Django return "internal" sign in form
I try to create my own session middleware and my uauth system using Django. I've got the following code: class CheckSessionsExistMiddleware: def __init__(self, get_response): self.get_response = get_response def __call__(self, request): ... response = self.get_response(request) ... response.status_code = 401 response.reason_phrase = 'Unauthorized' realm = 'some_app' response['WWW-Authenticate'] = f'Basic real={realm}' return response When i set to respone header 'WWW-Authenticate' the string that contains word 'Basic', django returns the following form and i do not understand why: Link to example of sign in form that django returns: https://psv4.userapi.com/c235131/u2000021998/docs/d23/bc9d828c3755/file.png?extra=0qo4COrPeQh3mwjuRs1WoYsB3GVW8WB-Xn01jjtQz7muPVFWRqKjsm0itRqJFhOqjoYoKQGpAqWbG4xNQlJD3_kcs1u0UNct_76s6b1jv0u9oW76cnH2bGBTWGd5hpSQY-OpgxtRj60rtUa0k8EX7ydRHQ Is there a way to disable this behavior? I expected that Django just return to client the header 'WWW-Authenticate' with value 'Basic realm=some_app' without sign in form. -
Extending django's core modules functionality
I want to add some little enhancement to one of the core Django modules. Can somebody guide me to some good resources as to how I can achieve that? A simple example of what I want to do is add an extra if-else condition. -
How do you incrementally add lexeme/s to an existing Django SearchVectorField document value through the ORM?
You can add to an existing Postgresql tsvector value using ||, for example: UPDATE acme_table SET _search = _search || to_tsvector('english', 'some new words to add to existing ones') WHERE id = 1234; Is there any way to access this functionality via the Django ORM? I.e. incrementally add to an existing SearchVectorField value rather than reconstruct from scratch? The issue I'm having is the SearchVectorField property returns the tsvector as a string. So when I use the | operator, eg: from django.contrib.postgres.search import SearchVector instance.my_tsvector_prop += SearchVector(["new", "words"], weight="A", config='english') I get the error: TypeError: SearchVector can only be combined with other SearchVector instances, got str. Because: type(instance.my_tsvector_prop) == str A fix to this open Django bug whereby a SearchVectorField property returns a SearchVector instance would probably enable this, if possible. This update will run asynchronously so performance is not too important. Another solution would be to run a raw SQL UPDATE, although I'd rather do it through the Django ORM if possible as our tsvector fields often reference values many joins away, so it'd be nice to find a sustainable solution. -
Django SQLAlchemy engine issue - data not transferred to db using Pandas
My use case is to take excel data and load it to database.. I am using SQLAlchemy (with Pandas df) to do that, but am not able to do..

how to integrate django web login with snowflake 'users' table
i have a django application that carries authentication by requesting a token through MSAL. once i have that token, i will check if that username exists the the local django sqlite db and if it exists, he will be logged into the website. if the username doesnt exist, then the username will be recorded in the sqlite db and the user just need to enter his credentials for authentication and will be logged in. what i would like to do is to replace the sqlite db with a snowflake table, which should only have a username and email column. how can i go about doing it? i am thinking that i need to write a customer user class and specifying the correct table in the class meta, switch the database in settings.py to the correct snowflake database. is there anything else needed? -

Why is my django function working when I test it in Postman but when I use my frontend its not?
I'm having an issue with creating a session in Django. The biggest issue is when debugging as the function works as expected when I run it in postman but not when I try to use my frontend which is built in React. I checked to make sure the data was being passed as expected and being received by the function in the backend and it is. But for some reason the session isn't working correctly. The code is outlined below. In the views.py of my login app, the session is created in this function to track the user_id so that I can update the MongoDB document later on. @api_view(['POST']) def create_login(request): # parse json body = json.loads(request.body) # get email and password and confirm password email = body.get('email') password = body.get('password') confirm_password = body.get('confirm_password') email_is_valid = False password_is_valid = False error = '' # password must be at least 8 characters and contain digit 0 - 9, Uppercase, Lowercase and Special # character from list (#?!@$%^&*-) password_validation_pattern = re.compile('^(?=.*?[A-Z])(?=.*?[a-z])(?=.*?[0-9])(?=.*?[#?!@$%^&*-]).{8,}$') # compare password to confirm password and regex pattern if password == confirm_password and re.match(password_validation_pattern, password): password_is_valid = True elif password == confirm_password: error = 'password is not valid.

Django logging does not work properly and logs are not saved to dedicated files
I'm trying to do logging in Django. I want the all_logs handler to write all logs to a common file. The error_file handler writes logs to the error file, warning_file to the warning file, and info_file to the informative message file.
