How I can concat strings in Django template?
I'm trying to localize a component with get_current_language and I need to pass the language_code inside a filter: {% get_current_language as LANGUAGE_CODE %} {{ field|set_data:'flatpickr:{"locale": LANGUAGE_CODE}' }} but set_data argument is a string. How I can achieve this? -
TemplateDoesNotExist on Django Site
I am currently coding a webpage using django but there when I run python server, a TemplateDoesNotExist error pops up. Here are my template Django settings: DEBUG = True ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['*'] TEMPLATES = [ { 'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates', 'DIRS': [], 'APP_DIRS': True, 'OPTIONS': { 'context_processors': [ 'django.template.context_processors.debug', 'django.template.context_processors.request', 'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth', 'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages', ], }, }, ] WSGI_APPLICATION = 'wiki2.wsgi.application' How do I fix this? -
Does 'Docker-compose build' run pip as root?
I ran docker-compose build as a non-root user from the terminal of my IDE with activated virtual environment. When building the service relative to my Django app, and installing requirements.txt I got the red message warning about the well known dangers of running pip as root, immediately followed by pip installing everything in requirements.txt. Is it safe and normal behavior because it is in a container? I'm new to orchestrator so I'm asking for confirmation. -
Django model filter elements
I have four models as follows: class modelA(models.Model): name = models.CharField(...) class modelB(models.Model): date = models.DateTimeField(...) A = models.ForeignKey(modelA, ...) class modelC(models.Model): email = models.CharField(...) B = models.ForeignKey(modelB, ...) class modelD(models.Model): uid = models.CharField(...) C = models.ForeignKey(modelC) Given modelA element id, I have to filter modelD elements based on that id. But I am not sure about how to do that. I appreciate any ideas! -
Making my Django Endpoint Restricted so that only I can access it
I'm very new to websites. I'm trying to process payments using Stripe in a JS file, and this file is static meaning it is public. I'm trying to take the part that makes an API request with a secret key and move it to the backend and then call the backend to receive the response that comes from using the secret key. However, currently any person is able to make the request, which defeats the purpose of what I am doing. def payment(request): return render(request, 'interface/about.html') def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs): return(HttpResponse("laterthere")) urls.py path('payment', views.payment, name="payment") JS: var resp1 = await fetch('https://url.com/payment', { method: 'GET' }); Is there any way to do this? If suggesting a better direction to go in please do provide resources. -

Django - Get input of Radio buttons in a loop
I need a page for absence control, where there are looped over all users and with each user is displayed 3 radio buttons : present, absent and allowed_absent. After it is filled in for each user, it should be submitted.

Django channel consumer sending message twice to the frontend
I'm trying to build a simple chat application using django channels using simple websocket. it is working fine but when i'm sending message to other user it is appearing twice on both end I think consumer chat method is calling twice. i can't figure out how to solve this issue! group send function I think doing this it is echoing back its user and sending that particular message to other user as well Here is the consumer class ChatConsumer(WebsocketConsumer): def fetch_messages(self, data): room_name = data['room_name'] room = Room.objects.filter(room_name=room_name).first() sender = data['from'] receiver = data['to'] sender = User.objects.filter(username=sender)[0] receiver = User.objects.filter(username=receiver)[0] messages = Message.objects.fetch_last_10_messages(room.room_name,sender.id,receiver.id) content = { 'command': 'messages', 'messages': self.messages_to_json(messages) } self.send_message(content) def new_message(self, data): room_name = data['room_name'] room = Room.objects.filter(room_name=room_name).first() sender = data['from'] receiver = data['to'] sender = User.objects.filter(username=sender)[0] receiver = User.objects.filter(username=receiver)[0] message = Message.objects.create( sender=sender, receiver=receiver, room=room, content=data['message']) content = { 'command': 'new_message', 'message': self.message_to_json(message) } return self.send_chat_message(content) def messages_to_json(self, messages): result = [] for message in messages: result.append(self.message_to_json(message)) return result def message_to_json(self, message): return { 'sender': message.sender.username, 'content': message.content, 'timestamp': str(message.timestamp) } commands = { 'fetch_messages': fetch_messages, 'new_message': new_message } def connect(self): me = self.scope['user'] other_username = self.scope['url_route']['kwargs']['username'] other_user = User.objects.get(username=other_username) room = Room.objects.get_or_create_personal_room(me, other_user) self.room_name = … -
Django doesn't print array variable in template
In my django controller function I get "annotations" of a specific web server from database. For all annotations I build annotationsId, annotationsCode, annotationsName array.

