Views

CanViewMixin

Bases: GenericContentPermissionMixinBuilder

Ensure the user has permission to view this view's object.

Raises:

Type	Description
PermissionDenied	if the user cannot edit this view's object.

FormerSubscriberMixin

Bases: AccessMixin

Check if the user was at least an old subscriber.

Raises:

Type	Description
PermissionDenied	if the user never subscribed.

User

Bases: AbstractUser

Defines the base user class, useable in every app.

This is almost the same as the auth module AbstractUser since it inherits from it, but some fields are required, and the username is generated automatically with the name of the user (see generate_username()).

Added field: nick_name, date_of_birth Required fields: email, first_name, last_name, date_of_birth

is_in_group(*, pk=None, name=None)

Check if this user is in the given group. Either a group id or a group name must be provided. If both are passed, only the id will be considered.

The group will be fetched using the given parameter. If no group is found, return False. If a group is found, check if this user is in the latter.

Returns:

Type	Description
bool	True if the user is the group, else False

UserTabsMixin

Bases: TabedViewMixin

Galaxy

Bases: Model

The Galaxy, a graph linking the active users between each others.

The distance between two users is given by a relation score which takes into account a few parameter like the number of pictures they are both tagged on, the time during which they were in the same clubs and whether they are in the same family.

The citizens of the Galaxy are represented by :class:GalaxyStar and their relations by :class:GalaxyLane.

Several galaxies can coexist. In this case, only the most recent active one shall usually be taken into account. This is useful to keep the current galaxy while generating a new one and swapping them only at the very end.

Please take into account that generating the galaxy is a very expensive operation. For this reason, try not to call the :meth:rule method more than once a day in production.

To quickly access to the state of a galaxy, use the :attr:state attribute.

compute_individual_scores() classmethod

Compute an individual score for each citizen.

It will later be used by the graph algorithm to push higher scores towards the center of the galaxy.

rule(picture_count_threshold=DEFAULT_PICTURE_COUNT_THRESHOLD)

Main function of the Galaxy.

Iterate over all the rulable users to promote them to citizens. A citizen is a user who has a corresponding star in the Galaxy. Also build up the lanes, which are the links between the different citizen.

Users who can be ruled are defined with the picture_count_threshold: all users who are identified in a strictly lower number of pictures won't be promoted to citizens. This does very effectively limit the quantity of computing to do and only includes users who have had a minimum of activity.

This method still remains very expensive, so think thoroughly before you call it, especially in production.

GalaxyLane

Bases: Model

Define a lane (edge -> link between galaxy citizen) in the galaxy map.

Store a reference to both its ends and the distance it covers. Score details between citizen owning the stars is also stored here.
