<p>We love the Django community and to show our thanks, we’re throwing a private party Wednesday night for DjangoCon attendees. After dinner (9-11pm), come on down to</p><p>Ground Kontrol</p><p>, Portland’s favorite classic arcade. We’ll have an open bar (while …</p>
<p>Coverage.py</p><p>makes it easy to see how much of your code is covered by your test suite. It can be configured to spit out reports in</p><p>XML</p><p>(for consumption by a continuous integration server like Jenkins), in</p><p>HTML</p><p>(for human …</p>
<p>It is often handy to disable (either temporarily or permanently) South migrations for an app. “Disable” in this context means preventing an app’s migrations from being executed so that the app is managed via</p><p>syncdb</p><p>while in this state. A …</p>

<p>We’re looking for a Django developer to join</p><p>our team</p><p>. With the impending departure of</p><p>Armin Ronacher</p><p>to finish his degree, we’re going to be at least one developer short this Fall. We’re looking for somebody who can jump …</p>
<p>We love</p><p>pip</p><p>and</p><p>Fabric</p><p>for Django deployment. You can see</p><p>our boilerplate fabfile.py here</p><p>. Pip, however, isn’t safe to run in an automated fashion. If you attempt to switch branches or repos for one of your editable requirements, …</p>
<p>I really like</p><p>supervisord</p><p>for long-running process management. It is Python, so it is easy to install and it is easy to script with tools like</p><p>Fabric</p><p>. Lately I’ve been deploying smaller Django/WSGI sites with</p><p>Green Unicorn</p><p>behind Nginx …</p>
