How do you control which language get stored in your models?
I am making a GraphQLAPI for a local business in my area using django_graphene. We will only be dealing with our local language and there will be no english used except for maybe email and password. When I get data from user I want to check if the language that the user typed in is in my preferred language and then store it in the database. How do I control the language being stored in the database? -
Python import all from folder
I have encountered issue while working on my Django project. I have multiple classes inside views.py. It had 1200 lines so I decided to move these views to seperated files inside new folder. Now one files, for example Customer.py has 2 classes for different operations. This is my project structure before splitting views.py: MyProject core - urls.py api - views.py manage.py Project structure after splitting views.py MyProject core - urls.py api - view - *all the files with multiple classes in each file* manage.py After splitting views.py I needed to import all classes from all files inside of the view folder inside core/urls.py. I have been trying to find out few hours now and can figure it out... My current solution is that in urls.py im doing from api.view import * while having init.py inside view folder which is doing from .oneOfManyClasses import * for all classes... I highly dont like this solution, I would love to find out some good looking simple elegant solution. Is here anyone who can help me ? Big thanks -
Django change frontend validation of number input widget
For number fields in the Django admin interface, it's only possible to input numbers and separators. How can I implement a similar frontend validation for my own custom widget? For example, I want to extend a TextInput widget so that the user can only input [A-Za-z]. The included pattern attribute only validates in the backend. -
Python - Compare two JSON with different length and without order
I want to compare two json data without order because there are same items with different orders. For example first json: [{'Id': 113, 'Label': 'Z', 'Input': 'Z', 'Updated': False}, {'Id': 124, 'Label': ' X', 'Input': ' X', 'Updated': False}, {'Id': 128, 'Label': ' C', 'Input': ' C', 'Updated': False}, {'Id': 117, 'Label': ' R', 'Input': ' R', 'Updated': False}, {'Id': 118, 'Label': ' T', 'Input': ' T', 'Updated': False}] Second Json [{'Id': 128, 'Label': ' C1', 'Input': ' C1', 'Updated': False}, {'Id': 118, 'Label': ' T1', 'Input': ' T1', 'Updated': False} {'Id': 113, 'Label': 'Z2', 'Input': 'Z2', 'Updated': False},] I want to make update different data but same ID json from the second json and delete from the first Json what second json doesnt have. So my loop is below: for form in selectedUserForm: for jsonItem in getJson: if form.id == jsonItem['Id'] and form.isUpdated == False: form.metaKey = jsonItem['Label'] form.metaVal = jsonItem['Input'] form.isUpdated = True form.save() elif jsonItem['Id'] == 0: newMeta = UserMeta(user = selectedUser, metaVal = jsonItem['Input'].title(), metaKey = jsonItem['Label'].title(), isUpdated = True) newMeta.full_clean() newMeta.save() elif form.isUpdated == False: form.isDeleted = True form.isUpdated = True form.save() However, this algorithm only make with order but my list is posted from … -
NoReverseMatch at /sessions/exercise/6/update/
I'm going crazy here. According to the Django debugger there's no reverse match for the pattern I'm requesting, but it's identical to my URL path in urls.py, and I am passing the object id as the required argument. NoReverseMatch at /sessions/exercise/4/update/ Reverse for 'exercise_update' with no arguments not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['sessions/exercise/(?P[0-9]+)/update/$'] Error during template rendering This is my html <button><a href="{% url 'sessions:exercise_update' exercise.id %}">Update exercise</a></button> This is my URL path path('exercise/<int:pk>/update/', MyExerciseUpdate.as_view(), name='exercise_update'), The view is just a generic update view. class MyExerciseUpdate(LoginRequiredMixin, UpdateView): model = Exercise fields = ['my_fields'] I've tried displaying the exercise.id just to see if it exists, and it does. How come there is no argument? Also, I use this path for a detail view in another page and it works just fine <a href="{% url 'sessions:exercise_detail' exercise.id %}">{{ exercise.name }}</a> Help, please. -

