How to adapt a Django application to Django 1.6?

Question

Django

The question is, I started to study python + django 1.6
. I study using the example of creating a personal portfolio blog.
The question arose about the portfolio component itself, I found it on the net and forked this application to my github _ https://github.com/powellc/django-portfolio
But it was written a very long time ago and of course it throws errors.
I'll start in order, at first I swore at this:

from django.views.generic import date_based, list_detail

I found a kind of solution that you need to change the import to this: Then I started to swear at:
from django.views.generic.list import ListView

from tagging.fields import TagField и на import tagging

For the purposes of a simple test, I just commented out to start.
But later I got this error:

__init__() takes exactly 1 argument (5 given) вот тут views.py in project_list, line 13

The 13th line of the file itself looks like this:
**kwargs
I will give the views.py file itself:

from django.shortcuts import render_to_response, get_object_or_404
from django.template import RequestContext
from django.http import Http404
from django.views.generic import date_based, list_detail
from portfolio.models import Project, Medium
def project_list(request, page=0, **kwargs):
    return list_detail.object_list(
        request,
        queryset=Project.objects.public(),
        paginate_by=5,
        page=page,
        **kwargs
    )
project_list.__doc__ = list_detail.object_list.__doc__
def medium_list(request, **kwargs):
    return list_detail.object_list(
        request,
        queryset = Medium.objects.all(),
        **kwargs
    )

Well, the models.py file right away

from django.db import models
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _
from django.db.models import permalink
from tagging.fields import TagField
from portfolio.managers import PublicManager
import tagging
class Client(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=250)
    url = models.URLField(blank=True)
    
    class Meta:
        db_table = "clients"
        ordering = ['name']
        
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.name
    
class Medium(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=250)
    slug = models.SlugField()
    
    class Meta:
        db_table = "media"
        verbose_name_plural = "media"
        ordering = ['name']
    
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.name
        
    @permalink
    def get_absolute_url(self):
        return self.slug
    
class Project(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=250)
    slug = models.SlugField()
    project_url = models.URLField('Project URL')
    description = models.TextField(blank=True)
    client = models.ForeignKey(Client)
    media = models.ManyToManyField(Medium)
    disciplines = TagField()
    completion_date = models.DateField()
    in_development = models.BooleanField()
    is_public = models.BooleanField(default=True)
    overview_image = models.ImageField(upload_to="projects/overview/")
    detail_image = models.ImageField(upload_to="projects/detail/")
    objects         = PublicManager()
    
    class Meta:
        db_table = "projects"
        ordering = ['-completion_date']
        
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.name
    
    @permalink
    def get_absolute_url(self):
        return self.slug

The files brought the original state without my edits, help run the application.
Sorry if the question is not framed correctly.

Answer 1

Hmm, no traceback provided, but maybe you just forgot to install django-tagging which django-portfolio depends on.
In general, why don't you just look in the direction of fresher django batteries?
Here is a seemingly simple thing: https://github.com/dokterbob/django-portfolio
And this one is heavier: https://github.com/stefanfoulis/django-filer
But both seem to be maintained by the authors.

Answer 2

Have you read the upgrading instructions ?
