Is there a way to pass information between pages in Reactjs using navlink?
I am using a Django REST framework, storing data in a model. I am then using Reactjs to consume the API and make GET/POST requests. Inside the React frontend, I am using react-router-dom to navigate between pages. I want to be able to click on a specific link, but then also pass on information to the component towards which the link is routed. This is my index.js code import React from 'react'; import ReactDOM from 'react-dom'; import './index.css'; import App from './App'; import reportWebVitals from './reportWebVitals'; import { BrowserRouter } from 'react-router-dom'; ReactDOM.render( <BrowserRouter> <App/> </BrowserRouter>, document.getElementById('root') ); This is my App.js code import './App.css'; import Container from '@material-ui/core/Container'; import Navigation from './Components/ToolBar' import Main from './Components/Main' function App() { return ( <> <Container maxWidth='lg' className="App"> <Navigation/> <Main/> </Container> </> ) } export default App; This is my Main.js code import { Switch, Route } from 'react-router-dom'; import Projects from './Projects'; import Tickets from './Tickets'; const Main = () => ( <Switch> <Route exact path='/projects' component={Projects}></Route> <Route exact path='/tickets' component={Tickets}></Route> </Switch> ); export default Main; This is my Toolbar.js code, which is used for navigating to different pages import { Button } from '@material-ui/core' import AppBar from '@material-ui/core/AppBar' import Toolbar … -
Parameterised decorator returning an error
I'm writing a decorator to check a certain attribute of a user. I will use this decorator over POST of GET methods of some class based APIs. The attribute is stored in the request.session["user_status']. def decorator_func(func): def wrapper_func(class_reference, request): status = request.session["user_status"] if status != value1 or status != value2: return Response(data="A dictionary") return func(class_reference, request) return wrapper_func Whenever the if condition is not satisfied and the func is accessed, it works as expected. But when the condition is satisfied and the Response() is returned, I'm getting following error: TypeError at "api path on which the decorator is applied" Object of type "custom user model of this project" is not JSON serializable I'm guessing due to not writing the decorator in the correct way I'm getting some error and when it is trying to return the error, it's also trying to return the current user object which is not JSON serializable. The user object is also stored in request.session["user"]. What am I doing wrong in this parameterized decorator function? -
How to add custom django admin site and urls without the prefix in every pattern?
I am trying to include the urls of my custom admin site of one of my apps in a Django project. I would like the path to be foo-admin/.... I managed to do so by including this prefix in all urlpatterns in the app's urls.py. However if I try to add the prefix to the project's urls.py and have only the suffixes in the app's urls, it breaks. It's something like this: This works: Project's urls.py urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls), path('', include('my_app.urls')), ] my_app/urls.py: urlpatterns = [ path('foo-admin/', my_app_admin_site.urls), path('foo-admin/foo/', views.some_view), path('foo-admin/foo/<slug>/', views.MyGenericView.as_view()), ] This doesn't work: Project's urls.py urlpatterns = [ path('admin/', admin.site.urls), path('foo-admin/', include('my_app.urls')), ] my_app/urls.py urlpatterns = [ path('', my_app_admin_site.urls), path('foo/', views.some_view), path('foo/bar/<slug>/', views.MyGenericView.as_view()), ] The error I'm encountering is: NoReverseMatch at /foo-admin/ Reverse for 'app_list' with keyword arguments '{'app_label': 'my_app'}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['admin/(?P<app_label>auth|app1|app2|django_mfa|axes)/$'] -

Django caching - Get is not pulling updated value while a function is in a loop
I have process in django which is streaming prices. When my application runs or certain events occur on my Django server I would like to save some variables from the database and store them in memory to use later them in my streaming process as a variable. Based on the value of this variable in the while loop every time my process tries to get the value stored in the cache. But my problems is that when I use cache.get() the update values is not pulling from the cache. The process is running by a Django Q cluster. Can someone help me what is the best way to implement in the running process to fetch the value from memory instead of continously quering the database for the same or updated value ? -
Creating a alert functionality in django wagtail
I am trying to create a alert section for a menu (similar to the menu on this page https://metageeky.github.io/mega-menu/responsive-header.html) *Each alert should have an effective date (date alert is “posted” live) and resolved date (date alert is “removed” live). Each alert will also have a maximum of one to two sentences of text describing situation. The number of active/current alerts will appear in parenthesis following the icon and ALERT link text. The icon and text are Dark Orange. When you hover over the icon and text, an underline appears. When users click on the link, they are taken to a page that lists all active alerts. At bottom of page, message displays “If you are experiencing an issue, please contact us at....” If there are no Alerts: The number of alerts in parenthesis following the icon and link text will not appear. Both the icon and alert text will be Primary Blue. When Users click on the link, they are taken to a secondary alerts page that displays a message that says “There are currently no active alerts. If you are experiencing an issue, please contact us at...” How would i achieve this? Thank you. -

