How can i make a long polling api with django rest framework
I have a django backend and i'm using django rest framework for my api's, my application is a grading system application that sees change in grades in real time, I don't want to make too many requests to get updates from my server whenever a data is being updated in my server, so i heard of long polling, I've done my research and I've still not gotten any proper guide to implement long polling with django, even in the django channels documentation, please i really need help for this. i tried using polling at first and i got the real time updates but it stresses the server with too many requests, till i heard long polling was a better practice. -
Why won't my image save to my media directory?
I'm using Django. My image is saving when my form is submitted, but it is not saving to my media directory. It is only saving the file. For example, it is saving as "file.png" but not "avatars/file.png". I will note that it is saving as expected from within the admin portal. Here are my files: from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model class Profile(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(get_user_model(), on_delete=models.CASCADE) avatar = models.ImageField(default='avatars/Screenshot_2022-11-30_at_7.18.28_PM.png', upload_to='avatars/') header = models.FileField(default='headers/Screenshot_2022-11-30_at_7.18.28_PM.png', upload_to='headers/') followers = models.ManyToManyField(get_user_model(), related_name='followers', blank=True) from django.shortcuts import render, redirect, HttpResponseRedirect from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model from django.views.generic import ListView, DetailView, View from django.contrib.auth.mixins import LoginRequiredMixin from .models import Profile def updateProf(request): Profile.objects.filter(user_id=request.POST['user_id']).update(avatar=request.FILES['avatar']) return HttpResponseRedirect(request.META.get('HTTP_REFERER')) {% extends 'base.html' %} {% load crispy_forms_tags %} {% block content %} <div class="signup-form"> <h2>Edit profile</h2> <form method="post" action="/update-prof" enctype="multipart/form-data"> {% csrf_token %} <input type="hidden" name="user_id" value="2"> <input type="file" name="avatar"> <button class="btn btn-success" type="submit">Save changes</button> </form> </div> {% endblock %} And my settings/urls file: MEDIA_URL = '/media/' MEDIA_ROOT = BASE_DIR / 'media' ] + static( settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT ) I thought that adding the enctype field/request.FILES would solve the issue, but it didn't. Anyone know how I can get the file to save to avatars/ ? -
Why isn't the number gotten from this random code generator function not being saved on the DB?
I am trying to generate a random redeem code for when a user purchases one of my products. The problem is that once the random code exists and the GetRandomRedeemCode function generates a new code, it won't get saved by Django in the DB. What could be the issue? This is the code that gets called whenever a new order is placed: def CompleteOrder(request): order_qs = Purchase.objects.filter(user=request.user, ordered=False) if order_qs: specific_order = order_qs[0] for order in specific_order.product_purchased.all(): order.item.purchased_by.add(request.user) specific_order.ordered = True specific_order.total_price = specific_order.get_total() *specific_order.redeem_code = GetRandomRedeemCode()* specific_order.save() return redirect("OrderCompletedSuccessURL") And this is the GetRandomRedeemCode() function that gets called to create a random code and to check if the random code is already in the DB, ie. uniqueness. def GetRandomRedeemCode(): random_num = str(random.randint(10000000,99999999)) if Purchase.objects.filter(redeem_code=random_num).exists(): GetRandomRedeemCode() else: return random_num -
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '&' '
I have a django website where i want to include a js graph that plots prices against dates. I use (Plotly) https://plotly.com/javascript/ My problem is when i pass an array of dates (formatted 'yyyy/mm/dd') from my view in views.py into my html file which includes the code for my graph the dates have '&#x27 ;' either side of each date. views.py context = { "dates":['2022/12/03', '2022/12/04', '2022/12/05'], } return render(request, "App/minifig_page.html", context=context) inside html <script> ... var xArray = {{dates}}; ... </script> dates in browser view sources [&#x27 ;2022/12/03', &#x27 ;2022/12/04&#x27 ;, &#x27 ;2022/12/05&#x27 ;] This causes the dates to be improperly formatted and therefore the graph does not display. -

Passing a variable into a filter Django Rest Framework
I'm using a filter in my Django Rest Framework project to search for items in a given date range. I would like to pass variables into a url like so: /?start_date=2022-12-01&end_date=2022-12-06 but I can't seem to figure out how to insert 'start_date' and 'end_date' as variables you can search. The filter works when I do queryset = Search.objects.filter(added_date__range=["2022-12-06", "2022-12-06"]) but I would like it to be something like: queryset = Search.objects.filter(added_date__range=[start_date, end_date]) Here is the model: class Search(models.Model): added_date = models.CharField(max_length=256) added_time = models.CharField(max_length=256) id = models.BigIntegerField() name = models.CharField(max_length=256) View: class SearchViewSet(generics.GenericAPIView): def get_queryset(self): try: Search.objects.filter(added_date__range=[self.start_date, self.end_date]) except Exception as exception: return Response(response500('No Data Found', exception), status=status.HTTP_500_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR) def get(self, request): self.start_date = request.GET['start_date'] self.end_date = request.GET['end_date'] try: queryset = self.get_queryset() search_data = SearchSerializer(queryset, many=True) resp = {'data': search_data.data} response = Response(resp) return response except Exception as exception: return Response(response500('No Data Found', exception), status=status.HTTP_500_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR) Url: re_path(r'search-summary', views.SearchViewSet.as_view(), name='search-summary') -

Nginx 400 Error - client sent plain HTTP request to HTTPS port while reading client request headers
I recently added a SSL certificate to my website using Let's Encrypt and have noticed that when I try to access my website using either HTTP or HTTPS, the site will load correctly most of the time, but sometimes it will return a 400: Bad Request error. Refreshing the page after that will usually return me to the working HTTPS site, but I am having trouble understanding why this error only occurs sometimes.

Django tutorial problem: The current path, polls/, didn’t match any of these

Django UpdateView set read only field by user permission

Redirecting to next url with additional parameters using LoginView
I have a detail page /spaces/<int:pk>/ where an unauthenticated user can enter form data. Upon submitting the form, this data is appended to the url like: /spaces/<int:pk>/?product_id=1&start_date=2022-12-23&duration=1 The user is then prompted to login or register to continue. Upon clicking login, the detail page url is appended as a next parameter to the login url. /login/?next=/spaces/1/?product_id=14&start_date=2022-12-23&duration=1 However, after logging in and redirecting back to the detail page, the url looks like: /spaces/1/?product_id=14 This is because the url is split with & when parsed, so the start_date and duration are considered as separate parameters. The only solution i can think of is to override LoginView.get_redirect_url and append each parameter from self.request.GET separately, but I'm not sure that is the best approach here. My goal is to preserve the initial input data so that the user does not have to input it again after logging in and landing back on the space detail page. For conversion reasons, I do not want to force the user to login before entering the initial form data. -
How to restrict media files of django project via nginx without dedicated server
I am running a Django project in a docker container. Uwsgi is my chosen protocol. Nginx is acting as a reverse proxy. I am able to restrict django sites for users based user.is_authenticated(). I am not able to restrict media and static files for not authenticated users as they get served directly from the filesystem. I do not have a second, dedicated server which only purpose is to identify and authenticate users. As I already have the functionality within my django project, I want to use this.
