Django Particular wise total in their respective rows

How can I overwrite a models.py entry only if the user id is the current user?
I have genome files, and I want each user to be able to upload their own genome file, but they can only have one of them. I want it so that if they try to upload another, then they will just replace the genome and form data for their last entry. I am using their entries, along with n number of people who use the site (each person also having 1 entry per person) as samples to analyze against that person's genome, so I want to keep a models file full of genomes, names, sex, etc... but only one per user. Here's my models.py file from django.db import models from django.core.exceptions import ObjectDoesNotExist SEX_CHOICES = ( ('M', 'Male'), ('F', 'Female') ) class Genome(models.Model): first_name = models.CharField(max_length=25) last_name = models.CharField(max_length=25) CHOICES = [('M','Male'),('F','Female')] sex = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=SEX_CHOICES, default='M') genome = models.FileField(upload_to='users/genomes/') #id = request.user.id #if id is the current user then replace old data with new data def __str__(self): return self.title and here is my views function def upload(request): context = {} if request.method == 'POST': form = GenomeForm(request.POST, request.FILES) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return redirect('My-DNA.html') else: form = GenomeForm() return render(request, 'my-DNA.html', {context}) else: print("failure") form = GenomeForm() return render(request, 'Upload.html', … -
Access Foreignkey Instance on Function based Views Django

django remove m2m instance when there are no more relations
In case we had the model: class Publication(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=30) class Article(models.Model): publications = models.ManyToManyField(Publication) According to: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/topics/db/examples/many_to_many/, to create an object we must have both objects saved before we can create the relation: p1 = Publication(title='The Python Journal') p1.save() a1 = Article(headline='Django lets you build web apps easily') a1.save() a1.publications.add(p1) Now, if we called delete in either of those objects the object would be removed from the DB along with the relation between both objects. Up until this point I understand. But is there any way of doing that, if an Article is removed, then, all the Publications that are not related to any Article will be deleted from the DB too? Or the only way to achieve that is to query first all the Articles and then iterate through them like: to_delete = [] qset = a1.publications.all() for publication in qset: if publication.article_set.count() == 1: to_delete(publication.id) a1.delete() Publications.filter(id__in=to_delete).delete() But this has lots of problems, specially a concurrency one, since it might be that a publication gets used by another article between the call to .count() and publication.delete(). Is there any way of doing this automatically, like doing a "conditional" on_delete=models.CASCADE when creating the model or something? Thanks! -

Django Celery: Clocked task is not running
In a Django app, I have a form that schedules an email to be sent out. It has four fields: name, email, body, send_date. I want to dynamically create a Celery task (email) to run another Celery task at the designated time. I have been able to send out the email at regular intervals (every 30 seconds) based on the form using the following code: schedule, _ = IntervalSchedule.objects.update_or_create(every=30, period=IntervalSchedule.SECONDS) @shared_task(name="schedule_interval_email") def schedule_email_interval(name, email, body, send_date): PeriodicTask.objects.update_or_create( defaults={ "interval": schedule, "task": "email_task" }, name="Send message at interval", args=json.dumps(['name', 'test@test.com', 'body']), ) However, when I have tried to schedule a task to run at a specific time (3 minutes later from the current time) via ClockedSchedule, Celery beat records the tasks and saves all the relevant settings. However, it never actually sends an email. clocked = ClockedSchedule.objects.create(clocked_time=datetime.now() + timedelta(minutes=3)) @shared_task(name="schedule_clock_email") def schedule_email_clocked(name, email, body, send_date): PeriodicTask.objects.create( clocked=clocked, name="Send message at specific date/time", task="email_task", one_off=True, args=json.dumps(['name', 'test@test.com', 'body']), ) I eventually want to dynamically set the clocked field based on the datetime the user enters into the form, so the current code is just trying to test out the way Celery works. I think I'm missing something about how this works, though. … -

How to ensure fetch GET request runs after database updated?
I am having trouble ensuring that my GET request in Javascript runs after my PUT. Sometimes the JSON promise returns with updated data sometimes it does not! It appears to be random. It always displays correctly upon page reload. I am getting a "Fetch failed loading: PUT" error in my console despite the database being updated successfully.
