Django: Query database from Channels consumers.py (WebSocket is closed before the connection is established)
I had live chat functionality working, but now I am trying to add a query to the database within the connect method. I am following the Channels documentation, and tried the solution in this other StackOverflow question but nothing is working. Below is my code. The error I'm seeing in the Javascript console is WebSocket connection to 'ws://localhost:8000/ws/chat/334/' failed: WebSocket is closed before the connection is established. I do have redis-server running on localhost and that was working before, so that's not a problem. async def connect(self): print('connect (got here!)') self.room_name = self.scope['url_route']['kwargs']['room_name'] self.room_group_name = 'chat_%s' % self.room_name print('self.room_name: ' + str(self.room_name)) valid_connection = await database_sync_to_async(self.verify_chat_room_key)() print('valid_connection: ' + str(self.valid_connection)) # Join room group async_to_sync(self.channel_layer.group_add)( self.room_group_name, self.channel_name ) self.accept() def verify_chat_room_key(self): trans = database_sync_to_async(Transaction.objects.get)(id=self.room_name) print('trans.status: ' + str(trans.status)) return True -

How to get the model instance calling the mixin?
I am putting the form_valid() method into a mixin like this.. ''' class PaymentAtomicMixin(object): @transaction.atomic def form_valid(self, form): try: with transaction.atomic(): self.instance = form.save(commit=False) .... .... form.instance.user = self.request.user return super().form_valid(form) ''' 3 models are sub-classing/utilizing this mixin, and I will have to perform different actions depending on what model is executing the form_save() method.

Need to deploy django app in Apache windows server 2016, Without C++ Build Tools
I have a Django app, I need to deploy this in Apache windows server 2016. But we were not able to deploy because of licensing issue. To deploy in windows we need Microsoft c++ build tools, but we can't install them because it's bundled with Visual Studio MSDN licensing. We are getting Microsoft c++ dependency errors while trying to install "wsgi" package, could you please tell me any alternate solution to install wsgi and deploy it in apache without using Microsoft c++ build tools.

Is there a way to import a file in forms.py or views.py?
In my Django project I created a subdirectly country/translations where country is the name of the app, translations is the folder. I created __init__.py inside it, so Python will recognize it as a module and inside it I created a file, countries_fr.py. Inside countries_fr.py I have this custom translation function: def t_countries(c): country_dict = { "Albania" : "Albanie", "Algeria" : "Algérie", "Antigua and Barbuda" : "Antigua-et-Barbuda", "Argentina" : "Argentine", "Armenia" : "Arménie", # etc. } if c in country_dict: return country_dict[c] return c I don't use gettext in this case because the country list come form a json file and gettext doesn't translate data coming from databases or files.

Django channel occasionally gets error "cannot call this from an async context - use a thread or sync_to_async"
My project recently added django channel for websocket and layer: Django=3.2.6 Channel=3.0.4 channels-redis="3.3.0" gevent=21.8.0 gunicorn=20.1.0 Gunicorn and daphne run WSGI and ASGI separately, Nginx proxy the traffic to WSGI or ASGI. In my production environment, it has less 0.1% chances to get cannot call this from an async context - use a thread or sync_to_async. These errors are not from ASGI(daphne) but from normal WSGI(Gunicorn) requests, they didn't occur in same piece of code but the root cause is a database query.

Django Error - ValueError: Field 'id' expected a number but got 'company'
I'm currently writing an application in django called account, now everything was working fine (as it usually happens), but I had to add more information in my models.py file, and all of the sudden, I got problems running the migrations, certainly as django enthusiast the usual approach is to delete all the migrations in the migration folder, delete the Database and finally run the usual set of commands. Unfurtunetely this time, that trick is not solving my problem, and I'm getting the following error: ValueError: Field 'id' expected a number but got 'company'.

Remove record from database when session is expired
My cart is working based on sessions and Cart model. When an item is added to the cart the session is created and product added to the Cart model. Delete product from cart is handled by this function: def remove_cart(request, slug): cart_id = request.session['cart_id'] cart = Cart.objects.get(id=cart_id) try: product = Product.objects.get(slug=slug) cart.products.remove(product) cart.total -= product.price cart.save() except Product.DoesNotExist: pass except: pass if cart.products.count() < 1: cart.delete() return HttpResponseRedirect(reverse("cart")) When the user deletes every item from the cart, the record is deleted from the database so it doesn't store empty records. The problem is when the user leaves items in the cart and the session expires (for example: user logged out). The record stays in the database and will never be used again, so it just takes up space. What would I have to do, to delete the Cart model, when the session is expired? The Cart id corresponds to the session name. -

How to increase read and write time after using DJango storages package?
I have a web app running on DJango which currently uses the DJango Admin interface as front end. Till date I had been using the default file system of the server for storing my media files, recently I ran out of space and chose to go for a third party storage service like AWS S3. But for all the images uploaded to my server I need to create a Dropbox link so I planned to use the DJango Storages package and set Dropbox as the default storage backend. It work fine, but the problem is that the reading and writing is very slow. It takes a lot of time to upload the images and to view the same. The loading time is very very slow. But the moment I change my storage backend it fastens up again. Is it due to using the DJango storages package? Is there a work around for the same? Yes I’m aware that I can use DJango queued storage for uploading but that’ll fix uploading speed and not the reading time. -

django social does not return user after login
I am trying to setup social login with GitHub using the Django social package. I am able to complete the begin by visiting http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/auth/login/github/ and the I get redirected to the complete page as expected. The login is appears to be successful as it sends me to the SOCIAL_AUTH_LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL I have specified in my settings. Now the view has a IsAuthenticated permission requirement and throws an error that credentials are not provided. I expected that after the login completes that the logged in user is added to the request but that does not seem to be the case as request.user is an Anonymous user. How can I get the logged in user after I am redirected from the oauth provider page successfully. My end goal is to return the access token to my spa from end and query the convert-token endpoint to get a jwt which I can then use for all my routes.
