How can I set a logic like, "If a user order any product then the user will be able to give feedback just on that product"?
My motive is to set a logic like, a user only will be able to give a product review on that product he/she bought. I tried this below way but didn't work.

Django Rest Framework permissions class doesn't work properly
I'm trying to implement view with rest-framework, here it is: class IsOwnerOnlyPermissions(BasePermission): def has_object_permission(self, request, view, obj): print(obj.user_profile.user, request.user, obj.user_profile.user == request.user) print(request.user.groups, request.user.get_group_permissions()) return obj.user_profile.user == request.user class DjangoModelPermissionsWithRead(DjangoModelPermissions): perms_map = { 'GET': ['%(app_label)s.view_%(model_name)s'], 'OPTIONS': [], 'HEAD': [], 'POST': ['%(app_label)s.add_%(model_name)s'], 'PUT': ['%(app_label)s.change_%(model_name)s'], 'PATCH': ['%(app_label)s.change_%(model_name)s'], 'DELETE': ['%(app_label)s.delete_%(model_name)s'], } class DocumentsDetails(generics.RetrieveAPIView): queryset = Documents.objects.all() serializer_class = DocumentsSerializer # Can access only owner OR administrator/moderator permission_classes = [IsOwnerOnlyPermissions | DjangoModelPermissionsWithRead] But it doesn't work properly. I'm accessing it via Postman with user which doesn't have any permissions or groups (it's printing auth.Group.None set()) and it doesn't block access for me. I know, that I can check user permissions in my IsOwnerOnlyPermissions, but I want to use DjangoModelPermissions class for this. Are there any possibility to do this? -

Save large CSV data into Django database fast way
I am trying to upload extensive CSV data like 100k+ into the Django database table, I have created the model below and then made a save function to insert the data into the table. It takes a long time so I have written celery code to run this in the background so it doesn't timeout, But the saving data into the table is slower. Is there any way to make the saving faster? class Film(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=200) year = models.PositiveIntegerField() genre = models.ForeignKey(Genre, on_delete=models.CASCADE) def save_csv_to_db(): with open('films/films.csv') as file: reader = csv.reader(file) next(reader) for row in reader: print(row) genre, _ = Genre.objects.get_or_create(name=row[-1]) film = Film(title=row[0], year=row[2], genre=genre) film.save() -

Django pagination: EmptyPage: That page contains no results
When using Django CBV ListView with pagination, if I provide a page that is out of range, I get an error: I would like to have a different behaviour: to fallback to the last existing page if the provided page is out of range. I dug into Django source code paginator.py file and was surprised to find some code that does exactly this: def get_page(self, number): """ Return a valid page, even if the page argument isn't a number or isn't in range. """ try: number = self.validate_number(number) except PageNotAnInteger: number = 1 except EmptyPage: number = self.num_pages return self.page(number) However, it seems this code is never called by default using Pagination. What is the right way to deal with this? Should I make my own paginator by subclassing the Paginator class? Thanks. -

Docker Django 1.7 django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Application labels aren't unique, duplicates:foo?
I know this question is similar to many prior cases, for example: [1]: How to resolve "django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Application labels aren't unique, duplicates: foo" in Django 1.7? , but my issue was happened while I was running my Docker images. The Django application compiled successfully while I was on locally, but after I built my docker image and tried to run it. It shows " Application labels aren't unique: foo". I guess it might related to "Cache". I thought on local, there might be a cache, but no cache in docker image, so the compiler doesn't recognize the name of the label? That's the issue came from? -
Is it a bad practice to write an interactive step on a unit test?
From what I understand the main purpose of unit testing is to automatize testing. But consider the following example: I have an application that needs the user to read a QR code. When the user reads the QR code, the user is connected to another application. My application then checks if the user is connected. So, the only way that I think to test this scenario, is to when running the test case, display a QR code in the console so that the developer read it. But I think it's a bad practice. So my question is: "Is it a bad practice to write an interactive step on a unit test ?" Can anybody give me another way to test this scenario? Maybe there is some kind of tool that I dont know? I'm using django in this application. Thank you. -
How to properly join two Django query sets
I have the following logic implemented in an endpoint. def get(self, request, branchName, stack, resultType, buildNumberMIN, buildNumberMAX, format=None): try: # use ONE query to pull all data relevant_notes = Notes.objects.filter( branchName=branchName, stack=stack, resultType=resultType) # filter on the endpoint parameters (range of numbers) requested_range = relevant_notes.filter( buildNumber__gte=buildNumberMIN, buildNumber__lte=buildNumberMAX) # also pull latest note -- regardless of requested range latest_note = relevant_notes.latest('buildNumber') # join the notes return_set = requested_range | latest_note #serialize the data serializer = serializers.NoteSerializerWithJiraData( return_set, many=True) return Response(serializer.data) except Notes.DoesNotExist: return Response({"message": f"No notes found"}, status=404) Context: the logic is put simply, fetch a range of notes, but also include the latest note based on the url parameters. If the range of notes contains no data, still return latest. The issue I am facing is AttributeError at /api/v2/notes/Test/Test/Test/1/2/ 'Notes' object has no attribute '_known_related_objects' It is possible that it does not like that I add attempting to combine a query set with a single object... -
Accessing an object based on foreign key link in Django template

What I want to do is get my Sagas, Arcs and Clips through my API calls and then loop through each saga, getting the associated arcs for that saga and then loop through the arcs, getting the associated clips for that arcs, eg: Saga 1 has arcs 1,2,3 Arc 1 has clips 1 & 2 Arc 2 has clip 3 Arc 3 has clips 4 & 5 Saga 2 has arc 4,5.... But templates seem too limited to do this kind of querying, I can't do anything like get the list of associated arcs for a given saga or anything like that and being told: Because Django intentionally limits the amount of logic processing available in the template language, it is … -
Is there a way to add list in a django model class?

Why aren't failed Django queries more descriptive?

My custom save_user function in allauth does not work
I am trying to store the profile picture of the user when he is logging in with google.

It is to be noted that I used print to know if the code inside my modified function was called. But When I run the application I only get called1 and called4 printed in compiler but not called3 and called2. Note: I have already added ACCOUNT_ADAPTER in settings.py. -

Django NoModuleFoundError occurs only when adding a valid path to urls.py of my project folder
I have set up a Django project according to Victor Freitas' excellent post on production ready Django boilerplate here https://simpleisbetterthancomplex.com/tutorial/2021/06/27/how-to-start-a-production-ready-django-project.html It took me a day to refactor my whole project with 7 apps to fit into that boilerplate. All was fine and with everything working until I started developing my urls paths and templates. For some reason when adding a url path to main urls.py file within the main project folder Django fires me a NoModuleFoundError stating 'ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'categories' . Categories is the name of my app and it is properly installed in base.py config file.

In Django I use request.POST and return JSONResponse but the url shows HttpResponse error. I don't want to use render
I'm using Ajax to submit a POST. In views.py I have the following: def color(request): if(request.POST.get('result_data',False)): mylist= request.POST['mydata'] mylist= listt.split(",") request.session['var1'] = mylist[0] request.session['var2'] = mylist[1] return JsonResponse({'success':True}) In url I defined color/, so when I go to localhost:8000/color it shows error: "didn't return an HttpResponse". I should use instead return render(request,'app/color.html',{}) but I do not have a color.html file. I actually don't want to have one. All I want is to post a variable and use it as a session, so how can I avoid using render() and creating the html file? Thanks
