How to replace re "." in Django template url tag
I have Django url routes that looks like this: app_name = 'courses' urlpatterns = [ url(r'./(?P<courseid>[0-9]+)/$', views.viewcourse, name='view_course'), url(r'./(?P<courseid>[0-9]+)/review/$', views.reviewcourse, name='review_course') ] The "." in the regular expression will usually be replaced by a slug, e.g.: courses/computer-science/3/ Now I need a link in my 'view course' template to take the user to the review page, i.e: courses/computer-science/3/review/ I could do this by simply appending review to the current url: {{ request.path }}review However, I would rather do it the 'correct' way using a template url tag {% url 'courses:review_course' courseid=course.pk %} However, this produces: courses/30/review, which of course fails. Is it possible to generate the correct link using the {% url %} tag without having to change the "." into a name capture parameter? -
Django deployment on Heroku, upgrading to Cedar-14, Import Settings Error
ImportError: Could not import settings 'settings.prod' (Is it on sys.path? Is there an import error in the settings file?) I built this app back in 2013-2014, and it hasn't seen much maintenance since then. But there's a problem now, some AWS keys need to be changed, but I can't deploy the app. git push heroku master results in a failed build unless I do heroku config:set DISABLE_COLLECTSTATIC=0 So, I did that, knowing it would probably break the site, but it never even gets to that point, because then I find out I can't deploy until I upgrade to Cedar-14. Ok, so I do that, then push, and then I get ImportError on every dyno. app/web.1: ImportError: Could not import settings 'settings.prod' (Is it on sys.path? Is there an import error in the settings file?): cannot import name _uuid_generate_random app/celerybeat.1: ImportError: Could not import settings 'settings.prod' (Is it on sys.path?

FormFields for (Admin)Inlines || Can't import InlineModelAdmin
I want to catch up some extra information within my Django Admin through some extra Fields. I want to use inlines for that purpose. I have: class YourModelForm(forms.ModelForm): slot_count_request = forms.IntegerField(label='#-slot-size', initial=4 ) class Card_Group_proxy_inline(admin.TabularInline): model = SomeRandomModel form = YourModelForm This works fine for if I want to use a model within. I thought I can get rid of it, if I inherit from admin.InlineModelAdmin, but then I get an error: AttributeError: module 'django.contrib.admin' has no attribute 'InlineModelAdmin' -
Number of customers per week
In my django project, it is possible to show every customer in the application with CustomerProfile.objects.all() and find the creation date of a specific customer with In [12]: cust = CustomerProfile.objects.get(pk=100) In [13]: cust.user.date_joined Out[13]: datetime.datetime(2017, 7, 28, 14, 43, 51, 925548) In [14]: cust Out[14]: <CustomerProfile: Chantal Goyette's customer profile> According to the creation date, I would like to make a listing of how many customers has been created for each week. An example of the result could be ... week 28 : [ 09/07/2017 - 15/07/2017 ] - Count : 201 customers ... I probably need a range start_date and end_date where we will list that kind of information. start_date will be the date of the first customer created and the first week create would be the week of this first date. Obviously, the end_date is today and the last week est the week of this end_date. Sorry, I am a very new programmer in python/django. Could anyone have an idea how I could implement such information? -

Django rest_framework: child object count in serializer
I need to count the number of children an object has and return this value in my API via the object serializer. I also need to count a subset of these children objects. I have a Task object with children Asignees.

File Uploads in Django from urllib
I have small django app where you can upload PDF files. In the past only human beings used the web application. In the future a script should be able to upload files. Up to now we use ModelBackend for authentication (settings.AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS) Goal A script should be able to authenticate and upload files My current strategy I add a new user remote-system-foo and give him a password. Somehow log in to the django web application and then upload pdf files via a script. I would like to use the requests library for the http client script. Question How to login into the django web application? Is my current strategy the right one, or are there better strategies? -

Django 1.11: Dynamic Javascript to load Google Map markers
Currently I have a maps.js static file, which I load using: <script type="text/javascript" src="{% static 'scripts/maps.js' %}"></script> However, since maps.js is static, I can't load tags such as {{ model.location }} , {{ model.lat }} , {{ model.lng }} etc. I tried adding maps.js to my users app folder, as so: users/templates/users/maps.js And inside that js I loaded template tags defined above. In my views.py I did: def index(request): js_file = "users/templates/users/maps.js" return render(request, "users/template.html", context={"js_file": js_file }) #template.html <script scr="{{js_file}}"></script> However, I get the error that the file could not be found -

