How can I make a paragraph in Django Admin form to be italic? I am using Vue3 Composition API for frontend?
I am building a blog app with a body TextField in Django Admin with Vue3 composition API as frontend. I have tried several ways to make the body (article) to be italic but It only displays the raw input (e.g. italic). I want to make a paragraph italic in Django Admin with body textfield.

Django 403 "detail": "Authentication credentials were not provided." Knox Tokens
I was following this tutorial (https://github.com/bradtraversy/lead_manager_react_django/tree/db45e4f6fc05a3481e7b8a0223e0aab0355a84b6) to make a Django-React-Redux application. I am having trouble with my UserAPI, specifically when making a GET request. Note that I am using knox tokens. As the logout function works fine (this function is a default from knox), I can see that the token is properly generated from the login, as I use this token for logout. I suspect that there is something in my settings.py that is wrong. The error is: 403: "detail": "Authentication credentials were not provided." class UserAPI(generics.RetrieveAPIView): # this route needs protection # need a valid token to view permission_classes = [ permissions.IsAuthenticated, ] serializer_class = UserSerializer def get_object(self): return self.request.user # Get the registered organizations of the user @action(methods=['get'],detail=True) def registered_orgs(self,request,*args,**kwargs): instance = self.get_object() orgs = instance.followed_organizations.all() serializer = OrganizationSerializer(orgs,many=True) return Response(serializer.data) Here is my settings file: """ Generated by 'django-admin startproject' using Django 4.1.1.

Django Database query optimization on filter() same QuerySet and assigning to different variables

Django Sessions Login
in the following code section of my Django project, I have a function login_view. This function is supposed to log in a user. My question would be how I can use Django's sessions to start a separate session at each login: def login_view(request): if request.method == "POST": username = request.POST["username"] password = request.POST["password"] user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password) if user is not None: login(request, user) return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("index")) else: return render(request, "users/login.html", { "message": "Invalid credentials" }) return render(request, "users/login.html") This is what i tried: def login_view(request): if request.method == "POST": username = request.POST["username"] password = request.POST["password"] user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password) if user is not None: request.session['username'] = username request.session['password'] = password request.session['user'] = user login(request, user) return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("index")) else: return render(request, "users/login.html", { "message": "Invalid credentials" }) return render(request, "users/login.html") -
Django - Is there a possibility to somehow combine multiple foreign keys into 1 field value from another model?
I want to create a model called DailyPerformance with following fields: class DailyPerformance(models.Model): date = models.DateField() driver = models.ForeignKey(Employee, on_delete=models.CASCADE) TYPE_OF_GOODS_CHOICES = ( ("Excavated soil", "Excavated soil"), ("Sand", "Sand"), ("Crushed stone", "Crushed stone"),... ) type_of_goods = models.CharField(blank=True, null=True, max_length=30, choices=TYPE_OF_GOODS_CHOICES) place_of_loading = models.ForeignKey(ConstructionSite, on_delete=models.CASCADE) place_of_unloading = models.ForeignKey(ConstructionSite, on_delete=models.CASCADE) number_of_rounds = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True) My biggest problem is with fields place_of_loading and place_of_unloading. Place of loading could be Construction site, Gravel pit, Sand pit, etc., while place of unloading could be Construction site or Landfill. Since I already have ConstructionSite model, I wanted to create models GravelPit, SandPit, Landfill and combine all of them in DailyPerformance model. This is the idea: Our drivers will need to fill the form at the end of working day, and I want for place_of_loading drop-down menu to have values from ConstructionSite, GravelPit and SandPit. The same goes for place_of_unloading. place_of_loading = models.ForeignKey(ConstructionSite, GravelPit, SandPit) place_of_unloading = models.ForeignKey(ConstructionSite, Landfill) I know this doesn't work, but wanted to know if there is any other solution. -
(Django 5.03] problem with django.contrib.auth.views.LogoutView
Today i am reviving an old django project. After creating all the needed things and importing the database, i could login and it worked (Or so i thought!) Everything works like it was when i abandoned the project a year or so ago, except the logout link in my header. I looked for people with similar problems and i found this: As per the Django 5.0 release notes, support for logging out via GET requests in the django.contrib.auth.views.LogoutView is removed. You must issue a POST in order to log out and be redirected. But that doesn't help me at all.

I am trying to build a django app that takes a record file as an uploaded file and then generates data for that record file and saves it to a local directory in the "server" local pc at the moment so for now i have this: models.py: class Sensor(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) type = models.CharField(max_length=50) OwnerCompany = models.CharField(max_length=50) def __str__(self): return self.name class Bag(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=255) sensor = models.ForeignKey("Sensor",on_delete=models.CASCADE) date_created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) bag_file = models.FileField(upload_to="bag_files/") def __str__(self) -> str: return self.name views.py : class BagView(APIView): #to be changed to viewset parser_classes = [MultiPartParser] def get(self, request): bags = Bag.objects.all() serializer = BagSerializer(bags, many=True) return Response(serializer.data) def post(self, request): print(request.FILES,request.data) serializer = BagSerializer(data=request.data) if serializer.is_valid(): bag_upload = request.FILES['bag_upload'] if bag_upload: bag_name = os.path.basename(bag_upload.name) serializer.create(serializer.validated_data,bag_name) return Response({'message': 'Bag File Created and Data Extracted', 'data': serializer.data}, status=status.HTTP_201_CREATED) return Response(serializer.errors, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST) serializers.py : class SensorSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Sensor fields = "__all__" class BagSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): bag_upload = serializers.FileField(write_only=True) class Meta: model = Bag fields = ['id', 'sensor', 'date_created', 'bag_upload'] def create(self, validated_data,bag_name): print("HIIII") bag_upload = validated_data.pop('bag_upload', None) sensor_data = validated_data.pop('sensor', None) # Get 'sensor' data from validated data print(sensor_data) bag_name = bag_name # Check if 'sensor' data is provided if sensor_data is None: … -
Django-React not staying logged in
I have a React JS - Django site and I implemented the login functionality. But I have seen that the user does not stay logged in even though it authenticates and moves to the home page after log in. I tried displaying the username once it navigates to the home page and it returns empty. Views.py class Login(APIView): def post(self, request): username = request.data.get('username') password = request.data.get('password') # Authenticate user user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password) if user is not None: # If authentication succeeds, log in the user login(request, user) return JsonResponse({"message": "Login successful"}) else: # If authentication fails, return error response return JsonResponse({"error": "Invalid username or password"}, status=status.HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST) Login.js const handleSubmit = async (e) => { e.preventDefault(); try { const response = await fetch("http://localhost:8000/login/", { method: 'POST', withCredentials: true, headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ username, password }) }); const data = await response.json(); if (response.ok && data.message === "Login successful") { // Redirect to the home page upon successful login navigate('/'); } else { // Set error state with the error message setError(data.error); } } catch (error) { // Handle network or server errors setError("An error occurred during login. Please try again later."); } I have the … -
Is there any way to optimize get_or_create() to make the program faster?
The functionality I want to achieve is to create a new class and import users. Since I don't want the same user to be imported multiple times and a user can join different classes, I have used get_or_create(). However, I have noticed that the program becomes slow when importing a large number of users at once (using CSV to import users). def post(self, request): class_data = request.data class_data["start_time"] = dateutil.parser.parse(class_data["start_time"]) class_data["end_time"] = dateutil.parser.parse(class_data["end_time"]) class_data["created_by"] = request.user if class_data["end_time"] <= class_data["start_time"]: return self.error("Start time must occur earlier than end time") user_data = class_data.pop("users") # Retrieve user data and remove it from the class data try: with transaction.atomic(): if Class.objects.filter(title=class_data["title"]).exists(): return self.error("Class with the same title already exists") class_obj = Class.objects.create(**class_data) # Create the class object # Add the creator to the class members if not class_obj.users.filter(id=request.user.id).exists(): class_obj.users.add(request.user) for data in user_data: if len(data) != 4 or len(data[1]) > 32: return self.error(f"Error occurred while processing data '{data}'") username = data[1] user, created = User.objects.get_or_create(username=username, defaults={ "password": make_password(data[1]), "college": data[3], "student_number": data[1] }) if created: profile = UserProfile(user=user, real_name=data[2]) profile.save() # class_obj.users.add(user) if not class_obj.users.filter(id=user.id).exists(): class_obj.users.add(user) return self.success(ClassAdminSerializer(class_obj).data) except IntegrityError as e: return self.error(str(e).split("\n")[1]) I have identified three areas that slow down the … -
Django drf-yasg API versions switch from drop down
Is there a way to show available API versions in drop down using drf_yasg without overwriting the template? I checked their docs but seems like i have to use versionized URL to see different version of API, or i can show all API version URLs on same page. But I want to have a drop down to show only selected version paths. -
Have to run python manage.py collectstatic everytime I make change in my static files to show the changes in Django
I am creating a Django application and right now it's in development phase. I am using Google Cloud Storage, so I have to change settings accordingly, but after that I have to always run python manage.py collectstatic to show the changes in css or js file, no matter how small they are. settings.py STATIC_URL = 'static/' DEBUG = True DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.gcloud.GoogleCloudStorage' GS_BUCKET_NAME = 'videovogue' STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.gcloud.GoogleCloudStorage' service_account_key_path = os.getenv("GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS") GS_CREDENTIALS = service_account.Credentials.from_service_account_file(service_account_key_path) What is going wrong?

How can I authenticate a user based on correct/incorrect credentials, but ignore their "is_active" state if I want to handle it separately?
Currently with django's default auth.authenticate method, it will return None if the credentials are correct, but user.is_active is false. This means that users who have correctly entered their credentials will receive the same error message as users who have incorrectly entered their credentials. I am looking to provide users with an error message for an edge case when they've entered the correct credentials, but haven't activated their account via email verification and thus user.is_active=False. My question is how do I implement this safely and efficiently? views.py: ... from django.contrib.auth import authenticate class LoginView(View): def get(self, request): return render(request, 'accounts/login.html') def post(self, request): username = request.POST['username'] password = request.POST['password'] if username and password: user = auth.authenticate(username=username, password=password) if user: if user.is_active: auth.login(request, user) return redirect('accounts:home') else: uidb64 = Base64.get_uidb64(user) message = format_html("Please check your email for a verification link, or <a href='{}'>click here to request a new one.</a>", reverse('accounts:verify', kwargs={'uidb64':uidb64})) messages.error(request, message) else: messages.error(request, 'Invalid account credentials. Please try again.') return render(request, 'accounts/login.html') return render(request, 'accounts/login.html')
