Why is my django-crispy AdminForm not able to resolve AdminSite url?
Setup I defined an new admin url: from django.contrib.admin import AdminSite from django.http import HttpResponse from django.urls import path class MyAdminSite(AdminSite): def get_urls(self): from django.urls import path urls = super().get_urls() urls += [ path( "generate", admin_site.admin_view(self.my_view), name="generate", ) ] return urls def my_view(self, request): print(request.data) return HttpResponse("Hello!") admin_site = MyAdminSite() The url is successfully registered: print(admin_site.get_urls()) [ ..., ..., <URLPattern 'generate' [name='generate']>] # <-- here! Now in my django-crispy-form, I need to add a form action for multiple submit buttons. The library does not allow multiple form actions to be set, so I had to disable the form tag and add a new one manually: class PromptForm(forms.ModelForm): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super().__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.helper = FormHelper() # django-crispy-forms self.helper.form_method = 'post' self.helper.form_tag = False # <-- disable form_tag # Form layout self.helper.layout = Layout( # Add new form_tag HTML("""<form action="{% url 'admin:generate' %}"><input type="submit" class="btn btn-success" value="generate"></form>"""), ) Issue Neither {% url 'generate' %} nor {% url 'admin:generate' %} are able to reverse match the new url: `django.urls.exceptions.NoReverseMatch: Reverse for 'generate' not found. 'generate' is not a valid view function or pattern name. -
Django can't acces media files, 404 Page not found
I recently started to learn Django but I'm still struggeling with accessing media files. My settings.py file includes the following: STATIC_URL = '/static/' MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media') MEDIA_URL = '/media/ My urls.py in the project directory contains the following. urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls), path('', include('store.urls')) ] if st.DEBUG: urlpatterns += django_Static(st.MEDIA_URL, document_root=st.MEDIA_ROOT) When I then try to load an image via a GET request I get the following message: " Page not found (404) ... Using the URLconf defined in ecommerce_project.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order: admin/ [name='store_homepage'] ^media/(?P<path>.*)$ The current path, media/product_pictures/256132756_922283745365869_1303861998719790800_n.jpg, matched the last one. I really don't know what to do since I tried everything. Has someone also stumbled accross this problem? -
limit number of foreign key using Django CheckConstraint
I am using Django 4.1 and Postgresql and as stated in their documentation CheckConstraint accept Q object and Expression. Based on https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/31646, I thought my solution would work, but when calling makemigrations nothing happens (Count inherit from Func). Goal: I would like to limit the number of Messages per Discussion. I did see a solution using a validators on the ForeignKey field but it is not robust (see Limit number of foreign keys). I would prefer not to have to create a SQL function and calling it (would like a Django solution only). from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError from django.db import models from django.db.models.lookups import IntegerLessThan class Discussion(models.Model): MAX_MESSAGES = 10 class Message(models.Model): discussion = models.ForeignKey( "discussion.Discussion", models.CASCADE, related_name="messages", ) constraints = [ models.CheckConstraint( name="limit_discussion_messages", check=IntegerLessThan( models.Count("discussion", filter=models.Q(discussion=models.F("discussion"))), models.Value(Discussion.MAX_MESSAGES), ), ), ] -

Django wrong imagefield.path
i have a model with an image field like this app_icon = models.ImageField(upload_to='icons/') the project has 'uploads' as media folder, which has subfolders, including 'icons'. The image is correctly uploaded to the 'icons' subfolder but when i try to access it using self.app_icon.path it returns .../uploads/imagename.jpg instead of .../uploads/icons/imagename.jpg so i get file not found error. Even the url doesn't include the 'icons' subfolder my settings: MEDIA_URL = '/uploads/' MEDIA_ROOT = BASE_DIR / 'uploads/' i can't find any answer to this problem, which seems so random to me. -

How to integrate scikit-ExSTraCS with my Django application
I'd like to use https://github.com/UrbsLab/scikit-ExSTraCS's features in my application, but I've discovered that it lacks REST interfaces. This is okay because I can easily create Django REST APIs for scikit-ExSTraCS' classes, but I'm hoping someone here has some experience with this or knows of a package that already handles it. -

Django keeps logging me out from dev server when changing my codebase
In my Django app I have a lot of if request.user.is_authenticated logic and once I change some code other than in templates (like forms, models, views, etc.) I get logged out from the development server which makes it quite annoying to always have to re-login in the frontend to test my prior code changes again. Is there any way to stay logged in when in Debug = True (or other) mode? # SECURITY WARNING: don't run with debug turned on in production! DEBUG = os.getenv("DEBUG", "False") == "True" # Add s.th. here to keep me logged in? -
django-taggit similar_objects(): how to specify a model in the queryset
I use django-taggit on my site across several applications. The package uses a generic foreign key (by default), which allows it to work with many models, which is very convenient when working with tags and displaying different objects filtered by certain tags. But this default behaviour doesn't satisfy me when I try to find similar objects for example: # news/views.py class NewsDetailView(TagMixin, FormMixin, DetailView): model = News ... def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs) related_items = self.object.tags.similar_objects()[:4] context['related_items'] = related_items return context In this case, I want to select similar news, but instead I get similar objects of all types, including articles or shop goods. Please tell me how can I specify my model in this command: related_items = self.object.tags.similar_objects()[:4] I want it to be News only. -
How to display an image from an external API as part of a response in Django
I have an external API that returns images and it requires a private key in order to access it. The content type it returns is 'image/jpeg'. I am creating an API with the Django Rest Framework that uses this API. I also have a model with some basic char entries, and I want to return both those model entries as well as the image in a response, with the goal of making AJAX calls to it in JS and displaying both the data and the image in HTML. I'm not exactly sure if I need to use Django forms? or if I can just make a call to the API in a plain js file hosted in my project? the latter would be ideal if I am able to send the image as part of the response... but ofcourse I don't want to expose the API key, which is part of the URL I am making a request to to get the image. I just want to essentially download the image and send it as a response. This is the current code I have been testing out: @api_view(['GET']) def random_image(request): response = requests.get('api url with secret key') if request.method == … -

Django signals weak=False
If I use Debug=false, the django signals stop working and I have to use week=false. I can't figure out why the default is week=true. I just figured out that it has something to do with the garbage collector. From the fact that I use week=false, does the garbage collector not run? Will the memory fill up with garbage over time and start a memory leak? Example use: @receiver(post_save, sender=sender, weak=False) def define_status(sender, instance, created, **kwargs): ..... -
django terminate adding any input to the database from the form
In an auction web. I'm trying to terminate adding any input (bids, comments and add to watchlist) by any user to the database if the owner of the product press on 'close ' button so I tried to implement this pseudo code: in views.py function listing: t = 1 if == 1: if owner clicks on the close button: ... t = 2 if the user adds a comment: ... if the user adds a bid: ... if user clicks on add to watchlist button: ... else: return message ('Auction has ended') I have implemented this code and the listing page accepted entries and inputs after the owner of the listing clicked on the 'close' button. I also tried to change the value of t to a boolean value ( t = True, if t == True, if user clicked: return t = False) but it didn't work. so what is the problem. def entry(request, name): enter = listing.objects.get(title = name) f= bids.objects.filter(product_id = enter) x = 0 z = "" last = None ended = None like = "k" l = 0 if request.method == 'POST' and request.POST.get("bid"): biddd = int(request.POST['bid']) user = request.user if biddd > x: bids.objects.create(bid= …
