Django Development Notes – 1
I was reading about this about setting up Jenkins with Rails for Continous Integration, and it crossed my mind, thing will be great if I set a Jenkins server to doing some automated task for a Django project. I proposed this to our solution architect, and he suggests me to try thing first, before make an adjustment to our current development workflow. And the journey began…
At the moment, I am developing a personal django web application, a project bug tracking software, specially tailored for my needs. It use PostgreSQL database, because I just hate SQLite and MySQL (no offense though). In python you use psycopg2 for connecting to PostgreSQL database.
I googled about django and Jenkins integration, and I found django-jenkins, and I found it is supposed to be easy. All you need is to install django-jenkins packages using pip
pip install django-jenkins
then add django_jenkins into your INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py file. Lastly, run the task for Jenkins, by issuing this command:
python manage.py jenkins
When I ran that command, I got this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

psycopg2.ProgrammingError: autocommit cannot be used inside a transactionWFT is this error? After doing some googling, I found that Django’s test suite is incompatible with psycopg2 newer than 2.4.1. This issues has been around about 9 months and still no fix from Django. The only fix I found is to install psycopg2 2.4.1 version. You can do that by doing this:
pip uninstall psycopg2 # answer by typing ‘y’
pip install psycopg2==2.4.1
