class A Alias for Area class.

allow_empty A boolean specifying whether to display the page if no objects are available. If this is True and no objects are available, the view will display an empty page instead of raising a 404. This is identical to django.views.generic.list.MultipleObjectMixin.allow_empty, except for the default value, which is False.

class django.views.generic.detail.SingleObjectTemplateResponseMixin A mixin class that performs template-based response rendering for views that operate upon a single object instance. Requires that the view it is mixed with provides self.object, the object instance that the view is operating on. self.object will usually be, but is not required to be, an instance of a Django model. It may be None if the view is in the process of constructing a new instance. Extends TemplateResponseMixin Met

ugettext_noop(message) Marks strings for translation but doesn’t translate them now. This can be used to store strings in global variables that should stay in the base language (because they might be used externally) and will be translated later.

get_available_name(name, max_length=None) Returns a filename that is available in the storage mechanism, possibly taking the provided filename into account. The name argument passed to this method will have already cleaned to a filename valid for the storage system, according to the get_valid_name() method described above. The length of the filename will not exceed max_length, if provided. If a free unique filename cannot be found, a SuspiciousFileOperation exception is raised. If a file wit

FileField.storage A storage object, which handles the storage and retrieval of your files. See Managing files for details on how to provide this object. The default form widget for this field is a ClearableFileInput. Using a FileField or an ImageField (see below) in a model takes a few steps: In your settings file, you’ll need to define MEDIA_ROOT as the full path to a directory where you’d like Django to store uploaded files. (For performance, these files are not stored in the database.) De

max_x The value of the minimum Y coordinate.

create(**kwargs) A convenience method for creating an object and saving it all in one step. Thus: p = Person.objects.create(first_name="Bruce", last_name="Springsteen") and: p = Person(first_name="Bruce", last_name="Springsteen") p.save(force_insert=True) are equivalent. The force_insert parameter is documented elsewhere, but all it means is that a new object will always be created. Normally you won’t need to worry about this. However, if your model contains a manual primary key value that

class SafeBytes [source] A bytes subclass that has been specifically marked as “safe” (requires no further escaping) for HTML output purposes.

PostGIS adds geographic object support to PostgreSQL, turning it into a spatial database. GEOS, PROJ.4 and GDAL should be installed prior to building PostGIS. You might also need additional libraries, see PostGIS requirements. The psycopg2 module is required for use as the database adapter when using GeoDjango with PostGIS. On Debian/Ubuntu, you are advised to install the following packages: postgresql-x.x, postgresql-x.x-postgis, postgresql-server-dev-x.x, python-psycopg2 (x.x matching the Pos