Use different decimal separators for frontend validation in Django Admin interface
I looked through every single similar question on stackoverflow and tried nearly everything. It seems easy to do: I just want to allow , as decimal separator for a FloatField in the Django admin interface. At the moment, it depends on the localization, but I always want to allow it. It would even be ok for me, if it's just a TextInput, but I need , to work. Setting DECIMAL_SEPARATOR in settings.py does not work. My question is similar to this 6 year old, unanswered one: How to only override DECIMAL_SEPARATOR in django while keeping localization intact? I managed to use the TextInput widget for FloatFields like this: class ExampleAdminForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Example def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super().__init__(*args, **kwargs) for key, value in self.fields.items(): if isinstance(value, FloatField): self.fields[key].widget = TextInput() The widget works, but an input like 1,23 leads to an error message Enter a number. I can't find out where the validation happens, as validate() of FloatField never gets triggered. Is there a way to, for example, override FloatField or the TextInput widget to allow for other decimal separators? Or any other way? -
Django - Transfer data from view to form
I am struggling with the update of database information with the forms, and simply passing information between views. I could really use some advice because I am fairly new to Django. The flow goes like this: 1. First form; I transfer the article price and title to the view "event" 2. The view "event" handles title and price and ask for confirmation in the html form 3. Once confirmed, it directs that information to the view "transact_test", I want this view to handle the update of the database via a new form that is build with the Article model. But it provides the error message : "didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead." -
(Django) Edit form data that is not ModelForm
Currently I'm having a Form model (unfortunately not ModelForm) with data which need to be edited/updated. After looking through many posts (most of which were related to ModelForm), I found a way to edit/update the data of Form inside Django shell with the following syntax: Drug.objects.filter(drug_id='d61').update(drug_id='d7') It worked inside the shell, yet when I did the same thing in the html form, nothing happened: data remained unchanged, no error was raised. drugs/forms.py from django import forms class DrugForm(forms.Form): drug_id = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={ 'class': 'form-control', 'id': 'drug_id', 'data-val': 'true', 'data-val-required': 'Please enter drug id', })) name = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={ 'class': 'form-control', 'id': 'name', 'data-val': 'true', 'data-val-required': 'Please enter name', })) updated_date = forms.CharField(widget=forms.DateInput(attrs={ 'class': 'form-control', 'type': 'date', 'id': 'update_date', }), required=False) drugs/models.py from django.db import models class Drug(models.Model): drug_id = models.CharField(max_length=20, unique=True, error_messages={'unique':"This drug id has already been registered."}) name = models.CharField(max_length=50) updated_date = models.DateField(auto_now_add=True, blank=True, null=True) def __str__(self): return self.name drugs/views.py from django.shortcuts import render, redirect from django.views.generic import ListView from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404 from .models import ( Drug, ) def update(request, drug_id): drug = get_object_or_404(Drug, drug_id=drug_id) drug_id = drug.drug_id name = drug.name updated_date = drug.updated_date if updated_date == '': updated_date = None Drug.objects.filter(drug_id=drug_id).update(drug_id=drug_id, name=name, updated_date=updated_date) return redirect("drug-list") templates/drugs/edit_drug.html {% extends 'base/base.html' … -

How to create a dynamic filter sidebar with Django and React?
We have to develop a simple homepage showing multiple electronic products and want to add a side bar filter that shows fields dynamicaly with the total of products based on previous filtered queryset. For example: Brand ----- Acer [11] LG [9] Lenovo [12] RAM --- 8Gb [6] 16Gb [16] Let's imagine LG does not have any laptop with 8Gb RAM, so if the user filters by 8Gb, the result will be: Brand ----- Acer [4] Lenovo [2] RAM --- [x] 8Gb [6] Which is the best way to handle this using Django and React? -
Django: Pagination on object, in view with multiple items in context-list

How to post prepopulated disabled ModelMultipleChoiceField?
I need my ModelMultipleChoiceField to be prepopulated with query parameters from GET-request (/?extending=1&extending2). I know from this question that I can define get_initial() method for my view, returning my request.

Save progress or actions of user in django?
I have a serious of task which needs to be completed by users when they signup ! How to keep track on this ? For now am checking if data exsist in more than 5 tables (like address, education etc). I think this is not a good way of doing this ! As when ever user logins, i need to check if they have finished all the basic tasks and then allow them to do other things.. On doing research, i have few options: Option1: Create a new model and store all progress on each row and then fetch all the rows to check if required is completed. Option2: Create a new model and store the finished actions in a array, for instace: Class Actions: owner = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) actions = ArrayField(models.CharField(max_length=128)) And with these, i can append all the finished task one by one, like {emailverification, personal_details,education_details} etc And then use the above to work on the conditions I think the second option is more effective, as it just fetches on row from the table instead of fetching multiple rows ! Or please suggest any new option to track this ! -
