I'm trying to add captcha field to Django UserCreationFrom and I can not solve it. I can not post everything what I tried because I'm trying modify this view about 2 hours. I have register form on my site made by Django UserCreationFrom - everything is ok but I decied to add Recaptcha. I have app name "accounts" and in this app I have view in which is this: from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm, get_user_model from django.template.context_processors import request from django.urls import reverse_lazy from django.views import generic from captcha.fields import ReCaptchaField from captcha.widgets import ReCaptchaV2Checkbox class SignUpForm(UserCreationForm): class Meta: model = get_user_model() fields = ('first_name', "last_name", "username", "email", "password1", "password2") class Captcha(UserCreationForm): captcha = ReCaptchaField(widget=ReCaptchaV2Checkbox) class SignUpView(generic.CreateView): form_class = SignUpForm success_url = reverse_lazy("login") template_name = 'accounts/signup.html' Signup.html looks like this: {% extends 'main.html' %} {% block title %} Přihlášení {% endblock %} {% block content %} <h2>Registrace</h2> <div class="box"> <form method="post"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form.as_p }} <button type="submit"> Registrovat </button> </form> </div> {% endblock %} I installed the django-recaptcha library - added it in settings.

Redirect user to previous page after submitting form in Django
I am trying to redirect the user to the previous page once a form is submitted. To make it clear this is what the process would look like User starts on Venue_id page and clicks on product id User is directed to Product_id page and find a form User completes form and submit on Product_id page user redirect to Venue_id page upon form submission I found a good source of inspiration on the forum, particularly on this page (How to redirect to previous page in Django after POST request) (I also found some posts using the history of the browser. But decided to stick to this method, as it seems using browser history doesn't always work) I used next as suggested in the code in the above post. But there is something I don't understand which is probably why I get this wrong. Here is the different codes in views I tried for next: next = request.POST.get('next','/') => this sends me to '/', which is not what i want. However it seemed to work for the person who posted the original question even though they were trying to NOT be redirect to '/'; next = request.POST.get('next','') => sends me to … -
Custom class for Error and Success Massages in Django Rest Framework
I wrote most of the codes and there are many return statements like this... except Comments.DoesNotExist: return Response({"response": False, "return_code": "comments_not_exist", "result": "Comment_Get_Failed", \ "message": errors["comments_DoesNotExist"]}, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST) ...... except Exception as error: return Response({"response": False, "return_code": "internal_code_error", "result": "Comment_Get_Failed", \ "message": str(error)}, status=status.HTTP_500_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR) ...... I was tired that. return_response.CustomException(detail={"your": "exception", "some_other": "key", "response": "key2", \ "result": "key3",}, status_code=status.HTTP_404_NOT_FOUND) but I don't think that's good practice. Looks like it's the same as return. I want to Implement a class that should contain all input shortcuts. Is there any better way to do that? Output should be like that. { "response": True / False, "return_code": "Success / Failed", "result": "..." "message": "Successfully Failed :)" } -

How to get started building a web video conferencing site?
I started coding early this year and have done little projects here and there like a chat bot, to do list etc. I want to do a few advanced full stack projects in the span of a year that will give me a deep dive understanding. Basically, I want to build a big project and learn as I go. I don't really care how long that takes. One of these projects is a web conferencing app like google meet but specifically to conduct coding interviews. It will have all the usual web conferencing features with an added code playground. I know it is ambitious project. However, I am having a hard time figuring out what tech stack to use. I wanted to use Vue for any frontend elements (which I know are not much) but simply because I want to pick up the framework. I am mostly a python person so I was wondering if I could use django on the backend? I am okay with using express to but just prefer python. I also want to use third party frame works. I am yet to research deeply but maybe agora, webRTC or socket or something idk Any advice would … -

How do you make a synced volume with Docker, Django and Gunicorn?

Where in Django Charfield() is max_length defined as compulsory?
I have a Django app and trying to understand the logic on how to read docs correctly in order to e.g. create a Charfield object. So here is my model: from django.db import models class Person(models.Model): f_name = models.CharField() . . . . . . If I run the app I get the error: Charfields must define a 'max_length' attribute I get that I need to do: f_name = models.CharField(max_length=40) But why? when I read the code for Charfield it's not there, so I read the code for its superclass Field but I don't see where max_length is set to be compulsory! Please assist (new to oop) Thank you :) -
Using KMeans adding it to my django app python
I have a general and basic understanding of how the K-Means algorithm works. My problem revolves around connecting people with similar interests which is represented in features that will be used during clustering. Having done that before on files like a csv and txt, how would I go about adding it to my Django app to have it run every time an event occurs, like someone outside the cluster likes another's post. -
Format Django rendered date string dates into YYYY-MM-DD format
When we pass date object in django view and render in html, it outputs in below format. 'Oct. 7, 2022', 'Sept. 9, 2022', 'Aug. 12, 2022', 'July 15, 2022', 'June 17, 2022', 'May 20, 2022', 'April 22, 2022', 'March 25, 2022', 'Feb. 25, 2022', 'Jan. 28, 2022', 'Dec. 31, 2021', 'Feb. 11, 2022', 'Nov. 5, 2021' This is example of how each month looks like. I want to convert it into YYYY-MM-DD format. I am using below approach which is working version but I am looking for optimized code for the same. import re import datetime date_value = 'Sept. 9, 2022' date_value = re.split("[., ]", date_value) date_value[0] = date_value[0][:3] date_value = ' '.join(date_value) date_value = datetime.datetime.strptime(date_value, '%b %d %Y').strftime('%Y-%m-%d') print(date_value) >> 2022-09-09 Is there any other way to directly convert it into this format? This question is not about formatting django date like date_value |date:"Y-M-d" on UI. Rather I am looking to do in python backend. Thanks in advance! -
How to sign-in with LDAP using django-allauth login page

Best ways deal with large data on backend django?
I know this is a broad question that is kinda difficult to understand. But I couldn't get answers by googling. I have a large amount of data from more than 100 000 users. The data is about purchases, shipping, user invites, and so on. Overall, it is quite big and almost all models in my Django backend have foreign keys to each other. When sorting users I have to access the database for each user, which takes around 30 seconds to sort. So, instead, I am caching all user-related data in Redis(refreshing it once a day) and sorting them on request (without accessing the database, jut using what is in the cache), which reduced the time to ~1.5sec. If someone knows a better way to deal with it, can you please share it? -

How to fetch id with get method in django?
I have a model named WorkOut that stores all the data regarding workout sessions. LIke type of workout, reps, weights etc. There are 2 columns that I do not fill initially. I am trying to fill them with button clicks. Start time and end time. The idea is at the beginning of the set user will click a button and it will fill up the "start time" column with current time. At the end of the set they will click the other button to fill up the "end time" column. To achieve this I need to fetch the id for that specific object(row). If I have 10 sets of workout, I need to get the id for each specific row so when button is clicked only the column associated to that row is updated. It should be simple but I am struggling. This is how my attempt looks like- WorkOut.objects.get('id') I am running a for loop to display the entire model on the template. I checked by displaying all the id on my template, they are there. But the above code doesn't fetch individual id. When I know the id, I can go like this- WorkOut.objects.get(id=18) And sure enough it …
