Configure IFC.js with webpack
I am running a django application and I want to use frontend stack for which I need a bundler. I am new to bundlers, but I decided to go with webpack and I am trying to configure IFC.js (https://ifcjs.github.io/info/docs/Hello%20world), following the hello world tutorial but using webpack. Right now I am running into the error: Field 'browser' doesn't contain a valid alias configuration but I am also unsure about the general configuration of my webpack. My config-file: const path = require("path") module.exports = { mode: "development", entry: { app: "/src/index.ifc.js" }, watch: true, devtool: "source-map", output: { filename: "[name].bundle.js", path: path.resolve(__dirname, "dist") }, module: { rules: [ { test: /\.ifc.js$/, exclude: /node_modules/, } ] }, resolve: { extensions: [ ".ifc.js" ] } I think what this means is that all files with the suffix .ifc.js will be compiled when running webpack. I can get it to work using a simple alert statement in the index.ifc.js file. It compiles it to the dist-directory and the JS-code executes. But when I copy the code from the hello-world tutorial I get: Field 'browser' doesn't contain a valid alias configuration /Users/myuser/projectfolder/myproject/myapp/static/node_modules/web-ifc-three/IFCLoader doesn't exist The code I am using copied from the tutorial: import { … -

Inherinting Django SetUpTestData method called for each child
Inheriting a mother class make its classmethod setUpTestData called for each child class. This is what I excepted but not what I want. Here is a minimalist example from django.test import TestCase class ParentClass(TestCase): @classmethod def setUpTestData(cls): cls.parent_attr = "parent value" print("ParentClass.setUpTestData called") # this is called twice class TestChild1(ParentClass): @classmethod def setUpTestData(cls): super(TestChild1, cls).setUpTestData() cls.child_attr = "child value 1" def test_child(self): self.assertEqual(self.parent_attr, "parent value") self.assertEqual(self.child_attr, "child value 1") class TestChild2(ParentClass): @classmethod def setUpTestData(cls): super(TestChild2, cls).setUpTestData() cls.child_attr = "child value 2" def test_child(self): self.assertEqual(self.parent_attr, "parent value") self.assertEqual(self.child_attr, "child value 2") $ python manage.py test accounts.tests.test_test Creating test database for alias 'default'...

Django how to print datetimefield with timezone
I'm trying to print my datetime fields with the time zone i.e like this 2022-03-28T00:00:00+05:30 My serializer like this class ChallengeReadSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): start_date = serializers.DateTimeField(format='iso-8601') class Meta: model = models.Challenge fields = [ "start_date", ] Prints this 2022-03-23T03:16:00Z When I modify the serializer like this class ChallengeReadSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): start_date = serializers.SerializerMethodField() class Meta: model = models.Challenge fields = [ "start_date", ] def get_start_date(self, obj): return obj.start_date.isoformat() It prints 2022-03-28T00:00:00+05:30, which is what I want.

Django Templates check if string is "\t"
I am extending a selection form for csv delimiters and wanted to add the option for the tab character. <option value="&#9;" {% if settings.csvImportDelimiter == '&#9;' %} selected {% endif %}>Tab</option> The part that is not working is {% if settings.csvImportDelimiter == '&#9;' %}. I tried putting '\t' instead of ' ' without success. Is there a different syntax to this? I looked at the both Jinja and Django template docs but did not find anything on these control symbols. -
Django cache isolation when running tests in parallel
When I run tests in parallel, I get random failures because one test interferes with the cache of another test. I can work around the problem with @override_settings( CACHES={ "default": { "BACKEND": "django.core.cache.backends.locmem.LocMemCache", "LOCATION": "[random_string]", } }, ) Actually to make that smaller I created a @isolate_cache decorator that is a wrapper around override_settings. But still I need to go and decorate a large number of test cases. This is error prone, because, as I said, the failures are random. I might run the test suite 100 times without error and think that everything is OK, but I still might have forgotten to decorate a test case, and at some point it will fail randomly. I've also thought about creating my own TestCase subclass and use only that for all my test cases. This presents a similar problem: at some point someone would inherit from django.test.TestCase out of habit, and it might not fail for a long time. Besides, some of my tests inherit from rest_framework.test.APITestCase (or other classes), so there isn't a single test case subclass. Is there any way to tell Django to run each test case in an isolated section of the cache once and for all? -
Django: How to create some variable in model based on the foreign key data?
I am new to Django and right now I am working on my first project: sits reservation system for some cinema. For this I have created 3 models: Movie, Hall and Event. Hall generates sits map as array. class Hall(models.Model): HALL_NAME = ( ('A', 'Hall A'), ('B', 'Hall B'), ('C', 'Hall C') ) hall_name = models.CharField(choices=HALL_NAME, max_length=30) hall_structure = models.CharField(max_length=10000, default=generate_sits(hall_name)) @property def get_sits(self): if self.hall_name == 'A': return generate_sits('A') if self.hall_name == 'Hall B': return generate_sits('B') if self.hall_name == 'Hall C': return generate_sits('C') else: return "lol" def __str__(self): return f'{self.hall_name}' After that i would like to create a variable for Event model, which takes the array structure of the sits, turns it into dictionary (Example ['A1': 'empty', 'A2': 'empty', ...] ). I want this variable to be overwritten in the future, when someone should book a sit on the vebsite (['A1': 'reserved']). Here is my Event model: class Event(models.Model): EVENT_DAYS = ( ('mon', 'Monday'), ('tu', 'Tuesday'), ('we', 'Wednesday'), ('th', 'Thursday'), ('fr', 'Friday'), ) EVENT_TIME_SLOT = ( ('10', '10:00'), ('13', '13:30'), ('17', '17:00'), ('20', '20:30'), ('00', '00:00'), ) EVENT_TYPE = ( ('2d', '2D'), ('3d', '3D'), ) end_default = "for this Event was assigned yet" days_default = "No day " time_default … -
What is the best way to send and fetch data periodically from Django backend to React frontend?
I'm making a web visualization app that needs to display data in real-time. I have a Python SDK that only requests data (using request library from python) directly from our database using the API provided and returns a response in JSON format. I'm using Django version 3.2 and have created a Django app and a React app version 17.0.2 in the same directory. What I did was get the data in my views.py using the Python SDK and then using the Django Rest Framework, created an API from it without using serialization. Then in the front-end (React), I fetched the data in the DRF API using Axios. So far, it's working just fine. However, I noticed that I need to restart my local Django server and refresh the page first before the latest/updated data gets reflected in my visualization. What I need is for the back-end to send the latest data to the front-end in real-time or for the front-end to request/fetch the latest data periodically from the back-end - whichever is better in terms of performance. I'm new to using DRF in the backend and Django+React as the front-end. Someone suggested looking into promises in Python but I'm not … -
How to give access to different object of a model to different users in django
I am doing an online classroom project in Django where I created a model named course which is accessible by teachers. Now I am trying to add students in a particular class by inviting students or students can enroll using "clasroom_id"(a unique field I used in the model).

How to prevent django migrations from running?
My team frequently uses the production DB for testing new changes and on more than one occasion migrations have been created and applied before being code reviewed, creating issues in production. There are so many things wrong with this situation, but I'm hoping to at least protect our prod DB by blocking migrations based on the state of an environment variable. Is this possible? -
How to know which django middlewares are asynchronous enabled and which are not?
To see what middleware Django has to adapt, you can turn on debug logging for the django. request logger and look for log messages about “Synchronous middleware … adapted” .
