How to hide a user's access token that is sent from Django web application?
I am a beginner. I have been working on a Django web application that is integrated with the Webex API. After the OAuth grant flow, an access token is generated (expires after 14 days, so I stored it in a database) and the access token is used in the Webex space widget code to enable the video calling feature on the website. This webpage template along with the Webex space widget code is rendered with Django. But I'm worried about exposing the access token as anyone can see it with developer tools in the browser. Is there any way to hide this access token visible in the browser? This is the webpage code generated by Django <body> <div id="my-recents-widget" /> <script> var widgetEl = document.getElementById('my-recents-widget'); // Init a new widget webex.widget(widgetEl).recentsWidget({ accessToken: '3f9a677931960cf65b6f13d20d1f1cfbcb2b502321891038' }); </script> </body> When this webpage is rendered in the browser, the access token is visible to anyone using the browser's developer tools. I want to hide this token at the same time making the widget working. Is there any way I can achieve this? As I'm a beginner, a detailed explanation will be helpful. The widget code is available here -
What email API should i use to power an app where users can sign-up and then send emails?
I made a django app where users can sign-up, create an account (not email address) and then ideally send out emails through some specific flows I designed in the app. My question is "how should I power the email sending system?". I initially thought about using gmail api but i don't want users to download/upload their credentials et cetera et cetera so now I am looking at services like SendGrid for example. My ideal scenario is that I have a scalable way to onboard users and send emails. Potentially from different email addresses (one per user) but it's ok also from one same email address (and I can differentiate in the text/subject) Suggestions? -
Django post-form cannot validate when using Form with additional inputs
I have a form containing af MultipleChoiceField where the choices are created dynamic based on the given user class UpdateForm(forms.Form): def __init__(self,names,*args,**kwargs): super(UpdateForm,self).__init__(*args,**kwargs) self.fields["list_names"] = forms.MultipleChoiceField(choices = zip(names,names),widget=forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple,label="Pick some names") add_new = forms.BooleanField(initial=True, label="Add new names?",required=False) delete_missing = forms.BooleanField(label = "Delete names?",required=False) and it works fine as GET-request, the issues arrives with the post-request: My view is the following: def update(request): user = request.user list_names = MyModel.objects.filter(user=user).all().values_list("nick_name",flat=True).distinct() form = UpdateWishlistForm(names =list_names) if request.method == "POST": post_form = UpdateForm(request.POST) if post_form.is_valid(): list_names = post_form.cleaned_data["list_names"] add_new = post_form.cleaned_data["add_new"] delete_missing = post_form.cleaned_data["delete_missing"] messages.success(request, "Success") context = { "form":form, } redirect("home") else: #invalid post_form messages.error(request, "Error") context = { "form":form, } return render(request, "discounttracker/update.html") else: #Get request context = { "form":form, } return render(request, "myapp/update.html",context=context) The post_form = UpdateForm(request.POST) does not validate and the post_form.errors is empty. It does contain data though (before calling post_form.is_valid()) print(post_form) # UpdateForm: <UpdateForm bound=False, valid=Unknown, fields=(add_new;delete_missing;list_names)> print(request.POST.dict()) #<QueryDict: {'csrfmiddlewaretoken': ['...'], 'add_new': ['on'], 'list_names': ['test_name_1']}> -
Django Auto Count Field and User - Django
I am using Django to build a website and now need custom counting for each user. I need a separate count for data submitted by a user for each user separately. I have code that works but I have been trying for a long time to integrate user separation into it but I can't. I'm using a foreign key to separate user's data and I need a separate count for each user so all user's first data submitted starts with 1 and counts up from there. I also think it is easiest to keep it all in my models because that is where I have had the best luck but I could be wrong. Thanks in Advance! models: class Sheet_Building(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User, default=True, related_name="Building", on_delete=models.PROTECT) user_count = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True) date = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True, verbose_name='Inspection Date') time = models.TimeField(blank=True, null=True, verbose_name='Inspection Time') class Meta: ordering = ['-pk'] def __str__(self): return self.timeor 'None' def get_absolute_url(self): return reverse('list_building') def save(self, *args, **kwargs): self.user_count = Sheet_Building.objects.count() + 1 super(Sheet_Building, self).save() -

