Refactor the sidebar to use Django templates
With this change the html for the sidebar is no longer generated by
Melange, instead it's delegated to Django (which is what it does
best anyway). The downside is that it is no longer possible to have
arbitrary deeply nested menu's.
from django.conf import settings
from django.db import models
from django.db.models.fields import FieldDoesNotExist
class CurrentSiteManager(models.Manager):
"Use this to limit objects to those associated with the current site."
def __init__(self, field_name='site'):
super(CurrentSiteManager, self).__init__()
self.__field_name = field_name
self.__is_validated = False
def get_query_set(self):
if not self.__is_validated:
try:
self.model._meta.get_field(self.__field_name)
except FieldDoesNotExist:
raise ValueError, "%s couldn't find a field named %s in %s." % \
(self.__class__.__name__, self.__field_name, self.model._meta.object_name)
self.__is_validated = True
return super(CurrentSiteManager, self).get_query_set().filter(**{self.__field_name + '__id__exact': settings.SITE_ID})
