DRF Project Static Files Problem On Server
I'm trying to host the project I prepared on PythonAnywhere. Even though I run the collectstatic command, I can't get any results. When I visit the url, the design does not appear, the same is true for the Admin. When I looked, the requested address is static file instead of static_base. But static_url and static_root should have different names anyway. Do I need to add something related to this field in the urls.py file? Because I haven't seen anything like it when I read it.

How to add more fields in django-allauth User model?
I want to add more fields in Django allauth user model. I created a User-Profile model in a one-to-one relation with auth-user and tried to create user-profile object in form.py. But this method is not working. Here is my code: models.py class UserProfile(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User, related_name='profile', on_delete=models.CASCADE) forms.py class CustomSignupForm(SignupForm): profile_picture = forms.ImageField() def signup(self, request, user): profile_picture = self.cleaned_data['profile_picture'] user.save() UserProfile.objects.create(user=user, profile_picture=profile_picture) return user -
DetailView + input button
I would like to add a button to "validate" a user towards the next step of his registration. The staff member have to "validate" the user in the user detail page. So I created a DetailView view with template with all the details of this user. But I would like to know if it is possible to write code in DetailView function to allow the user to increment his step_registration variable when I click on "validate" ? Here is my DetailView function : views.py class StudentDetailView(DetailView, LoginRequiredMixin): model = Student login_url = login student_detail.html {% block content %} <h1>Etudiant: {{ student.user.firstname }} {{ student.user.firstname }}</h1> <ul> {% if student.photo %} <li> Photo :<img src="{{ student.photo.url }}", width = 250, height = 300>"> </li> {% endif %} <li> Etat de l'inscription : {{ student.step_registration }}</li> <li> Date de naissance : {{ student.birthdate }} </li> </ul> <button class="btn btn-secondary"> Validate ! </button> {% endblock %} The step registration variable is called "step_registration", so I want to do student.step_registration += 1 when a staff member click on "validate" -
CS50 Project 1 Search bar Question: How do I make the search bar filter through the entries to find the possible ones and display them in a list?
I am working on CS50 Project 1 to make a search bar that searches through the possible wikipedia-like entries using Django. If you type in the exact name of the title, you will be redirected to that entry page. How do I display a list of possible entries using the query? views.search def search(request): entry_list = util.list_entries() query = request.GET.get("q", "") if query in entry_list: return redirect(get_entry, query) else: results = [] for entry in entry_list: if query in entry: results.append(entry) return render(request, "encyclopedia/index.html", { "entry": results }) index.html {% extends "encyclopedia/layout.html" %} {% block title %} Encyclopedia {% endblock %} {% block body %} <h1>All Pages</h1> <ul> {% for entry in entries %} <a href = "wiki/{{ entry }}"><li>{{ entry }}</li></a> {% endfor %} </ul> {% endblock %} If anything but the exact title is searched for, the user receives a blank page. How do I fix this? -
how to modify the field value of a model when another field value of another model changes?
I have 4 models: reputation, goldbadge, sylverbadge and bronzebadge would like to add 1 in the bronzebadge model when the reputation model score reaches 100 score and this must be done automatically here are my models class reputation(models.Model): score=models.BigIntegerField(default=0) user=models.ForeignKey(User,on_delete=models.CASCADE,related_name="reputation_user") def __str__(self): return self.score class goldBadge(models.Model): score=models.BigIntegerField(default=0) user=models.ForeignKey(User,on_delete=models.CASCADE,related_name="goldbadge_user") def __str__(self): return self.score the other models are almost identical My concern is that when saving the reputation model we will first check if the score is greater than or equal to 100 if yes then we increase the value of sylverbadge by 1 I am only a beginner in python and django so your help will do me a lot of good thank you for your answers already -
Django -Python Copyfile using win32api permission denied
I was looking to implement a copy on the server where I click a button on the client side html of my web server and the server implements a copy of a particular file inside the server from a fixed destination to another destination inside the server itself. The server is windows based so I was using the win32api CopyFile method but it shows access denied error . How can I resolve this issue? I have tried setting permissions of the drive. It seems as if Django needs administrative privileges for this but not sure. Other solutions are welcome. -
django models containing list of another model
I have to implement adding different pages/urls to the favorities from a list of pages. I am using django and have a user class inbuilt and provided by django, a page class like this class Page(models.Model): ... category = models.ForeignKey(Category, on_delete=models.CASCADE) title = models.CharField(max_length=TITLE_MAX_LENGTH) url = models.URLField() Below is category class class Category(models.Model): ... name = models.CharField(max_length=NAME_MAX_LENGTH, unique=True) ... I have to store this list of pages per user as their favorites. I can think of it like many users will store many pages and therefore, add a field to the User model like this : pageToSave = models.ManyToMany(Page) or I can think of it like one user saves many pages and implement it like this class Page(models.Model): ... category = models.ForeignKey(Category, on_delete=models.CASCADE) title = models.CharField(max_length=TITLE_MAX_LENGTH) url = models.URLField() **fk = models.ForeignKey(User, on _delete=models.CASCADE)** Which if any approach is correct or otherwise, what can you suggest? -

