Django set user is_active to false when creating an employee separation
I have an extended User model that is related to the employee Separation model and I would like to set that User as inactive with the SeparationCreateView. It's like when an employee leaves the company, it is recorded with this separation view and it is disabling employee access to the app automatically. class Employee(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) class Separation(models.Model): employee = models.ForeignKey(Employee, on_delete=models.CASCADE) Separation create view is working but it is not setting the user is_active to false class SeparationCreateView(LoginRequiredMixin, CreateView): model = Separation form_class = SeparationForm template_name = 'coreHR/separation.html' success_url = reverse_lazy('corehr:separations') def form_valid(self, form): separation = form.save(commit=False) separation.employee.user.is_active = False separation.save() return super().form_valid(form) What am I doing wrong here? Any help is highly appreciated. -
how to turn off l10N for one value
I use {% load l10n %} and it works great. But it formats Money('55652.69924091', 'USD') into 55652.70 USD, which is generally ok, but in one place i need to get 55652.6992 USD (decimal places increase to 4). I tried {% localize off %}{{ object.value }} {% endlocalize %} but no effect. I can do it with .amount, but this is ugly. -

NoReverseMatch at post when I add href link
I am building a "game" website where clues are given and individuals will make guesses. I have added home.html, new_game.html, game_detail.html, base.html, and now edit_game.html. All is working correctly to create a new, list (in home.html), and display details. Now I am adding the function to edit the game in edit_game.html. When I add the html link `Edit Game in game_detail.html, I get the error (below) when I click on any of the games in the list, which should display the game_detail page.

Here is the error: NoReverseMatch at /post/2/ Reverse for 'edit_game' with arguments '('',)' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['post/(?P<pk>[0-9]+)/edit/$'] It is clearly passing the ID of the post.

Using Django Json field to reduce migrations issue
I am new to Django Json Field. I have been creating models and migrating them for now. Now I am introduced to Jsonfield. What I have heard is, it is the best way to mitigate the migrations issue because of jsonfield. It is because, if we had to add fields or remove fields from the model after populating the fields (if we have used other regular fields like chafield and emailfield) in production, there may arrise migration issue which we can avoid if we use jsonfield becaue we can just pass any json data with any number of fields in the jsonfield. So, is this the best way to avoid migration issue?? I am seeking expert advice here, because there is no one I can ask and that is what I have heard. It seems like this. class Example(models.Model): data = models.JSONField(null=False, default=dict) So, instead of creating two models named Contacts and Feedback for saving the data of contact form and feedback form, I can simply use this same example model and validate to accept any data of many such forms existing in the frontend. -

How to redirect to a slug url in Django when the underlying string contains spaces
So I have an object Poller that contains the field poller_headline which I'd like to use as part of the redirect url for that object. Since poller_headline contains a lot of spaces typically, I want to replace them with hyphens to make the url more human readable. I tried to define a property in the Model and implement this to the url, but this doesn't do anything. # urls.py # Redirect url to single Poller path('poller/<int:pk>/<slug>[a-z0-9-_]+?)', render_single_poller, name='single_poller'), # models.py class Poller(models.Model): [..] poller_headline = models.CharField(max_length=100) @property def slug(self): return self.poller_headline.replace(" ", "-")[:50] # Template <a class="hidden_poller_id" href="/poller/{{ poller.pk }}/{{ poller.poller_headline }}"> returns Page not found (404) Request Method: GET Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/poller/10/Headline%20default for poller_headline == 'Headline default' -

Handle multiple boolean items in a single row with postgres?
I have a table with more than 12 columns which just have boolean items ! How to manage this with a single column ? And as part of requirement, this needs to be dynamic ( in the sense, the column may increase in future ) so it should act without altering the table ! Whats the best way to achieve this ? Table Users: married: False profession_provided: False location_provided: True certificates_provided: False exams_provided: True Like the above i have more than 12 columns, and in near future this may increase - so is there any way to handle this - for example using Json or array or bitwse etc I have read some article saying bitwise can be stored like this, 0010101 So if its 0 then false else true ! Is this trustable or is there any effective way to handle this ? -
form.is_valid is always False. probably about ManyToManyField
I'm working on my first project in Django. The project has two applications. Each application has one model. There is a Station model and an Employee model. Employees belong to multiple Stations, so there is a many-to-many relationship (ManyToManyField in Employee model: "belong_to"). /LedgerEmployee/ models.py <- Employee model /LedgerStation/ models.py <- Station model Problem Validation is always false when POSTing a new LedgerEmployee registration form. Additional Information LedgerEmployee's new registration form was working fine (True) before "believe_to" was installed. I think it's probably a many-to-many error. (Even after the installation, I can register correctly in the /admin page, but I don't want other people to put it in /admin). As I am not an engineer, I think you guys are making the code hard to read. Please please please help me. /LedgerEmployee/models.py from django.db import models # Create your models here. from django.conf import settings from LedgerStation.models import Station class Employee(models.Model): name_1 = models.CharField('name_1', max_length=20) name_2 = models.CharField('name_2', max_length=20) tel1 = models.CharField('tel11', max_length=13) tel2 = models.CharField('tel22', max_length=13, default='', blank=True) postal_code = models.CharField('postal_code', max_length=8, default='', blank=True) address = models.TextField('address', default='', blank=True) email = models.CharField('email', max_length=30, default='', blank=True) nurse_licence_type = models.CharField('nurse_licence_type', max_length=4, \ choices=settings.NURSE_LICENCE_TYPE, default='None') nurse_licence_num = models.CharField('nurse_licence_num', max_length=10, default='', blank=True) nurse_licence_date … -

Approving and Declining requests from user, Django/Python
Am going to ask for forgiveness in advance because for this specific question i have not written out any code. It is so because i have not figured out how i can do it.

I have tried using Django-River but i can not seem to understand the documentation very well. Is there any other way i can do this?

Why do Django REST Framework builtin permission classes have request.user check?
I'm writing my first DRF project, and i was interested in how builtin DRF permission classes are implemented - IsAuthenticated and IsAdminUser, for example. In rest_framework/permissions.py you can find following code: class IsAdminUser(BasePermission): ... def has_permission(self, request, view): return bool(request.user and request.user.is_staff) class IsAuthenticated(BasePermission): ... def has_permission(self, request, view): return bool(request.user and request.user.is_authenticated) As you can see, both classes check for request.user before the second condition. It is probably needed for some reason, but i can't figure out why. The first thing that came to my mind was that request.user object might have None value or have some object without is_staff or is_authenticated attributes and in this case request.user.is_staff and request.user.is_authenticated will cause AttributeError. I experimented a bit and even if i send unauthenticated request, request.user points to AnonymousUser. Same thing is written in docs: If no class authenticates, request.user will be set to an instance of django.contrib.auth.models.AnonymousUser, and request.auth will be set to None. But the most interesting thing here is that AnonymousUser object actually has is_staff and is_authenticated attributes! Both are set to False. So why would you check for request.user first instead of directly checking request.user.is_staff and request.user.is_authenticated conditions? -
report builder for django
is this something like stimulsoft or crystal report for django, i am not talking about report viewer that just export some excel data, i am talking about whole package, like some text with variables and some tables, pages with headers and footers and water marks and so on. i want to have footer on every page and tables that i don't know how long they will grow and maybe they go to second page or third and the page must be generated with footer for new data just like stimulsoft reporter
