RPC4Django 0.1.4 is Available

Posted on by David

Go get it!

I attempted to reproduce the bug reported last week, but I was unsuccessful. A related bug seems to still be plaguing the Django project as well and is intermittent and difficult to reproduce. The bug is especially curious since the code used to parse the text into restructured text is very standard and used exactly as the docutils documentation describes. In the mean time, I’ve provided a workaround for those who are seeing this bug which will catch the docutils exception and simply display plain text instead of restructured text. I added a new BUGS.txt into the subversion tree to track this bug, which is the only known bug in RPC4Django.

Changes
  • Provided a workaround for the bug relating to Django Bug #6681.
  • Provided the settings.py option RPC4DJANGO_RESTRICT_REST which forces RPC4Django to not attempt to convert any of the method summary docstrings to restructured text.

Quick Blog Update

It has been a while since I had an update of much substance. Nobody seems to be interested in my brewing updates so I might just cut those out and stick with software development. I got a Palm Pre recently and there might be an update or two about developing for that. Otherwise, just stay tuned.

I added subversion access to the rpc4django repository:

Edit (March 31, 2010): The RPC4Django codebase has been moved to Launchpad.

I forgot to post about Tuesday’s brewing

Malt:
8.5 lbs standard liquid malt extract
1 lb 40L Crystal
0.5 lb Chocolate
0.5 lb Biscuit

Hops:
1 oz Challenger boiled for 60 minutes
1 oz Challenger at the last minute

Water:
1.5 gallons San Diego tap
3.5 gallons Ramona purified

Yeast:
11.5g Safale US-05 (hydrated)

I forgot to measure the gravity so this is going to be a mystery brew of sorts.

The pale ale turned out very good. I just bottled the IPA this morning. With a final gravity of 1.020 @ 76F, we are looking at 6.1% alcohol by volume. The IPA tasted very hoppy albeit uncarbonated. In 2 weeks, I’ll know for sure.

My biggest problem is that I’m bottling faster than I’m drinking — even with help.
