Django view to display objects by user to visitor
I created an app that allows registered users to create products using a form. Each registered user has a profile page displaying their products, that only they can see when logged in. I want to create a view that will allow an unregistered user to view products by any user by click on a username. How do I do that? -

jsonschema library -- schema is not valid?
I am using the jsonschema library (http://python-jsonschema.readthedocs.io/en/latest/validate/) in my Django application for server-side validation and am trying to do server-side validation of JSON with a provided schema. However, I get the error that the schema "is not valid under any of the given schemas."

django serializer split string and save to model
I have model structured like this - class BadKeywords(models.Model): bad_keyword = models.CharField(max_length=200) class Meta: db_table = "bad_keywords" if the method is post I get the string containing commas for eg.- hello, hi, hey. Now I want to split that string with the comma and save an individual item to model using serializer. -
Django Rest Framework foreign key nesting
I am trying to nest my Users table inside my Relationships table. So instead of this: [ { "user": 1, "related_user": 2, "relationship": "followed_by" } ] I am trying to get this: [ { "user": { "username": "user1", "name": "User 1", "email": "bla", "phone": "bla", "date_joined": "2017-11-01T21:34:13.101256Z" }, "related_user": { "username": "user2", "name": "User 2", "email": "bla", "phone": "bla", "date_joined": "2017-11-01T21:34:13.101256Z" }, "relationship": "followed_by" } ] I looked up tutorials and I tried adding serializers.RelatedField , UserSerializer(many=true, read-only=true) etc. but nothing worked Models.py class User(models.Model): username = models.CharField(max_length=255) name = models.CharField(max_length=255) email = models.CharField(max_length=255) phone = models.CharField(max_length=255) date_joined = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, blank=True) def __str__(self): return str(self.pk) + ", " + self.username RELATIONSHIP_CHOICE = [ ("follows", "follows"), ("followed_by", "followed_by"), ("none", "none"), ] class Relationship(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name="primary_user", null=True) related_user = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name="related_user", null=True) relationship = models.CharField(max_length=40, choices=RELATIONSHIP_CHOICE, default=RELATIONSHIP_CHOICE[0]) Serializers.py from rest_framework import serializers from . import models class UserSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = models.User fields = ( 'username', 'name', 'email', 'phone', 'date_joined', ) class RelationshipSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): related_user = UserSerializer(many=True) class Meta: model = models.Relationship fields = ( 'user', 'related_user', 'relationship', 'related_user' ) I tried to add related user to my serializer but it didnt work.

