Update columns of DataTable after having the data from server
I'm new at DataTables js, I need a solution for my problem. I have a Django app where I use DataTables with server-side processing, the table template is dynamic for all the models I have, I just pass the columns (a list of dicts with data, name and title) within the context of the template, pretty straightforward... def my_page_view(request): columns = generate_datatables_columns("MyModel") return render( request, "my_page.html", {"columns": columns} ) <script> $(document).ready(function() { var columns = []; {% for col in columns %} var jsObject = { {% for key, value in col.items %} "{{ key }}": "{{ value }}", {% endfor %} }; columns.push(jsObject); {% endfor %} var table = $('#my-table').DataTable({ "processing": true, "serverSide": true, "ajax": { "url": "/my/url", "type": "GET", }, "columns": columns, }); }); </script> <table id="my-table" class="display" width="100%"> <thead> <tr> {% for column in columns %} <th id="dt_col_{{column.data}}">{{ column.name }}</th> {% endfor %} </tr> </thead> </table> After that, I needed to make some changes on the columns, but depending on the data received, meaning I should be able to update my columns inside the DataTable definition after having the data. To make the idea clearer, the following code represents one of the attempts I tried, using ajax.dataSrc … -
How to properly load data into a ComboBox in Django with m3_ext and objectpack?
I am developing a Django application using m3_ext and objectpack for the UI components. I need to load ContentType objects into a ComboBox directly from the database. However, my current implementation is not working as expected. The combo box does not show the ContentType of an existing record when editing. You still can choose from combo box, but i really need existing value shoving in combo box for editing. from objectpack.actions import ObjectPack from objectpack.ui import ModelEditWindow, BaseEditWindow, make_combo_box from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType from django.contrib.auth.models import Permission, Group, User from m3_ext.ui import all_components as ext class ContentTypePack(ObjectPack): model = ContentType add_to_desktop = True add_window = edit_window = ModelEditWindow.fabricate(ContentType) class PermissionEditWindow(BaseEditWindow): def _init_components(self): super(PermissionEditWindow, self)._init_components() self.field__name = ext.ExtStringField( label='Name', name='name', allow_blank=False, anchor='100%') self.field__content_type = make_combo_box( label='Content Type', name='ContentType', allow_blank=False, anchor='100%', data=[(ct.id, ct.model) for ct in ContentType.objects.all()]) self.field__codename = ext.ExtStringField( label='Codename', name='codename', allow_blank=False, anchor='100%') def _do_layout(self): super(PermissionEditWindow, self)._do_layout() self.form.items.extend(( self.field__name, self.field__content_type, self.field__codename, )) def set_params(self, params): super(PermissionEditWindow, self).set_params(params) self.height = 'auto' class PermissionPack(ObjectPack): model = Permission add_to_desktop = True add_window = edit_window = PermissionEditWindow def save_row(self, obj, create_new, request, context): obj.name = request.POST.get('name') content_type_id = request.POST.get('ContentType') if content_type_id: obj.content_type = ContentType.objects.get(pk=content_type_id) obj.codename = request.POST.get('codename') obj.save() return obj In edit window content type … -
A discussion on data fetching in Nextjs: Adding types to requests and response and using the fetch API
Context I've been building a web app with nextjs and a custom backend in Django Python and I've been struggling to find a clean way to make API requests to my backend from Nextjs. What I'm looking for is a way to centralise the logic for the fetch function while adding type safety to the request body and responses. Current approach const api = { get: async function (url: string): Promise<any> { console.log("get", url); return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { fetch(`${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL}${url}`, { method: "GET", headers: { Accept: "application/json", "Content-Type": "application/json", }, cache: "no-store", }) .then((response) => response.json()) .then((json) => { console.log("Response:", json); resolve(json); }) .catch((error) => { reject(error); }); }); }, post: async function (url: string, data: any): Promise<any> { console.log("post", url, data); return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { fetch(`${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL}${url}`, { method: "POST", body: JSON.stringify(data), headers: { Accept: "application/json", "Content-Type": "application/json", }, }) .then((response) => response.json()) .then((json) => { console.log("Response:", json); resolve(json); }) .catch((error) => { reject(error); }); }); }, } In this approach, I am centralising the logic for get and post requests in the sense that now I can just import api and call api.post/get to make a request to my backend. However, I don't like repeating code … -
ASGI for django not compatible with Server-sent-events?
I previously wrote an SSE (Server sent event) request using Django and it looked all right. def event_stream(): """ Generator function to yield messages. """ for i in range(10): yield f"data: Message {i}\n\n" time.sleep(1) # Simulate delay in message generation response = StreamingHttpResponse(event_stream(), content_type='text/event-stream') response['Cache-Control'] = 'no-cache' response['Connection'] = 'keep-alive' return response Later, I installed channels because I needed to use websocket, and switched from WSGI to using ASGI. At this point, I noticed that the request was not returning properly, but was returning all the data at once at the end. I'm not sure what is causing this or how to fix it. python version:3.11.7 django version:5.0.6 channels version:3.0.5 -