Django: Tuple choices with integers not working in template
I have a few choices like so in my Django models: lead = 'Lead' contact = 'Contact' CHOICES = ( (lead, 0), (contact, 1) ) When using an if statement to display an object property in the template then it doesn't work (however doesn't display any errors): {% if object.choice == 0 %} {{ object.choice }} # This doesn't display anything {% endif %} However, the following does work: {% if object.choice == 'Lead' %} {{ object.choice }} # This works {% endif %} Even when I switch the choices (like (lead, 'Lead')) then only the == 'Lead' works and not the == 0 Why does this not work with integers and only with strings? Thanks -
Django admin and a lot of foreign keys
Django==1.11.5 Could you help me with admin site. I have a lot of models related to each other as one-to-many: Frame | \Item | \ | \ | \ | \ | \Sheet | | \ItemFile |\Image | |\File | \Note Well, a frame contains many items etc. Let's illustrate just by these three models and their admin classes: models class Frame(models.Model): pass class Item(models.Model): frame = models.ForeignKey('frames.Frame', blank=False, null=False, on_delete=models.PROTECT, verbose_name=_("frame")) class Sheet(models.Model): item = models.ForeignKey(Item, on_delete=models.PROTECT, verbose_name=_("item")) admin class FrameAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): inlines = [ItemInline] class ItemInline(admin.StackedInline): inlines = [SheetInline] class SheetInline(admin.StackedInline): inlines = [ImageAdmin] The problem is that I fail to organize a minimally decent admin. These inline classes are not suitable. In admin if I edit a frame, items are shown. But sheets don't. If I organize sheets through admin.ModelAdmin, then I will have to constantly switch context: create a Frame, at its edit page create items. Then go admin home, create a sheet etc. What I would like to do. From a frame instance create an item, from item create sheet. And the values for their foreign keys should be input automatically. Is it possible to organize that smoothly? -
Expose port 8000 using docker and django
I'm trying to do a copy of my django image that I found here: https://hub.docker.com/r/library/django Well, at this point the image is working good, but I'm trying to generate a container from this one.

I'm not sure if the port is not open and using a bridge, but I get no reponse from this container. What I'm doing wrong? -

Using foreign key of the UserCreationForm model User
I have made a signup page using built in UserCreationForm of django. signup.html class UserCreationForm(UserCreationForm): email = EmailField(label=_("Email address"), required=True, help_text=_("Required.")) class Meta: model = User fields = ("username", "email", "password1", "password2") def save(self, commit=True): user = super(UserCreationForm, self).save(commit=False) user.email = self.cleaned_data["email"] if commit: user.save() return user But I also need to make other tables in models.py. So if in another table category I need to make a foreign key of the primary key of this built in User of UserCreationForm. What is the primary key in this? models.py class category(models.Model): uid=models.ForeignKey(#) cname=models.CharField(max_length=20) def __unicode__(self): return u"{} {}".format(self.uid, self.cname) class Meta: db_table="category" What do I write in place of # ?? -
Django REST returns 404 when URL param is changed
I'm using Django REST framework to create an API that supports JSON and CSV output. I have this line in my urls.py: url(r'^api/events/$', views.EventsView.as_view(), name='events'), EventsView looks like this: class EventsView(APIView): def dispatch(self, request, *args, **kwargs): return super(EventsView, self).dispatch(request, *args, **kwargs) def get(self, request): logger.info("Here") events = EventsQuery(request) if events.is_valid(): events.build_response() return events.get_response() If I visit /api/events/?format=json I get a set of results as valid JSON, and I see "Here" logged to my log file. If I visit /api/events/?format=csv I get a 404 response with a JSON body of { "detail": "Not found." } ...and nothing is logged. The lack of logging is what's throwing me. It's like it's not even getting to the EventsView class, but how could changing a querystring value in the URL stop it being routed to that class? And how do I find out where it IS being routed to? -

Django How to specify the upload to location for FileField from views.py
Say you have a modelform with a FileField: class Book(models.Model): book_title = models.CharField(max_length = 100, blank = False, null = False) book_teaser = models.FileField(blank = True, null = True) author = models.ForeignKey(related_name = 'books', blank = True, null = True) ... class Author(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, on_delete = models.CASCADE, null = True, blank = True) ... The Book model does not have a direct relationship with User model. If you want to upload the PDF files under: user/books/ # app_name is books How do you go about specifying the upload_to location in views.py. The docs show how to specify the upload location in the models.py using either a static address, which does not work for me, or a callable: def user_directory_path(instance, filename): # file will be uploaded to MEDIA_ROOT/user_<id>/<filename> return 'user_{0}/{1}'.format(instance.user.id, filename) class MyModel(models.Model): upload = models.FileField(upload_to=user_directory_path) But, unlike the docs' example, the model does not have direct foreign key in order to use instance.user.id So, how would you specify the upload location from views.py depending on what user is looking at the site? -
