mod_wsgi runtime using old python version
I'm running a django server on httpd service. I had to upgrade my python version(2.7.12). After installing the new python I rebuild the mod_wsgi with the new python (using with-python argument). I also rebuild the mod_python with the new python version. My new python path is /usr/local/bin/python2.7. In the /etc/httpd/conf.d/django.conf I added the following line : WSGIPythonHome /usr/local. However I see this error in my error_log file (httpd error log): [Tue Sep 20 12:32:12.743338 2016] [:warn] [pid 8567:tid 139972130834496] mod_wsgi: Compiled for Python/2.7.12. [Tue Sep 20 12:32:12.743376 2016] [:warn] [pid 8567:tid 139972130834496] mod_wsgi: Runtime using Python/2.7.5. What i'm missing ? FYI : I cannot change or redirect the default python that exists in /usr/bin/python because this affect centos package management. -
Django sometimes leaks %20 instead of space
I am totally confused as to what is going on here. I am sending a string containing spaces to my Django app using the url. When I testrun locally using the development server I get the string encoded using " " and everything is fine. Later on my deployed server using nginx I get "%20" in the string instead of " ". I don't even know where to start debugging this. I thought such translations were made by Django and hence the behaviour would be the same. I am totally new at all this web stuff so I don't know where to start looking for a solution. Can someone perhaps point me in the right direction? -
Getting JSON data as QueryDict
I am using Django REST Framework and have this code to do a PUT call: $.ajax({ url: '/api/v1/order/'+orderid+'/', type: 'PUT', data: { book: true } }); and this is the view that handles that: @api_view(['PUT', 'POST']) @authentication_classes((SessionAuthentication, TokenAuthentication, BasicAuthentication)) @permission_classes((IsAuthenticated,)) def api_orderbook(request, orderid): logger.debug(request.data) if request.method == 'PUT' and request.data.get("book") == True: ... do stuff ... But, the request.data.get("book") is not a boolean, but a string: <QueryDict: {u'book': [u'true']}> When I use JSON.stringify({ book: true }) in my Ajax call, it is even worse: <QueryDict: {u'{"book":true}': [u'']}> How can I get the Javascript object as a correct Python QueryDict in my code? -
Django detecting not needed changes
django 1.10, py 3.5 Here's my Enum-like class: @deconstructible class EnumType(object): @classmethod def choices(cls): attrs = [i for i in cls.__dict__.keys() if i[:1] != '_' and i.isupper()] return tuple((cls.__dict__[attr], cls.__dict__[attr]) for attr in attrs) def __eq__(self, other): return self.choices() == other.choices() Here's an example of the class: class TransmissionType(EnumType): TRANSMISSION_PROGRAM = 'TRANSMISSION_PROGRAM' INFO_PROGRAM = 'INFO_PROGRAM' SPORT_PROGRAM = 'SPORT_PROGRAM' Here's how i use it on a model: type = models.TextField(choices=TransmissionType.choices(), db_index=True, default=None) I think I made everything right according to the current django deconstruct docs but apparently makemigration script still creates everytime migration like this: operations = [ migrations.AlterField( model_name='transmission', name='type', field=models.TextField(choices=[('TRANSMISSION_PROGRAM', 'TRANSMISSION_PROGRAM'), ('INFO_PROGRAM', 'INFO_PROGRAM'), ('SPORT_PROGRAM', 'SPORT_PROGRAM')], db_index=True, default=None), ), ] -

Display value in a button by linking two modals

The second modal has Key Id's which should be displayed in the button of the first modal upon selection.

