Exception when running under pydev debugger about django-seo HOT 7 CLOSED

This sounds like django_cms is doing some interesting black magic here. The two variables (self and options) are global variables when creating the models used to store metadata. Each model class creates a closure over these variables, so I have no idea why they would be appearing again.

I'll have a look at what django_cms is doing, I assume it takes over class creation, but I'll have another look. The developers were probably working on the assumption that django models haven't been created this way.

Are you able to send some more information (ie, your seo.py file)?

from django-seo.

Thanks for fast response.
I'll also make some investigation on django_cms magic in the morning and let you know if I'll find anything interesting.

My seo.py file is quite simple, here it goes:

from rollyourown import seo


class SEOMetadata(seo.Metadata):
    title       = seo.Tag(head=True, max_length=68)
    description = seo.MetaTag(max_length=155)
    keywords    = seo.KeywordTag()

    class Meta:
        use_cache = True
        backends = ('path', 'modelinstance', 'model', 'view')
        verbose_name = "Dane SEO"
        verbose_name_plural = "SEO"

It is also interesting why this happens only when I use debugger...

from django-seo.

That is a very simple file (note that backends is not required, the value you have used is the default), I have no idea what's going on. Perhaps someone is monkey patching or maybe there is something amis with the debugger.

Are you able to see the value of attrs when it reaches c:\python25\lib\site-packages\django_cms-2.1.0.rc1-py2.5.egg\publisher\base.py at line 50?

from django-seo.

I made further investigation and I disabled django-cms and suprisingly problem remains. Looks like django-cms is innocent in this case.

End of traceback without cms looks like this:

  File "build\bdist.win32\egg\rollyourown\seo\backends.py", line 161, in get_model
  File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\base.py", line 53, in     __new__
    new_class.add_to_class('_meta', Options(meta, **kwargs))

  raise TypeError("'class Meta' got invalid attribute(s): %s" % ','.join(meta_attrs.keys()))

Ok, I went and installed pydev --- not particularly enjoyable for a non IDE person such as me :-( and run it in debug. I noticed that it tried to launch psyco, which might be the actual cause of your problems.

Are you able to disable psyco? Is the exception gone?

from django-seo.

Thanks for checking it out.

I've managed to disable psyco but the problem remains.

As I'm still not able to reproduce this, I'll close this ticket. Let me know if it's a problem for you, there might be ways around it, but I'd rather use a class as a closure than artificially create it using type().