Get the object name in django admin
Hej! I want to have a category for turnovers in my admin area and in there I have a field with currency. It is a dropdown field with pre given currencies. My problem is, that there aren't the actual currencies shown rather their IDs. (like Object 123). Does anyone know how to solve this for an inline? # models.py class Currency(models.Model): code = models.CharField(max_length=3, unique=True) currency = models.CharField(max_length=150, unique=True) class Turnover(models.Model): currency = models.ForeignKey(Currency, on_delete=models.PROTECT) # admin.py class TurnoverInline(admin.TabularInline): model = Turnover extra = 1 classes = ["collapse"] class SomeAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): form = SomeForm save_on_top = True inlines = [ TurnoverInline ] For a similar problem I created admin.ModelAdmins and integrated a code_str(self) and str(self) method in the model. But those aren't Inlines and in the SomeForm/SomeAdmin as fields/autocomplete_fields. -
Filter Django Models using lists of field parameters
I'd like to be able to pass any number of fields and values into a function to identify relevant rows: models.py class Player(models.Model): name = CharField(max_length = 50, default = 'Ronaldo') defender = BooleanField(default = False) midfielder = BooleanField(default = False) attacker = BooleanField(default = False) goalkeeper = BooleanField(default = False) views.py def find_player(**kwargs):#to be used in some view players = Player.objects.filters(kwargs).all() for player in players: #do something with player... find_player({defender:True, goalkeeper:True})#selects rows with players who defend and play in goal find_player({defender:True, attacker:False})#... find_player({defender:False}) What I'm trying to do above clearly doesn't work! I know that I could also use exec() to get what I want: def find_player(string_of_params): players = exec(Player.objects.filters(string_of_params).all()) for player in players: print(player) find_player('defender=True, goalkeeper=True')#prints rows with players who can defend and go in goal find_player('defender=True, attacker=False')#... find_player('defender=False'}) But I think there has to be a more natural way of unpacking the contents of a dictionary directly into filter(). Any guidance on this welcome. -

Serializer.data gives old values, new ones visible in serializer in DRF

How to convert (and maybe optimize) the following raw query to Django Queryset
I have the following query: SELECT OBJ_DESC_ERRORS.description, OBJ_DESC_ERRORS.object, OBJ_DESC_ERRORS.count_errors, OBJ_ERRORS.count_total FROM (SELECT `metrics_event`.`description`, `metrics_event`.`object`, COUNT(`metrics_event`.`id`) AS `count_errors` FROM `metrics_event` INNER JOIN `metrics_session` ON (`metrics_event`.`session_id` = `metrics_session`.`id`) WHERE (`metrics_session`.`training_id` = 4 AND NOT (`metrics_session`.`completed_at` IS NULL) ) GROUP BY `metrics_event`.`description`, `metrics_event`.`object` ORDER BY `count_errors` DESC ) as OBJ_DESC_ERRORS JOIN (SELECT `metrics_event`.`object`, COUNT(`metrics_event`.`id`) AS `count_total` FROM `metrics_event` INNER JOIN `metrics_session` ON (`metrics_event`.`session_id` = `metrics_session`.`id`) WHERE (`metrics_session`.`training_id` = 4 AND NOT (`metrics_session`.`completed_at` IS NULL) ) GROUP BY `metrics_event`.`object` ORDER BY `count_total` DESC ) as OBJ_ERRORS ON OBJ_DESC_ERRORS.object = OBJ_ERRORS.object which produces the following result: As you can see I'm basically running the same query twice. The reason for that is that I need to have that count_errors broken down by each aggregation of object + description, but I also need the count_total to be only aggregated by object. This was the way I could think of. Now I'd like to: How to write this using Django Queryset language ( I get stuck at the join/subquery parts) If there's a way to optimize this query (performance or clarity or both) I hope I'm not cheating with 2 questions in 1.