Django OneToMany adding to set throws index out of range
I have a flight model which consists of legs and pricingoption via foreign key. In my view I can parse a leg with leg = self.parse_leg(itinerary["OutboundLegId"], json) which gives me a leg object. But when I do flight = Flight() flight.leg_set.add(self.parse_leg(itinerary["OutboundLegId"], json)) I get a list index out of range. Why? This is my flight model: class Flight(models.Model): creation_date = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now) # Pricing Option, Outbound/Inbound leg via ForeignKey Here goes a leg class Leg(models.Model): ... flight = models.ForeignKey("flight.Flight", null=True) and a PricingOption class PricingOption(models.Model): ... flight = models.ForeignKey("flight.Flight", null=True) -
django celery unit tests with pycharm 'No module named celery'
my tests work fine when my target is a single function (see 'Target' field in the image): questionator.test_mturk_views.TestReport.submit However, when I specify my target to include all tests within my questionator app: questionator I get this error: Error ImportError: Failed to import test module: src.questionator.test_mturk_views Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python27\Lib\unittest\loader.py", line 254, in _find_tests module = self._get_module_from_name(name) File "C:\Python27\Lib\unittest\loader.py", line 232, in _get_module_from_name import(name) File "C:\Users\Andy\questionator_app\src__init__.py", line 5, in from .celery import app as celery_app # noqa ImportError: No module named celery Note that my tests include my settings via 'Environment variables' (see this in the pic too): DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=questionator_app.settings.development;PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 The celery documentation mentions a "Using a custom test runner to test with celery" but this is in the now defunct djcelery package. I did though copy/paste/tweak this mentioned test runner and used it as described, but I get the same error. Unfortunately using CELERY_ALWAYS_EAGER also does not work http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/configuration.html#celery-always-eager I would appreciate some guidance. With best wishes, Andy. -
Django haystack is returning fewer results
A pair of eyes will be much appreciated.

Django + Apache - Can't find directory of my website
I have done a website by using django framework. Now I'm trying to deploy using apache+wsgi. Here is my setting. So I have a ip 59.120.185.12 and here is my .config: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName www.vbgetech.com ServerAlias vbgetech.com ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost Alias /media/ /home/max/v_bridge/media/ Alias /static/ /home/max/v_bridge/static/ <Directory /home/max/v_bridge/media> Require all granted </Directory> <Directory /home/max/v_bridge/static> Require all granted </Directory> WSGIScriptAlias / /home/max/v_bridge/v_bridge/wsgi.py <Directory /home/max/v_bridge/v_bridge/> <Files wsgi.py> Require all granted </Files> </Directory> </VirtualHost> And its my wsgi.py """ WSGI config for website project. It exposes the WSGI callable as a module-level variable named ``application``. For more information on this file, see https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/howto/deployment/wsgi/ """ import os from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application from os.path import join,dirname,abspath PROJECT_DIR = dirname(dirname(abspath(__file__)))#3 import sys # 4 sys.path.insert(0,PROJECT_DIR) # 5 os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "v_bridge.settings") from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application application = get_wsgi_application() I think I do follow all the instruction by official document. And It seems that If I type the ip on browser it still return me a apache default page. I guess that is because my server can't map the ip to the .conf file. Anyone has idea about it? -

Django Tastypie calling multiple resources
I have 3 resources. User, Profile and Settings. Profile and Settings have a FK to User. I have to implement a search that combines all 3 resources. I have applied filters to all 3 resources and can search using tastypie filters. I have also overwritten the alter_list_data_to_serialize and ask it to return only ID's def alter_list_data_to_serialize(self, request, data): if request.GET.get('id_only'): obj={} list=[] for x in data['objects']: list.append(get_pk_from_uri(x.data['user'])) obj['user_ids']=list return obj return data eg: http://127.0.0.1:8000/settings/?visible=True&id_only=true, ( get the ID's) then run http://127.0.0.1:8000/profile/?State=Alaska&User__id__in=[ID LIST FROM REQueST 1] Is there a easier and better way to do this using just one request instead of two. Such as creating a another Resource and getting it to call the other resources ? -
Use bootstrap modal in django class based views, (create, update, search, etc)
Bootstrap modal implementation on standalone page is quite easy, and can be triggered using a button or tag, but lets assume that I have the below classes class CustomerMixin(object) class CustomerFormMixin(CustomerMixin, CreateView) CustomerListView(CustomerMixin, ListView) CustomerCreateView(CustomerMixin, CreateView) CustomerUpdateView(CustomerFormMixin, UpdateView) URL: urlpatterns = [ url(r'^$', CustomerListView.as_view(), name='index'), url(r'^create$', CustomerCreateView.as_view(), name='create'), url(r'^detail/(?P<pk>[0-9]+)$', CustomerDetailView.as_view(), name='detail'), url(r'^delete/(?P<pk>[0-9]+)$', CustomerDeleteView.as_view(), name='delete'), url(r'edit/(?P<pk>[0-9]+)$', CustomerUpdateView.as_view(), name='edit'), ] In the index page I have 3 link each referring to its own Class <a href="{% url 'myapp:create' %}">Create</a> and in the list on Index page for each row in the table I have 2 link for Edit and Delete for that row. So now I want to have bootstrap modal for both Create and Update once user clicks on Create a tag on the Index page so I can trigger modal and at the same time trigger Create class. I have checked the below blogs but no luck: https://libraries.io/pypi/django-fm (This one looks good, but I couldn't implement it) https://dmorgan.info/posts/django-views-bootstrap-modals/ -
Referencing a object of a model with all foreign keys in Django admin UI
I am developing my Djnago app for processing data into DB from admin frontend. I have a table with both foreign keys in it. class exam_questions(models.Model): exam_id=models.ForeignKey(exams,on_delete=models.CASCADE) question_id=models.ForeignKey(questions,on_delete=models.CASCADE) def __int__(self): return self.exam_id When I am trying to return the above field it is shown in admin UI as exam_questions object for all values added into table. Is there a way to get the actual value of the column displayed on admin UI. I have other tables which have have different definitions and I am able to display the required field from that. The issue is observed only when all keys in model are foreign keys Any help is appreciated. -

