Django is not rendering my static file (css, images, etc)
I am able to view my site (html)in the browser but none of my mark-up is working. I have checked my stylesheet links for types, settings.py, but I am at a lost. When I run my site I am getting the below responses in my terminal. `[10/Nov/2022 20:46:23] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 168 [10/Nov/2022 20:46:23] "GET /static/css/main.css HTTP/1.1" 404 1795 [10/Nov/2022 20:46:23] "GET /static/images/6%2Bcart.png HTTP/1.1" 404 1810` I have tried going over everything possible but cannot locate the issue, any and all feedback would be greatly appreciated. I am not allowed to post images yet so unfortunately, I could not include. I have re-coded, deleted and remade static folder, scoured the internet with no luck yet. -

Restrict users to see detailview based on model field value in Django
I am learning and have a change management project where my model contains field confidential which is by default False, however during instance creation so called initiator could tick it as True. This basically means that only users which are part of current record so called signees could open and see the instance. I am trying to apply get_queryset override on my DetailView: # MOC DetailView class MocDetailView(LoginRequiredMixin, DetailView): model = Moc template_name = 'moc/moc_detail.html' def get_queryset(self, *args, **kwargs): qs = super().get_queryset(*args, **kwargs) for obj in qs: print(obj) confidential = obj.confidential initiator = obj.initiator coordinators = obj.coordinators.all() reviewers = obj.reviewers.all() approvers = obj.approvers.all() preimplements = obj.preimplements.all() authorizers = obj.authorizers.all() postimplements = obj.postimplements.all() closers = obj.closers.all() if initiator and initiator == self.request.user and confidential == True: qs = qs.filter(Q(confidential=True) & Q(initiator=self.request.user)) return qs for signee in coordinators: coordinator_name = signee.coordinator_name if coordinator_name and coordinator_name == self.request.user and confidential == True: qs = qs.filter(Q(confidential=True) & Q(coordinators__coordinator_name=self.request.user)) return qs for signee in reviewers: reviewer_name = signee.reviewer_name if reviewer_name and reviewer_name == self.request.user and confidential == True: qs = qs.filter(Q(confidential=True) & Q(reviewers__reviewer_name=self.request.user)) return qs for signee in approvers: approver_name = signee.approver_name if approver_name and approver_name == self.request.user and confidential == True: qs = qs.filter(Q(confidential=True) … -
Django Model Serializer manyToMany relationship
I have problem with Django 4.1.2 (Python 3.8.9). I have 2 entities: Idea and IdeaTheme, which have manyToMany relationship. class Idea(models.Model): short_name = models.CharField(max_length=70) description = models.TextField(null=True, blank=True, default='') class State(models.IntegerChoices): CREATED = 0, _("Создано") TEAM_SEARCHING = 1, _("Поиск команды") IN_PROCESS = 2, _("Реализация") READY = 3, _("Готово") state = models.IntegerField(choices=State.choices, default=State.CREATED) wanted_skills = models.ManyToManyField(to=UserSkill) themes = models.ManyToManyField(to=IdeaTheme, null=True, blank=True) class IdeaTheme(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=70, verbose_name="Название") background_photo = models.ImageField(blank=True, null=True, verbose_name="Изображение для фронта") Also I have ModelSerializer class IdeaSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Idea fields = '__all__' depth = 1 extra_kwargs = { 'state': { 'read_only': True }, 'pk': { 'read_only': True } } And when I using CreateAPIView in order to create Idea I face the problem, that I must provide IdeaTheme pks. But in the model there are Null and Blank option and I want to create idea without IdeaThemes. I tried to specify IdeaTheme serializer inside IdeaSerializer like this, but Django still require not empty array of IdeaTheme. themes = IdeaThemeSerializer(many=True, required=False) Could someone help me, please, who already has experience using built-in serializers? -

