Calling ogrinspect() without an explicit srid and with a data source that does not have a spatial reference system defined causes an AttributeError exception.
If the srid is explicitly given, no error occurs. However, since the code gives srid_str a value if srid is None, I'm assuming that an AttributeError should be caught and the srid_str given the same value as if srid were None.
I think this is may be similar to a previous issue I asked about on the django-user mailing list:
http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/82f7c9b286285ea8/7188dc71222bc80b
which jbronn fixed in [6916].
The following IPython session, which is also pasted at http://dpaste.com/hold/28583/, is using the shapefile from http://www.census.gov/geo/cob/bdy/st/st00shp/st99_d00_shp.zip. Note that [2] works with an explicit srid, while [3] fails:
In [1]: from django.contrib.gis.utils.ogrinspect import *
In [2]: print ogrinspect('st99_d00.shp', 'State', srid='-1')
# This is an auto-generated Django model module created by ogrinspect.
from django.contrib.gis.db import models
class State(models.Model):
area = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20, decimal_places=5)
perimeter = models.DecimalField(max_digits=20, decimal_places=5)
st99_d00_field = models.IntegerField()
st99_d00_i = models.IntegerField()
state = models.CharField(max_length=2)
name = models.CharField(max_length=90)
lsad = models.CharField(max_length=2)
region = models.CharField(max_length=1)
division = models.CharField(max_length=1)
lsad_trans = models.CharField(max_length=50)
geom = models.PolygonField(srid=-1)
objects = models.GeoManager()
In [3]: ogrinspect('st99_d00.shp', 'State')
