How to localize Django duplicate key value violates unique constraint error message?
Problem description I would want to provide clear localized error messages to client using Django. I have the following unique field: class Foo(models.Model) email = models.EmailField(max_length=255, unique=True, default=None, blank=True, null=True, verbose_name=gettext_lazy('email address'), error_messages={'unique': gettext_lazy("Email address is already registered to another user.")}) When I try to save duplicate email address, I still get an error psycopg2.errors.UniqueViolation: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "foo_email_key" Question Why is my error message not localized?

AsyncIO: Program still runs in a synchronous manner despite using AsyncIO in Django
I have created an API named APIDummyWait5. Now I want to test the following - I want the API to return the result in few milliseconds. - While the function that is being called inside the API should run in an asynchronous manner. The API - APIDummyWait5 randomly generates a number in between 1 - 25 and then sends that as an argument to a function named get_country_details along with another parameter named country that I will be fetching from API url params. Here is the API class APIDummyWait5(APIView): def get(self, request): print("Coming Here") worker = os.getpid() thread = threading.get_ident() country = request.GET.get('country') print(f"API wait 5 - for worker - {worker} at Thread {thread} starting at: {datetime.datetime.now()}") wait_time = rd.randint(1, 25) response = {'wait_time': wait_time, 'country': country} asyncio.run(main(wait_time=wait_time, country=country)) print(f"API Wait 5 - for worker - {worker} at Thread {thread} ending at: {datetime.datetime.now()}") return Response({ "data": response }) async def main(wait_time, country): result = await get_country_details(wait_time, country) I am creating a helper function named main to call the get_country_details function. The function - get_country_details actually sleeps for the wait time and then calls a third party API to fetch the name and capital of a country and store it in … -
Django different models' m2m relations fields comparsion related to same m2m model
I'm following this question to filter on M2M field: Django filter queryset __in for *every* item in list I'm using .annotation approach.

In this case I woul d like to match Product instance which also haven't any options but it fails returning no objects. -
How should I store google login info sent from frontend in backend Django? [closed]
In my Django application, I want to implement Google and Apple login. For Google login, the frontend (using Firebase Authentication) sends me the following details: Google ID, display name, email, and photo URL. How should I store this data in the backend so that users can log in again in the future? Should I use the django-allauth package (which requires setting up social providers with client ID and secret), or should I manually store the data in the default users table? Could you suggest the best approach? Thanks! -

Empty Dynamic Nested Serializer for Generic Django Model
I have this generic Model called Thumbs with two fields which can describe another model. The two fields are: 'entity_type', a CharField values can be a family or product, both corresponding to Family and Product models, respectively Then there's 'entity_id', a IntegerField this is the PrimaryKey for the previous entity in another table. So, I want to create a serializer for this Thumbs model which implements a nested serializer for the specified 'entity_type'. For example, if the 'entity_type' is family, the serializer used a FamilySerializer so the serialized Thumbs object has the entity's data. This is how I implemented that behavior, but it is returning an empty family object. from rest_framework import serializers from app.models import Thumbs, Family from app.serializers.user_role_product_tool import FamilySerializer, ProductSerializer class ThumbSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): entity = serializers.SerializerMethodField() class Meta: model = Thumbs fields = '__all__' def get_entity(self, obj): if obj.entity_type == "family": return FamilySerializer(source=obj.entity_id, read_only=True).data else: return None Example output showing the Family serializer is being used when expected, but it's empty although the Family table has an entry with PrimaryKey of 107: { "id": 182, "entity": { "family_name": "", "status": "", "created_by": "", "last_updated_by": "" }, "entity_id": "107", "entity_type": "family", "thumbs_decision": "PENDING", "entity_parent_id": "181", "created_date": "2024-09-03T14:21:17.403159-07:00", "last_updated_by": "", … -

