Best practices for managing Django auth using sessions and token based methods in same project
I'm trying to add API support via django-rest-framework for all the views in my project. Assume that all the views return a JSON response and are function based. How can I best handle this situation without re-writing a lot of code? Here is what I have at the moment: views.py @login_required @require_POST def get_data(request): #.... core logic .... return JsonResponse({'msg': '<...>'},status=200) @api_view(['POST']) @authentication_classes([TokenAuthentication]) @permission_classes([IsAuthenticated]) def api_get_data(request): return get_data(request) urls.py url(r'^get_data/$', views.get_data, name='get_data'), url(r'^api/v1/get_data/$', views.api_get_data, name='api_get_data'), I'm using CSRFmiddleware, so I get CSRF blanket protection for all views. Is there a better approach than the above to achieve/ensure: REST API calls work without CORS/CSRF token Browser-based calls work only with CORS/CSTF token I'd appreciate any help or suggestions on how to design/organize the project for this use case. -

Using Javascript to parse Django Data in Leaflet Maps
Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me figure this problem out. I am trying to add addresses from my Django database into a Javascript which will convert the addresses to long/lat coordinates, and thus allowing me to use those new coordinates as markers on a leaflet map. Currently I have the map loaded in. <body> <div id="map"></div> <script> var map = L.map('map').setView([37.116386, -98.299591], 5); L.tileLayer('https://api.maptiler.com/maps/basic-v2/256/{z}/{x}/{y}.png?key=APIKEY', { attributions: '<a href="https://www.maptiler.com/copyright/" target="_blank">&copy; MapTiler</a> <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright" target="_blank">&copy; OpenStreetMap contributors</a>' }).addTo(map) var marker = L.marker([37.116386, -98.299591]).addTo(map); </script> </body> Basically I want to replace the marker values with the value I render from the address provided in Django that I would filter through. {% for address in addresses %} <a>{{address.addresses}}</a> {% endfor %} If I were to filter say the business associated with the address, I would want it to render that marker for that specific business address. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. -
Why are my converted Markdown HTML tags returned as text?
A function in my views.py file converts Markdown files and returns the HTML to another function which is used to show the current entry (entry()).

InconsistentMigrationHistory with devstack make dev.provision command
I followed this guide All of the services can be run by following the steps below. For analyticstack, follow Getting Started on Analytics_. NOTE: Since a Docker-based devstack runs many containers, you should configure Docker with a sufficient amount of resources. We find that configuring Docker for Mac_ with a minimum of 2 CPUs and 6GB of memory works well. Install the requirements inside of a Python virtualenv_. .. code:: sh make requirements The Docker Compose file mounts a host volume for each service's executing code. The host directory defaults to be a sibling of this directory. For example, if this repo is cloned to ~/workspace/devstack, host volumes will be expected in ~/workspace/course-discovery, ~/workspace/ecommerce, etc. These repos can be cloned with the command below. .. code:: sh make dev.clone You may customize where the local repositories are found by setting the DEVSTACK_WORKSPACE environment variable. Be sure to share the cloned directories in the Docker -> Preferences... -> File Sharing box. Run the provision command, if you haven't already, to configure the various services with superusers (for development without the auth service) and tenants (for multi-tenancy). NOTE: When running the provision command, databases for ecommerce and edxapp will be dropped and … -

Simple password login/logout using django and session storage. Stay logged in not working
I am trying to make a password protected page in a website using django. There is no need for any username, just a user to enter a password to gain access. That's fine, but I've got a checkbox so that they can choose to stay logged in for the session, but then on the actual protected page itself, a logout button should they wish to. My idea is to set a session variable when submitting the log in form if the box is checked, check for that variable at the start of the function to go straight to the page if it exists on revisiting and to delete the variable and return to login page if logout is pressed. However I can't make it work, I am trying all sorts of syntaxes.. does it want the session variable to be a dictionary? I'm quite a novice and not very good at knowing syntax. If someone could look at my functions and help I'd be very grateful. def investors(request): """ A view show the investor login page (or investors page if a correct password is in session) and load the investors page if a correct password is entered.