Django admin 'view on site' returns NoReverseMatch, but urls all work from elsewhere
I posted an earlier version of this question here, but most of that has been cleared up and now I just have this one more narrow issue I can't solve: I consistently get NoReverseMatch errors when using ‘view on site’ from within the admin. This is an example of the error: NoReverseMatch at /admin/r/10/5/ Reverse for 'WorklogDetail_url' with keyword arguments '{'app_label': 'ktab', 'slug': 'hattie-and-deadline'}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: ['ktab/work/(?P[-a-zA-Z0-9_]+)/$'] However, if I type the url into the address bar myself, or click on it from ListView, it comes up just fine. I've learned that 'view on site' does not use my view, but one called 'shortcut'. I also understand that this view searches by content type and object id, rather than my kwargs or slug. I verified that both are correct in the admin's url format, like /admin/r/10/5/, but I don't know what the '/r/' stands for. Anyway, that's where I'm stuck. Your help appreciated. Thanks. -
Cannot use a slash in a variable for filtering a Django query?
While querying data for a template this is working: prev_season_gws = PlayerGW.objects.filter(player=player, season="2020/21") This is not working: previous_season = functions.previous_season # The function is returning a string of "2020/21" prev_season_gws = PlayerGW.objects.filter(player=player, season=previous_season) Why isn't it working with a variable? I also tried to wrap the previous_season variable with the str() function without success. -
Duplicate app naming issue in Django without renaming the app
I know there are a few other posts about this out there and renaming my messages app might solve the issue, but I don't want to change the name of my messages app, and the label solution from this post just returns this error instead: django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The app label 'email.messages' is not a valid Python identifier. And the above error is after adding the label and default_app_config fields to MessagesConfig like the other post suggests: class MessagesConfig(AppConfig): default_auto_field = 'django.db.models.BigAutoField' name = 'messages' label = 'email.messages' default_app_config = 'messages.apps.MessagesConfig' My INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py is as follows: INSTALLED_APPS = [ # my apps # 'accounts', 'subscribers', 'django_filters', 'accounts.apps.AccountsConfig', 'core', 'messages', # 'messages.apps.MessagesConfig', # 'email.messages', # django apps 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', ] And I'm getting this error: django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Application labels aren't unique, duplicates: messages What's the actual workaround for this (other than renaming messages to a different app name)? Thanks... -

Best practice in avoid page reload issue during payment
I have been coding a Django ecommerce project and there is a issue with page reload during payment that causes my program to crash. When the customer uses their mobile device the workflow is: Customer fills in a form with: name email some comments The form is being sent to the backend via a post. A new html page is rendered together with the payment UI embebbed in the same page. The payment UI is rendered by payment vendor's javascript code Customer enters a mobile phone number in the payment UI to allow MobilePay payment option and clicks Pay. Now another app installed on client's phone the MobilePay app opens, and the customer confirms the payment there. Immediately as the client is being diverted to this app my website generates a new page with error This web page requires data that you entered earlier in order to be properly displayed. You can send this data again, but by doing so you will repeat any action this page previously performed. Press the reload button to resubmit the data needed to load the page ERR_CACHE_MISS Then at MobilePay app once the payment is complete the client is directed back to their browser … -

Maximum size of payload sent as POST request (Django)
Say I have a Django project (not Django REST) and I have an API endpoint. I have my payload structured as data = `{"cred":"averystrongpassword","books":"['book1','book2'...]", "prices":"['100','150',...]"}` request.post("http://myapp.com/api/, data = data) right now books and prices are a length of max, say, 30 each - but this might grow to thousands. Is there a limit of byte-size a payload can contain (both from the sender i.e the requests module) and the API (Django) or does it all boil down to performance?
