In my recent project there was a lot of data business logic, so I had to organize this code somehow. In this article I'll describe a few hints on how to it.
Mixins
Simple business logic functions should in models or managers. When there's a lot of them, the can be split in mixins.
# logic.py
class EventLogic(object):
def start(self):
if self.condition():
# ...
# models.py
class Event(models.Model, EventLogic):
name = models.CharField()
# ...Custom exceptions
For business logic errors you should declare custom exception classes. It's not fun to understand what this specific IntegrityError means.
Generic views
When all logic is in model and can throw, say, BusinessLogicException, we can write views like this:
from django.contrib import messages
def event_action(requets, event_id, action):
# event = get_object_or_404(...)
try:
getattr(event, action)(request.user)
except BusinessLogicException, e:
messages.warning(request, e.message)
return redirect(request.POST.get('next') or event)Subscribe for the news and updates
In the previous article, we learned about test analysis for a product in general, and now we are ready to go further and look at test analysis for specific features.
Web development has undergone significant changes over the past five years due to a combination of technological advancements and changing user needs. Let's look at the drivers of these changes and the key technologies that have played a decisive role.
We often handling API server updates including backwards-incompatible changes when upgrading web applications. At the same time we update the client part, therefore, we did not experience any particular difficulties.
In this article we will tell you about the basics of working with GraphQL in Angular 2 environment with detailed example.
As you know, model managers can be overriden in Django. It's convenient to add custom filtration method.
For local project settings, I use old trick with settings_local file:try:from settings_local import \*except ImportError:passSo in settings_local.py we can override variables from settings.py. I didn't know how to supplement them. For example how to add line to INSTALLED_APPS without copying whole list.Yesterday I finally understood that I can import settings from settings_local:# settings_local.pyfrom settings import \*INSTALLED_APPS += (# ...)
