Customize the talk submission form

[anandology]

The talk submission form is at:

http://in.pycon.org/2012/funnel/pyconindia2012/new

• Section is empty. It should be removed.
• Session Type: We need only Talk and Tutorial. It might be a good idea to write a small description.
• Requirements: This should be removed.

@jace do you have any idea how to do this?

[jace]

Go to http://in.pycon.org/2012/funnel/pyconindia2012/newsection as an admin to add a new section. (To edit or delete a section, you have to change it in the db because I haven't coded the views and it hasn't been a pressing need since then.)

For other aspects of the form, including removing sections entirely, patch ProposalForm at https://github.com/ipss/funnel/blob/master/forms.py#L33.

Funnel is a very simple app and wasn't meant to be customizable per-instance, so forking the code is the recommended way to make changes. I'm not actively working on the code, and am instead putting my efforts into a modular framework that will re-implement all of Funnel's functionality.

i am stuck the app stopped working for me here is http://dpaste.org/kx8FJ/ the log , in the browser i get a message "Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data. "

[anandology]

Looks like you instance is using packages from global site-packages instead of virtualenv. I've added --no-site-packages option to virtualenv in the Makefile. Try running make venv and then make run. Let me know if that still fails.

[satyaakam]

did a clean clone now i get this error http://dpaste.org/yf0z3/

[jace]

Set the path. The funnel folder should be in PYTHONPATH or should be the current folder for website to be found.

[anandology]

@satyaakam Did you follow the instructions in the [Readme][https://github.com/ipss/pyconindia2012#readme]? Looks like you did get the submodules.

[anandology]

Did some customizations and pushed.

[satyaakam]

@anandology yes followed all the step still no luck http://dpaste.org/BRJRD/

There seems to be an error in installing baseframe.

Try running the following and see if you get any errors.

./bin/pip install -U git+git://github.com/hasgeek/baseframe.git#egg=baseframe

[anandology]

oh, that doesn't seems to be working. Try this instead:

./bin/pip install -U -r requirements.txt

[anandology]

Hmm, that will get latest versions of all packages. That doesn't work either.

try this:

cd /home/samarth/pyconindia2012/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/baseframe/ make tinymce

This is done when baseframe is installed. Looks like something went wrong when installing it.

[satyaakam]

@anandology hmm this was much better nailed it , curl was missing hence tinymce was not getting built , thanks

Make sure you run make copy before your do make run.

May be I should add a dependency.

[anandology]

Add the following to funnel.wsgi at the end and see what you get in the screen.

app.debug = True

Ah, I got the same error on my server. It is because auth.hasgeek.com SSL is not working with httplib2 in some networks.

I patched some code to fix it. Let me find out what it was.

Here is my funnel.wsgi with the patches.

import sys
import os.path
sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'funnel'))

import httplib2

# auth.hasgeek.com SSL validation is failing.
# Monkey-pack httplib2 to disable SSL validation
_Http = httplib2.Http
def Http(*a, **kw):
    kw.setdefault("disable_ssl_certificate_validation", True)
    return _Http(*a, **kw)
httplib2.Http = Http

from website import app

I should've committed these changes. Sorry for creating you trouble.

[satyaakam]
