Extensiones en el Explorador de Archivos

El Explorador de Archivos es el programa que te permite explorar los archivos que están almacenados en el disco duro de tu PC. Por defecto este programa esconde las extensiones de los archivos (el punto y las letras después del nombre del archivo). Por ejemplo, una foto puede tener el nombre "Mi foto", pero en realidad no estás viendo la extensión, que es "JPG". Así, si pudieras ver la extensión verías que el nombre real de la foto es "Mi foto.jpg". Distintos tipos de archivos tienen distintas extensiones, por ejemplo, los documentos de Word utilizan la extensión .docx, la música utiliza .mp3, los videos .mov, y así sucesivamente.

Sigue este tutorial para dejar de ocultar las extensiones en tu computadora Windows. Al final, tu explorador de archivos t

Loan calculator
def mortgage_calculator(form_data):
"""
Takes a single object `form_data` and returns all calculations in a `results` object.
Notes:
- The `Decimal` class simply takes any number or string and casts it into a decimal
value for calculations. See https://docs.python.org/2/library/decimal.html
- When you see '%.2f' that's simply forcing a value to be displayed with two
decimal places, i.e. 15.4504 comes out as 15.45.

Bringing websites back up after server migrations

Hello! I created a quick guide to fix websites after a migration. Depending on the application type, the steps will differ.

HOWTO: Deploy a Mezzanine site

[CASE 1] Deploying to a brand new server:

  1. Get your sever. Anything that grants you root access works. VPS's like those from Digital Ocean work great and are cheap.
  2. Fill the FABRIC dictionary in local_settings.py. For SSH_USER provide any username you want (not root), and the fabfile can create it for you.
  3. Run fab secure. You simply need to know the root password to your VPS. The new user will be created and you can SSH with that from now on (if needed).
  4. Run fab all. It will take a while, but after this your Mezzanine site will be live.

Notice that not even once you had to manually SSH into your VPS. Note: some server providers need you to login as root once to change the default password they give you. It should be the only time you are required to SSH into the sever.

[CASE 2] If you already have a server, and you already have created a non-root user with sudo privileges:
