Nginx www redirect to non-www, browser says your connection to this site is not secure, Django
I can't connect to my site with www.example.com, it says 'not secure' only https://example.com works. At first I didn't set the DNS A record for www to redirect to my server ip so www.example.com wasn't working, but once I added the www A record it now shows Not Secure with the red https line through it when I go to www.example.com. Here is my myapp.conf from nginx sites-available: upstream myapp_app_server { server unix:/apps/myapp/myapp_env/run/gunicorn.sock fail_timeout=0; } server { listen 80; listen [::]:80; server_name example.com www.example.com; return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri; } server { listen 443 ssl http2; listen [::]:443 ssl http2; server_name example.com; ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com-0001/fullchain.pem; ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com-0001/privkey.pem; include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; client_max_body_size 4G; access_log /etc/nginx/logs/nginx-access-prod.log; error_log /etc/nginx/logs/nginx-error-prod.log; location = /favicon.ico { access_log off; log_not_found off; } location /static/ { alias /var/www/html/myapp/static/; } location /media/ { alias /var/www/html/myapp/media/; } location / { proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_redirect off; if (!-f $request_filename) { proxy_pass http://myapp_app_server; break; } if ( $host !~* ^(example.com|www.example.com)$ ) { return 444; } } } Here is my nginx.conf from etc/nginx: user www-data; worker_processes auto; pid /run/nginx.pid; include /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/*.conf; events { worker_connections 768; } http { sendfile on; tcp_nopush on; types_hash_max_size 2048; include /etc/nginx/mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream; … -

Reorder DELETE Field in Formset
I have a Django formset that is displayed as a table with one form per table. I would like to add a checkbox in the first column of the table so that the user to check it if they would like to delete the row (form). I have the javascript to manage the deletion of the formset row (form) and modify the management form on the front end, but I am having an issue when I add the DELETE field to the form. I used the solution reference in modify DELETE widget so that I could add the class "delete" to all of my delete fields for use in CSS and JS on the front end.

How to use to_internal_field and to_representation to modify just one field of a model?
I have a Position model that has a field named time_to_fill. I want the user to be able to input an integer representing the number of days from the creation date of the model instance and the serializer to convert this to a datetime. Likewise upon fetching the data I want the serializer to just calculate the time delta and return an integer. I have tried implementing it through to_internal_field() but it seems like I need to implement a conversion to and from native types for all fields. Is there anyway to use to_internal_field() for one field? Model: class Position(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=False) client = models.ForeignKey(Client, null=False, blank=False, on_delete=models.CASCADE) time_to_fill = models.DateTimeField(null=True, blank=True, default=timezone.now) applicant_source = models.JSONField(default=dict, null=True, blank=True) vacancies = models.IntegerField( null=True, blank=True, validators =[MinValueValidator(0)], default=0) filled = models.IntegerField( null=True, blank=True, validators =[MinValueValidator(0)], default=0) Serializer (fails with a NOT NULL constraint error): class PositionSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): client_name = serializers.ReadOnlyField(source='client.name') class Meta: model = Position fields = '__all__' def to_internal_value(self, data): if (data['time_to_fill']): date = datetime.now(tz=timezone.utc) data['time_to_fill'] = date + timedelta(int(data['time_to_fill'])) return super().to_internal_value(data) -
Is it possible to have multiple views use one model but have all input go to the same table?
I'm playing around with user inputs in a madlib game, I want the user to be able to fill out the blanks then play a second game that would remember the first inputs. I have one model that handles all of the inputs, the user is asked to fill out forms on different pages but instead of appending their inputs into the same table it creates a new one. I feel like it has something to do with my views but I'm not sure how to send everything to one table, I'll post my views below. from .models import Story from .forms import PartOneForm, PartTwoForm def index(request): return render(request, 'mad_libs/index.html') def story(request): """Show part one""" story = Story.objects.all() context = {'story': story} return render(request, 'mad_libs/part_one.html', context) def part_one_forms(request): if request.method != 'POST': form = PartOneForm() else: form = PartOneForm(data=request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return redirect('mad_libs:part_one') context = {'form': form} return render(request, 'mad_libs/part_one_forms.html', context) def story_2(request): """Show part one""" story = Story.objects.all() context = {'story': story} return render(request, 'mad_libs/part_two.html', context) def part_two_forms(request): if request.method != 'POST': form = PartTwoForm() else: form = PartTwoForm(data=request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return redirect('mad_libs:part_two') context = {'form': form} return render(request, 'mad_libs/part_two_forms.html', context) -

