

From the http://django-mongonaut.readthedocs.org/en/latest/future_usage.html file:

We should be able to add custom methods to a MongoAdmin that can do things to a document and gives a pretty button.

Simple index controls

• add
• delete

Compound index controls

• add
• delete

Simple Mongo search based off supplied fields.

Sorry I haven't written a patch and submitted for this, but I wanted to write it up. If you are not logged in and you try to access the admin list view for a particular document you get a page that has no style or javascript. I tracked this down to this line in get_context_data():

https://github.com/pydanny/django-mongonaut/blob/master/mongonaut/views.py#L117

Basically, I'm pretty sure that get_context_data() cannot return anything except a dictionary. Raising an HttpResponseForbidden isn't respected by the view and so you get the rendered page with no real context data. If you don't get to this I might later this week.

Thanks for this project, keep up the good work.

Hello.
It seems like a little bug: if my application app_name includes a dot, e.g. forum.mongo_forum then the default mongonaut's urlconf can not handle the url: it can not reverse for 'document_list' with keyword arguments like 'app_name': 'forum.mongo_forum'.
The mongo_forum application is installed right into my project and accessed with an project name prefix.

To fix that you can add dot-symbol to mongonaut's urlconf:
(?P<app_label>[.-\w]+)
for all of your url patterns (document{list, detail, detail_edit_form, detail_add_form}, etc).

Thanks.

I've created a custom MongoAdmin, and I need some of the fields to be pre-populated with values and read-only; however, setting this up in my custom MongoAdmin class does nothing. To be honest, either proper documentation or a code change to get this working would be excellent.

Need to be able to specify just date and have it add the rest or something.

Right now it's in the View.get_context_data() methods or other places and is a bit hairy. This ought to be done against the View.dispatch() method as that is the correct location. This includes:

• Determining self.app_label and self.document_name and self.document_type
• Checking if the requesting user has permission

It's weird because it doesn't always happen but sometimes I'll get an import error that says "cannot import name CompatibleStreamingHttpResponse"

It only happens when I have Django 1.5+ installed. I suspect it's caused by the different way that newer versions of Django handle URLS

Could anyone release full preconfigured django install with working admin panel and instructions how to loging.
http://127.0.0.1:8000/mongonaut/ - You do not have permissions to access this content.
Also http://127.0.0.1:8000/ - white page with title django-mongonaut Blog Example, no posts, but i have added posts from Robomongo.

• Defaults: unicode

Odds are they'll be ugly and uncomfortable. Time to fix them!

Hi,
I just saw this project and i am very excited about it. But i am unable to make it work until now.

Here is my pip freeze command output:

Django==1.6.2
pymongo==2.3
mongoengine==0.8.7
django-mongonaut==0.2.19

I think that everything is OK here.

I have a custom user model and here is my terminal output

>>> from project.profiles.models import *
>>> u = UserProfile.objects.get(email="[email protected]")
>>> u.is_authenticated()
True
>>> u.is_staff
True
>>> u.is_superuser
True

So my logged-in user has all necessary permissions (Regarding the documentation.)

My Model:

class FBUser(Document):
    app_id = StringField(required=False)
    facebook_id = StringField(required=True)
    facebook_ids = ListField(StringField())

    meta = {'collection': 'friends_of_friends_network'}

My admin file (appname/mongoadmin.py)

FBUser.mongoadmin = MongoAdmin()

When i type http://ubuntu.local:8000/mongonaut/
What i get is a 403 response:
You do not have permissions to access this content.

I read the documentation 5 times, checked the source but unable to find any clue. Do you have any ideas?

Thank you.

We've got 100,000 items in http://consumernotebook.com. We need pagination.

Example: Post.author

django-mongonaut should be on travis-ci and should have a working test harness so we can start writing tests. This will make it easier to maintain and allow us to quickly test against multiple versions of Python and Django.

Whoever gets this working will have my gratitude. I will shout your skills the heavens (or at least Twitter).

Due to a limitation in MongoEngine, User objects stored in MongoEngine don't have a user_permissions field, which makes it impossible to log into mongonaut when using MongoEngine's user model replacement:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'mongoengine.django.mongo_auth',
    ...
)

AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'mongo_auth.MongoUser'

Admittedly, this is a bug in MongoEngine, but it'd be awesome to see a workaround in the meantime in mongonaut to enable users to log in until this is fixed upstream.

A patch for this would consist of simply replacing the use of the permissions API with a check to user.is_staff and user.is_active.

Currently there are not much in the way of tests for this application. It would be good to create some unit tests to make sure functionality does not get broken with code updates.

Things I'd like to test:

• Posting to each type for Field (Happy Path)
• Posting blank and invalid data to each Field (Special cases)
• Results passed to context look like they should when using detail view

In order for this site to have ultimate usefulness it needs to have some auth around it, in order to use it in a production setting.

I recommend the following apps to achieve this:

• https://github.com/garrypolley/django_generic_permissions (for permissions)
• https://github.com/hmarr/mongoengine (for the user)
• https://github.com/omab/django-social-auth (for authentication)

As a note, I have this working right now locally with some hacky decorator injection.

Right now it's pulled off hosting sites. In some ways this is awesome in that we always run the latest/greatest, but in other ways it kind of sucks because it doesn't work if disconnected.

Any ideas anyone?

OK, this may sound noobish but I'm puzzled for two hours straight now, and kindly request help :)

/mongonaut/ url throws 403 accompanied with "You do not have permissions to access this content.". Yet I have no idea how to log in. Here are my files layouts:

# settings.py
from mongoengine import connect
connect('dbname')
DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.dummy'
    }
}

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
    'mongoengine.django.auth.MongoEngineBackend',
)
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'mongo_auth.MongoUser'
MONGOENGINE_USER_DOCUMENT = 'mongoengine.django.auth.User'
SESSION_ENGINE = 'mongoengine.django.sessions'
SESSION_SERIALIZER = 'mongoengine.django.sessions.BSONSerializer'

# Application definition

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'mongoengine.django.mongo_auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'mongonaut',
)

# my full urls.py
from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^mongonaut/', include('mongonaut.urls')),
)

I have nothing more, no mongoengine models yet, just want to log in for starters :]
manage.py createsuperuser works ok!

Thanks in advance.
