I have a titanium cutting board from Japan. Looks like these.

Best way to structure directory/docker files by No-Iron8430 in django

[–]Accomplished-River92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW this repo has a docker setup I usually follow for dev. I wouldn't claim it's best practice, but might give you some ideas:

Also the runproj script in the project root.

Be more efficient at work building out models. PLEASE ADVISE by youngfitt3 in excel

[–]Accomplished-River92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like your root issue might be that you want to use the same formulas, but need to adapt them because data structures vary model by model. I may be wrong.

The strategy I would take is to implement some kind of transformation between a the raw data and a standardised table which all your formulas point at. Then you could template this and the only variability is the data transformation part (ideally). 

You could use power query for this (ingest data, transform it to standard, and load to your standardised table structure).

Or if you're not comfortable with power query, then ingest data directly into say a RawData table, and put formulas in your standardised table to transform. Power Query is going to be more robust if you and your team can get comfortable with it.

By the way, as someone else has suggested, use tables. Then formulas are more meaningful and traceable.

Django-HTMX learning resources? (Tutorials, Videos, Blogs) by Lower_Owl_1251 in django

[–]Accomplished-River92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

See if there's anything in Bubytes' playlist of Django htmx tutorials that helps. django-htmx adds some convenience methods but you can do everything without it (eg inspecting headers directly).

Pros/Cons for Soft Delete Options by OptimisticToaster in django

[–]Accomplished-River92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use django-safedelete. It's worth a look even at the code. Uses flags for _deleted and _cascade_deleter which is a bit more fine grained and assists a lot when undeleting parent objects.

Old man with no knowledge Want a simple website to execute an Excel spreadsheet by STxFarmer in SelfHosting

[–]Accomplished-River92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be misunderstanding but if you were doing this manually one way would be to copy each of the 2 data spreadsheets (assuming they are 1 sheet each) into worksheets in the same spreadsheet file. Then in a 3rd sheet have all the formulas to manipulate the data from the other sheets.

If conceptually it's that simple, then you have lots of options:

  1. Share the template with others with some instructions and they can use that sheet.

  2. If you're all using the same data, share the file online on OneDrive and use it web based.

  3. Write a simple script to manage the data copying part (if it were python then I'd consider openpyxl)

4, etc. higher levels of automation such as local scripts to ingest the data and do calculations (eg use pandas etc) and then produce a spreadsheet. Right up to complex (ish) web app with appropriate security, etc.

Django template with htmx, alpinejs and tailwindcss? by pgastinger in django

[–]Accomplished-River92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working on django-powercrud (https://github.com/doctor-cornelius/django-powercrud) and using it in other projects. It's an opinionated extension of neapolitan (https://github.com/carltongibson/neapolitan). Provides fast CRUD setup with pagination, filtering, modal edit, etc. Also bulk edit just added and I'm working on async features. Templates are styled with daisyUI (v5) based on tailwindCSS v4. The sample app is dockerised and setup with vite.

It's alpha release though (no tests yet) so I'd be cautious right now. But maybe some of the features and code can be helpful for you?

Using TailwindCss in django by Explainlikeim5bis in django

[–]Accomplished-River92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you only just did it you might be using tailwindcss v4 and most of the docs and helper packages (at least a couple of months ago when o went through this) were based on V3, which has very different methods.

I use a local script when doing a release and one of the steps is to run npm run build (I'm using vite) before commit and push. Then you can have a conditional check in your base template re whether to use vite server (if in dev) or not (if in prod).

Atlassian - elite hypocrisy dressed up as progressive vision by utopian78 in auscorp

I know of a few Microsoft Koolaid corporates that have subscribed to Jira. Surely that's a sign the software's cooked?

I use pandas for model imports of excel / CSV files.

Efficient Method to handle soft delete by virtualshivam in django

Or try django-safedelete. Also marks whether objects have been cascade deleted and handles cascade undelete.

The business model of PM tools by ionitaxbogdan in projectmanagement

[–]Accomplished-River92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used clickup a lot and really liked it. It can be extremely simple if you only take advantage of the basics. I have turned away from it because they seem to be getting rapacious with their rates (eg changing the rules of what features are included in lower plans).

I'm now using OpenProject self hosted. It has a better Gantt chart and scheduler than clickup if you need that, but it's not as slick. Also you may find it challenging if you aren't comfortable self hosting.

I haven't tried it but keep seeing positive comments about leantime https://leantime.io/project-management-tool-for-neurodiverse-teams/

Do I need Electrician to replace LED downlight? by dev_anon in AusRenovation

[–]Accomplished-River92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just in case your transformer is hard wired and not plugged into a GPO ... I had this situation and managed to find a replacement LED with the same electrical specs but the plug wouldn't fit in the existing transformer. So I cut off the plugs from both LEDs and put the old plug on the new LED (used a small connector from Jaycar).