Django forms don't are saving any information
So I have been trying do build a manager of activities with django and I'm still on the scratch. I was trying to test if the code can simply show if a acitivity is done or not, but it don't change anything. Everything looks good to me and I don't know if the error is in the form, in the view that saves the form or in everything else. I already tried to change the widget and fields of form and haven't been succeed in it. models.py: from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth.models import User class Activity(models.Model): author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) title = models.CharField(max_length=30) is_complete = models.BooleanField() def __str__(self): return self.title forms.py: from .models import Activity class ActivityUpdateForm(ModelForm): class Meta: model = Activity fields = ['is_complete'] views.py: from .models import Activity from .forms import ActivityUpdateForm def home(request): acts = Activity.objects.all() if request.method == 'POST': form = ActivityUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return redirect('home') else: form = ActivityUpdateForm() context = { 'acts': acts, 'form': form, } return render(request, 'diary/home.html', context) template: {% for act in acts %} <form method="POST"> {% csrf_token %} <p>{{ act.title }}</p> <p>Is complete: {{ act.is_complete }}</p> {{ form }} <p>{{ act.author }}</p> <button type="submit">Submit</button> </form> {% endfor … -
Picking up broker_api from Django settings
I have a Django / Celery / Flower setup routing messages to RabbitMQ on windows. All works well except that I can't find a way to pick up the flower broker_api from the Django settings file. CELERY_BROKER_URL is picked up and the tasks can be viewed by Flower, but the Broker tab is blank. If I pass broker_api on the celery -A myapp flower commandline then I can view the Broker tab. e.g. The following works and the broker tab is populated celery -A myapp flower --broker_api=http://myuser:mypwd@localhost:15672/api/ However if I add the broker api into settings.py along with the CELERY_BROKER_URL, instead of passing on the command line, then this no longer works. e.g. CELERY_BROKER_API_URL = 'http://myuser:mypwd@localhost:15672/api/' I have tried different setting names including BROKER_API, BROKER_API_URL, CELERY_BROKER_API, CELERY_BROKER_API_URL and even FLOWER_BROKER_API and FLOWER_BROKER_API_URL. I have also tried adding a flowerconfig.py file with broker_api configured as per the Flower manual, but this doesn't seem to be picked up. Any ideas? -

Ability to have users add/edit/remove form fields dynamically?
I am working on a project that requires a base form + template for ever user, based off of a simple model as such... class FloorPlan(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(account) stories = models.IntegerField() bathrooms = models.IntegerField() sqft = models.IntegerField() I know that JS will be needed to make this dynamic. So every user will have a base form and view, which displays just those 3 fields. Now I also want this form to be customizable in a sense to let the user add any extra fields, or also remove fields that are not used. Maybe they add backyard info, pool info, etc. I came across this app, https://github.com/askvortsov1/dynamic-django-forms but doesn't seem to fit what I need. I was thinking of adding an extra field called extra_field=models.ForeignKey(ExtraField) in the FloorPlan model, and make it a m2m, and in the ExtraField model just store the new fields the user wants to create. But design wise, dont think this would be best to let every user flood the DB? I've been looking around to find maybe a JS library too. Really just looking for some advice if anyone has created something similar, just looking for some pointers in the right direction. TY in advance! -

DRF nested through model serialization filtering
Each of my models is inherited from the base model, which contains the publishing_status field that helps me control whether or not the object is included in the returned data. class BaseModel(models.Model): class PublishingStatus(models.TextChoices): ACCEPTED = 'accepted', 'Accepted' REJECTED = 'rejected', 'Rejected' publishing_status = models.CharField( max_length=9, choices=PublishingStatus.choices, default=PublishingStatus.DRAFT, help_text="Publishing status represents the state of the object. By default it is 'draft'" ) class Meta: abstract = True Here are two models Word and Homonym they both inherit from BaseModel: class Word(BaseModel): definition = models.CharField(max_length=255) homonyms = models.ManyToManyField('self', through='Homonym', through_fields=('homonym', 'word')) class Homonym(BaseModel): homonym = models.ForeignKey(Word, on_delete=models.CASCADE) word = models.ForeignKey(Word, on_delete=models.CASCADE) Homonyms are basically words too, so I have self-reference here, but through the model Homonym so that I could control these relationships to be public or not for my website. Then follow the serializers and probably the solution should be passed here: class HomonymSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): class Meta: model = Homonym fields = '__all__' class WordSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer): homonyms = HomonymSerializer(many=True) class Meta: model = Word fields = '__all__' Question: Currently, all homonyms are displayed, regardless of whether they are accepted or not. How can I restrict the nested serializer to include only homonyms with the publishing_status="accepted"? Here is my view: class WordRetrieveView(RetrieveAPIView): serializer_class … -
Programmatically trigger password reset in Django 3.2
The method detailed here no longer works. Importing django.contrib.auth.forms.PasswordResetForm results in the custom user class not being available (django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: AUTH_USER_MODEL refers to model 'accounts.CustomUser' that has not been installed). How do I send these emails programmatically? To avoid the X-Y Problem: I don't want user registration. I want admins to be able to create users by supplying an email address, at which point the user receives a password reset email. Upon resetting (more accurately, creating) a password, the user can log in and set a display name and other attributes. -
Django Elastic serach deleting some documents when pointing multiple documents to the same index
I have my django application where i am using django_elasticsearch_dsl to index document to later do elastic search with them. I have two similar models in database so i want the documents to be pointing to the same index in elastic search so later i can do a search with both of them like they are the same.