Having Problems with redirects while using azure auth adfs module
So, I'm trying to build and app that the user logs in using azure, and am usind azure auth adfs for it, and authentication itself is working.

Google Search console seems unable to detect link to internal pages
My site Owly proposes a redesign of Wikipedia, and has potentially all Wikipedia’s pages in English. I use django i18 for internationalization. Google Search console shows that almost 90k pages are indexed, but the “link” report shows some unexpected data. In particular, only internal links to homepage are counted (60k more or less), but NO ONE of the links to internal pages are counted (es. to https://owly.wiki/Norway/). The same seems to be happening with external links. Has anyone idea of the reason? Has django internalization something to do with that? Thank you 🙏 -
Does the 'upload_to' callback in the FileField hit the db for related content?
I have an Attachment model with two ForeignKey fields and a get_attachment_path callback for the upload_to attribute.: def get_attachment_path(instance, filename): return f'{instance.owner.name}/{instance.chat.id}/{filename}' class Attachment(models.Model): owner = models.ForeignKey(..) chat = models.ForeignKey(..) file = models.FileField(upload_to=get_attachment_path, ...) This will make the get_attachment_path run: Attachment.objects.create(..., file=file) So, with the line above, will django hit the db twice (one for the .create and one another for the get_attachment_path)? Asking it because the get_attachment_path callback tries to access related data (instance.chat.id etc.). -
AlgoliaSearch: Sort items by score?
I've spent few days trying to figure out how can I sort items by a given configuration, for example we have a model that is called "Product". Product has "has_image" - boolean field, "rating" - decimal field. And I would like to sort the items in a way that: Only items with images should be in top also the second sort is rating, so the products should appear in desc order for the rating logic ("items that have the best rating"). I have created an index: @register(Product) class ProductIndex(AlgoliaIndex): custom_objectID = "pk" index_name = "Product" fields = ( "id", "title", "category_id", "category_ids", "slugified_attrs", "seller_id", "supplier_id", "rating_count", "has_image", "is_on_sale", "supplier_priority" ) settings = { "minWordSizefor1Typo": 4, "minWordSizefor2Typos": 8, "hitsPerPage": 20, "maxValuesPerFacet": 100, "version": 2, "attributesToRetrieve": None, "unretrievableAttributes": None, "optionalWords": "None", "attributesForFaceting": get_attributes_for_faceting(), "attributesToSnippet": None, "attributesToHighlight": None, "paginationLimitedTo": 1000, "attributeForDistinct": None, "exactOnSingleWordQuery": "attribute", "ranking": [ "typo", "geo", "words", "filters", "proximity", "attribute", "exact", "custom", ], "separatorsToIndex": "", "removeWordsIfNoResults": "none", "queryType": "prefixLast", "highlightPreTag": "<em>", "highlightPostTag": "</em>", "snippetEllipsisText": "", "alternativesAsExact": ["ignorePlurals", "singleWordSynonym"], "searchableAttributes": ["title"], "numericAttributesForFiltering": None, 'attributesForFaceting': [ 'filterOnly(has_image)', 'filterOnly(rating_count)', 'filterOnly(supplier_priority)', ], } And specified the attributesForFaceting for filters to work, but as I specify this search: params = { "hitsPerPage": settings.PRODUCTS_PER_PAGE, "optionalFilters": [ "rating_count<score=5000>", … -
How to build a vote option logic with two choices in Django
I have a Poller object/model that contains questions, each having two possible choices to vote for. Now I want to enable the user to vote for either of them. I thought to add two vote fields to the Poller model itself but then I wouldn't be able to figure out which user voted, right? That's why I decided to set up a Vote model to be able to link each vote to both a User and a Poller. However, this leads to my following two issues: I am not sure how to render the Vote form, since it contains two boolean fields only. My idea is to simply create two html divs containing the choice_fields of Poller model and trigger an ajax call as soon as a user clicks on one of the two choices to vote (so I wouldn't render the Vote Form at all) Doing so, I am not sure how to handle this logic in the view. My idea is to change the boolean field of the choice that was selected to True and the other to False (in case the users changes his vote from Foo to Bar). Vote Model and Form class Vote(models.Model): poller = …
