Lazy load pagination in django
I have a function that makes 100 queries to an API, however there is a rate limit of something like 15 requests per second. Therefore, I tried using Django EL(Endless) Pagination in order to get something like Twitter style pagination. The effect I wanted was something in which by default it would only show the first ten items, and once the user scrolls to end, it would load the next ten items. However, it seems that pagination only paginates the template, not the view in which the data is requested. It seems that what the pagination is doing is: Call the function to send 100 queries. Display first 10 elements. When user reach the end, call again the function to send 100 queries. Show another 10 elements. Basically, each time the next page is requested, the view function is called. The view function is something like this: def user_info(request, user_account, template="entry_list.html"): # Function that makes the 100 requests entry_list = helpers.get_summary_list(user_account) context = { "entry_list": entry_list, } if request.is_ajax(): template = "entry_list_page.html" return render(request, template, context) Then in the template: {% load el_pagination_tags %} {% lazy_paginate entries %} {% for entry in entries %} {# your code to show the … -

The bus can be without passengers too. How can I do it? Currently, there is something wrong with the code that does not allow to do it: zero passengers, i.e. zero list is not allowed. Plus the add new passenger button does not exist, i.e. I can not add several passengers. -
I want to convert data from json file to another file
I want to convert data from json file to another file, so I had to use ('for in') because there is a lot of data with different value. The problem is that it displays the same value in different data def pms(request): n= open('./templates/pmsResponse.json') file =json.load(n) guest = dict () newguests = list () newroom=list() for x in file : guests=x['Guests'] for g in guests : guest["guest_id_pms"] = g['Number'] newguests.append ( guest ) data={ "guests" : newguests, } return JsonResponse(data) -
Django-contrib-comments fails to get authenticated user
I'm currently implementing django-contrib-comments and the post_comment view can't figure out the current authenticated user (to say it in my rookie words).

passing django database entries into messages within the line messenger api (linebot)
i would like the linebot to send all classes stored in the database, on a given a particular day, depending on the user input, through line messenger. e.g user types "hello" linebot responds with "hello" user types "monday" linebot sends monday's class schedule user types "studentlist(tutorname)" linebot sends all students in the list of that tutor so far, i can receive the echo, the linebot is storing the user data corectly in the model database too. the bot can differentiate between message type. (i.e "text", "image" etc) everything i seem to do stops the main messages being sent. How would be best to write the loops required to get my desired reponse? I was hoping to using the information in this way and pass that somehow into the message data = Lessons.objects.all().filter(headed_by__name="Tutor Name").filter(day__icontains="Monday") below is not working, and stops the rest of the elif functions from working. elif event.message.type=="text" | event.message.text=="Monday" : message.append(TextSendMessage(text='Monday?

djongo Company with ID “None” doesn’t exist. Perhaps it was deleted?
I couldn't find a solution among similar questions. Using mongosh, the Company objects do exist, but in the admin, they show as object(None) and therefore cannot be edited due to error "Company with ID “None” doesn’t exist. Perhaps it was deleted?". I guess it is about the "id" detection, but can not fix it myself. Question: how to fix the code to make the Company object to be shown correctly, not as None. myproject> db.companies_company.find() [ { _id: ObjectId("6145dd9a8bc9a685b2ae2375"), name: 'company1' }, { _id: ObjectId("6145ddaa8bc9a685b2ae2377"), name: 'company2' } ] models.py: from django.db import models # Create your models here. class Company(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=False, null=False, unique=True) admin.py: from django.contrib import admin # Register your models here. from .models import Company @admin.register(Company) class CompanyAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): pass -

Djongo keeps closing and creating new MongoClient DB connections with each request

Django rest framework, returning item status booked or free based on current date/time
I am currently working on a website for my students where it will help them to book some items on the classroom. I am already done with the booking logic and form so no two students are allowed to book the same item at the same time. I would like to create a table for them where it shows the item name and the status of the item based on the current time. So I have a webpage/django view that have a list of all the booking made including the item name, starting date, ending date, and the person who booked the item. So, based on this booking list, I would like to create some logic that will go through this booking list and compare it against the current time/date. In simple words, if the current time/date falls in between the start and end date of a booked item , it should return the value "booked" other wise "free". I am not sure how to achieve this. I brainstormed for days, and search the Internet for some hints but nothing. I would be very thankful if someone helped me. This is my models: class Items(models.Model): ITEMS_CATEGORIES=( ('item-1', 'item-1'), ('item-2', 'item-2'), … -
Proper Celery Monitoring and File-Management with Web-Services
We are working on an Internet and Intranet platform, that serves client-requests over website applications. There are heavy-weight computations on database entries and files. We want to update the state of those computations via push-notification to the client and make changes to files without the risk of race-conditions. The architecture is supposed to run on both, low- scaled one-server environments and high-scaled cluster environments. So far, we are running a Django Webserver with Postgresql, the Python-Library Channels and RabbitMQ as Messagebroker. Once a HTTP-Request from a client arrives in Django, we trigger the task via task.delay() and immediatly return the task_id to the client. The client then opens a websocket to another Django-route and hands over the task_ids he is interested in. Django then polls the state of the task via AsyncResult(task_id).state. Once the state changes, we read the results via AsyncResult(task_id).get and push the task_results to the client. Here a similar sequence diagramm, from another project I found online. Source(18.09.21) Something that is not seen on the diagram, the channels_worker have to fetch the file they are working on from Django. A part of the result is not for the client, but to update the file. Django locks and … -

How to handle document request in django?

How to show this on students page ? How to validate if the required documents are uploaded ? Please suggest something to do this efficiently ! -

This is the serializer class I am trying to get the places data -> from rest_framework import serializers from . import models class PlaceSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = models.Place fields = ('id', 'name', 'image') These are the views -> from rest_framework import generics from .import models, serializers # Create your views here. class PlaceList(generics.ListCreateAPIView): serializer_class = serializers.PlaceSerializer def get_queryset(self): return models.Place.objects.filter(owner_id=self.request.user.id) # Only the owner can create or make changes on the places def perform_create(self, serializer): serializer.save(owner=self.request.user) -
Store who updated Django Model from admin
I have a use case where data is only inserted and updated from django admin. Now, I have multiple users who have access to django admin page. I want to be able to store who exactly updated or created a record in django admin page. Ideally, I want to add a separate column to an existing model. models.py class Links(models.Model): link = models.URLField(unique=True) created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) created_by = model.ForeignKey(UserModel) updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) updated_by = model.ForeignKey(UserModel)