Django - Form that lists the fields for every foreign key
I have this 2 models: class AccountsPlan (models.Model): code = models.CharField(max_length=7, unique=True) name = models.CharField(max_length=100, unique=True) active = models.BooleanField(default=True) class Planning (models.Model): accountplan = models.ForeignKey(AccountsPlan, on_delete=models.PROTECT, limit_choices_to={'active': True}) month = models.DateField() amount = models.DecimalField(max_digits=14, decimal_places=2) This form: class PlanningForm(forms.ModelForm): accountplan = ModelChoiceField(queryset=AccountsPlan.objects.filter(active=True).order_by('code')) month = forms.DateField(required=True) amount = forms.DecimalField(max_digits=14, decimal_places=2, required=True, localize=True) class Meta: model = Planning fields = '__all__' And this view: def new_planning(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = PlanningForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() else: form = PlanningForm() return render(request, 'app/pages/planning/new_planning.html', context={ 'form': form, }) The form works as intended, but right now, I have more than a 100 entries in the AccountsPlan model and this number will increase overtime. The user needs to fill the PlanningForm every month for every foreign key in the AccountsPlan model, so filling one by one is not ideal. Since the month field will be the same for every foreign key and only the amount field is different, what I'm trying to do is this: The form lists every foreign key with an amount field for each one and a single month field. The user selects de date and enter just the amount and that saves the data. I tried this answer and managed … -

Get Data Problem with Foreignkey Models QuerySet (Django)
I am making django practising. I found a repo and edited to myself. When i came to the get data from models with foreignkey, i get query instead of data. I think my function is a little bit spagetti or my template file. Full repo is here https://github.com/eseymenler/demo2 Here is the output of my codes. First red square is query, but i want second red square datas. Hasta Adı: {{ patient.name }} Hastanın Sağlık Problemi: {{ prob }} Hastanın Boyu: {{ vital }} Hastanın Sigara Kullanım Durumu: {{ social }} First data {{ patient.name }} is very good for me. Thats what i want. But when i get write {{ prob.problem }} it gives me nothing. So where is my fault. But also when i make for loop like this, i get data which i want. So how can i fix this. {% for y in prob %} {{ y.problem }} {% endfor %} And my views.py @login_required() def patienttumbilgiListView(request, id): patient = Patient.objects.get(aadhaarId = id) prob = ProblemList.objects.filter(patient = patient) vital = VitalSign.objects.filter(patient = patient) social = SocialHistory.objects.filter(patient = patient) return render( request, 'patient_records/patient-problem-tum.html', context={'prob': prob, 'vital': vital, 'social': social, 'patient': patient }) and my template file {% extends … -
(MacOS) Django can't find the MySQL driver ... but, why?

So, before I "bang my head uselessly against this thing," especially given that it used to work, will someone out there kindly give me a nudge in the right direction? What am I missing here? I particularly notice that the package is trying the path, /usr/lib... when that is not in fact the proper location here. In particular: I see in the text a reference to @rpath which I am sure is the root cause of the problem – obviously, the value is wrong. (I notice that it does have the library-name right.) I'm frankly not familiar with this @rpath thing, nor exactly what sets it. Thank you kindly in advance ... -
Django Channels Freezes when calling internal Django-Filters API
I am using django-nextjs which required me to install Django Channels. Now this works fine until my frontend makes an API call to a DRF APIView which in turn makes an API call to Django-Filters to return a queryset. This freezes the entire server until the connection times out. Do you have an idea how this could be fixed?

Why django admin is not reading the __str__ method?

How can I create an index with django that takes into account multiple columns and most importantly a 5 second interval
I want to create an interval for a table that says "each entry will be unique based on it's col a, col b, col c, and a 5 second interval" For example I want to be able to do something like this: class Meta: indexes = [ models.Index(fields=['col_a',]), models.Index(fields=['col_b',]), models.Index(fields=['col_c',]), models.Index(expression='five second interval') ] Is this possible? If so what's the right way to do something like this? -
Why setUpTestData has an argument and setUp doesn't?
Pretty much the title. In django, when creating tests, we have two options, setUp and setUpTestData. I understand that setUp will be called each time a single test runs, while setUpTestData will be called only once and be used in multiple tests. I don't understand what the cls does in setUpTestData(cls), though. And why setUp() doesn' t have that argument? -
django custom admin login page
I have a custom auth mechanism for users and I want to use the same for django admin. All works fine for authenticated users but if an unauthenticated user opens the url /admin he is redirected to /admin/login with the std. login page for admin. I want to redirect to auth/sign-in or block the page. urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls), path('admin/login', SignInView.as_view(), name='admin/login'), ... Redefining the url like in the code block does not work. Any idea? -

Django GROUP BY without aggregate
I would like to write the following query in Postgresql using Django ORM: SELECT t.id, t.field1 FROM mytable t JOIN ... JOIN ... WHERE .... GROUP BY id Note that there is NO aggregate function (like SUM, COUNT etc.) in the SELECT part. By the way, it's a perfectly legal SQL to GROUP BY primary key only in Postgresql. How do I write it in Django ORM? I saw workarounds like adding .annotate(dummy=Count('*')) to the queryset (but it slows down the execution) or introducing a dummy custom aggregate function (but it's a dirty hack). How to do it in a clean way? -