The problem is when i update the the model, i need the last update sent directly to flutter app without needing to refresh the app every time i sent a new update from the server. Can i achieve this through the backend? or there is another method in the flutter itself? Thanks in advance. -
Django table does not exist
I have a app in Django called webshopCatalog with the models.py. It is all in a development server, and I have previously dropped the mysql database followed by creating a new one since I was experimenting. The problem is, when I try to create a product now I get an error saying that the table does not exists (see the full error log when I click on the product link from admin). I have tried with python manage.py makemigrations and python manage.py migrate it doesn't solve the problem.

Django/Postgres primary key sequence
I have a Django application deployed on Heroku (free dyno) and I use Heroku Postgres as my database (Hobby Tier). I been noticing that sometimes there are some gaps/jumps on the primary key numeration. For example, there was a jump from 162 to 195, from 237 to 270... But objects are not deleted in between this gaps. I can't really understand why this is happening. Has anyone experienced something similar? What do you think? Is this problem related to Django, Postgres or Heroku? -
django | display the name value from select option with ajax (jquery) not the id
this is the ajax code $('.addtasksubmit').click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); $.ajax({ url: 'addtodo', type: "POST", data: { title: $('#task-title').val(), category: $('#catsel option:selected').val(), 'csrfmiddlewaretoken':$('input[name=csrfmiddlewaretoken]').val() }, success: function(response) { console.log(response) $('.todos-box').append(` <a href="#" class="category-link">${response.category}</a> `) $("#addtodo").trigger('reset'); $("#exampleModal").modal('hide'); } }) }) So ${response.category} gives me the id of the category but i need the category name to be viewed and this is views.py response = { 'title': request.POST['title'], 'category' : request.POST['category'], } todo = Todo.objects.create(title=response['title'], category=Category.objects.get(id=response['category']), user=request.user) todo.save() is there any way to view the category name with ajax not the id? or how can i get the name of the category with its id. sorry for my bad english.. -
Auto update model value based on another value in this model django

Not being able to send emails on a django backend from a React frontend
On a form submission from my React frontend, my django backend sends emails to multiple user. I am not using any sort of backend queue for the job scheduling (for now), so the request should take little time to complete. Its important to note that I am using axios interceptors for refreshing tokens on a 401 response. Now, the thing is, everytime someone submits the form and there is more than 1 user to send an email to, I get a 401 response to my axios interceptor and it fails. But when there is only 1 user they send an email to, it works fine. I understand this might be hard to visualize without code context, but would really appreciate if someone has any idea as to why this might happen? -
Query of coordinate data in Folium (ClickForMarker)
everyone, I am currently creating a small project with python / django. I would like to develop a tool in which the user can mark a point on a map - and then send it off using the "Remember address" button. This data should then be stored in the database. I use Folium / Leaflet for this. With the function "ClickForMarker" I can already mark points on the map. Now to my question :) Currently, a new marker is placed with each click - however, I would like that if a user clicks several times, the marker is always updated. How can I read out the data (coordinates). Or do I have a "Send data" button below the map - can I process the post request with the data? I don't think I have to mention that I'm still a beginner - with Javascript, for example, I only know very little. I'm happy about any help :) -
Django generic views with form_class and model attributes
In a note about generic views in Django's docs, it says that even if form_class is set, the model attribute should be set too. But I've seen many examples (some on Django docs itself) that only the form_class was specified. Also, inside the ModelFormMixin class (generic views inherit from it) you can find this: if self.form_class: return self.form_class else: if self.model is not None: # If a model has been explicitly provided, use it model = self.model It's in the 'else' that it would look for the model. So for views that inherit from generic views like FormView or CreateView, is it necessary that I set the model attribute if I've set the form_class? If not, then what is that note talking about?