I'm trying to learn Django from django documentation and thenewboston video tutorials
My background is okayish in c++(can do file handling and file operations, and data structures) I know python upto classes and functions, but no file handling these are the two languages I know, nothing else So, I wanted to learn something new and found Django. But even with the official documentation and video tutorials, most syntaxes dont make any sense. why something is written in a specific file and all that kind of thing. I can follow the codes, and maybe write my own by continously looking into the vids or documentation, but cant do it completely myself, as I dont know the meaning of half the stuff is my method of learning django ok? or shud I try learning something else first like java or javascript? -
Using django user authentication from another app on server
I'm trying to reuse my django authentication system to authorize another app running on another docker container on the same server. def get_username_auth(request): # Return the username if authenticated, None if not. if request.user.is_authenticated(): print('Checked authorization for user: request.user.get_username()') return HttpResponse(request.user.get_username()) else: print('Returned user not authorized') return HttpResponse('NOT_AUTHORIZED') Since the request is coming internally (via another docker container), I don't think the cookies are read by django and the user is not authorized. Is there any elegant way to do this? -

Wanted to create a custom button using custom stripe integration
So this is from Stripe itself: <script src="https://checkout.stripe.com/checkout.js"></script> <button id="customButton">Purchase</button> <script> var handler = StripeCheckout.configure({ key: 'pk_test_****', image: 'https://stripe.com/img/documentation/checkout/marketplace.png', locale: 'auto', token: function(token) { // You can access the token ID with `token.id`. // Get the token ID to your server-side code for use. } }); document.getElementById('customButton').addEventListener('click', function(e) { // Open Checkout with further options: handler.open({ name: 'Company', description: '2 widgets', zipCode: true, amount: 2000 }); e.preventDefault(); }); // Close Checkout on page navigation: window.addEventListener('popstate', function() { handler.close(); }); </script> Question is what goes in here from above: token: function(token) { // You can access the token ID with `token.id`. // Get the token ID to your server-side code for use. } I read that Ajax helps and I tried this piece in there: $.ajax({ url: '/path/to/file', type: 'POST', data: {token: token.id}, success: function(s) { // Do something on success }, error: function(e){ // Do something with the error } }); But that didn't work. What am I supposed to put in the url:? I am trying to get the stripe token to be sent to the server then to charge the card. -

why Django deployed on Heroku is not serving static files?
I've just deployed a project and I've noticed that no CSS/PNG files are served, here's my setting files STATIC_URL = '/static/' STATICFILES_DIRS = (os.path.join(BASE_DIR, ''),os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'WebInterface/'),os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'WebInterface/static'),os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'WebInterface/static/WebInterface/'),) STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticcollector') As you can see my stylesheets and images are under path-in-heroku-to-app/WebInterface/static/WebInterface/x.y Where x is file name and y is the extension.
