Hello Django Developers,
A week after changing my approach, I have been able to make some
progress. Also this week, I am posting screencasts to showcase my
work.
This week I tackled both Value based and Range Based constraints.
The things left to do are :
-> Implementing 'like' and 'between' check conditions.
-> Deciding whether to support 'upper' and 'lower' functions(requires
me to study if all databases support it)
-> Implementing Datetime
-> Testing on Oracle and Firebird (Can someone who has oracle help
test the constraints?)
-> Write more apps to test functionality.
-> Catch Bugs.
-> Add i18n support.
-> PEP-8 Compliance.
Screencast 1 (http://thejaswi.puthraya.googlepages.com/
screencast_1.ogg) (9MB, 12 Minutes)
This screencast deals with downloading Django and Check
Constraints from the Subversion repository and applying the patches
downloade
d. It also deals with creating a model with the various checks.
Screencast 2 (http://thejaswi.puthraya.googlepages.com/
screencast_2.ogg) (6MB, 5 Minutes)
It deals with syncing the database and observing the output in
PgAdmin.
Screencast 3 (http://thejaswi.puthraya.googlepages.com/
screencast_3.ogg) (8MB, 7 Minutes)
Using the Django admin to add data and to verify if the checks
are working.
Screencast 4 (http://thejaswi.puthraya.googlepages.com/
screencast_4.ogg) (4MB, 4 Minutes)
This screencast gives an idea of the various exceptions raised
by the check constraints models. Also a weird bug (not sure if it is a
bug) at the end of the video.
These screencasts have been created by Istanbul (http://live.gnome.org/

Hope you folks will assist me in testing Django Check Constraints and
get issues to the fore, thus making Django Check Constraints usable
and useful.
Thanking You