Is it accurate to say that Python/Django is more explicit than Ruby/Rails in how the components are constructed and connected together?
I've learned quite a bit with Ruby/Rails and am now venturing into learning Python/Django. What I've noticed so far is that I see the connections more clearly with Django than I did with Rails. In Rails, that magic that it has under the hood seems awesome, stuff just works....but I don't know exactly how. With Django, I have to be much more verbose but in having to write things out, I feel I understand the structure and concepts better. I haven't gone deep into Django just yet, so maybe I will hit the same roadblocks with it in the future. -
javascript loop over .onclick and query
So this results in the last element having the onclick function. Nothing else works. I tried to follow previous answers by wrapping i in () but that didn't seem to do anything... function waitForLoad(id, callback){ var timer = setInterval(function(){ if(document.getElementById(id)){ clearInterval(timer); callback(); } }, 100); } // to skip the LocationSet and LocationName, because we want to reuse our old Location ref = new Firebase("https://iplus1app.firebaseio.com/"); userLocs = ref.child("users/{{ user.username }}/locations"); // create the button function to redirect for each Location that exists userLocs.once("value", function(snapshot) { var keys = Object.keys(snapshot.val()) for (i = 0; i < snapshot.numChildren(); i++) { var locationKey = keys[i] //var locationKey = Object.keys(snapshot.val()[keys[i]]) var nickName = snapshot.val()[locationKey]['name'] locLat = snapshot.val()[locationKey]['position']['lat'] locLng = snapshot.val()[locationKey]['position']['lng'] locNick = snapshot.val()[locationKey]['name'] waitForLoad(nickName, function(){ document.getElementById(nickName).onclick = (function(i) { return function (i) { tempRef = ref.child("users/{{ user.username }}/temp_location"); tempRef.set( { position: { lat: locLat, lng: locLng }, name: locNick }) location.href = "{% url 'tutorLocationActivities' %}"; } })(i); }); } }) -
AttributeError: module Django.contrib.auth.views has no attribute
In my Django app useraccounts, I created a Sign-Up form and a model for my Sign-up. However, when I went to run python manage.py makemigrations, I encounter the error: AttributeError: module Django.contrib.auth.views has no attribute 'registration'. Secondly, am I coding the SignUpForm in forms.py correctly? I did not want to use the User model in models because it would request username and I didn't want my website to ask for a username. Here is my code: models.py from django.db import models from django.db.models.signals import post_save from django.dispatch import receiver from django.contrib.auth.models import User class UserProfile(models.Model): first_name = models.CharField(max_length=150) last_name = models.CharField(max_length=150) email = models.EmailField(max_length=150) birth_date = models.DateField() password = models.CharField(max_length=150) @receiver(post_save, sender=User) def update_user_profile(sender, instance, created, **kwargs): if created: UserProfile.objects.create(user=instance) instance.profile.save() forms.py from django.forms import forms from django.contrib.auth.models import User from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm from useraccounts.models import UserProfile class SignUpForm(UserCreationForm): class Meta: model = User fields = ('first_name', 'last_name', 'email', 'password1', 'password2', ) views.py from django.shortcuts import render, redirect from django.contrib.auth import login, authenticate from useraccounts.forms import SignUpForm # Create your views here. def home(request): return render(request, 'useraccounts/home.html') def login(request): return render(request, 'useraccounts/login.html') def registration(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = SignUpForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): user = form.save() user.refresh_from_db() user.profile.birth_date = … -
Django. Access primary key/id value during creation of a record
For my model I use default auto-incremented PrimaryKey/id field. I also have a field called serialNumber which according to design should reference id and generate it's own value based on id value. For example if id is 1234 then serialNumber field should be a string '00001234'. class MyModel(models.Model): ... serialNumber = models.TextField(max_length=8) ... I have no trouble updating serialNumber after the creation of record in DB, but my specific case requires serialNumber to be set together with object initial creation because right after it I return the record via REST API. I tried using signals, but pre_save returns None @receiver(pre_save, sender=MyModel) def my_pre_save(sender, instance, **kwargs): print(instance.id) On the other hand if I do: @receiver(post_save, sender=MyModel) def my_post_save(sender, instance, **kwargs): print(instance.id) I receive the value for id but it's too late because right after .save() my REST API returns response with created object and I don't want to add code that manages serialNumber to serializer. Overriding .save() method for MyModel didn't work either: def save(self, *args, **kwargs): print(self.id) super(MyModel, self).save(*args, **kwargs) Id field still returns None. Anyone has an idea how to access id value during initial creation of a record? -
Using a django model as a field for another model?
I have been tasked with creating Django Models for a hypothetical apartment booking application. My question is: can I use a model that I've defined, as a field in another model? For example, I will have one model called "Listing" that represents an apartment being listed. class Listing(models.Model): address = models.IntegerField() owner = models.CharField(max_length=256) duration = models.DurationField() price= models.IntegerField() I also want to have a "Booking" model that represents an apartment once someone has booked it. It will have the exact same info as a Listing, with the addition of the username of the person who booked it. So can I have my Booking model use Listing as a field? And then just have one extra field for the booker's username. Any other tips/critiques are highly appreciated as I am a complete beginner at Django. -
Django migrations without db table rewrites
I have a huge table and I don't want to cause a table rewrite or so. so in my model I first created a field like this: field = models.IntegerField(null=True) then executed makemigrations, then changed my field to field = models.IntegerField(null=False, default=0) executed makemigrations again and second migration looks like this: migrations.AlterField( model_name='game', name='field', field=models.IntegerField(default=0), ), Would this cause a table rewrite? I know I will still have Null values in the previous rows but I want to make this work for the next rows without causing DB downtime. My db is PostgreSQL. and first migration looks like this, if helpful: migrations.AddField( model_name='game', name='field', field=models.IntegerField(null=True), ), -
django OnetoOneField in database
how one-to-one field in django reflected in database? I have two model: Neighbor and Neighbor_Info which has one-to-one field connection to Neighbor.

