Django 1.9: @csrf_exempt has absolutely no effect
in my views: from django.views.decorators.csrf import csrf_exempt @csrf_exempt def process_webhook(request): body_unicode = request.body.decode('utf-8') body = json.loads(body_unicode) print(body) in urls: url(r'^webhook/$', my_app.views.process_webhook), and yet when I: curl -X POST -d "fizz=buzz" http://localhost:8000 I get the CSRF error seen below. What am I doing wrong? Why isn't @csrf_exempt working?: . . . <p>You are seeing this message because this site requires a CSRF cookie when submitting forms.

Screen streaming between clients who are connected to a django server
I am working on a feature for a project that I'm not sure where to start. I have a django server running on a raspberry pi 3. I want one user (lecturer) to be able to connect to a server, click a screen cast button, and then anyone else (students) connected to the server can watch the screen live. Does anyone know of any free libraries/services that could help accomplish this? Ideally the users wouldn't have to install anything. -
Django 1.9 adding an html ID to errorlist
I'm using Django 1.9 and need to add an id to the html errorlist li. In Django, when an error is raised the HTML would look something like this (my rendered html): <div id="form"> <ul class="errorlist"> <li>Please enter xyz.</li> </ul> <p> <label for="id_xyz">X Y Z</label> <input class="form-control" id="id_xyz" name="xyz" placeholder="X Y Z" type="text"? </p> </div> I want to get this: <div id="form"> <ul class="errorlist"> <li id="testing">Please enter xyz.</li> </ul> <p> <label for="id_xyz">X Y Z</label> <input class="form-control" id="id_xyz" name="xyz" placeholder="X Y Z" type="text"? </p> </div> Here is my forms.py: class UserProfileForm(forms.ModelForm): company_name = forms.CharField(label="Company Name") def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(UserProfileForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.fields['company_name'].required = False self.fields['company_name'].widget.attrs = { 'class': 'form-control', 'placeholder': 'Company XYZ' } def clean_company_name(self): company_name = self.cleaned_data['company_name'] if not company_name: raise forms.ValidationError(u'Please enter your company name.') return company_name My endgoal is to use this jQuery: <script> $(document).ready(function() { $('#id_company_name')[0].placeholder = $("#testing")[0].textContent }); </script> It's a hack I know, but it's what I'm going for. Any ideas on how to create an HTML id for the li that parent is a ul class="errorlist"? -

Django single-test migration
I have recently implemented a reusable app within the django project I am working on. For the sake of the question, let's call it reusable_app. This app also has some unittests that run, however, these tests depend on some basic models declared somewhere next to the tests in a model.py. Now, the the models aren't loaded in the database unless I specify the folder in INSTALLED_APPS in the testing configuration file. I was wondering if there is another way to achieve this, not having to expose the app in the settings file? I seem to be able to specify the app via @override_settings, but the migrations are not ran. Am I missing something? -

Is it possible to have a class as your model field in Django?
I am currently trying to create a health network website in Django. The idea is that there will be a class called User inside my registration application. One of the states stored inside User is which hospital the user is registered into. I created another Hospital within the registration app. I want to user that model Hospital as one of the model field for the hospital_used state. How do I do that? Below is a portion of my UML that illustrates the relationship UML Diagram Below is a portion of my UML that illustrates the relationship png Here is the code I have for it so far. The code where it is encapsulated with an asterisk is what I need help with. class Hospital(models.Model): hospital_Name = models.CharField(max_length=150) def __str__(self): return "Hospital Name: " + str(self.hospital_Name) class User(models.Model): PATIENT = 'Pat' DOCTOR = 'Doc' NURSE = 'Nurse' ADMINISTRATOR = 'Admin' user_type_choice = { (PATIENT, 'Patient'), (DOCTOR, 'Doctor'), (NURSE, 'Nurse'), (ADMINISTRATOR, 'Administrator'), } name = models.CharField(max_length=50) dob = models.DateField(auto_now=False) username = models.CharField(max_length=50) *preferred_hospital = Hospital(models.CharField(max_length=50))* patient_type = models.CharField( max_length=5, choices=user_type_choice, ) Thank you StackOverflow Buddies -
DRF - Render Model Serializer to HTML Create Form
I am trying to render a form to create new objects. I have defined my API in a separate App and now I want to use it in another App of the same project. I followed the Tutorial and now I have a a Default Router, a ModelSerializer and a ModelViewSet and an automatically created browseable HTML API which also automatically renders a HTML form on the list page, to create new objects. I want to include this form now in my project. Of course I could write a form by myself and just use jQuery to make a POST request to the API but then I will have to create a form for every model manually. And if the model changes I will have to update the form. I was hoping to accomplish this using DRF and the documentation found here: http://www.django-rest-framework.org/topics/html-and-forms/ Sadly I have not found any example on the internet. I did find one Question on StackOverflow with the same problem but no solution. class TaskViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet): (in API/views.py) serializer_class = TaskSerializer permission_classes = (permissions.IsAuthenticated,) def get_queryset(self): return Question.objects.all().filter(owner=self.request.user.institute) def list(self, request): serializer = TaskSerializer(self.get_queryset(), many=True) return Response(serializer.data) def perform_create(self, serializer): serializer.save(owner=self.request.user.institute, created_by=self.request.user, modified_by=self.request.user) def perform_update(self, serializer): serializer.save(owner=self.request.user.institute, … -
Django - get() returned more than one it returned 700

How do I return a JsonResponse if the post data is bad in tastypie?
