Django: User Login only working with terminal created users
I'm only new to django & this is my first time posting on stack overflow so appologies if I havent done this right. My problem is that when I use my login function, it only seems to work with those created with the createsuperuser command in the terminal. Those created within the website just dont work. The users show within the admin panel and have a password within them. models.py class Trickster_User(AbstractBaseUser, PermissionsMixin): UserID = models.AutoField(primary_key=True) Email = models.EmailField(('Email Address'), unique=True) Username = models.CharField(('Username'),max_length=25, unique=True) FirstName = models.CharField(('First Name'),max_length=25) LastName = models.CharField(('Last Name'),max_length=25) is_staff = models.BooleanField(default=False) is_active = models.BooleanField(default=True) objects = CustomUserManager() USERNAME_FIELD = 'Email' REQUIRED_FIELDS = ['Username', 'FirstName', 'LastName'] def __str__(self): return self.FirstName + ' ' + self.LastName views.py def user_login(request): context = {} user = request.user if user.is_authenticated: return redirect('home') if request.method == "POST": form = UserAuthenticationForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): Email = request.POST['Email'] password = request.POST['password'] user = authenticate(Email=Email, password=password) if user is not None: login(request, user) return redirect('home') else: form = UserAuthenticationForm() context['user_login'] = form return render(request, 'authentication/login.html', context) forms.py class UserAuthenticationForm(forms.ModelForm): Email = forms.EmailField(widget=forms.EmailInput(attrs={'class':'form-control'})) password = forms.CharField(label='password', widget=forms.PasswordInput(attrs={'class':'form-control'})) class Meta: model = Trickster_User fields = ('Email', 'password') def clean(self): Email = self.cleaned_data['Email'] password = self.cleaned_data['password'] if not … -
How to update a field of Django Model Object whenever that particular object is fetched as a part of QuerySet from Database
I have a field called pending_since for a Ticket model. This contains the the difference between the date when the ticket is created ( created_on field ) and the current date. Now, when a single ticket is fetched, then I am able to update this field as below. views.py def pending_days_calculator(date1): current_date = timezone.now() diff = current_date - date1 diff_in_days = diff.total_seconds() / ( 60*60*24) pending_days = round(diff_in_days,2) return pending_days @login_required(login_url=settings.CUSTOM_LOGIN_URL) def ticket_detail(request, ticket_no): ticket = Ticket.objects.get(ticket_no=ticket_no) ticket.pending_since = pending_days_calculator(ticket.created_on) ticket.save() if request.method == 'POST': .....other logic here..... But, when a bunch of Ticket objects are fetched at a time as shown below, is there any way to update this field for each object, other than looping through the queryset. @login_required(login_url=settings.CUSTOM_LOGIN_URL) def common_pool(request): tickets = request.user.ticket_set.exclude(ticket_status='closed').order_by('sla') Ticket model has ForeignKey reference to user model GHDUser models.py for reference class Ticket(models.Model): ticket_no = models.CharField(max_length=10, blank=True) raised_by_user = models.ForeignKey(GHDUser, on_delete=models.CASCADE,related_name='raised_ticket', default=1) created_on = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now) pending_since = models.FloatField(default=0.0) -
Is there a way to exclude a Django model from Aldjemy model creation?
I have a Django model with a field that is a nested Postgres array class MyModel(models.Model): array_of_arrays = ArrayField( ArrayField( models.CharField(max_length=20), size=3, ), ) Aldjemy doesn't support nested arrays, and Aldjemy's array_type function is throwing RuntimeError("Unsupported array element type") for this field. I don't actually need a SQLAlchemy model for this Django model. Is there a way to exclude a Django model from the Aldjemy model generation process? -

Django Rest Framework trying to update or create a related model but need the related object
I have a profile model and a location can belong to a profile. But a person might not add the location when they create the profile so I would like to update or create the profile if it does not exist, when the user adds it later. I tried doing it through the profile serializer but there is no request data so I cannot create or update a location model object. So I presume I have to do it through the view and here it is: class UpdateProfileView(generics.UpdateAPIView): permission_classes = [permissions.IsAuthenticated] serializer_class = ProfileSerializer name = "update-profile" def get_queryset(self): id = self.kwargs["pk"] return Profile.objects.all().filter(id=id) def update(self, request, *args, **kwargs): street = request.data.get("street") user = User.objects.get(id=request.data.get("user")) city = City.objects.get(id=request.data.get("city")) additional = request.data.get("additional") zip_code = request.data.get("zip") name = user.profile.first_name + '\'s location' user_location = Location.objects.update_or_create(name=name, street=street, additional=additional, city=city, zip=zip_code, profile=?) My question is three fold: Is this the best way to update or create a model object for location? If I create the location this way will the profile still be updated as well or am I missing data I should add? How do I get the profile instance that is for a field (profile=?) I have to fill for location. I … -
Django - allauth: How to keep only the allauth login url

django view filter ManyToMany field to guard view
I have a tag model, with ManyToMany field "parents" to tag model, to itself. There is also "allowed_users" field. I need to guard a view in such a way, that the user won't see any tags in parents field, to which he is not allowed. I try to modify queryset, removing the corresponding tags from parents. But when I change the instance, tag_instance.parents.set(my_new_list) it gets saved automatically so I'm altering the database and changing the real value of the instance. So the general question is "how to guard my view in such a way, that object's ManyToMany field is filtered by custom logic". Another question is "how to set manytomany field without altering database", as this would be a solution to the former one. yes I use DRF -

Sending email feature not working when run using Docker. Showing Error : 530, b'5.7.0 Authentication Required. But runs perfectly without docker
I am making a Django App using GraphQl APIs in which I am trying to make an email sending feature for changing and sending user password if they forget while login. This feature is perfectly working when I am running it from my laptop's localhost:8000, but when I pushed it to dockerhub using github actions, and pulled it and tried to run, it didn't work.

SESSION_COOKIE_AGE vs set_expiry() in Django
I have noticed different behavior between SESSION_COOKIE_AGE and set_expiry method. Usually, I am using set_expiry on login as it changes according to the user whether he/she selects REMEMBER BE or not. I understand that if I set SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST to True, this means that the expiration date will be updated every time on user activity. However, I noticed that the expiration date of the session is updated on user activity without setting SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST (default: False) and without modifying the session. On the other side, it is not working that way if I set SESSION_COOKIE_AGE only without custom setting of set_expiry. From the documentation, it is mentioned that if we set value using set_expiry: the session will expire after that many seconds of inactivity Is that means INACTIVITY in accessing the application or inactivity in modifying the session? And set_expiry equals SESSION_COOKIE_AGE plus SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST=True? -

How to embed an XLSX local file into HTML page with Python and Django
For a Python web project (with Django) I developed a tool that generates an XLSX file. For questions of ergonomics and ease for users I would like to integrate this excel on my HTML page. So I first thought of converting the XLSX to an HTML array, with the xlsx2html python library. It works but since I can’t determine the desired size for my cells or trim the content during conversion, I end up with huge cells and tiny text.. I found an interesting way with the html tag associated with OneDrive to embed an excel window into a web page, but my file being in my code and not on Excel Online I cannot import it like that. Yet the display is perfect and I don’t need the user to interact with this table. I have searched a lot for other methods but apart from developing a function to browse my file and generate the script of the html table line by line, I have the feeling that I cannot simply use a method to convert or display it on my web page. I am not accustomed to this need and wonder if there would not be a cleaner … -
