checking of correct installation and configuration of tastypie

[Tastypie]

hi,
i started learning Tsatypie so i follow the example in the
documentation but i got an error :
name 'EntryResource' is not defined
i just want to know if my installation is correct !!
is there any command to check the installation and configuration of
Tastypie ???
there is the example which i followed : 'the official documentation'
http://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorial.html#configuration

thanks for any help

[johnoc]

have you imported the EntryResource ?
take a look in urls.py and make sure something like this is there:

from myapp.api import EntryResource

where myapp is the name of you app.

hope that helps!

i fixed by changing myapp to the name of my application but i still have error
when i try to run server by this commend: python manage.py runserver
i got this error in the terminal:

python manage.py runserver

By the way i think that the error is about the timezone module !!
how can i check the installation of this module ??

2012/5/22, Belhouchet Ines <belhouc...@gmail.com>:

[johnoc]

yes its complaining about not having the tastypie timezone module.

go to your tastypie installation and then look under
<your tastypie installation>/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tastypie/utils

there should be a timezone.py in there.

if its not then you have an installation problem.

if it is there then you have a PYTHONPATH problem.

make sure your python path has an entry for tastypie:
ie. <your tastypie installation>/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tastypie/

hope that helps!

i checked under /usr/loca/lib/python.2.7/ and i didn't found any files
in site-packages directory.
but in dist-packages i found many folders and files about Django and
tastypie but still i don't found in
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/tastypie/utils the timezone.py
file!!!

should i download from "python-dateutil":
http://labix.org/python-dateutil the package adequat and extract it
in the utils directory or is there an other solution ????

2012/5/22, johnoc <joh...@gmail.com>:

[johnoc]

follow the installation instructions to the letter. that means yes you must install the dateutil.

then from the shell command line try the following:

> ./manage.py shell
>>> from tastypie.utils.timezone import now
>>>

if that comes back with no error then you are laughing.
otherwise i suspect your PYTHONPATH is borked.

I am having the same problem with Django 1.4, I installed dateutil before the instalation of tastypie, but the timezone still not gets installed.

Should I pull the bitbucket repository int he place of tastypie in dist-packages?
