Adjust number of fields of the form based on the argument in the view
I have a form with 4 fields. class data_collect_form(forms.Form): data_entry1 = forms.IntegerField(widget = forms.NumberInput(attrs={"class":"form-control","initial":0})) data_entry2 = forms.IntegerField(widget = forms.NumberInput(attrs={"class":"form-control","initial":0}) data_entry3 = forms.IntegerField(widget = forms.NumberInput(attrs={"class":"form-control","initial":0}) data_entry4 = forms.IntegerField(widget = forms.NumberInput(attrs={"class":"form-control","initial":0})) Based on the argument "number_of_fields" in the view, I would like to delete last fields of this form. Here is the view: def add_submission(request, number_of_fields ): #delete number of fields according to number_of_fields argument if request.method == 'POST': form2 = data_collect_form(request.POST) else: form2 = data_collect_form() return render(request, 'main/second.html',{"form2":form2) I am sure it should be possible with the __init__ method, but I do not have understanding on writing it correctly. -

Django Rest API login using multiple password
I have one type of login idea, One single User has multiple Accounts (OneToOne or Foreign Key). To save UserEmail I use the default User table. UserID is PrimaryKey on the User table. In the Account table, Account__UserID is ForeignKey assigned to the User table. Now Account table AccountID PrimaryKey is assigned as ForeignKey for other tables(e.g: Transaction table have Transaction ID, AccountID, TransactionAmount. In Transaction table AccountID ForeignKey of Account table). When the user login by using the User table UserPassword. The user gets a list of Account table data. Account table PrimaryKey AccountID as ForeignKey for Transaction table, so users now get List Account & List Transaction data (It's default login method). When the user login by using the Account table AccountPassword. The user gets only one Account data. so now user get only one Account & List Transaction data (Account-based login) Now I did the default login method, it's an easy one. My question is, how I can do Account-based login. -
How to integrate Django API with XMPP server (ejabberd)
I'm currently working on a project where I'm using Django rest framework (DRF) for the backend. I need to implement one to one chat on this application. For this, I'm using XMPP server. I'm using ejabberd as XMPP server. Now, I need to create users in the ejabberd server using my API built with DRF. I need to achieve following things with my API: create new users in the ejabberd server create rooms in the ejabberd server fetch all the available rooms. The username will be fetched or retrived from the frontend. Is there any Python API client or Django API client to do this in the ejabberd server? Like how there is simple-xmpp for node js I have seen many python packages for this. some of them are, pyjabberd xmppy django-xmpp I'm not sure which one to use and I don't know whether is it possible to implement the above using any of these packages. -
Starting RabbitMQ and Celery for Django when launching Amazon Linux 2 instance on Elastic Beanstalk
I have been trying to setup celery to run tasks for my Django application on Amazon Linux 2. Everything worked on AL1, but things have changed. When I SSH into the instance I can get everything running properly - however the commands upon deployment do not work properly. I have tried this in my .platform/hooks/postdeploy directory: How to upgrade Django Celery App from Elastic Beanstalk Amazon Linux 1 to Amazon Linux 2 However that is not seeming to work. I have container commands to install epel, erlang and rabbitmq as the broker - they seem to work. After that answer, @Jota suggests: "No, ideally it should go in the Procfile file in the root of your repository. Just write celery_worker: celery worker -A my_django_app.settings.celery.app --concurrency=1 --loglevel=INFO -n worker.%%h. Super simple." However would I include the entire script in the procfile or just the line: celery_worker: celery worker -A my_django_app.settings.celery.app --concurrency=1 --loglevel=INFO -n worker.%%h This seems to suggests it would just be the command: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/platforms-linux-extend.html Then where would the script be if not in the procfile with the above line? -
Disabling a crispy form field from showing errors
I have a form to perform searching. As I am using the primary key to search, The searching process is completed successfully BUT I used to get an error below the text field saying Invoice number already exists.

Multidimensional dictionary losing lower levels after for loop in the django template
I have a dictionary of players and their inventory. There is a lower level dictionary for each item with the needed values. On the template I would like to do a for loop through each item and get their dictionaries. I will give a simplified example which hopefully makes it clearer to understand. Please let me know if there is something unclear about my question or examples. views.py players = {} players[1] = {} players[1].update({ 'avatar': user.avatar, 'username': user.username, players[1]['items'] = {} players[1]['items'][item.id] = {} players[1]['items'][item.id].update({ 'item_name' = item.name, 'item_value' = item.value, }) }) template.html {% for item in players.1.items %} {{item}} <!-- Gives me item ids --> {{item.1.item_name}} <!-- I would expect that to give me the value of item_name, instead I get nothing --> {% endfor %} {{players.1.items.1.item_name}} <!-- This works as it gives me the result I am expecting --> -

Django models normalization
having a simple ordinary model like this class Order(models.Model): open = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=8) high = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=8) low = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=8) close = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=8) time = models.DateTimeField() active = models.BooleanField(default=False) complete = models.BooleanField(default=False) works for my case but as there's only up to 1 active order at the same time, keeping it consistent is a challenge. don't wanna use transaction so the idea of separating active attribute would be a solution. I wondered if there's any better idea? for example, adding active as a database related attribute or something like a hook (believe me when I say I don't know if that's an option) -
How could I rework Django migrations without affecting database?
Basically I'm working on a project which already has a database managed with Django. I have noticed there are issues from the past. Duplicate migrations(eg.: 0011_auto_20210524_1314, 0011_auto_20210531_1728.), also there aren't all model fields recorded in migration history. The idea is that I would like to even split project into more apps than it is for now. So what I exactly would like to do is to go back to migration zero, delete all migrations and makemigrations again meanwhile models will be split into multiple apps. The issue is that database is containing a lot data and I can't affect them. Anyone have an idea how to reach it somehow "clean"? I've been thinking about --fake zero, delete migrations(Delete also from DB.), make new set of migrations, set flag managed = False and migrate so the migration would be "applied". I'm aware of inspectdb, but not sure if that would help due to moving models across multiple apps. Any other suggestions or thoughts please? -

I would like to return a 401 message if the user is not enabled. When I try returning a response instead of a token it doesn't work which I understand to be because the serializer is expecting the token.
