Convert from dash html to regular html string
I've been using plotly to generate a few charts and used dash to render them on a simple heroku server. Now I am moving the dash component to Django, I have a very nice html layout generated with dash function, which is composed of some charts and some styling with it. I am trying to read it as html so that I can use a function in view to call the page. When I checked the layout data type, it is dash.html.Div.Div rather than html, or string of "html". I am wondering if I can convert it directly into HTML, so that I can render it like normal html code. Thanks -
{% block contents %} conditional on a variable Django template inheritance
I am using Django's template inheritance from a base file called base.html. All of my apps, except one, require that {% block contents %} {% endblock %} is present in that file, which is problematic. I am trying to find away to make the inclusion {% block contents %} {% endblock %} conditional on a variable. What I have so far tried in base.html: {% if some_variable %} {% block contents %} {% endblock %} {% endif %} But that doesn't seem to work. I have also tried: {% if some_variable %} {% with 'base_block_content.html' as path %} {% include path %} {% endwith %} {% endif %} base_block_content.html being simply: ''' {% block contents %} {% endblock %} ''' But that doesn't work either. My only other option is to write a completely separate base.html for the one app, which doesn't quite fit in with the 'DRY' concept. -
How to pass tuple with one element as param in sql query Python?
How can I pass tuple with only one element as param in sql query Python? I have tried this solution suggested here: imploding a list for use in a python MySQLDB IN clause ids = [(UUID('1232a4df-5849-46c2-8c76-74fe74168d82'),)] # list of ids cursor.execute(''' SELECT ... WHERE id IN %(ids)s AND created_at > %(start_dt)s ''', { 'ids': tuple(ids), 'start_dt': '2019-10-31 00:00:00' }) but this solution does not work in python 3 and mysql-connector-python 8.0.21. I get this error: An error "Python tuple cannot be converted to MySQL type" is returned. -

How do I configure my media files to upload on AWS S3 Bucket in Django?
I've created a Blogging App using Django and Heroku-Postgres as Database. The user uploaded images gets removed in Heroku-Postgres after redeployment I think and it just disappears from the website.

Bootstrap button doesn't display properly in django form
EDIT: Just realized how bloated this question is and how poorly formated my html. Sorry I didn't catch it before posting. Working on fixing it now So, as you can probably see in the images, I'm having trouble getting a bootstrap button to display in my Django template properly.

Why is only some context data available in django template?
I'm having trouble accessing some of the context data in a django template, probably due to a basic misunderstanding on my part. Please see abbreviated code below. My view is: class UserCourseListView(LoginRequiredMixin, generic.ListView): model = CustomUser template_name = 'account/course/list.html' context_object_name = 'puser_course_list' def get_queryset(self): return CustomUser.objects.filter(username=self.request.user.username) My model is: class CustomUser(AbstractUser): email = models.EmailField(max_length=254, blank=False,) course = models.ManyToManyField(Course, related_name="course", blank=True) firstname = models.TextField(max_length=254, blank=True ) surname = models.TextField(max_length=254, blank=True ) nickname = models.TextField(max_length=254, blank=True ) def __str__(self): return str(self.id) def get_absolute_url(self): return reverse('patient_user_detail', args=[str(self.id)]) And template is: {% for pcourse in puser_course_list %} <dt>{{ pcourse.courses_joined.all }}</dt> <dt>{{ pcourse.id }}</dt> <dt>{{ pcourse.username }}</dt> <dt>{{ pcourse.firstname }}</dt> <dt>{{ pcourse.surname }}</dt> {% endfor %} I am able to acces the user id, username and retrieve a queryset from a related model (using related name 'courses_joined'), but can't retrieve the firstname and surname? Any thoughts or help would be most appreciated. I'm assuming a context processor isn't required in this scenario as all of the data should be in the context_object? -
How to limit the number of threads to one

What 'namespace' is used for in Django urls?
I have namespace parameter in the urls.py of project, like this: path('blog/', include('blog.urls', namespace='blog')), And then I have app_name = blog in the urls.py of the blog application.

Using HTML if statements to return results

Please critique my Django app (for entry level resume)
Link: https://coleabell05.pythonanywhere.com/home/ Entry level Python/Django oriented programmer here and I just finished a sort of first draft of a simple inventory app linked above I'm planning to use on my resume, launched on pythonanywhere. If anyone has some time, would you mind giving it a look? Hoping for advice on what additional functionality I could work on adding and how I could make it more appealing to recruiters? Also if its structure is confusing at all and what I could change to clarify it's function. As it stands now, it's intended to be a functioning register and inventory manager for a pizzeria. The user makes an account and then has the power to add or delete entrees and ingredients to the kitchen as well as close the register for the day and make purchases. Thanks for any help! -
django create an api
Issue hi there, my application are almost frontend, what I meant by that, apps such as json formatter, codePen, jsFiddle and some online graphers, I wrote a lot of javascript to achieve a frontend interactive application. to be more focused, I have specific views, let's say, a markdown editor, that you can type from left, and outlook appearance render to right. here, it's a bit intricate, some user cases, when in a form, that the user can input raw text into a textarea, and it's markdown supported, therefore, I need to write a button, see in editor, which takes all user's current input text, and open a new tab with the markdown editor. The difficulty of this, is that those raw text do not need to be saved, the user only need to see the rendered effect, but django only works with model. I thought of many ways: rest framework api view Ajax POST view abstract model but I failed to make it work. Code template <!-- some code above --> {% comment %} form.content returns a string {% endcomment %} {{ form.content }} <button>see in editor</button> <!-- some code below --> javascript const content = document.querySelector('#id_content'); const button = … -

Django UpdateView with reverse foreign key
I am using UpdateView, which is very cool abstraction and makes it very easy to update existing Models. I however want to include into this reverse foreign keys (kinda similar to inline admins). There is also inlineformset_factory, which helps creating this kind of reverse foreign key formsets. Of course I can handle all this manually (modelform and then each formset). But I'd like to put all those forms together and abstract this functionality into a view so that I then only specify the model, fields (same as in UpdateView), but also those reverse foreign keys. Is there a view for this or do I have to create my own? Any kind of experience with this would be appreciated. -
How to parse the "src" of image tag in Django textfield?
So I have code in my HTML template like this <div class="blog-content"> {{post.text|safe|linebreaks}} <p><img src="{{ image_dict.1.url }}" alt=""></p> </div> This above renders the image fine in HTML. My view is like this def post_detail(request, slug): post = BlogPost.objects.get(slug=slug) images = post.images.all() image_dict = {} for image in images: image_dict[image.image_order] = image.image print(image.image) return render(request, 'blog/post_detail.html', { 'post': post, 'images': images, 'image_dict': image_dict, }) Basically I'm setting it up so that I can render the images via {{image_dict.image_order.url}} But I wanna render the images as per following to associate them with each paragraph of text like so Text in Django TextField However, while the code within the template evaluates to the image url, for example say for an image with order '1' <p><img src="{{ image_dict.1.url }}" alt=""></p> becomes <p><img src="/media/images/codewithlewis.png" alt=""></p> The exact same code I typed in django's textfield (as attached in above image) remains like <p><img src="{{ image_dict.1.url }}" alt=""></p> within HTML and nothing gets rendered of course. A screen shot of this: I'm fairly new to Django but I feel like I have tried everything. How might I go about fixing this? Thank you. -