How to automatically and regularly update database for a web application?
I am new to web development and I have a fundamental question on developing a website that takes queries from the users and searching inside a database. I am developing a website that takes queries from users and searches in an existing database. I already developed the web app part with Django. The app takes some keywords, searches the database, and displays the returned data in a table form. The database is made out of several csv files that are irregularly updated, say every one or two weeks. They are located in some local storage, say /home/james/csv_files/. To develop the website, I first processed the csv files in my local machine and made them into db.sqlite3 file, the default(?) database that comes with Django. I uploaded these to GitLab, including the db.sqlite3, and deployed to see if it works, and it worked file. But current implementation always searches in the uploaded db.sqlite3. I am looking for an automatic way that regularly process the csv files in /home/james/csv_files/ to update the database and let the web app to use the updated database. Where should I start? Currently, there is a python script that reads /home/james/csv_files/*.csv and merge them into /home/steven/project/db.sqlite3. Application … -

Using multiple backend frameworks with one database in a virtual machine
I'm wondering if I could use multiple backend frameworks, using only 1 database in a VM instance in production without any problems. For example, I wanna keep Django Admin and its authentication rest API services, while using FastAPI for other things, possibly even ExpressJs in the future. I want to achieve this because different frameworks have different strengths and available third-party libraries in their ecosystems. I know NGINX as a reverse proxy and a load balancer will control the traffic load and directions to different endpoints. Still, would there be any conflicts in the database or anything I should be watching out for? Thank you! -
How to add custom view to custom AdminSite in Django
im a beginner with Django and basically want to add a section in Django Admin where if I click on it, I have a view that can process data. For example: I have models Campaign and Components which I can access through Django Admin and now I also want an Option "Analytics" that work the same way as if it was a model. Maybe this image will make clear what I want: When I click on "Analytics" I want to call a view that can fill a html template with data that I calculate from my models e.g. build a table that counts my instances of Campaigns and Components. What I've done so far: create a custom AdminSite to overwrite the default AdminSite. Problem: I do not see my option appearing. #admin.py class MyAdminSite(admin.AdminSite): def get_urls(self): urls = super(MyAdminSite, self).get_urls() custom_urls = [ path(r'myapi/test/', self.admin_view(testview)), ] return urls + custom_urls site_header = "My custom site" admin_site = MyAdminSite(name="myadmin") #apps.py class MyAdminConfig(AdminConfig): default_site = "myapi.admin.MyAdminSite" #settings.py INSTALLED_APPS = [ 'rest_framework', #'django.contrib.admin', "myapi.apps.MyAdminConfig", #views.py @api_view(["GET", "POST"]) def testview(request): print("testmyview") return render(1, "mytest.html") #urls.py urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin_site.urls), path('api/', include('myapi.urls')), ] I tried to follow this tutorial: https://adriennedomingus.medium.com/adding-custom-views-or-templates-to-django-admin-740640cc6d42 but I think after … -
Create a GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY identifier field in a PostgreSQL 14+ database table using Django 4.1.x
I would like Django 4.1.x (I'm using 4.1.3 at the time of writing) to create a PostgreSQL (v14+) table for which the identifier, id, has to be created as if I were creating the table with this SQL snippet for the id field: id BIGINT PRIMARY KEY GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY. This would normally ends up on a schema like this in PG 15: $ pg_dump --table table --schema-only -d postgres -- multiple SET statements here (...) CREATE TABLE public.table ( id bigint NOT NULL, name character varying(1024) NOT NULL ); ALTER TABLE public.table OWNER TO postgres; ALTER TABLE public.table ALTER COLUMN id ADD GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY ( SEQUENCE NAME public.table_id_seq START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY 1 NO MINVALUE NO MAXVALUE CACHE 1 ); ALTER TABLE ONLY public.table ADD CONSTRAINT table_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id); Here's my current model in Django: class Foo(models.Model): name = models.CharField( max_length=256, verbose_name=_("Name"), null=False, ) def __str__(self): return f"{self.name}" It actually creates this table (makemigrations/migrate) with the following ALTER statement instead: ALTER TABLE public.table ALTER COLUMN id ADD GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY ( SEQUENCE NAME public.table_id_seq START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY 1 NO MINVALUE NO MAXVALUE CACHE 1 ); How can I achieve that, …