How to reload the current page with a different html template after a Task completes in Django?
I'm working on a Django project where I need to handle a task that runs in the background. Once the task is completed, I want to reload the current page, but I also need it to load a specific HTML template on that same URL. Currently, I'm using AJAX to poll the status of the task, and once it’s completed, I receive a JSON response from the server indicating the task's completion. My goal is to reload the current page when the task is done, so the user can see the updated content. I want that if the user visits the page later or deletes or reloads the tab the new template is what is loaded and not the old one. Here's my django view: @csrf_protect def initiate_transcription(request, session_id): file_name = request.session.get('uploaded_file_name') file_path = request.session.get('uploaded_file_path') try: transcribed_doc = TranscribedDocument.objects.get(id=session_id) except TranscribedDocument.DoesNotExist: return JsonResponse({'status': 'error', 'message': 'Document not found'}, status=404) if request.method == 'GET': if not file_name or not file_path: return redirect(reverse('transcribeSubmit')) if request.method == 'POST': if not file_name or not file_path: return redirect(reverse('transcribeSubmit')) else: try: if transcribed_doc.state == 'not_started': transcribed_doc.state = 'in_progress' transcribed_doc.save() audio_language = request.POST.get('audio_language') output_file_type = request.POST.get('output_file_type') task = transcribe_file_task.delay(file_path, audio_language, output_file_type, 'ai_transcribe_output', session_id) return JsonResponse({'status': 'success', 'task_id': … -
Best practices for enum with django models and migrations

Using the enum directly like this: models.CharField( choices=[ tuple( (v.value, v.value) for v in ForwardsUpdateEventSensitivityVersion ) ], ) Or hardcoding the values like this: models.CharField( choices=[("V1", "V1"), ("V2", "V2")], ) -

Issue with Django translation not reflecting in the admin interface
I'm working on enabling Swedish translations in a Django project using the standard i18n/l10n setup, but I can't get the translated strings to appear in the admin interface. I've set up the LOCALE_PATHS, created .po and compiled .mo files, and added 'sv' to LANGUAGES in settings.py, but the admin is still showing English strings. What am I missing? I've already run python manage.py compilemessages, ensured that the .mo files exist, and tried clearing the cache, but the admin interface still defaults to English. Has anyone encountered this before? Is there something I might be missing in the configuration or setup? -

Sending Apple Push Notifications to Wallet Passes for different PassTypeID
i have a webapp that is able to create apple wallet passes for iOS. Process more or less looks like this: User provides his Apple Pass ID and certificate from apple developer, based on that cert i am creating wallet passes that i can send to devices, then devices register to my webServiceURL. Now i have tested this app while creating the passes from my Apple Pass ID and while using my APNs key from the same developer account and everything works great. What im looking for now is how to send push notifications to devices that have passes with different Apple Pass ID (so from user apple pass ID) with my APNs key. Apps like PassKit etc. can send those notifications while not requesting user to provide his APNs key, maybe there is something i fundamentally dont understand about this process? Im using aioapns library for python and when i try to push notify pass made with PassTypeID from different apple developer account, if i use that PassTypeID as topic with keys from my developer accound i get TopicDissalowed, and when i use my PassTypeID as topic, device is not notified. -

Can't send files to ChatConsumer in Django Channels
I'm having an issue with sending files to a handler in ChatConsumer using Django Channels. I have two consumers, ChatConsumer and GroupChatConsumer, for handling direct messages and group messages. I want to send files to ChatConsumer or GroupChatConsumer based on whether a group exists or not. If the group doesn't exist then file should go to ChatConsumer I'm sending the files using channel_layer.group_send through views. Keep in mind I have the same handler name in ChatConsumer and GroupConsumer but despite changing those the issue persists What i have tried: Added print statements right after group_send to confirm if they execute without any error and they do! I also added logging inside ChatConsumer to see if any file or message is recived but there isn't! Ensured if the websocket connections are active and they are! So how can I verify if a message is successfully sent to ChatConsumer? Why is the consumer not receiving any messages? My code: https://github.com/Kioshi5581/djchat -

Is Enumerating Through Multiple Categories in API Tests a Good Practice? Alternatives for View Testing?
I'm currently writing tests for my Django application using pytest and pytest-django. One of my tests involves creating multiple category instances and verifying that they are correctly listed in the API response. Here’s a snippet of the test: @pytest.mark.django_db def test_auth_user_can_list_categories(auth_client, category_factory): categories = category_factory.create_batch(5) url = reverse("category-list") response = auth_client.get(url) assert response.status_code == 200 for i, category in enumerate(categories): assert response.data[i]["id"] == category.id assert response.data[i]["name"] == category.name In this test, I’m creating 5 distinct categories and then using enumerate to loop through them to verify that each category is correctly listed in the API response. I’m wondering if this approach of enumerating through the categories to match them with the API response is considered a good practice. Are there any better or more efficient ways to test this scenario? Specifically, are there alternative strategies for view testing that could offer more robust or scalable solutions? I’d appreciate any advice or best practices on how to improve this test or alternative methods to achieve the same results. -
