How to manually clear/update a cached view in django
My goal is to cache a view until an event occurs where the view's cache would need to expire, otherwise cache for 1 hour. This is what I have in urls.py url(r'^get_some_stuff/$', cache_page(60 * 60, key_prefix='get_some_stuff')(views.StuffView.as_view())), And this works fine. Now I'm trying to fetch the cached view to verify that there's something there and I tried this: from django.core.cache import cache cache.get('get_some_stuff') But this returns None. I was hoping to do something like this: from django.core.cache import cache #relevant event happened cache.delete('get_some_stuff') What's the right way to handle cache? -
How to apply windowing function before filter in Django
I have these models: class Customer(models.Model): .... class Job(models.Model): customer = models.ForeignKey('Customer') payment_status = models.ForeignKey('PaymentStatus') cleaner = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL,...) class PaymentStatus(models.Model): is_owing = models.NullBooleanField() I need to find out, for each job, how many total owed jobs the parent customer has, but only display those jobs belonging to the current user. The queryset should be something like this: user = self.request.user queryset = Job.objects.select_related('customer' ).filter(payment_status__is_owing=True).annotate( num_owings=RawSQL('count(jobs_job.id) over (partition by customer_id)', ()) ).filter(cleaner=user) I am using 'select_related' to display fields from the customer related to the job. Firstly I haven't found a way to do this without the windowing function/raw SQL. Secondly, regardless of where I place the .filter(window_cleaner=user) (before or afer the annotate()), the final result is always to exclude the jobs that do not belong to the current user in the total count. I need to exclude the jobs from displaying, but not from the count in the windowing function. I could do the whole thing as raw SQL, but I was hoping there was a nicer way of doing it in Django. Thanks! -
Adding Multi-tenancy to Django Viewflow App
I am creating a Django Viewflow application and I am trying to add multi-tenancy to it but I am not sure how to go about it. I am building the application on Django with MySQL (I cannot move from MySQL). The django-multitenant package provides a means to do this by using passing the tenant model to each of my custom models, i.e. class Products(TenantModel): .... Is there a way to configure Django Viewflow to do the same? Thanks for any help. -
Django: creating an empty file in views.py
I want to create a new file with the same name as the object I am creating. I want to create a new "structure object" with the name str in the database and at the same time a new file called str in the designated uploading folder.

Docker compose for production and development
So I use Python+Django (but it does not really matter for this question) When I write my code I simply run ./manage.py runserver which does the webserver, static files, automatic reload, etc. and and to put it on production I use series of commands like ./manage.py collectstatic ./manage.py migrate uwsgi --http 127.0.0.1:8000 -w wsgi --processes=4 also I have few other services like postgres, redis (which are common for both production and dev) So I'm trying to adapt here docker(+ -compose) and I cannot understand how to split prod/dev with it. basically in docker-compose.yml you define your services and images - but in my case image in production should run one CMD and in dev another.. what are the best practices to achieve that ? -
How to override Django Allauth password reset url
I am using an angular frontend with django-rest-auth. How do I override the password_reset_rul in the email message to an url of my choice ( the url to the frontend of the app). {% load i18n %}{% blocktrans with site_name=current_site.namesite_domain=current_site.domain %}Hello from {{ site_name }}! You're receiving this e-mail because you or someone else has requested a password for your user account at {{ site_domain }}. It can be safely ignored if you did not request a password reset.

This question seemed right but didn't work for me, I'm thinking there should be a cleaner way to do that. -

How can I edit the NGINX configuration on Google App Engine flexible environment?
How can I edit the Google App Engine NGINX configuration? There doesn't seem to be much support in the Google docs in regards to the NGINX configuration for apps running in the Google App Engine flexible environment. My app is running fine, but I get this 413 error when I try and upload an audio file (.wav or .mp3). 413 Request Entity Too Large -- nginx My app is running Django (python 3), with Cloud Postgres SQL and Cloud Storage enabled. I researched the error, and it seems I can set a nginx.config file so that it includes "client_max_body_size 80M" - but like I said, there is no documentation regarding how to manually config NGINX on deploy. Any suggestions? -
Using the URLconf defined in SchoolnSkill.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:

Django Request Object in middleware?

Django Template extensions

Length of Django queryset result changes when coerced to a list
I have a reasonably complex queryset thus, which rolls up data by isoweek: >>> MyThing.objects.all().count() 30000 >>> qs = MyThing.objects.all().order_by('date').annotate( dw=DateWeek('date'), # uses WEEK function dy=ExtractYear('date') ).values( 'dy','dw','group_id' ).annotate( sum_count=Sum('count') ).values_list('dw', 'dy', 'group_id', 'sum_count') >>> qs.count() 2000 So far so good. The problem is when I coerce this queryset into a list: >>> len(list(qs)) 30000 Why is this happening? How can I get the list of grouped values that the queryset purports to have when I count() it directly? -
Django Many-to-many limiting choices on a formset so forced removal of inactive?
The requirement is a many-to-many relationship between users and projects. Both User and Project model have an is_active attribute. There is an inline formset when editing the User and Project with an updateview. The many-to-many field is controlled through an intermediate table. On User model: projects = models.ManyToManyField( Project, through=ProjectMembership ) On Project model: users = models.ManyToManyField( settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, through='ProjectMembership' ) On ProjectMembership intermediate model I am setting the limit_choices_to: user = models.ForeignKey( settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete=models.PROTECT, limit_choices_to={'is_active': True}, ) project = models.ForeignKey( Project, on_delete=models.PROTECT, limit_choices_to={'is_active': True}, ) On the formset a user can only be assigned to a new project and the same the other way around. The problem comes in with existing project that were made inactive. So you can save active projects to a user: But when you change the is_active status of Stackoverflow Answering to False: And then when you try to save it forces you to delete the row: Ideally I want inactive project to be disabled or not visible at all. Which would mean overriding the get_initial_data or initial queryset. Also they wouldn't be validated with the clean method. How can I specifically fix this? -

django tastypie readonly based on group
I have read a lot of questions and answers on here, so I do question if what I'm trying to do is the wrong thing. I have a django app (1.8.1) I have had to take over as the creator has moved on and not left any documentation or comments in the code. In most respects it would probably be quicker for me to rewrite it in node as I don't have much experience with django. Current situation is: The way the app is currently configured that if you have been added to the app you are added to staff. This means anyone can change data on the app. (front end not admin page) I need to change this so only a group of people can make data changes(via front end) but those added to a different group can only get/see data in the front end form. From what I have seen the API are being done through tastypie(0.13.3). I would have assumed django had a view/readonly/get class but it looks like I have to create it. My question is am I better off doing this in tastypie or django? What is the simplest way to do it? Or is … -

django - filtering objects across multiple templates?
I'm trying to filter objects across two templates. One (the parent) should display the five most recently updated, and the other should display them all. I have the latter working perfectly with the following code: Views.py: ... class ChannelProjectList(generic.ListView): context_object_name = 'projects_by_channel' template_name = 'channels/projects_by_channel.html' def get_queryset(self): self.channel = get_object_or_404(Channel, slug=self.kwargs['slug']) return Project.objects.filter(channel=self.channel) ... HTML: {% for project in projects_by_channel %} {{project.name}} {% endfor %} but when I go to "include" it on the parent page it breaks. After some research I understand why that is happening and why that isnt the proper way to do it. I dug around and found this, which seems to be exactly what I'm trying to do but when I implemented it, not only did it not work it but also broke the page that is working. This feels like a pretty simple thing, but where its my first project I'm running into new things every day and this is one of them. -