Overwrite django view with custom context (Django 1.11, Viewflow)
I have a Django 1.11 project using Viewflow - https://github.com/viewflow/viewflow - that I've incorporated. It's been very helpful, but a lot of stuff is kind of "magic", and being my first serious Django project, I'm running into an issue I'm not sure of how to solve, or the best way. I have a generic template that expects a lot of context. I have a function that adds this context to all of my views: def add_general_context(context, MOC, MOC_enabled_fields = (), MOC_status = None): context['MOC'] = MOC context['current_date'] = timezone.now().strftime("%D") context['MOC_form'] = forms.MOCForm(prefix="MOC_form", MOC_enabled_fields=MOC_enabled_fields, instance=MOC) context['MOCAttachments'] = models.MOCAttachment.objects.filter(MOC=MOC) context['MOCAttachment_form'] = forms.MOCAttachmentForm(prefix="MOCAttachment_form") context['MOCApprovals'] = models.MOCApproval.objects.filter(MOC=MOC) context['MOCTasks'] = models.MOCTask.objects.filter(MOC=MOC) context['MOC_status'] = MOC_status context['MOCConversation'] = models.MOCConversation.objects.filter(MOC=MOC) # Add comments to the conversation for conversation in context['MOCConversation']: conversation.comments = models.MOCComment.objects.filter(conversation=conversation) context['MOCComment_form'] = forms.MOCCommentForm(MOC=MOC) context['MOCCommentReply_form'] = forms.MOCCommentReplyForm() I basically need to add this context to a view that is inside viewflow - namely, AssignTaskView - https://github.com/viewflow/viewflow/blob/f50accb3cde5d53f1d4db0debf5936867712c3bd/viewflow/flow/views/task.py#L109 I've tried a few things to overwrite/add to the context, but none seem to work. Attempt 1: Overwrite the URL and use extra_context (SO suggested this) - The issue is that the urls are "magic", my urlpatterns is very simply: from material.frontend import urls as frontend_urls urlpatterns = [ url(r'^MOC/', … -
Render Url dynamically in ReactJS depending on the environment
I am using ReactJS in the front end wherein upon clicking a submit button, it calls 4 apis in dev-environment: ReactDOM.render( <ParameterForm url_schema="http://192.168.99.100/api/v1/var" url_uischema="http://192.168.99.100/api/v1/ui" url_data="http://192.168.99.100/api/v1/data" url_submit="http://192.168.99.100/api/v1/calculated" />, document.getElementById('form') ); I am using docker to run the application locally which has a settings folder with base.py, local.py and production.py.

Issue deploying django to AWS
I'm trying to deploy my personal website to aws using elastic beanstalk. My website is in django/python. I keep encountering the same issue. Each time I upload the files I get the following error in AWS console: Your requirements.txt is invalid. Snapshot your logs for details.

python code optimization: creating dynamic variables in a loop inside a class for django / wagtail
I am trying to optimize internationalization for my django (wagtail) site. I have a model which creates fields for the CMS that allow translation to different language: from internationalization.translatedfield import TranslatedField class BlogPage(Page): body_en = RichTextField(blank=True) body_fr = RichTextField(blank=True) body = TranslatedField( 'body_en', 'body_fr' ) content_panels = Page.content_panels + [ FieldPanel('body_en', classname="full"), FieldPanel('body_fr', classname="full"), ] The translatedfield import just allows us to use a single variable name in our django template ('body'): from django.utils import translation class TranslatedField(object): def __init__(self, en_field, fr_field): self.en_field = en_field self.fr_field = fr_field def __get__(self, instance, owner): if translation.get_language() == 'fr': return getattr(instance, self.fr_field) else: return getattr(instance, self.en_field) And in the template: {{ page.body|richtext }} All this allows the CMS user to input text for 'body_fr' and 'body_en' fields, and, based on the URL the visitor was at, output either the french or english translations (e.g. site.com/en/blog or site.com/fr/blog). The problem is there could be potentially dozens of languages and dozens of fields, so you can see how this model could get very large. So what I'd like to do is dynamically create those self.en_fields and .fr fields in a loop. So the TranslatedField import might look something like: class TranslatedField(object): def __init__(self, field, languages): … -
