How filter manytoManyfield before pre choice

How i can calculate sum of n based on id?

Bookmarklets and Django authentication
I have developed 2 bookmarklets for accessing 2 different web services through a sort of "gateway" or "proxy". Since they are addressed to registered users of a learning platform based on Django, I try to limit the access to users that authenticated to said platform and click on the bookmarklets from a tab of the same browser window. In the first of the 2 bookmarklets, which sends a GET request, this trick works, while in the other one, which sends a POST request, it fails. Bookmarklet 1. (inspired from the xAPI Bookmarklet) In the simplest case the user, while navigating the web, wants to declare that it has seen (and found interesting) a web page. When s/he clicks on the bookmarklet button, the javascript code collects some info and sends it to a "view" of the Django platform as URL-encoded data inside the querystring of a GET HTTP request. Django verifies that the user is authenticated and sends an xAPI statement to an xAPI LRS (learning record store) of which it owns the credentials. Bookmarklet 2. The user, while navigating the web, wants to ask a specialized web application to perform some text analysis of the content of a web … -
New field in annotation destroys all field types django
I need to load all stats one by one for each user's account. I used annotate() to connect and calculate other related models fields, but one of the field, while added - destroys all types and multiplies integer by 10 somehow in previous fields in queryset. I have 3 models: AdvertisingAccount, Campaign, UserProfile. I've tried casting for all the fields, but it didn't changed the picture: I need integers to be integers, and decimals to be decimals with 2 decimal places (as set in models). expected: ads_direct 313 303 31.12 2165.18 but recieved: ads_direct 3443 3333 342.320000000000 8441.80000000000 code in views: (I need these fields be calculated) accounts = user.userprofile.advertising_accounts.annotate( clicks=Cast(Sum('campaigns__clicks', filter = Q(campaigns__userprofile = userprofile)), IntegerField()), views=Cast(Sum('campaigns__views', filter = Q(campaigns__userprofile = userprofile)),IntegerField()), ad_spent=Cast(Sum('campaigns__ad_spent', filter = Q(campaigns__userprofile = userprofile)),DecimalField(decimal_places=2)), money_left = Sum('budgetings__deposited', filter = Q(budgetings__userprofile = userprofile)) - (Sum('campaigns__ad_spent', filter = Q(campaigns__userprofile = userprofile))), ) Note If I comment out money_left, all annotations calculates and presents OK (except decimal place: it takes 12 places, instead of 2). I've tried this, but it didnt change situation: accounts = user.userprofile.advertising_accounts.annotate( clicks=Cast(Sum('campaigns__clicks', filter = Q(campaigns__userprofile = userprofile)), IntegerField()), views=Cast(Sum('campaigns__views', filter = Q(campaigns__userprofile = userprofile)),IntegerField()), ad_spent=Cast(Sum('campaigns__ad_spent', filter = Q(campaigns__userprofile = userprofile)),DecimalField(decimal_places=2)), money_left = Cast((Sum('budgetings__deposited', … -

Updating model on save vs count objects in the ListView - what's better performance-wise?
I'm creating a forum script. Currently I'm trying to optimize things and looking for answer from more experienced developers. For example - let's assume we are working on ListView of Category, which should list all threads within the same forum category. For every thread in category we are listing fields such as: Thread name Thread author Number of posts Number of views Last post details (a uthor, date) What is the best performance approach to calculate number of posts? Currently I'm thinking about 3 of them. Use annotate() on queryset add IntegerField posts_number to Thread model. Increment the value on save() in Post model and decrement on delete() Use memcache to cache read-only SQL queries and force cache refresh on every save() in Post model. I'm aware this is not an issue with low traffic forums, but I would love to know what's the best approach -

Is there any downside to Django proxy models?
I'm getting rather tired of paging through lots of irrelevant little fiddly properties while looking for the actual database structure of my models. Would it be a bad thing to use proxy models universally just to keep my code better organized / more readable? I.e. class Foo_Base( models.Model): title = models.CharField( ...) # other DB fields. As little as possible anything else. class Bar_Base( models.Model): foo = models.ForeignKey( Foo_Base, ... ) etc. not many more lines than there are columns in the DB tables. Then at the bottom or elsewhere, class Foo( Foo_Base): class Meta: proxy=True @property def some_pseudo_field(self): # compute something based on the DB fields in Foo_Base return result @property # etc. pages of etc. The fact that makemigrations and migrate tracks proxy models makes me slightly concerned, although this usage seems to be exactly what the Django documentation says they are for (wrapping extra functionality around the same database table). Or is there another way to organize my code that accomplishes the same (keeping fundamental stuff and fiddly little support bits apart). (About the only thing I dislike about Python, is that it does not have include functionality for reading in a heap of code from another …