How do I fully authenticate a test user in my test cases with django-two-factor-auth to access OTPRequiredMixin views?
I'm trying to write test cases for my class views that are secure behind django-two-factor-auth OTPRequiredMixin. I'm not sure how to write the setUp function to fully authenticate the user through OTP. I've tried self.client.force_login() but when I try to browse to that url in my test function, I am landing on the "Permission Denied" page that prompts to enable two-factor authentication for the user, instead of the expected url. Permission DeniedThe page you requested, enforces users to verify using two-factor authentication for security reasons. You need to enable these security features in order to access this page.Two-factor authentication is not enabled for your account. Enable two-factor authentication for enhanced account security. Here's an example of one of the class views: class ProjectCreateView(OTPRequiredMixin, CreateView): model = Project template_name = 'project_create.html' fields = ['name', 'description'] And here's an example of my setup and a test: class ProjectTestCase(TestCase): def setUp(self): self.user = get_user_model().objects.create( username='jsmith', first_name='John', last_name='Smith', email='johnsmith@test.com', password='secure' ) [...] self.client.force_login(self.user) def test_project_create(self): response = self.client.post( '/project/create/', {'name': 'Test Project', 'description': 'A basic test project'} ) self.assertEqual(response.status_code, 200) Thanks in advance for your insight and wisdom! -
Is there a way to pass a secret Heroku environment variable in my Django project to a static Javascript file?
I don't have a lot of website experience. I'm trying to get my site up and running. I have a secret environment variable on my Heroku app that I want to pass into a static file. Is there a way to do this securely? I've decided I don't care if bad actors can see the file, I just don't want them seeing the key. -
Second fetch in sequence of two doesn't seem to have access to data returned from first fetch
I want to query a (django) server for an (RESTful) API schema, then use that schema for subsequent list and CRUD operations as may be defined therein. I'm using OpenAPI to autogenerate the schema, server-side. Trying to get a client-side API working was taking too long, so I switched to just using fetch instead. The first fetch hits the endpoint that serves the API schema, and works fine. The problem arises when I try to dereference a string within the returned schema in my second fetch call - this one to retrieve a list of "widget" objects from my server. I found a way past this by simply assigning the string I needed to another const within the same function, then passing this to the second fetch. This works, but I don't understand why I need to do this to be able to use data from the first call. I'm able to reference it by console.logging it. I can see it using the browser's debug console. But, for whatever reason, a reference to anything in the object returned by the first fetch becomes undefined in the second (or any subsequent?) fetch. Can someone who understands javascript internals well explain this, … -

Graph_helper.py Send on behalf of another user - Django
I have the following code (graph_helper.py), which I copied when completing the Microsoft Graph - Django. The create_event and create_online_event functions works fine for the logged in user. What I ideally need is rather than the calendar events coming from the logged in user, they come from another shared mailbox they have access to. I have tried adding into additional properties including organiser and isOrganiser but these didnt work. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/event?view=graph-rest-1.0 I also tried editing the below requests.post in the create_events to include the calendar id I want the invites to come from but still no luck. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/outlook-create-event-in-shared-delegated-calendar?tabs=http#code-try-0 requests.post('{0}/me/events'.format(graph_url), headers=headers, data=json.dumps(new_event)) Appreciate any help I can get with this issue.

How to make a for loop break on counter in jinja2?
How can I make the for product in products loop break after the if condition is fulfilled 3 times. I have been trying to set up a counter but that isn't working... because set is not accepted inside of for loops. Though testing it out a bit more it isn't being accepted anywhere. When I use set it throws this exception or a variation of it: Invalid block tag on line 11: 'set', expected 'endblock'. Did you forget to register or load this tag? I am aware that I should put all the logic I'm using jinja2 for inside of the view and then pass it through the dictionary but it would take too much time to research everything about that and i just want to be done with this. Honestly I am really tired it is 6am and idk what to do.

Django Vs Laravel for Web Development
I saw this But I am still confused. I started web development with vanilla PHP and was recently informed about a Python framework Django. So my question is, what's the point and benefit of using Django, PHP is designed directly to plug into a web page, whereas Django goes around the bush, and if you prefer a framework, there is Laravel, but for some reason, PHP is getting disrespected by developers. I understand that Python might be a more simple syntax, so easier to write and read, but is there anything else? And is worth learning Python, just for making web apps? Please trow your opinion and your advice will be very appreciated. Thanks -
