Django, DRF: two similar models views, separate endpoints or not
There are two similar models as shown below. class ProductVideo(models.Model): ... class UserVideo(models.Model): ...

Celerybeat Multiple schedules of the same task
I got following Celery beat task which cleans 1000 items daily at 1 AM: from celery.schedules import crontab from .celery import app as celery_app celery_app.conf.beat_schedule['maintenance'] = { 'task': 'my_app.tasks.maintenance', 'schedule': crontab(hour=1, minute=0), 'args': (1000,) } I want to clean additional 5000 items every Sunday at 5PM.

Inconsistance between `request.user` and `request.session` in Django
I do understand that login() will attach User to request.session and request.user after authenticate() successfully validate credentials. I am wondering will there be any occasions where request.user becomes anonymous user and request.session still has User attached ? I encountered this myself. If answer to above is yes, then when request.user.is_authenticated == False, should we flush the existing session, and prompt for login again to avoid someone use previously stored session. or we can directly attach user in request.session to request.user to make it logged_in user. thanks for your insights. -

Django - implementation of last changes tracker in HTML file
I am looking for a solution that will allow me to create a section in my HTML file with the latest updates in my app. I checked some packages here on djangopackages.org but I am not quite sure which app should I use. The idea is that if there will be any article added or updated then in the latest updates section the information will appear automatically as: '5 new articles have been recently added' or '2 articles have been updated' or'3 users joined our website'. In total, I have 4 models (including the user model) in my Django app that I want to track and display updates in my HTML (homepage, TemplateView) file. What would you recommend? -

Unable to complete paypal transaction - Python Django - Was not able to redirect back to webapp to perform capture
We have implemented django oscar to include paypal recurring payment. On sandbox, everything works on well. Here is the flow we have implemented but can never get to step 3 and stuck in step 2 after "Agree & Continue" (which basically authorize the card). Call SetExpressCheckout, setting up the billing agreement in the request [L_BILLINGTYPE0=RecurringPayments]. Returns a token, which identifies the transaction, to the merchant. Redirect buyer's browser to: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_express-checkout appended with the token returned by SetExpressCheckout. Displays login page and allows buyer to select payment options and shipping address. <--- stuck here Redirect buyer's browser to returnURL passed to SetExpressCheckout if buyer agrees to payment description. Call CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile in the background (without further actions from the user). Returns ProfileID in CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile response for the successfully created profile (PROFILEID=I-1NNDL8LGNX35). Display successful transaction page (Thank you page). Listen to PayPal IPN notifications to trigger merchant's server logic for future successful/failed/canceled/suspended payments. So in step 2, when I click "Agree & Continue", it has a spinner processing, I can see then on my phone my credit card is charged. But then, nothing happens, it doesnt redirect, so it stays the same. When I click again "Agree & Continue", it then has "Sorry, … -

How to set html lang attribute in Django template?
I wrote a Django application that serves translated content for German users, and English content for everyone else. Currently I use a base template containing: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> Obviously this sets the wrong lang in case the content is served as German. Possibly I could try something like <html lang="{{ 'de' if request.LANGUAGE_CODE == 'de' else 'en' }}"> but this feels clumsy and hard to maintain in case more languages are added. What would be a simple way to set <html lang> to the actual language served? -

Django - Add classes to inline only if qs len is more than 5
For TaskInline I'd like to display it collapsed if there are more than 5 elements: from django.contrib import admin from django.contrib.auth.models import User from django.db import models class Task(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=50) description = models.TextField() performer = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) class TaskInline(admin.TabularInline): model = Task def get_queryset(self, request): qs = super().get_queryset(request) if len(qs) > 5: self.classes = 'collapse', return qs @admin.register(User) class UserAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): inlines = TaskInline, But trick that is implemented in get_queryset method seems not working (it seems this method selects all the items of Task model). Where should I compare len to add classes? -

Django: Using a nested TextChoice class values in a Meta class
I used to declare TextChoices classes inside the model class like this: class Order(models.Model): class OrderStatusChoices(models.TextChoices): NEW = 'NEW' CLOSED = 'CLOSED' CANCELLED = 'CANCELLED' status = models.CharField(choices=OrderStatusChoices.choices, max_length=9) In this case, I was instantiating the class as: from models import Order order = Order(status=Order.OrderStatusChoices.NEW) Now I need to use the TextChoices values in the Meta class to check the database constraint: class Order(models.Model): class OrderStatusChoices(models.TextChoices): NEW = 'NEW' CLOSED = 'CLOSED' CANCELLED = 'CANCELLED' status = models.CharField(choices=OrderStatusChoices.choices, max_length=9) class Meta: constraints = [ models.CheckConstraint( name='%(app_label)s_%(class)s_status_valid', check=models.Q(status__in=OrderStatusChoices.values) ) ] However, if the status class is nested within the order class, the textchoice cannot be referenced (Unresolved reference 'OrderStatusChoices' ). This can be solved by taking the status class out of the order class: class OrderStatusChoices(models.TextChoices): NEW = 'NEW' CLOSED = 'CLOSED' CANCELLED = 'CANCELLED' class Order(models.Model): status = models.CharField(choices=OrderStatusChoices.choices, max_length=9) class Meta: constraints = [ models.CheckConstraint( name='%(app_label)s_%(class)s_status_valid', check=models.Q(status__in=OrderStatusChoices.values) ) ] But this does not make it very convenient to import (for me, maybe I'm wrong and this is normal) the order model without status textchoice and in order to create an instance of the order class, you need to import both the order model and the status textchoice: from models … -