Django auth_adfs Access to Azure Externals
In a Django application, I am using the django_auth_adfs module. In my frontend, I can have users log in as company externals via Microsoft authentication. Unfortunatelly, they are getting a 401 error when trying to send requests to my Django backend. In the Django Documentation I found the following I’m receiving an KeyError: 'upn' error when authenticating against Azure AD.¶ In some circumstances, Azure AD does not send the upn claim used to determine the username. It’s observed to happen with guest users who’s source in the users overview of Azure AD is Microsoft Account instead of Azure Active Directory. In such cases, try setting the USERNAME_CLAIM to email instead of the default upn. Or create a new user in your Azure AD directory. If I switch the USERNAME_CLAIM from upn to email the guest can now receive the HTTP results, but the problem is that the company members now can not. I then went to my App Registration -> Token configuration -> Access and added upn as an optional token with the option Externally authenticated: This option includes the guest UPN as stored in the resource tenant. set to yes. Now the guest has in its access token also … -
VSCode/Pylance - fail to import specific class
I'm trying out VSCode for Django development instead of PyCharm. I'm quite happy with the new configuration, but there's an issue which is driving me mad: VSCode fails to suggest only specific classes from django lib. So far, I'm able to get import suggestions like this: and selecting the class will import it correctly. But, if I try with ListView or LoginRequiredMixin, this happens: where django_tables2.views and hijack.views are third party libraries. If I search for additional import matches, the two classes are not found This is my VSCode workspace configuration: { "python.testing.pytestArgs": [ "." ], "python.testing.unittestEnabled": false, "python.languageServer": "Pylance", "python.testing.pytestEnabled": true, "python.analysis.autoFormatStrings": true, "python.analysis.autoSearchPaths": false, "python.analysis.autoImportCompletions": true, "python.analysis.inlayHints.callArgumentNames": "off", "python.analysis.inlayHints.functionReturnTypes": true, "python.analysis.userFileIndexingLimit": -1, "python.analysis.indexing": true, "python.analysis.stubPath": "", "python.analysis.inlayHints.variableTypes": true, "python.analysis.typeCheckingMode": "off", "python.autoComplete.addBrackets": true, "python.analysis.completeFunctionParens": true, "python.analysis.packageIndexDepths": [ { "name": "", "depth": 10, "includeAllSymbols": true }, ], "python.experiments.enabled": false, } Is this a bug or something? I found many issues on the Pylance repository, but in my case the files are correctly indexed (I can find UpdateView and other django classes).

Django & rest_framework - method get_queryset being called twice, is there any other better solution?

See: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#permissions It ensures that the user is authenticated, and has the appropriate `view`/`add`/`change`/`delete` permissions on the model.

How can I grant permissions to a client that is not a User in Django?
I have a Django Rest Framework application that has been working well with OIDC auth and human interactions using django-oauth-toolkit. Now I want to add a couple of service accounts so that some external automation can make some requests and create some objects. According to django-oauth-toolkit, The Client Credential grant is suitable for machine-to-machine authentication. So I've implemented this grant type and tested it out with the below script: client_id='axXSSBVuvOyGVzh4PurvKaq5MHXMm7FtrHgDMi4u' secret='hun***2' credential="${client_id}:${secret}" CREDENTIAL=$(printf '%s' "$credential" | base64) export CREDENTIAL ( set -x r=$( curl "http://[::1]:8080/o/token/" \ -H "Authorization: Basic ${CREDENTIAL}" \ -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" \ -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \ -X POST \ -d "grant_type=client_credentials" \ -d 'user=2' ) access_token=$(jq -r '.access_token' <<< "$r") curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${access_token}" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" 'http://[::1]:8080/notify/riskimpacts/' ) and the response is an HTTP 403: {"detail":"You do not have permission to perform this action."} It authenticates, but does not authorize any access to any views, because there is no user associated with these credentials. In fact, django-oauth-toolkit removes the user from the request even if there should be one, so there really cannot ever be a user associated with the access token created here. Yet, all but the most open (practically anonymous) django-rest-framework permissions require … -
Best Practices for Deploying Permanently Running Applications on Windows Server
I'm currently managing several projects deployed on a Windows Server, including: A Django backend, Celery for background tasks, React frontends Due to coorperate constraints, we can't use a Linux server, where solutions for these needs are more straightforward. I'm looking for the best practices or tools that can help in deploying these applications on a Windows environment, ensuring they run reliably over time. Specifically: Django Backend: What are the recommended ways to deploy Django on Windows? Celery: What are the best practices for running Celery workers and the beat scheduler on Windows? How can I ensure they are automatically restarted in case of a failure? React Frontend: What are the best deployment strategies for React applications on a Windows server? Additionally, I'd appreciate any advice on: Setting up a robust logging system. Monitoring the health and performance of these services. Ensuring automatic startup and recovery after server reboots or failures. Any guidance or resources would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance. I have looked into using NSSM (Non-Sucking Service Manager) for managing services, but it seems to be a dead project with no recent updates or active maintenance. Currently, we are using Windows Task Scheduler, but it appears ill-suited … -
Creating a reusbale form in Django SOLVED
Right, trying to create a reusable form into my Django website. For some reason, it's just not displaying the form fields. It's displaying the submit button, but despite correctly setting out the fields, and passing them to my template, the template is refusing the display the form fields. Trying to set up the form on the privacy-statement page and would also just love to reuse this i my cookie-statement page as well. The privacy-statement already exists, the form is new and I want this to be reusable. Here is my setup, including the file paths of each file: Update: this has been solved. See altered working below: #PROJECT-NAME/legal/forms.py from django import forms class TicketForm(forms.Form): subject = forms.CharField(max_length=255) description = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea) email = forms.EmailField() #PROJECT-NAME/legal/views.py from django.shortcuts import render, redirect from django.http import HttpResponse from . forms import TicketForm from django.core.mail import send_mail, BadHeaderError from django.template import loader from blauwestadtech import utils from django.conf import settings import requests def legal__privacy_statement(request): form = TicketForm() context = { 'form' : form } return render (request, 'privacy-statement.html', context) #PROJECT-NAME/legal/urls from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path, include from . import views from .views import create_ticket urlpatterns = [ path( 'privacy/', include( [ path('cookie-statement', …
